Since "The Mikado's" first presen ation in London in '85 it has been a lassie of the musical stage. It is by far the funniest, brightest nd wittiest as to book and lyrics, the nost tuneful a3 to score, and to say ha it is the best of all such produc ions is not too much.

Lee Daly in the comedy role is exceedingly funny and the Alcazar company as a whole is an unusually good one. COHAX COMEDY AT BAKER Stock Company in "It Pays to Ad vertise," With Extra Matinee One of the most familiar of all late comedies is Cohan & Harris' "It Pays to Advertise," in which the Bake Stock company will be seen for th week starting this afternoon, with special Thanksgiving day matinee Thursday. It is familiar because of its immense popularity and the fact that it is rounded upon a modern idea, the value of original advertisin methods. It is the story of an ex ceptionally clever young woman who is private secretary to a. millionaire soap manufacturer,, who has a spoile and useless son who absolutely re fuses to make anything of his life. rsoting that the boy seems a bit in terested and influenced by the secre tary, the old man engages her as a business proposition to try to arouse his ambition. The result is a wonder ful surprise for everyone concerned, even the boy himself. Along comes a whirlwind circus press agent full of ideas and conversation, who suggests wonderful advertising plans, and they organize a company and go into the soap business in opposition to the old man. Thio starts all kinds of things and high finance with a vengeance marks the action of the new corpora tion, which, after hitting the high and low spots, finally wins out, makes the old man come around and naturally ends in wedding bells. George Tay lor will be seen in his former success as the press agent with both Miss Felton and David Herblin in parts for which they are particularly suited. "It Pays to Advertise" will run all week at the Baker with the usual matinees and the Thursday matinee In addition.

One of the most eagerly-looked-for-ward-to plays of the season in stock is "Poilyanna" which will go on the boards at the Baker for the week fol lowing "It Pays to Advertise" and opening next Sunday matinee. Like "Daddy Long Legs" this is a comedy that appeals to old and young and one that no theater goer should miss see ing upon this, its initial appearance in Portland at popular prices. Laughter and pathos run side by side through the delightful story which everyone knows is Koine to have one of the happiest of all happy endings in spite of the tears that lie so close to the surface at times. Poilyanna is a little "poor relation wished on a rather high spirited and immaculate aunt, whom the child is shocking every hour of the day by her unseemly (in the eyes of the severe old aunt) ac tions. When she breaks into the castle of the terrible old bachelor all that happens there makes "Poilyanna" seem somewhat like a fairy tale of old.
