THE EFFICIENT WOMAN

We hear a great deal nowadays about
the efficiency of women. In the novels Of
fifty years ago. who ever heard a woman
praised for her executive ability, force.
and energy, in the sense that 1t is used
today? The frail. delicate. helpless ideal
of womanhood has passed away. How 10
1t possible to measureup to the ideals of
modern womanhood? In the first place.
We must keep our bodies in the best pos
sible condition.

"OH, MOTHER" ASKED MARY

'Oh, Mother" asked Mary. Did
you notice Marcia's lovely complexion?
what do you suppose she does to IL?
ia give anything to have a beautiful
complexion like that" Mary sighed
in longing
4 know one reason why Marcia has
clearer skin than you have. Mary"
Mrs. Miller said smiling.
"oh. what is it?" Mary asked
eagerly.
Did you notice how slowly Marcia
ate when she was here for lunch
yesterday? You were through YOUR
lunch before she had finished her meat
and potatoes. Marcia may not know
H. but | imagine that is the main
reason why she has such a nice COM
plexion."
why, don't see how the way you
eat can effect you complexion!" Mary
said in surprise
1T does seem strange" explained
her mother. but 1t il really very sim
pie. When you do not properly chew
your food it gives too much work TO
your stomach. This requires an ex-
ira amount Of blood which Is filed
then with impurities. The result Is
mat the skin has to take up part OF
the task OF clearing the blood"
i see" said Mary. that is what
makes pmples and ugly compilations.
I'll remember it,"
Yes and ! will. too" chimed in
Bob. her brother, who had been quiet-
ly listening all the while.

IS to be at Euglish's beginning next
Thursday night. The engagement is for
four performances only. II will be the
local premiere Of a new Barrie play, one
which has caused the widest discussion,
both here and in Engalud.
Warm praise and enthusiastic acclaim
were est0wed upon Hiss Chattertou dur
ing the long New York run Of Mary
Rose" William Archer the famous Lon
don critic. who attended the opening
nights both in London and New York,
declared that Miss Chatterton was SUI
perior to Miss Fay Cromptou. who created
the title role in London, and much bet
ter suited Tor the part. Miss ChattertOn's
present role is said 10 afford her splen-

delightful qualities Of acting so happily
recalled in Daddy Long Legs" Come

and Moonlight and fIOueysucEle."

NEW YORK, Dec. 31.-Arthur Hopkins,
with a transpNnted production Of a
Yiddish folk play, The Idle Inn" IA
miliar to those who seek the unique
wherever It may be presented, offered the
event of interest last week The Jewish
Art Theater presented this play in the
original with Ben Ami two years age,
and last year this player came under
the management of Mr.. Hopkins.
The play has heen translated into the
English language, and last week English
speaking playgoers had their chance to
see the play and the original player. II
was the least interesting of all the plays
that have come from Mr.. Hopkins office
this year. Whether the play lost in
monies were unfathomable to American
audiences, the fact remains that
neither the play nor the player won the
success 1t was predicted for both. There
is much color to the play, and some Of
the scenes were intensely interesting, es-
pecially the second act given over the
merrymaking at a Hebrew wedding, but
thereafter it dragged and lacked inter
est. The story is a simple one, Of
daughter welded to a man against her
will and being carried off by q horse
thief who had woDed her in Petrucio
fashion. The cast was a large one, the
scenic effects by Robert Edmond Jones
in the main satisfying and the color eff
fects interesting. But It is not q play
