PRISCILLA MADE GOOD IMPRESSION Pretty Musical Comedy Presented Pleasingly to a Large Audience. PARTS WERE WELL TAKEN MUSIC WAS TUNEFUL AND CATCHY AND THE LINES EXCEPTIONALLY CLEVER- TO BE REPEATED TONIGHT. With sweet music, a romantic love story for a plot, and an occasional line of comedy, "Priscilla," the home talent production as presented at the Gennett theater last evening proved a winsome play. There is but little life and action about the play and the performers were handicapped as the result. Too many of them had too little to do. But it pleased the audience, which was more interested in the individuals in the cast and chorus than in the' lines and everyone pronounced it equal to the high standard of local home talent affairs. ."Priscilla" is different from the rollicking comedies that have been used locally heretofore, different in many ways some of them better and others that could afford improvement. On the whole Is it a very pleasing effort. . ,. , i v Excellent Chorus. The show was put on under the direction of Edward Taylor, of Indianapolis. The chorus included about fifty voices fcnd was one of the best that has appea d in productions of the kind. The y ung ladies' chorus is especially excellent. Occasionally a male voice could be heard. But as in most other shows, it is upon, the work of the principals that it depends for success. And in "Priscilla," it is this individual acting that redeems it. Each one of the leading actors possesses a splendid voice. . The songs were somewhat difficult to render, but there was not a false tone sounded. The story Is that of the Puritan Maid "Priscilla," John Alden and Miles Standish. Other characters of the village were repre sented and provided the comedy part. In some places the lines were very clever and contained considerable hu mor. Miss Kaufman Pleased. Miss Marie Kaufman made a delightful Priscilla. Her excellent voice, which is well known, stood her in good stead. Her acting was appropriate to the part. As Resignation, Miss Juliet Swayne was not the least bit resigned It was she who did more than any oth er to keep the sleepy balls .away. Miss Swayne Is admirable in whatever kind of part is assigned her. Her team mate, George Smith, as Hatebad Higgins, shared with her in the applause. Without these two characters. "Pris cilla" would have had to establish its right to be called a comedy by some other means. Ira Law. who appeared in the part of the lover John Alden to plead for his militant friend Standish and himself be accepted, possesses one of the sweetest and at the same time richest tenor voices that had ever been heard here either in professional or amateur production. Mr. Law is a polished actor, as well. K His work was magnetic and he received repeated encores after singing his love songs. Allan Grimes was a capable Miles Standish. He had the swaggering bravado of the warrior bold and a voice that harmonized well with the others. He had the vigor of the characteristic Miles and this helped in the aggregate. From Terre Haute. Messrs. Law and Grimes are residents of Terre Haute. Mr. Smith is from New Castle. The other principals and all members of the chorus are local talent. Each had but a small part, but it was well done. Mr. Poundstone. as Squanto. the Indian, had a pantomime part. The audience last evening wa3 large, nearly all seats having been sold. The plaj- will be repeated this evening. It is given under the auspices of and for the benefit of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Y. M. C A. Charlotte Bonbonni An amusing new bonbonniere Is In the shape of a very realistic charlotte russe and about the size of that airy dainty. The top of the charlotte lifts away, disclosing the candy box. A fun loving Lcstess bought souvenirs fa this form for all the guests at a luncbeor Tfcey were filled with goodies and pasi by the maid, looking, until ctcsely examined. like a second dessert course. The discovery of their true nature caused mach surprise and laughter.

JAPANESE HUSBANDS.

In Rising Sun Country Matrimony Is Built en Equal Rights Plan. The recent outburst of race antagonism in a Pacific coast city, directed against an American girl for marrying a Japanese, lends Interest to the public assertion that "Japanese Husbands are the best in the world, made by Mrs. Yakamlne, wife of the eminent Japanese chemist and scientist. for many years a resident of New York city. Mrs. Yakamlne was Miss Hitch, daughter , of one of the old southern families, before she met the doctor and is a stanch defender of International marriages. "No woman in the world is more protected and better cared for than th wife of a 'Japanese.' she said. "The Japanese husband is considerate, faith ful and patient. It Is his philosophy, his religion. He is a home loving man. and naturally he Is thoughtful of the little attentions to his home 'and fam ily. Every woman loves these little; attentions. Plenty of women prefer, kind words and the thought that they . are appreciated to diamond rings. If j a Japanese sees some little piece of I jewelry, ornament or painting he thinks his wife would like he takes it t home to her. It Is this sort of thing, ' the fact that he has thought of her during the day, that makes her nappy. "Contrast the American and the Japanese hnsband under the same circumstances. An American hnsband comes home from business tired, nervous and hungry. Something has happened to the oven or the cook has allowed the roast to burn. He Is likely to become very impatient over the delay or the spoiled dinner. Under similar circumstances does a Japanese husband lose his temper? Indeed, be does not. He says pleasantly, ont of consideration for his wife's feelings. 'Well, perhaps there are eggs in the house, and, after all, they might be better for us to eat. "If there Is anything that will Increase rather than diminish this consideration for his wife It Is the fact that Japanese women are just beginning to go Into business like their American sisters. With this change the men will realize, too, that should they not treat their wives well the women can leave them and earn their own livelihood. So far no such threats, I believe, have been put into practice, but It has been unnecessary, for It is born and bred and trained In the Japanese men as part of their religion to treat their wives with respect and courteous, thoughtful attention. "In Japan matrimony Is built on a sort of equal rights plan. Husband and wife have each his and her duties and his and her particular rights and privileges, and neither would think of encroaching on the other's well denned rights." Just a Lawyer. "Has your on had any success as a lawyer?" "Well, no; to tell the troth, be hasn't He has been practicing now for nearly eleven years, and be has never been elected to the legislature or been appointed receiver for anything or even become president of any railroad company. It begins to look as If be may have to eke out a living just practicing law." Chicago Record-Herald. Silks in Pongee, Foulards and Fancy Taffeta, grades worth up to $1.00; Sale price 53 cents per yd.

The naming by Mrs. Scott, of a supervision committee, is chief among the complaints of the lay members. ... .... NURSERY. A baby's eyes should be shaded from a strong light, especially from bright sunlight. , Hot cloths applied to the feet and to the stomach will often relieve colic much more quickly than Internal doses. Boll soft linen, towels and pnt them aside for baby's exclusive use. In drying baby after his bath rub him gently to stimulate the skin to healthy action. Dust baby lightly with a good powder. Violent noises which startle a child should be avoided, and an - Infant should under no circumstances be tossed In the air or shaken, as this treatment surely develops nervousness. After washing the baby's mouth give him a drink of boiled water. The tiny soft brushes so often given as presents to babes ' are useless, because everything used In the child's mouth should be burned. A baby should be given pure cold water two or three times a day. Its mouth should be rinsed several times a day with borax water, a teaspoon ful to a cup. This will prevent the mouth and gums from becoming sore and keep them sweet and clean. The Persistent Social Aspirant, Persistency Is ever the hallmark of the woman determined to be recognized socially, and she applies It without stint to the smallest detail of each undertaking, nagging, insisting and pushing until some part Is accomplished. So, too, do some women pursue an eligible man. never heeding the thousand and one evidences be gives of Indifference, but dodging artfully around each sign of "no Intentions and bobbing up In his path at all turns. It Is useless to argue that they do not gain their end and aim. for many times they do. In the long run society yields to the persistency of this type of woman or the man Is safely harnessed to her triumphal ear. oIcobgiaxa: - I don't like your cook book It doefta't recommend Gold Medal Flour. lauaanc
