"Now, Delia, if you'll carry th canary and this box, I'll take th satchel."

A few days sgo I tried to rail the attention of' mn to the Inconvenlenco thst they put whmen to In the theater by forcing women to get up twlr after each art, In order to let thrm pass In and out. I represented to men that when a woman goes to the theater It Is a gala occasion with her, In which she at tires herself In her heft frork, whl'i'h Is usually made of some perishable material that is ruined by men dragging over It. Also that a Woman, having taken oft hat In order to add to th comfort and pleasure of tha men In th audience Is so enou. ibered with her belongings that sh finds It extremely Inconvenient to get up after haying one settled herself In her seat. 8 he has her wrap, .her hat, her hatpins, her handkerchief, her fan, her opera glasses, her bag all to take car of, and when she haa to get up to .let a man pass sh Is forced to clutch all of these multitudinous articles and hold them up abav her head as sh flattens herself against her seat, aa th man pushes past. .... It would he bad enouxh for h'womsn to he put to (ho trouble of doing all of this once during a play, -but every woman who goes to ths theater 'has to do It from four to twenty times of an evening, because not only Is fqqi .man In the row she sits In sure to go out after every act, but there are prob ably half a dozen different men that decide to go at different time. I called attention to this because I felt sure that men did not rolls how selfish they were, nor to what real suf fering they put women by going out after every act. I mas confident that a real gentleman. If he had his thoughts diverted to th matter would secure an nd seat If he had fit.' Vitus dance or some nervous trouble that prevented him remaining quiet for a couple of hours, or that he would drink enough before the play brgan to sustain him throurh it, or take such other measures as would pre vent him from msklng a nulsano of himself to everybody to. his vicinity In the theater. It appears, however, that I was me taken In this view, and that my mild and amiable suggestions have stirred up a perfect hornet's nest of protect from the masculine theatergoing contingent. I have bn snowed under with letters from men who say that they will go out just as much as they please between acta, and that If women don't like It they can stay away from ths theaters them, selves, or go to the matinees. Home of th men call attention to women's sins In public places, and on man says, "I think for women to come to the theaters drenched In perfume that nausestes every ona about them la just as bsd aa for men to go out between th acts." Another man writes: "What annoys m Is th coming In late of th "codfish aristocracy," who make It a point never to come to th theater until after the curtain Is up. Then they stroll down th aisle to their places. Every A Fight that By FRANCES L. GARSIDE. , The greatest misfortune that can be fall a woman Is to reach the age of wrin kles and have leisure to think about them. It Is such a misfortune a woman ahould pray, "Lord, grant when the crow's feet show that I will be so occu pied using my feet In the service of oth ers I won't have time to notice them." Mrs. Lysander John Appleton has the wrinkles, which Is snnoylng, and also the leisure, which makes of tha wrinkles a tragedy, Jler struggles to become young again are as pitiful as those a llfe-lovtng man makes on hi deathbed to get well. And as futll. Sh recently read that If a woman took an hour' rest every afternoon, she would within a few weeks be as young and handsome aa shs ever was, and Mrs. Lysander John decided to try It. &he flew from on taak to another to get her work done, and at I o'clock, tired and breathless, went to her room to reoelve her first instalment of youth and beauty. She darkened the room, lay on her bed. and filled her mind with Beautiful Thoughts. Ilelng a woman this was easy to do, but If it had been Lysander John It would have been Impossible- Just as her mind was teeming with Beautiful V ... '.-.''' ' '. - -.;" ' ''' '''("'.' ',' - ''.' 11 e 3 body In th row must rise to let them In, thus blocking the view for st least six rows, and distracting everybody's atten tion. I think women are Invariably th late comers, and that It -Is Just aa mucn of a nuisance as for men to go out be tween the acts." Shake brothera, I heartily agrea with you both. What we need Is a oensor Xor the theater . who will take! out the over-perfumed lady ' and' - dis infect her. snd strong-armed usher who will forcibly prevent peopd who arrive late at the theater from taking their seats until after th act Is finished... Also there Is a crying call for some-' body with a lariat who will choke Into silence those garrulous Individuals who go to the theater to converse about their family affairs, or who feel called upon to explain th plot of a play to their companion, or who Indulge themselve In humming the airs of an opera. The truth Is there Is no better field for the display of altruism than th theater, for our pleasure In It depend no less upon th conduct of our neigh bors than It does Upon th excellence of the production an .th stage. - In. vain does a Caruso sing, or a Marlow charm, or a Rose 8tahl seek to make us laughi If th man behind us I singing In 'our ear, or th woman to th right of up la' reeking with patchouli, or th man to th left of us tears our frocks and stampa upon our toes six times during an even ing. Perhaps, as a whole, w do not con sider Just what tha theater stands for In general life. Of course, to people' who are rich, and who can go half a doseit times to see the same play If they want to, It makes no particular dlfferenc if their evening 'at th plaj) la spoiled by their neighbor. But to th majority .of us, who hava ' limited means, theater going is ths ona little luxury, th occa sional treat, for which w save up, and deny ourselves, and to hava thl festival ruined by the thoughtlessness and selfish ness of others la nothing short of tragedy. . ' Bo I appeal to all men and women to put Into practice th golden rule at tha theater, and do aa you would b done, by. If you are a man, don't tortura women by going out between acts. - If you are a woman, don't disgust men1 by scenting yourself up so that you of-j fend their nostrils. - - ; If you can't go to th theater before, tha opening of a play, wait until after th first act before you take your seat. instead of spoiling th opening scene for whol rows Of people. , If you are a commuter and -hava to leave In th middle of th last act, t and seats, so that you won't ruin tha climax of th play for everybody about you when you get up to go. ' Don't make a battering-ram of your knees for the person who sits In front of you. Few people enjoy having a tattoo played on their spinal column. Don't talk during tha act If you'v, got to converse, stay at home. Don't hum along. -w ith th artist on tha stsge. Th people about you dl-ln't pay out their money to hear you sing. Just remember that If you do anything' to disturb th comfort of th people about you you hava stolen th price of tuslr, tickets. Just as much aa If you had put I your hand In their pockets and taken th money. I And to rob reople of pleasure I wora than pilfering their cash. is Never Won j Thoughts, a dark suspicion .crossed her brain that something waa lacking. Bh thought and thought and thought, and at last she remembered. The nose. The book had given tha pofie for perfect relaxation, .and , sha couldn't remember if her feet were to be higher than her head, If she were to 11: on her face, or If she wer to cross her; fingers. There was only on thing to do; She must find the book. And this ex plains why she turned th house upald down, and was still looking at three, still turning things upside down at four, and still rummaging at five, and why Lysan-! dar John found a cold stove and a warm wife when he cam home for dinner at six. It also explains why th Appleton horn Is always upset, snd why Mr. Ap pleton Is not any younger. . She hasn't yet found the book. "I find,'' said Mrs. Appleton, who is aa honest woman, "that when I get on mr rouge, powder, link ssusage puffs and aa expression of tranquillity, I look s young ss Si, but when I run to fires in the night without any previous preparation I look at.leaat 0. I have also found that tha only part of these beauty directions of which, a man approves are the Beautiful Thoughts. They do not cost a dollar a bottle."
