Ouyer and O'Nell are slated with the stronge: t and cleverest comedy duos In the profession. Ouyer Is the orig inator of the clever specialty that Is a feature of "Babes In Toyland," and his act as will be presented this week at the Casino promises to be the laughing hit of the season. Stuart Barnes, the "Chesterfield of Vaudeville," will remain for another week. Barnes Is without a doubt the most refined entertainer In his class today.

The play Is so well and fa vorably known here that It Is but necessary to announce Its coming which Is sufficient to excite public In terest among those who appreciate and enjoy high class comedy. Wife of Millionaire Undergoes Operation JESSIE AND JERUSHIE By VIRGINIA SCOTT ALLEN. "Jerush|e, If we Just didn't have the the most desirable place In the whole dishes to wash we would be happy. I’d stream. Soon all four were seated on rather cut wood any day than wash, ' wash, wash.” After a pause she added, very conclusively; "J wlsht I wux boy, anyhow." Well, I'd rather bo a grown lady; then I would not have a thing to do, les’n I wanted to—and I know I'd never want 'er wash dishes.” "YVlshln' aln'L washln' dishes, so If we are a-going to the sleddln’ hill to try our new boards we'd as w#ll clear olt this table and wash these dishes.” Forthwith Jerushle and Jessie pulled themselves together, yawned and stretched, and began their distasteful task, their tongues all the while as busy as their hands. Soon \he table was cleared, and the dishes carried to the kitchen In the yard, ready to be washed. Jess carried the dlshpan to the atove, and by standing on her tip toes reached the handle of the tea kettle and poured out the hot water, then placed the pan on a low "stool- bottom" and began her task, each dish being handed Jerushle, who dried It and put It on the kitchen table. Pres ently Jessie asked; "Jerushle, did you ever count how- many times we have these old dishes,to wush? Well, we have them to wash and dry three times every day, and there are—how many days In the year —J00; well, .three hundred times J"— "But there's 365 days in the year, Jess, 'cause I remember I had to stay In on that last year.” to compute In their heads, so Jerushle dropped her dish towel, and taking a coal from the stove, began the process of multiplication on the kitchen wall. The result Jerusb was unable to read. However, they could readily tell that It was In the thousands. And It was enor mous. "Jerushle, don't It make you tired to think about It?” Jerush, who had left the kitchen with her nandi full of dishes, carrying them back to the din ing room, answered half way the walk; "Well, I reckon." When the last dish had been dried, and Jessie was washing the pan, two boys. In blue overalls and wide straw hats, bounced Into the kitchen. "Jess, i want my fish pole; where Is It? You know where It Is." "You're craxy; it ain't my day to keep up with your flxhin' pole." "You’d Just as well stop your foolin', for If you don't get It I am going to tell ma." -Po’ little 'Innle,' he's lost his fish pole. Hush little baby, don't you cry, you'll find your fish pole by and by." Jess well knew that little tune was an open declaration of war, but the greatest delight of her life was to tease. "Jerushle, have you had my fishhook? I left it In the corner In the dining room yesterday, and now it's gone. Dick said he ain't had It, and you know where It Is, and Jess does, too.” “Bam. you needn’t Judge everybody by yourself; 'cause you hide our dolls you needn't think we hide your ax and fishhooks." "Jess, If you'll tell me where It Is I'll take you to the new grapevine I found." Now, Jess and Dick were the best of friends, and if It hpd been Dick's fish ing pole she would Immediately have made some effort to find It, but Sam- top of the log with rods and lines fish ing. Quiet reigned, the silence broken <5nly by the trill of a bird, or the saucy bark of a squirrel, or the caw of a crow as he flew overhead. . Far In the distance could be heard the negroes singing and keeping tune with their hoes. The water below them gurgled as the fish flirted with their hooks. "H'sh, h'sh. I got a bite; be still," exclaimed Sam. "All you ever get Is bites." "If that’s what you call a bite, yes!” And he triumphantly threw a small "sucker" In Jess' lap. She Jumped and shrugged her shoulders. However, de termined not to be outdone, shp pulled the fish off the hook, exclaiming: "Ain't he cute?” ' "I wonder If you ever saw anything that wasn't cute!" "I've seen you, Sam." It wasn't long before they began to play In the creek. Of course, their hands were never busy unless their tongues were. "Well," began Jess, "we can't have many more good times. 11 ust think, school begins In Just three weeks! Sometimes I wish 1 was Adam or Eve, then I wouldn't have to go to school, 'cause there wouldn't be nothin' to study." This was received with many sighs. School was discussed from "A to Ix- xard." Doubtless the poor teacher would have smiled had she heard the criticism passed upon her. The sun had begun to drop behind the hills when th^y prepared to quit their elevated perch. Slowly they gathered 3 p their fishing tackle, slung their poles cross their shoulders, and began the walk homeward. Several stops were made before they reached home. Bon nets, hats and all were filled full of wild grapes. These were thrown at th« feet of their devoted queen, the one person that they all Joined In serving > and adoring—mother.

He was allowed a prelim- her assistance li} hunting the fishhook Inary trial Friday, and when the little revenge was too nweet. The kitchen windows were closed. 8am and Dick mechanically followed Jerush and Jess out Into the yard, where the latter picked up their new "sledding boards” that were resting be side the kitchen steps. Two faded calico bonnets dangling on the sturdy little shoulders were silently pulled over the faces of their owners. As a matter of course Jess and Je rush knew precisely where that fish R ole was, but It was Jess’ plan to keep er victims In suspense as long as pos sible. She fully Intended to reveal Its hiding place before she went to play, so she, being very Industrious all of a sud den. swept the dining room and the hall, wasned her face and brushed her hair, all the while discussing with Je rush where would be the best place for their doll house, outright Ignoring Sam and Dick, who were never out of ear shot. Dick was making a pretence of hunting the rod, and Sam was—quar relling. All four had stood the "silence” of the result as long as possible, and Sam's patience being worn and thread bare, he promlned he would do any thing If Jess would tell him where hfa lost hook w’a*. 'That's a bargain. Now hold up your right hand, croa* your heart— now come on.” She led the way back to the kitchen door, she stooped down, reached upon the sill and brought forth the treasure. ‘•Now, you can have this If we can go a-ffshln’ with you, and that you'll stay In the kitchen with ui when we wash the dishes tonight.” Since the burdening oath, the held- up hand and crossed heart had been made, the term* were assented to. and four apparently happy youngster* were seen wending their way to the pasture to fish. The favorite fishing spot in the creek was In the far end of the pasture—here Jerush and Jess were never allowed to go unless accompanied by the boys. A very 'large log had fallen across the creek here, and an unusually large hole made it Indeed 10-vear-old girl was taken In evidence and Identlffed him as being the one who had committed the crime, he was found guilty and remanded to Jail to await trial in the superior court, which will convene In October.
