Constant Attendant at Play was 1 Bound to Be on Hand When ' Brrlng Wile Was Caught by Husband. I A problem play was being pro duced in Chicago. One evening it was discovered lhat a certain man, evidently from the rural dis trict, had attended the play six nights in succession and always sat well down in front. Each night he leaned forward eagerly in his seat and drank in the words of the drama. These facts were communicated to the theater press agent, who scented a good story. Approach ing the interested spectator be tween the acts, he apologized for his intrusion and said : "Would you mind telling me just why you are so interested in this play ? Do you know some member of the cast?" "No," said the man from the ouilands. "Thai ain'l il. Bui I'll tell you about il. You know the scene in the private room of the resiaurant, where the dark man and the other man's wife get up and leave by the left-hand door iust a moment before the woman's husband enters by the right-hand door?" "Yes," said the press agent ex pectantly. "Well," said the interested spec tator, "some night the husband's going to come in before ihey leave.'1 Children Ory FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA Norfolk . .

'Wh, V'uU Mutual uuglil lu be thankful thai you do not live in foreign countries, where they yoke up women with mules and make them pull together," said a rough opponent to woman sutl'rage 10 a gentle, but strong-minded sultra gist.
