One of the greatest successes in
musical productions which this city
has ever known will be presented
when "The Lilac Domino" conies to
the Academy of Music tonight with
a cast which would be an attraction
even in Grand , Opera circles and a
wealth of scenic paraphernalia, a j
large chorus of lovely youug gills j
who sing and dance with all the vi- j
vacity and charm of happy youth, in j
costumes regal in magnificence and

admirable character.
Two days before the gathering Ethel was drawing a diagram of the festal
board and figuring out the different places for the guests. Her place cards
had been painted by her own nimble fingers the day before. Simple, chaste
things they were, with a pine sprig or some similar decoration on each.

she remained awake to see the different guests. After all this, naturally, the
evening was one of genuine pleasure for everybody present. Ethel's evenings
Preparations amount to a great deal in our lives, friends, no matter how
small and unimportant the thing may seem. Ethel's plan of writing down
everything she has to do is an excellent one, and I have begun to practice it
in my own work. Things are never as difficult done systematically and in the
end everything is much smoother than it would otherwise be.
"THE SMART SET."
It is predicted that there will bo
no mistaking the genuineness of
warmth in the reception tlv.'.t will be

"HE HAS KEPT US OUT OF WAR"
This is the face of a man strong, coura
geous, patient and kindly, a man
Always alert to the aspirations of his fellow
man and sympathetic toward their fulfillment;
Never complacent toward the encroachments
of privilege nor tolerant of social wrong;
Always seeking to enhance the dignity of
labor and better the state of the toiler;
Never lending an ear to the sophistry of ex
ploitation or the blandishments of expediency;
Always patient to hear and weigh, to ap
praise and analyze, and passionate to find the
way of right;
Never premature in purpose nor prejudiced
in judgment, and never headlong in decision
Such is WOODROW WILSON.
THE NEW TRUST
It is all over but the votius and then. Wilson for Four Years More!
Four years more of peace aud prosperity while the wheels of the nation
drive on toward our destined goal World Leadership!
That is to be our destiny.
Nothing: can stop it but a return to the reactionary party which for
forty years saved its bosses bat-on while the people, the great American
people, struggled onward toward individual and collective freedom.
Yes. the nation came into its own not because but in spite of the Re
publican Party. It was the American people who cleared the forests, drained
the swamps, blazed the trails, opci ed the mines, dug the coal and the gold, made
the prairies .'nto wheat and corn fields, and fenced in the great plains for ealtle.
The American people, sprung from the loins of men who dared and wo
men who toiled, have laid the foundation of the greatest Republic known to
history, and raised thereon the fairest flower of civilization in all the world.
All this has been done despite the handicap of Political Bosses and the
usurious toll of Predatory Interests.
While the Pioneer grew Into the Settler and the Settler became the
Farmer and yellowed the vast plains with the bearded grain and browned
them with the russet corn
While barefooted children trudged down the shady lane or over the long
hill to the little red school house to read of the wisdom of their Benjamin
Franklin, the patriotism of their Patrick Henry, the ingenuity of their Robert
Fulton, Eli Whitney, and Robert Hoe. the democracy of their Jefferson, of
the only Washington who Fathered his country, of the immortal Lincoln who
saved, and whose spirit will forever unite the nation
While these little children around the old stove sang "My Country, 'tis of
Thee, Sweet Land of Liberty"
While these same little children at night at their mother's knee learned
to bow their heads to their God who had given them birth in the Land of
the Free and the Home of the Brave
While simple men sweated and toiled on and loved their work and their
home and their country
While sweet faced mothers delved in toil and span strong men to do the
nation's work:
Greed crept forth clad in frock coats and a well distended skin and an
oily tongue, and slowly, surely, insidiously" gathered up "the fruits of the
sweat and the harvest of the fields, orchards and mines, and by special
privilege, by fraud, by bribe, by graft by trickery, by knavery, by treachery,
yes, and by treason caused themselves to become the richest clique known
in the world's history.
The core cf this clique is the perman at inner ring, the Invisible Govern
ment of the Republican Party.
This clique, disagreeing on a candidate four years -feo, fell out, and the
American People came btck into their own under the leadership of Woodrow
Wilson, who has held inviolably sacred that trust thus put into his bands
by Fate. And by the grace of God the American People propose to go on with
that tried, true, great man who trusts them because he linows they trust him.
Woodrow Wilson is a new Trust in American life greater than all oth
ers greater because Le stands for no Trust, is backed by no Trust, and is
the candidate of no Trust but is the trust of the whole America people
who love him because he has kept them out of war, honor hj for 'lis
courageous Christian humanity, and thank him for his broad statesmanship
and his fearless, intelligent leadership.
By his deeds and by his acts as well as by the enemies he has made, his "
place in the roll of American honor is secure Washington, Lincoln. Wilson.
Woodrow; Wilson deserves the vote of every man and every woman in
every state in the Unicn.
