To the Manufacturer Who Wants to
Come Into the Chicago Market.

Every national advertiser must sooner or
later into the Chicago Market.
Chicago is the Hub of territorial Wheel
that includes some sixteen million people in the
6ue central states
The Wheel is often called The Chicago Ter
ritory. The Hub is called The Chicago Market
proper.
This Hub or The Chicago Market itself has
three million people concentrated in an area of
two hundred square miles, or about one-fifth of
the total population of the five states represented
by The Chicago Territory
Some advertisers coming into this central
market for the first time are persuaded to go
after the great territorial Wheel without giving
very much attention to the Hub ITSELF
That is the history of practically every ad-
vertising failure charged against both the Chi
cago Territory and the Chicago Market itself
few big ads are thrown into some newspaper
with far-Aung circulation, and then the adver-
tiser begins running up and down the spokes of
that great territorial wheel before he accom-
plishes anything really worth while at the Hub,
which is The Chicago Market ITSELF
You can't put this great widespread Chi
cago Territory until you have put over this con-
centrated Chicago Market itself. The Wheel
won't go without the Hub.
If your product fails to find full favor in the
chicago Market itself, you will never put it over
in the widespread Chicago Territory
But if you do put your product over in the
Chicago Market itself, you will find that the
dealers and consumers alike in this great OUTLYING
Chicago Territory will know about your succes.
and will be waiting for you
Notr, is the Chicago Market proper-the
Hub-o hard market to vin?

OF dlffidcnt prince imperial for q

off from the Polish OF Gabryella Ia

last evening at the Forty eighth Street
Theater- With what entertaining re-
suits one who is unskillcd in the in
depreciation Of first night cnthus siasm
may not venture to estimate.
1t proved to be, however. a mellow
fable. bit too chatty, perhaps. but not
so lush in the humid dicton of stage
regaity as might have been expected.
1t is dressed in the ambrosial regalia
common to the erstwhile scepter set,
and so pretty was some of the Princes
clothing that it was appiaudcd by the
onlooker. Mr.. Otto Kruger imper-
sonated the decorative heir-apparent
with a becoming and colloquial reti-
ccnce; and he was gorgeous eyeful
in his robes and helmet. Miss Violet
Heming's rapturous elocution was en-
seraphic dancer and gymnast.
The chief characteristic of Mr. Kru-
gers role at the beginning is NOR
bid disincinaton to the society Of
women. The fleshly life affords him
no diversion, and he leans to dumb
bells and the horizontal bars. His
wholesome habits become matter of
jest to his evil cousin (Mr. Edward
emory), sinister inebriate who for
drunken lark engages Sonya as his
instructor in acrobatics, pretending
that she is boy. To turn the tables
ON this oily son of Saturn, the Prince

made by Miss Edith Ellis, the ending
was fearful, because the lady, instead
of becoming the princes bride, re-
nounced him for the good of his dy-
nasty and returned to the circus.
The first scene between the eccentric
prince and the ballet girl in her Co.'S
sack uniform of white is pretty cpl
sode, and Miss Heming and Mr.. Kruger
play it very we'll. She is pleasantly
boyish and sturdy in her counterfeit
and he, when he discovers the decep-
ton, is faithfully indignant, melting
later, in the observation of her mani
fold charms. She does not talk so much
in this act. Many are her adventures
while present in the palace as the
princes playmate. She resists success

acquire her, and she has CHASTITY ex-

wheezy, limping and senile as he en-
counters her in his sons apartments.

Those who saw in the title Of 1.-THE
Night Cap" covert invitation to take
either quiet nip or nap, found them
selves undeceived last night at the
Thiyty-ninth Street Theater. The
thinking cap was what they required.
Yet the intellectual pressure was not
too great. 1t is just such play as
might be expected with "The Bat"
year old, and still going strong. One
prepared for little brother to "The
Bat" as soon rs the curtain rose on a
large door of frosted glass in a room
which in every other respect repre-
scnted period style of decoration.
With this clew it was safe to conclude
that in the series of mysterious crimes

proving all things and holding fast to

shooting and the off-stage scream"
Considering the stage landmarks
available to the irst-nighter, there were
not so many mazes for his interest to
tread, but those that were virgin
jungle were exceedingly interesting.
The action of the piece takes place
at a house party, the story being con-
cerned with the two primal themes
the jealousy of a man who supposes
the host is making love to his wife, and
the necessity of doing away with the
host in order that the bank Of whicn
he is president, may not close its doors.
There is deficit at the bank and the
be collected to cover it. This official
therefore calmly requests that some
one kill him. Suicide will not do, as
the policies contain suicide clauses.
That's what all the shootin's for.
Playwrights are seldom rewarded by
actors with complete incarnation of a
character. Most writer's of plays figure
that they get about 40 per cent results.
Some actors are happy enough to make
it 20 or 80 per cent. But in the role
of Jerry Hammond, one Of the comic
relief battery, which is done by John
DAILY Murphy, the May Vokes of "The
Night Cap Guy Bolton must realize
about 100 per cent absorption.
May MARGIN shares the authorship
and shoulders all the responsibility of
production, but every line that Murphy
utters is typical Boltonese. The audi
ence enjoyed him unstintedly. in
somewhat less degree the same is true
of Jack Raphael's performance.
But the acting honors properly be-
long to Elizabeth Risdon, who gave a
sincere and distingm shed performance
in the role of the jealous mans wife.
Flora Sheffield is lovely and gives an
intelligent representation of the lead
ing womans part.

Herod the Great had passion for

his reign he was too busy establish
ing himself to indulge his passion.
Then he rehabilitated many cities. At
Jerusalem, Jericho and Caesarea, he
erected theaters, amphitheaters and
hlppodromes.r He rebuilt the temple
in Jerusalem. He even restored and
beautified cities In Syria, Asia Minor

great rising under ar-COchba. The
rebellion was stamped out with much
bloOdshed. Emperor Hadrian. In re-
building Jerusalem, changed its name
to Aelia Capitolina and decreed that
no Jew should dwell In 1t. Never
since that day has Jerusalem been a
Jewish city or Palestine Jewish
land.
AscalOn's history was naturally
trOublOus In times like these. In 14S0
b. c., say the Tel-el-Amarna tablets,
the native chiefs and Dagon-worship-
ers who ruled the city were paying
tribute to the Pharaoh Of Egypt. The
place was captured successfully by the
great Rameses H., and by King AS
surbanipal Of Assyria.
1t later became one of the five
towns of the Phllistine cOnfederacy.
Tell 1t not in Gath, publish 1t not
In the streets of Ashkelon; lest the
daughters of the Philistines rejoice"
is written In ii Samuel 30. 1t came
into the hands Of the tribe of Judah,
but 1t remained an enemy of the
Hebrews TO the last.
Ascalon long belonged to the
Romans. In the Seventh century 1t
came into possession of the Saracens.
In 1899 was fought the great battle
on the plains of Ascalon in which
the Crusaders under Godfrey de Bouil-
lon were victorious. The city was
taken and retaken during the wars OF
the Crusaders.
The end of Ascalon came in 1870,
when 1t was destroyed by the Sultan
Bibars. II was then that its harbor
was filled in. 1t was then that It be-
came a desolation.
HerOd the Great was the ruler who
beautihed Ascalon. Herod is the
family name of group OF rulers of
Palestine. The family had its origin
In Antipater, an Idumean (Edomite)
who In the last century before Christ
was made by the Romans governor OF
Edom, Judea, Samarla and Galilee
His son was Herod the Great, who was
made king of Judea and reigned from
80 to 4 b. C. 1t was Herod Antipas
son OF Herod the Great, tetrarch OF
GalIlee, who beheaded John the Bap,
tist and TO whom Jesus was sent by
plate. The Herods were Jews only
in the sense that the Edomltes were
conquered and compelled to embrace
Judaism about 1870 b. G.
Herod the Great ruled the Jews
with an iron hand, ruthlessly murder
ing all whom he considered enemies
including even the brother of his wife
Marianne. When he left his court
on dangerous mission to Rome he
left word that In the event OF his
death, Marianne should be killed also

Massacre of the Innocents."
During the World war the activities
Of the Palestine Exploration fund were
necessarily suspended. Now they have
been resumed with extraordinary sue
cess. ArchaeOlogists are uncovering
many splendid buildings of ancient
days, some of them of great lnforma-
tional value. The greatest finds have
been uncovered In Ascalon.
The Palestine Exploration fund Is
a society founded in London in 1885
for the accurate and systematic In
vestigation of the archaeology, topog-
raphy, geology and physical geogra-
ply, natural history, manners and
customs Of the Holy Land for Biblical
Illustration. A preliminary expedition
was made by Captain Wilson in the
winter of 1866. Since then no less
than eight expeditions for varying
purposes have been sent out. Since
1869 the society has issued quarterly
statement and has published several
works and maps. II maintains a
museum at its London office.
Ascalon is a desolation In the literal
meaning of the word and has been
a desolatiOn for many a year. Vegeta-
ton Is scanty. The once splendid
harbor has been filed up. The great
walls and towers that surmounted
the ridge that surrounds the city lie
In crumbled ruins. The confusion is
extraordinary; the walls and towers
appear to have been blown asunder by
powder. Yet once the city must have
been vision of beauty. Here and
there broken columns OF marble and
granite tell Of the glories Of the past.
Probably Ascalon once looked some
thing like Jaffa, making allowance
for the undermining OF that ancient
city.
Ascalon lies on the shore OF the
Mediterranean, in Judea, SO miles
southwest of Jerusalem. 1t was a
fortified city In ancient times. How
