at a loss to subdue fter. The old man
wanted to get her married and a lot
of the fellows came a-wooing, but
Katherine would have none of their
“mush talk,” and papa grew discour
aged of getting her off of his hands.
But soon along came a dashing fel
low, named Petruchio, who had some
temper of his own, and he took the
contract to tame the shrew, and be
lieve me, he did it, but it took stren
uous methods. He used the system
that the other suitors had thought all
wrong—he disagreed with Kittie
every time she said anything and the
way he found fault with everything*
•was a caution. By the way, I forgot
to mention that he had married the
vixer previously to taming her,
she having proved captive to
his charms, ao several years

female, who had been very obstinate
like the other Katherine, so said her
papa, and her trouble was that she
had refused to go to bed at 9 p. m.,
when the old man requested her to do
so. My, my! what a row she raised,
so it is related and her father was
forced to call a cop. The finale was
a ten-dollar fine for Katherine.

“Polly of the Circus” has demo
strated its right to the title of the
mqpt successful American comedy ol'
the day. It has enjoyed the longest
run of all the dramatic productions
which visited Broadway, and this sea
son its engagements in the leading
metropolitan centers of the country
have been little short of phenomenal.
The play develops a story that is
fresh, original, close to the soil, true
to human nature, and appealing to
the best instinct of human nature. In
its finely sympathetic quality it re
minds one of Charles Dickens, than
whom there was no closer student of
the human heart. The people it deals
with are simple, clean-hearted souls
—people of a small town in the m d-
iaw’ the greatest melodrama I ever
... ! forgot that
. . ..» a melodrama. Forgot that it
was a play even, and saw it as a
cross-section of real life, full of
truths, facts. If ever there was a real
American play it is it.”

THE CONTINENTAL AID ASSOCIATION
R. A. PHILLIPS, Superintendent
ican knows. The play
Frederic Thompson
“Brewster’s Millions, “Via Wireless,"
a startling drama depicting wireless
telegraphy at sea; also the great ser
mon play, “A Fool There Was.” Mr.
Thompson, who produced the pleasing
and wholesome “Folly of the Circus,”
is the founder and builder of the New
York Hippodrome, the most famous
Luna Park, christened “The Heart
Coney Island,” is another Thompson
triumph. The story of “Polly of the
Circus” is a simple one, an original
setting, a new telling of a story as
the hills and yet forever young
and beautiful. The scene of the play
laid in a small town in the mi Idle
west, such a little town made up of
homely, honest people as most of us
know and many of us have loved. A
circus has come to to^vn, and Polly,
the bareback rider, has been thrown
and hurt.
Polly is a true daughter of the cir
cus. She knows no life beyond that
of the tent. An accident brings her
into the home of a clergyman. She
does not undei stand her new sur
roundings, while her unsophisticated
worldliness appeals to the minister
from the Sjst moment he sits by the
side of the injured girl. The play
from that moment is worked out along
thoroughly simple and legitimate
lines. Polly wins the heart of the
minister and learns to love him. She
has no desire to return to her former
life. But gossiping neighbors tell her
hat her continued presence in the
minister’s house will cost him his pas
torate. She go*s back to the tent and
the sawdust ring, where the clergy
man later finds her and the ’difficul
ties are explained away. The last
tableaux shows the reunited lovers
standing on the deserted site of the
circus grounds watching the wagons
disappearing across the hills.
In the last act is shown a three-
ring circus in active operation with
an imposing array of performers.
“Polly of the Circus” is a play of
the circus and of real country
which portrays and depicts realism of
the tried and true type. Among the
many and important features of the
play are circus scenes. The first
shows the “pad room.” The “pad”
room is a place where the circus ac
tors limber up before they enter the
sawdust ring. The second scene shows
the interior of the circus, where for
ten minutes the “real” thing is pre
sented in order to give “Polly” a
chance to rush into the ring and faint.
Horses arc galloping around the ring
—a regulation circus ring in every
partieular—the tumblers, acrobats
and clowns arc all working as if their
lives depended on their efforts, trained
ponies and dogs are all in the picture
—and, for ten minutes, a real circus
on the stage of a theater. It seems
a great deal of trouble to take for
one short Rtagc picture—yet it is the
rnoat realistic scene ever produced on
the stage. The third scene is one
that shows the circus leaving the
‘Mote” after the night’s performance,
which is the best mechanical effect
that has ever been shown. This is
the same production that played at
the Liberty theater, New York City,
for one solid year.
“Within the Law”
Irvin S. Cobb, of the Saturday
Everting Tost, says of “Within the
Law” that is to be seen at the Co
lonial very soon; “I call ‘Within the
Coming Soon.
“Broadway Jones” proved to be the j Jj,
biggest success New York has known
in many years, and the press was
unanimous in saying that Goo. M. Co
nan had given his best effort in this
play. Among the muny flatten.'. ••

“Officer 666,” when it appeared in
New York and Chicago, was accorded
the most flattering expressions of ap
proval by both the press and public.
It lived up to the prediction of its
censors by recording the longest runs
ever registered in either cities named
for a play of its class, and now that
we are to see the famous policeman
at the Colonial as an early attraction,
interest in the piece has been further
aroused.

thing we’re trying td give

Good service involves
knowing what you ought
to have in matters of quality; it means
seeing that you get the best possible value

course, pricing the goods so we.pan give
that sort of service-
It means style, too; and good fit It
means having clothes that will fit such
