11 HEN I GO HOME.
It comes to me often in silence,
When the firelight sputters low,
Wh.en the black uncertain shadows
Seem wreaths of the long ago.
Always with throbs of heartache
That thrill each pulsive vein,
Come the old, unquiet longing
For the space of some again.
I'm sick of the roar of the cities
And of faces old and strange,
I know'where there’s warmth of wel
come, . , «,
And my yearning fancies range **
Back to the dear old homestead
With an aching sense of pain,
But there’ll be joy in the coming
When I go home again.
When I go home again! There’s
music
That may never die away,
And it seems that band of angels
On a mystic harp to play
Have, touched with a yearning sad
ness
On a beautiful broken strain,
To which is my fond heart’s wording—
When I go home again.
Outside of my darkening window
Is the great world’s crash and din,
And slowly the autumn's shadows
Come drifting—drifting in.
Sobbing, the night winds murmur
To the splash of the autumn, rain,
But I dream o fthe glorious greeting
When I go home again.
—Eugene Field.

As Wives Can

BERLIN, Feb. 16. —The authorities
have announced that the wives of for
eign diplomats in the capital may use
their own or rented automobiles for
at y purpose whatever—shopping, call
ing, pleasure driving.
Private automobiles in Berlin have,
ever since last March, been so extrem
ely limited as to be almost non-exist

ing in the public service have been
alolw.ed to run their machines solely
for business purposes.
Consequently the sight of luxurious
limousines carrying the diplomatic la
dies to afternoon teas and to Unter den
Linden shops has greatly aroused some
people, and complaints have poured in
on Police President von Jagow.
The latter has dashed-all the hopes
of the complainers by ruling that at-

THEREOF BECKY
IT ALCAZIIFIjmSDAY
“The Case of Becky,” in which Jesse
L. Lasky presents Miss Blanche Sweet
in the stellar role, to be shown at the
Alcazar Thursday, is one of the great
est dramatic successes ever produced
by David Belasco, by whose consent
and sanction the picturization was
made.
Miss Sweet is appearing exclusively
m the photo-drama productions of the
Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play company.
Following her recent riumphant suc
cess in "The Secret Orchard,” she now
appears in her most important produc
tion. In “The Case of Becky," Miss
Sweet assumes a dual personality, that
of a young woman stamped by a pre
natal influence with two characters,
one pleasing and happy, the other
( mean and vicious. These two person
alities, in the one person, struggle
against each other for mastery.
Throughout the piay is a theme of mys
ticism and hypnotism, subjects that are
handled with all the skill and discre
tion at the command of the Lasky pro
ducing force.
Noted physicians and specialists are
attracted by the strange "Case of
Becky.” In the end, through a combi
nation of science and love’s powerful
might, the hated personality is con
quered. The scenes of the play are
modern; the characters persons of to
day.
