15 which a house was being remodeled SEMI-MONTHLY MAGAZINE and they read: SHE TELLS HER REAL NAME. The world-famed authors of that stupendous ballad hit, Was A'ot Meant For You (pub lished by Howe and Hamlin, N. Y.), will open at Slammer stein's Varieties tonight!!! The masked empress of lady song writers, called by royalty the most beautiful of her sex, will appear under her own name and show the face that set a conti nent agog! "Say, I hope we kin get washed up early so we kin go round an ketch that act," observed the first tenor. "Quit fretting; you 've got him now, Sandy, and you can garnishee the box office for his salary," said Benny. An maybe you think I won t! re turned Sandowlina vindictively, They returned to Twenty-eighth Street, where Benny sent for Sammy Martin. "I've saw their billin'," said Sammy despondently; but as Benny talked Sammy s eyes gleamed with pleasure, and he said warmly, "Now you seem like yourself! Why, I '11 kill that act so dead they '11 be buyin Gates Ajars for 'em." "Take the whole staff to Slammer- stein's," said Benny. "Buy seats, even, to get all of them inside and well distributed. Boost every other act on the bill, so that it '11 make it more noticeable when they 're a frost I want this masked party to realize that it 's not so easy to be a riot in New York as it is coming through the tall grass. No act can get by on it 's own merits, anyway not in this burg. While she "s still sore at the H. and H. bunch, I '11 sign her for us and take her out to a nice little sup per Howe would n't buy her any thing better than domestic grape, and she can think about the difference after we 've shown her the real thing.' "It 's a pipe to git one o' them turns up in the air," exulted Sammy. Wait '11 I git to hissin'! I '11 set in a stage box pers'nally, an' trun this dame a nifty bokay, with a wire on it, you know, an' just as she gloms it I '11 pull that gits the house to laughin' an' kiddin', so no pathetic ballad 'd have a chance." Benny was deeply affected by his loyal henchman s enthusiasm, and told him so. "If I was a centipede, I 'd run every leg off for a pal like you, Ben, pro tested Sammy. He smiled as he thought of the eventful evening be fore him. Sandowlina had gone to dine and make up for her performance, Benny agreeing to call for her, so that she might view her neglectful mate and his partner. She was not yet aware of Benny 8 interest in the mask, as, knowing something of women, he feared to trust her with the secret. Love for Walter might send her to him with a warning. At eight o'clock, Sammy tele phoned that the act commenced at ten, and Benny promised to be pres ent. It was a few minutes after the hour when, with Sandowlina, he greeted the doorkeeper with two ex pensive cigars, and without further payment entered the darkened House. An usher whom he asked for a pro gram did not hear the request, but Sandowlina glanced at the stage, where a stout young man in evening dress was playing a medley of Howe and Hamlin airs on a piano, and whis pered, "That's Walter oh, my poor heart, be still!" Benny smiled grimly.' "Isn't Walter a handsome man?" asked Sandowlina. BENNY did not reply. He was look ing at Sammy, who half rose, hold ing a magnificent shower of American Beauties. A plugger in an opposite box leaned out, and he too held roses. In another was Ned Howe, and be fore him on the box rail was a fine Does the Maker Know What He is Doing? S he making six-cylinder cars because he knows how, or only because the demand created by another maker's six has forced him to it? Is he selling his car on the strength of its proved merit of the car itself? Success or Experiment? Is he equipping an intricate and doubtful self-starter that may cause you a lot of trouble, or is he using one that has years of success to its credit? Does he flop about from one type of car, one size, one price, to another as fast as the seasons change, or has he shown, by consistently producing some one standard car, that he has an established policy and a successful product? Is He Here to Stay? Is his crodit good, enabling him to command the best materials and the best equipment on the market, or must he buy only where sellers are willing to take a risk on him? Is his financial standing sound, so that you may rely upon his guarantee and his promise of service, or is he likely to be out of business within a month after you buy his car?
