That - is one of the reasons why "Nobody Home" the musical comedy de luxe hich John P.

Now she has every rea son to be happy for the comedy has been more than repeating its former successes. During her stay in New York last season Miss Adams was forced to shelve all her other works in favor of "The Little Minister" and instead of giving it for three weeks? she had to give it for nine. There was little doubt that the play could have duplicated its original run of a year in New York, such was the favor with which it was greeted. Miss Adams is due at the Academy of Music on Thursday, November 23, and it is in "The Little Minister" that she is to be seen. In the comedy the actress will' again enact Lady Babbie, the fun-loving young woman who caused the little m:nlster of the church in Thrums to fall in love with her without his ever suspecting that she was other than. a gypsy and not a fine lady.

THE SPECTRE OF SPINSTERHOOD What a, terrible fate some girls think spinsterhood to bo. dying an "old maid." There could be nothing worse. How very, very silly this thought really becomes when we think ;i,mi, it Why, some of the greatest and most noble women in the world never iii;in i(., In fact, one of the women whom I love very dearly is now nenrinu fniv and I am sure marriage never entered her head. It is not because sh-'is not popular with the men. They delight In talking with her, and some , n,P best men in her set would be happy to make her a mate if she would in,, consent. And wise they are, too, for a charming and delightful li-pni;iic si,., would be. Mother and she were school-chums, and the tales of her youns life wo,,,! suggest great popularity on her part. She never met the man for wlmni she was willing to sacrifice her career, that is all. Frankly, if she had mi r liim she would have taken the marriage xows and become the cornerstone of a happy family. The girl who knowingly refuses the man whom she loves is not the pirl to be imitated. In my belief she is doing a great wrong. But the Kirl W, marries the first man who comes along simply in the dread of hrnniinK an "Old maid" is very stupid indeed. To be perfectly honest with you, dear friends, it is my intention lo marry but. not a man whom I do not love. Nothing would please me more lii;m to have a happy home of my own, made bright by the innocent f rices of little children. If I ever meet a man whom I love dearly enough (his wond-rl'j! responsibility will be mine. If not then I will resign myself to die an "old maid." Don't let the phrase "on the shelf," have any terrors. For the ar,e w hen a girl was measured by the number of beaux in her train has liapjiily i:ihxp.

This play is "The Little Minis ter" "and it is wonderful the amount of affection people have for the work as expressed in their recollections of it.

BLANCHE SWEET IN "THE STORM.': Blanche Sweet will be seen at the Grand tomorrow, in the Jesse L. Lasky production of "The-Storm," a thrilling Paramount drama written especially for her by Le'ghton Os mun, and produced for the Lasky Co., by Frank Reicher. Miss Sweet has becrn seen in many roles, but in "The Storm" she appears as a half wild, fun-loving daughter of a retired professor who is so sub merged in his studies that he permits istry. The two men discover Natalie, ! who is more or less a child of nature, ! 'and they both fall in love with her. j Fielding being called back to the city oh business, leaves a clear field for Avery. While engaged in teaching j religion to Natalie, the two gradually i fall in love. One time they are ma- J rooned over night by a storm in a hut on an island. "Natalie, the hexM morning, realises that Avery does not V love her, and refuses to marry him. He returns to the city and is ordained vdj "nto the ministry, while Natalie, with her secret, returns to her father. i Fielding returns the next summer, falls in love with Natalie, and his proposal of marriage is finally accep-: teck His friends, Avery, is called upon to preside' at the wedding. ; How the affairs are straightened TOMORROW George Kleine Presents linois Infantry, and years.
