"THE HONEYMOON LIMITED.
"The Honeymoon Limited." Oi,e of
newest of the 1919 type of musical
comedies, -will be seen at the Academy,
Of Music matinee and night on tonaor
row. Chas. F. Tale, the sponser. is well
known in his particular field through
his productions of '"The Hawaiiair
Butterfly," "The Girl From McKayis"..
' etc. It is said that "The Honeymoon
Limited" is the biggest popular price
musical atraction on the road and
judging: from inspiring reports that
"have preceded it, it is altogether prob
able that it wilj establish a record
whereby others in the future will be
judged. "The Honeymoon Limited" is
heralded as a "high speed" musical
comedy.
The opening is called "A Trip to
palm Beach," while the closing scene
;is the Metropolitan roof garden, New
York city, showing the Brooklyn
Bridge at midnight. The scenery is
bright and new and staged sumptuous
ly. The costuming of the principals
and chorus is declared to be most
pleasing. The matinee prices are 50
cents and 75 cents. Night 5 0 cents to'
$1. Tickets are selling at Elvington's,
"PARLOR, BEDROOM AXD BATH".
Few farces have achieved the ex-"
traordinary success of "Parlor, Bed
room and Bath," the famous comedy
which A. H. Woods will present at the
Academy of Music on ne,xt "Wednes
day. February 19, direct from a year's
run in New York and Chicago. The
success, of the piece in both cities is
a matter of theatrical history. It was
one of the few plays that survived the
withering New York heat and ran well
into the summer. The New York
Evening Mail called it, "two hotrrs of
laughter." The New York Tribune
enthusiastically declared thatjt had
"more fizz than 'Fair and "Warmer' ".
"Parlor. 'Bedroom and Bath" contains
what both critics, and ; play-goers de
clare is one of .the most novel and
amusnig ideas ever. embodied in a
comedy. ' ..v.
The notable cast includes Eda Ann
Luke, Homer Barton Marguerite Mc
Nulty, Noette Ajmes Eleanor Martin,
Gertrude Webster Violet Barney-,
Frank F. Moore, Ryder Keane, George
WillianfSk Arthur Sherwood. Prices

I was singing a-song called "When

a few days before that by sustaining
a note, the refrain, which was a pretty

lines. There were a few friends pres
