Esmond thought that he had ~ last

the same way. Cyril Maude earned more

confident after one American impress
sario had offered him n bonus of $4,000
for his play. that there was no possible
doubt about his making one out here in
the farce. 1t failed completely. After one
or two unsuccessful attempts to interest
the American public. the author and his
wife went back to London. Now. after
a decade has passed, Miss Moore has
brought the play out to try its fortunes
in Canada.
The Girls Cannot DO II.
The demand for young men in oper-
etta which made II possible for BARI
tone to earn $4,000 last year In as
many weeks. does not exist with equal
advantage for the young women who are
wasting their time giving song recitals
and trying in other ways to earn some
OF the money spent on their musical edu-
cations. One Of them has written TO tell
this department just how much more
difficult It is for the woman:
when we hear that Maggie Teyte or
some other well known singer Is ap-
pearing In operetta in London IL does
not mean that she must sing eight times

Nor win she be told that she must
reduce herself 10 a maximum weight OF
13o pounds. which Is the most now that
a producer OF musical play will allow

Quex" and "The Benefit of the Doubt"
than to any of his contemporaries. lie
was not altogether lacking in the acrid,
bitter note that always prevented the
second play Of Pinero from gaining
widespread popularity. relentlessy true
and searching as it is.
Perhaps the finest specimen OF his
skill remains THE Tyranny of Tears"
1t is faithful study OF the truly
womanly woman who carries her point
always by her most intensely femi-
nine weapon. The play is as light as
gossamer but as solidly built as cathe-
dral. The breakfast scene between the
two men friends in the play Is as fine
as any passage OF contemporary drama.
In any country that treated its drama
as an art and maintained n shrine for the
preservation Of the finest products this
comedy OF Chambers would be kept for
the entertainment OF subsequent genera
tions. just as the Comedle Francaise
presents the works Of Augler and Pail
leron TO every age Of playgoer.
But the spirit Of English speaking
countries seems 10 be opposed to such
playhouses. so there Is nothing but the
caprice OF popular stars TO bring these
pieces out Of their obscurity once their
first popularity has passed.
The last OF Mr.. Chambers's plays to
be seen here THE Saving Grace" was
genuine specimen OF English comedy.
Something in the character or the more
or less INSCRIPTIONS hero interfered
with the complete popular success OF the
piece here, but II was nevertheless
delightful specimen Of the pure school
or comedy. The Chambers plays were
not always ne well liked IN this coun-
try as they were abroad. although the
melodramas. such as Captain Swift
and "The Fatal Card" enjoyed their
purely theatrical success everywhere. IT
was when Mr.. Chambers approached
life that he seemed less appreciable by
our public. This difference In taste had
its influence even In "Passersby." which
knew much greater popularity in Lon
don than Il ever did at the Criterion
Theatre here.
But Mr.. Chambers's skill as a writer
of comedy was not dependent on the
opinion OF a public for which he was
not, in the first place. writing his views
and studies Of English life. lie was
master In his field and his death re-
moves a writer who had triumphed In
a difficult school OF drama.

In these scenes of solicitation IL al

Moliere's character in the second act

be wasted, according to government

The modern Indian needs little
counsehng as to what TO do with the
annuity. On the reservations the
Indians make most Of their W

goes toward purchase Of shoes or
gloves.
Some OF the older Indians who have
not yet learned the value of a dollar
are careless with their annual allot-

are just as poor as ever shortly after
they get outside of the reservation to
