Mr. Bowker will be cast as the husband who believes he owns everything on the farm, and who, on finding the butter and egg money, Invests it in farm land. Aa the wife who toils year after year on the farm, and who savea a little money here ard there, so her dreams of making a great lady out of her daughter, Miss Lowry has a great opportunity. The discover/ of the money between Helei Hardy and her farmer husband, Stephen Hardy, is one of the big spots of the play. Kate Hardy is the daughter. Mr Walker has permitted the Times to use the following extracts from the Llr scene of the play. It is as follows! STEVE. Yes, I would. I’m goln’ to I HELEN. I won’t let you—that’s all—l Just won't. (He rises without a word and exits Into the house. She looks distressed and anxious. In a moment he returns; in his hand the Jug in which Is the money and the dusty bunch of artificial flowers; A9 sTie sees this In hta hand, she steps back almost In terror.) Stephen! STEVE. There’s money here. I always knew you kept somethin’ in here, but It was no business of mine! That three hundred dollars is here. HELEN. (Nervously) Yes. STEVE. There’s more, too; it’s heavy! (He shakes the Jar snd the sound of the sliver is heard.) HELEN. AH that’s there is mine and Kate's. STEVE. How much? HELEN. You said Jnst now that what I kept in there wasn't any business of yours, and It ain’t. STEVE. How much ? HELEN. If rve got snv rights at allt If you’ve got any bit of reelin' left for me, or for what I ask of you, I want you to put that down. (By war of answer, he throws the srtlflclal flowers contemptuously aside, snd, turning the jug up. he pours the contents out on the table.) STEVE. (Aa he sees.) By God! HELEN. It’s just like you struck me in tbe face. (She drops Into chair, hiding her eyes with her fingers. He counts the money eagerly and with growing Joy and excitement.) STEVE. Over a thousand dollars.
