NEW YORK, May 2.r-Sodety is
expected to turn out in full force at
the Metropolitan Opera House to
night for the production of “A Dream
of Freedom,” the suffrage pagent.
Judging from the list of box holders
the famous “Diamond Horse Show
will be quite as brilliant as it ever
wad during any opera season.
For the first time in the history
of the Mutual Musical Protective Un
ion, non-union members will sit be
side union members in the orchestra.
This results from appeals made to
officials of the union by the suffra
gists to permit some of their musical
members to aid the orchestra. Sev
eral prominent society women will
plui instruments for "Votes for Wom
en.”
Venuses and Adoni««s Selected.
Everything is in readiness to-day
for the pageant. The 2T)0 Venuses
were selected some time ago and af
ter much difficulty the Pageant Com
mittee at the eleventh hour succeed
ed in finding forty-eight Adonises to
take part in the pageant with them.
All of the participants have been ful
ly rehearsed and only await their
cues to venture forth upon the stage.
Among the women who have vol
unteered to make up part of the suf
frage orchestra ie Mrs. Theodore
Roosevelt, Jr.
Roosevelts Take Star Part.
The audience will be a brilliant one.
The Douglas' Robinsons have taken
two boxes, and Mrs. Theodore Roose
velt and the young people are ex
pected to be present. Mrs. Stanley
McCormick will entertain a box par
ty from Boston. Miss Alice Paul and
Miss Lucy Burns will be hostesses
for a congressional party from Wash
ington. Mrs. Donald Hooker, one of
the most prominent women in Mary
land, has taken a box, as has Mrs.
Susan Fitzgerald, of Boston, daugh
ter of Admiral Walker.
Col. Roosevelt, who is always a
star attraction ki New York as else
where, has consented to deliver a
speech from the stage to-night. It
is understood that the Colonel’s
speech will be strictly along suffrage
lines and that he will not once men

of the original “Mary’s
One Tenant at Lillian -Has Even
Tried to Immortalize “Beastie”
With Alarm Clock.
Mary and her little lamb may be all
right in the children’s readers, but
they are out of place in an Atlanta
apartment house.
If you don’t believe it, ask pretty
little Mary Calkins, the ld-year-old
daughter of Frederick Carey Calkins',
of the Lillian apartments, Juniper and
Eighth Streets. Mary has a lamb, a
hungry little “beastie,” which answers
to the name of “Woolly,” and she is
very indignant over the way her lamb
has been treated.
Somebody immortalized the original
Mary and her lamb in verse; resi
dents of the Lillian have tried to im
mortalize little Mary’s pet with old
shoes, alarm clocks, brushes and any
thing else that happens to- be loose
when the plaintive “Baa! Baa!” of the
lamb bursts upon stillness of the
night.
Shouldn’t Mind Its “Ba-a.”
Little Mary says the apartment
house people do not know how to
treat a lamb. They shouldn’t mind a
little thing like being awakened at 2
a. m. by a lamb who is* rriournlng for
the touch of its little mistress, she
says. Instead of growling and fuss
ing around, they should merely turn
over and say: “Ain't that dear little
lamb got a good voice?"
“The people here think ‘Woolly's’ a
goat." little Mary said this morning.
“They give him the queerest things to
eat. Almost every morning I find
piles of old shoes and things lying all
around him. ‘Woolly’ doesn’t eat shoes
1 think a man hit him with some
thing once, because one morning
'Woolly' hpd a bump on the side of
his head and he didn't want to play.
Who Gave Him the Clock?
“And one time I found an alarm
clock lying right in front of his nose.
As if ‘Woolly’ didn’t know enough to
get up without a clock! I guess the
man who threw it out of his window
was afraid ‘Woolly’ would sleep too
long* and miss his breakfast! I’d
thank the man if I knew who he was,
but I can’t find anyone who’ll say ho
sent it!”
But with all his virtues, and despite
the love of his little mistress. “Wool
ly” is doomed to an inglorious finish
possibly he jvifl form a part of a de
licious lamb stew some day. At any
rate, he must leave the apartment
house.
"Papa says Woolly makes too much
racket around here,” the little gi 1
said-, "and he says we have got to seli
him. He always bleats when I am n<>.
with him. and papa says the pejopL

BERLIN, May 2.- The German is
less afraid to die than is the Amer
ican, in the opinion of Dr. William
Mayo, of Rochester, Minn. That emi
nent surgeon to-day said that Amer
icans made the work of men in his
profession more difficult by demand
ing and recognizing only success.
"When a German is critically ill,”
said Dr Mayo, "he and his family
are willing to risk a difficult opera
tion, while an American is more
afraid to die and blames the surgeon
who can not save his life. This is
salutary, but discouraging for the
surgeon."
"What foreign nation could teach
us most in surgery?” he was asked.
"We can learn more from Ger
many than from all the other Euro
pean nations combined. It is the
only country with a national surgery.
Ours is cosmopolitan. Italy is mak
ing wonderful progress in a modest
way; in France, with a few excep
tions, the surgeons are standing still;
the young English surgeon must wait
for a position; the Gorman must work
for it. German success, therefore, is
grounded on efficiency instead of
longevity.”
Dr. Mayo witnessed two difficult
operations for cancer by the noted
Berlin surgeons, Drs. Rotter and
Buinm. He declares that the experi
ments of treating ’cancer with radium
and Roentgen rays have been dis
appointing and that the use of the
knife still is the best treatment.

Is not the Old Cosmopolitan which failed,
but the new company, with new charter, new
officers, new ideals and new cash, which bought
the assets and insurance of the old company at
public sale, and added to these assets enough
additional capital to make the new company
an absolutely sound financial institution.
Upon verification and approval by the Insurance Depart
ment of the State of Georgia, of its detailed statement of as
sets and liabilities, The Cosmopolitan Life Insurance Com
pany, of Atlanta, has been granted license of date May I,
1913, and has already actively entered the field.

these notes, and the amount thus obtained will increase the undivided profits. Neither does the above

which is free from agency charges of any kind.

the old company. With other assets not included in the fore
going, but explained above, THIS COMPANY ACTUAL

penny of charge against it, and every dollar received from its
sale has gone directly into its treasury.

it will command public confidence, are:
