HAPPY ENDING TO PLAYS.
Henry Irving Didn't Consider 1t Al
ways Necessary for Success.

Happing endings are supposed to be
the sine qua non of successful modern
plays. Yet life itself refuses to be al
ways so coerced. 1t is, therefore, inter
esting to find so great an actor as Sir
Henry Irving having given the oppo-
site opinion about his own art. II. Hes
keith Prichard confessed to having dis
cussed the question of a play with Sir
Henry and the kind of an ending it was
to have. His dicta were these
"A happy ending is not at all neces-
,"In nearly all plays a happy ending
is dragged in whereas there is one
thing which is much more Of a draw
than a happy ending, provided it be
well enough done but 1t is naturally
much harder to do.
"The most successful plays, in any
experience, are those which in the
coarse of the play gain the sympathy
of the audience for the hero, and not
only the sympathy, but also the pity;
and You will find that sacrifice is the
greatest card to play it properly.
I'm happy ending you have possibly
the relief of the moment, and in five
minutes the audience has gone away
and forgotten all about it; but sac
riiice scrifice properly written and
properly acted-will keep the members
of that same audience thinking and
pondering 1t doesn't matter how ugly
q man is--nothing really mattersif
you can get him a part which is noble
and ends in sacrifice.

have succeeded in those parts, Lon

Why George Didn't Kiss Her.

Chief Justice Taft Of the United
States supreme court. famed as an aft

nized as possessing an unusually keen
sense Of humor. is said to have told a
short story once while speaking in a
New England city that, in the opinion
of some, fairly reeked with sidesplit-
ting comedy. but was received by oth-
ers as though sermon was being
preached on cold Sunday morning.
The tale as related BY Mr.. Taft,
without attempting TO quote him ver-'
batim, was something like this: The
scene was Atlantic City and the time
100 years ago The story goes back to
the days when Atlantic City did not
have board walks, nor did society have
fancy Iimousines in which to ride
about. But the good people of that
day did have the same old moon, which
on this particular evening shone down
its mellow light ON two lovers who sat
beside the sea. With emotion, and

SPIDERS SHOW SKILL IN FIGHT.
Invader Tries to Gust Defender from
Home Former Covets.

When two or more spiders fight
there is usually good reason for the
furious attack and vigorous defense
that always follow.
It is not generally known that aft
err a certain time has elapsed spiders
become incapable Of spinning web
through lack Of sufficient material. The
glutinous substance from which the
spider spins its slender web is limited;
therefore, spiders cannot keep up the
of new snares Tor their
prey when the old are destroyed.
Very often when the web material
is exhausted they are able to avail
themselves of the web producing pow
ers of their younger or more fortunate
neighbors, and this they do without
any scruple whatsoever.
AS soon az a spiders web-construct-
ing material has become exhausted and
its last web destroyed, it usually sets
out in search of another home, and,
unless it should find one that is unoc-
cupied. a battle usually ensues, which
ends only with the retreat or death Of
the invader or defender.
Such struggle ~ intensely inter
esting, and will reveal some wonder
full tactics and skill in spider warfare.
The invader usually comes off victorl-
Gus, although in some cases the defend
err offers such a stiff fight that It IS
able to hold its own in spite OF the
attack Of the intruder, which is in des-
perate straits. !,
One curious fact is that the web
material will increase after SO long a
period and the spider will spin net
in which to cnsnare its many varieties
of prey in the form Of different spe-
cies Of insects.
Spiders that are very successful in
capturing food are often set upon by
other spiders, which have for some rea-
son not been as successful as their
neighbor. PHILADELPHIA Inquirer.

A Made to- Order Poem.

A reference librarian who was accus-

once utterly "stumped'' to answer re-

soul who liked 10 give the public what

son mentioned:

some Sunday school festival, never

WOMAN'S CLUBS SELL
ING CHRISTMAS SEALS

The Vermont Tuberculosis as
ISOLATION has received three mil
lion Christmas seals and is now
working at top speed to secure
representatives in all of the
towns in the state to take charge
Of the seals. Mrs. III. A. Slayton,
president Of the Vermont FEEDER
alton of Women's Clubs, has
written to every club in the
state asking the members to as
sist in the sale of Christmas
seals. In many towns the won
ems clubs will take the entire
charge Of the sale.
1t is planned to sell the seals
largely through the jthoof chill
dren as in former years. Last
year in number Of schools the
teacher instead of taking charge
of giving out Of supplies and re-
ceiving the money, appointed a
: committee of five Of the older
and more responsible students to
do it. This plan worked out most
satisfactorily; the work was
done outside of school hours and
the experience of keeping the
records, was of value to the COM
mittee. Towns that worked this
plan made particularly good
sales last year and the tuber-
culosis association is recon-
naending the plan to all the
towns this year
The sale Of Christmas sea Is all
over the United States OPENS on
Thanksgiving and closes Christ
mas. All the profit except five
per cent, which goes to the Ma
tional tuberculosis association is
used to support the work Of the
Vermont Tuberculosis associa
ton. Last year nine hundred
and seven thousand seals were
sold at one cent each in Vermont,
The association is going to try
to sell one million this year.

The occasion was especially interesting
because Nine. Rosina Storchio. the crea-

made her first appearance in New YORK.
1t took her long time to reach the
Western metropolis. and perhaps 1t was
unfortunate that she did not come soon

Cio-Sdn more years ago than the If
teen-year-old bride OF perfidious Pinker-
ton. Her voice must have been fresher
and sounded younger then.
Charles Dudley Warner declared that
being boy had one great advantage.
namely. that it required no experience.
The same thing might be said of girl
and particularly of a singing girl. SO
much experience made 1t hard to be
G ri again, even just for a night. Nine
Storchios vocal contribution to the even
ing's delights was worn and tremulous
and frequently OFF the pitch but her inn
personation nevertheless had genuine
merit. Charm, tenderness. pathos and
even tragedy were found in it. The
childish prattle of the first act has never
before been so beautifully done here. II
