POOR MOMMER PEACHUM FAINTS When Daughter Polly Marries for Love

Rogues they are, every one of them. There “Is not an honorable man or an honest woman" among the two dozen characters lntrodnced in Mr. Gay’s famous English ballad opera, "The Beggar’s Opera," which was revealed last night at the Murat by the original London company which was brought to this country for the limited Hew York engagement. The men are highwaymen, a lawyer, who aids In promoting and Increasing the class of suitable candidates for the gallows, a Jailer whose “hospitality” is controlled by the size of the coin placed in his palm and the women are referred to as “jades," “wenches" and other terms applied In 1720, the time period of the opera. The Peaehums have e pretty daughter named Polly who is handy in snatching a watch and is useful to her “fond” parents In their trade of combining the practice of law with the gentle art of concealing stolen goods. They bave “high hopes" for their daughter Polly. Marriage? No. What did they raise the

Question: What is “Overworked Nerves?” * Answer: Nervous Exhaustion —Neurasthenia Question : What are the symptoms T Answer: Almost as many as the victims. Question: Which symptoms predominate 7 Answer: Victim's ordinary duties cannot be successfully accomplished. The bookkeeper can't add: the seamstress can't thread her needie; the business man dreads bis office work; the wife abhors her duties ; the husband fails in his duties: all are irritable, peevish, surly and gloomy. The victim's "temper” flys off at the least provocation and unhappiness is ever present Ail this is caused by deficient metabolic processes, which, srmpiy stated, means that the "nerve food"—or nerve fluid—is not replenished, as nature requires—and the nerve force dwindles. Nerve Force is the power of your body—it is comparable to electric current Overworked nerves are just like a faulty motor Repairs must be made Cadomene is the '‘mechanic." food, and fuel that your nervous system needs A two weeks' trial will prove it, for your blood and nerves should quickly respond to this Cadomene treatment.

poor girl for? Surely a child should be useful in the parents' trade of being highwaymen. Marriage would spoil the game. Polly secretly marries Captain Macheath, head of the Maeheath gang of highwaymen. Polly disturbs the peace and quiet of her parents’ home when it is discovered that the poor dame was married. Not for money ? Heck, no, Polly married for love. When Mamma Peachum finds out that her daughter married for such an unnatural thing as love, mommer's desire for gin causes her to faint and only when her thirst is quenched can she regain sufficient spirit to view a marriage for love alone with more satisfaction. Old man Peachum decides that Polly shall murder her husband and so obtain his money. Mommer Peachum fears that Maeheath probably has two or three wives in addition to Polly. Peachum admits that this complicates the legal phase of the case. But how can Polly murder the man she loves? She argues that she must listen to the advice of her parents. "What would many a wife give to have such an opportunity?” asks the gentle Mommer Peachum of her daughter while pointing out the advantages of removing Maeheath. Peachum decides that Maeheath must be arrested and hanged. That would solve the problem. While Maeheath Is playing with numerous "married” women of the town, he is arrested, dragged away to Newgate and jailed. The jailer Lockit is the father of Lucy, also a "wife” of Maeheath. I ask it as the playwright did —what can a poor man do with two wives ? When he pleases one he displeases the other, Maeheath admits. Events lead Maeheath closer the rope. Suddenly the jailer anueouces, "Four more wives, each with a baby, await on the outside.”

Maeheath utters a sigh and mutters, “ ’TU too much,” as he is led to the gallows. While the procession is on the pluywright and the producer appear and decide that Maeheath should not meet his death, the ending be changed by the granting of a reprieve which permits Maeheath to continue his existence on the globe where he has six wives. The opera ends with the six wives, four of them with babies in their arms, dancing around a May pole. I have tried in my own way to give you, gentle reader, an idea of the delicious fun, 'quiet buffoonery, roguish wit and keen satire behind many of the delicious scenes In "The Beggar's Opera,” as It is now being presented at the Murat with a most excellent company. Sylvia Nells is the sweet and gentle Polly who shocks her dear mother by marrying for love. Mommer never heard of such a thing. Miss Nelis has a sweet voice, not strong, but clear, true and splendidly controlled. Arthur Wynn plays Peachum with a flue understanding of roguish art. Percy Healing is Mac-heath and gives the character the needed humorous and easy way of a highwayman of hearts. Fedora Roselli strikes a dramatic note in the proceedings by being one of the “wives” of Macheath. Probably the outstanding and sterling portrayal in the gallery of rogues is the Mrs. Peachum of Lena Maitland. Even her gin-soaked nose, a very red one, illuminates the stage as effectively as the footlights. Her work is of the highest order. The other members of the company are adequate and the general result is the singing of some deliciously old-fashioned songs in a way which the best of the modern American musical comedies would be proud to obtain. The orchestra Is small but splendidly trained and directed. Opinion: If you enjoy a delicious evening do not pass lip “The Beggar's Opera.” Do not be frightened away from the Murat this week for fear that it is too old-fashioned and too highbrow. This is the stuff that does so much good to those who are tired and disgusted with
