Craft triumphed and for which Ruffo
himself paid her the highest compli
ments was , Ned da, when he eans'
Tonio. He haa a large following
eagerly awaiting- his- presence in New
York with the Chicago organization
and meanwhile the great baritone
drew a capacity audience to the Hip
podrome Sunday night, where he was
assisted by that charming- young
singer, Nina Morgana, who becomes
a member of the Metropolitan Opera
company this season.
One of the new members of the Chi
cago Opera company in whom New
York has already manifested much in
terest is -Hislop. the Scotch tenor
whose sensational success at Covent
Garden induced many of the American
managers to bid for his services. In
the operatic world Hislop came un
der the banner of Herbert M. John
son, who had already secured an op
tion on the ainger before his London
success, and in concert he will be pre
sented by William Morris, Inc, who
"signed him up" upon his second ap
pearance at Covent Garden- Mr. His
lop will give all the time to recital
that he will be able to take from his
operatic work during the winter. .

Stokovski, made its second visit of
this season to New York Tuesday
eight, bringing aa an attraction Cyril
Scott, the English pianist-composer-co'nductor-writer,
for his first appear
ance in the metropolis. His name was
not unknown and interest ran high.
After the real Cyril Scott began re
vealing himself to an audience which
'may have expected to be lulled into a
lethic Btate by sweet sounds many
were startled, to say the least. Dif
fident to an extreme, slight of build
and almost frail in appearance the
first surprise came in his powers as
pianist, which are sweeping.
BUSINESS GIRL MUST HAVE
QUALITIES THAT ARE NEEDED
Successful Woman Not Particularly Attractive or Intelligent and
Seems Just Ordinary, but Is Envied- ,
. BT ELIZABETH LOERGAN. I
NEW YORK, No. 20. (Special.) '
A trio of new plays came to
town the same night and critics
were very busy deciding Just which
of the three should be reviewed first.
For there are several grades of critics
on the dailies and the highest in rank
always decides which particular show
he will review on opening nights. All
three stars were of great importance
William Faversham, Joseph Caw
thorne and Patricia Collinge so it
was no easy task to decide.
'"The Prince and the Pauper" was
dramatized by Amalie Rives from the
delightful old play of Mark Twain's,
well known to theater-goers of 20 and
more years ago, Mr. Faversham played
the role of Miles Hendon, the soldier
who rescues the prince (later Edward
VI) when he is an outcast.
Faversham Surpasses .Himself.
Mr. Faversham, always a favorite,
urpassied himself in the genial role
of Hendon and. gave his usual artistic
interpretation of the part. Ruth Find
lay was cast for yie double role of
prince and pauper and made a pa
thetic figure of the little delicate
prince who had a little happiness
when he became the pauper child,
Mary Rehan, last seen in one of the
leading roles in "The Wayfarer," was
excellent in Mistress Canty; Reginald
Barlow (who played the original lead
in "Old Lady 31" with Emma Dunn,
leaving the stage for the first officers'
training camp at Plattsburg) re
turned to his old haunts as John
Canty and tsvo other well-played parts
were handled by Cecil Yapp and Clare
Ames. It is a different "Prince and
Pauper" from the one that was seen
In the latter 80s with Elsie Leslie as
the two boys, but is still charming
HOW very often we look at the
successful business girl and try
to analyze the reason for her
prominence. She may not be particu
larly attractive or Intelligent and'
seems to us Just an ordinary, girl who
has,- somehow or other, gained heights
we envy. With a good position she Is
ceritinually being offered other good
ones business men seem to seek her,
to . appreciate her and want her for
their own office. And we wonder
why. . .
It Is because that particular busi
ness girl has certain assets which help
her to be efficient and become neces
sary to the office where she is em
ployed. When we become neeessary
we are of some account, mam or
woman, and the girl who possesses
qualities that make her so is Indeed
fortunate. But the other less fortu
nate srirls need not simply stand by
and regret their own inferior posi
tions; they can study her and ac
quire those same qualities which are
such valuable business assets.
Patience is a most valuable asset
because it helps all others. The girl
who can have patience in trying nours
and keep a cool, clear head even when
nnlustlv accused will always come out
on top. High-pitched, reckless speech
with the probable climax 01 tears noes
not particularly help any girl toward
a good salary, but the cool, calm girl
who argues firmly ana patiently ana
quietly gives the impression of know
ing what she Ms talking about and is
more likely to know. These moments
are not forgotten whether they be
quiet and businesslike or hysterical
and upon them depenos mucn 01 me
failure and success. So be patient
and keep the temper well under con
trol. Take a look about at the men and
women who enjoy high positions and
one of their assets is keenness that
gift of quick perceptibility. They may
seem quiet and unobserving, but Just
watch them and vou will soon learn
that they miss little that they have
trained minds which are quick to
grasp new thoughts and to see all
sides of business. Much that you may
think, trifling they will pick up and
hold, and it Is Just this keenness
which enables them to act quickly, to
think straight and to give valuable
Judgments when asked. Try It your
self; try reading the faces of your
office associates under various emo
tions. Watch the big financial men
who come into the office and try to
read their face and piece out from
their remarks the true thinking In
their brain. It will surprise you how
this gift will develop and upon Just
what definite signs and , Indications
you can usually depend. There are
times when great issues fall into tne
hands which least expect it and you,
the business girl, may some time find
yourself In a tight place where your"
keenness, will decide whether tnou
sands of dollars are saved or lost.
Sjrrely the girl who possesses keen
ness will be appreciated at such a
time.
Are you congenial do you make it
a point to say and do the things which
keep the office running smoothly or
do you antagonize by your manner
and your remarks? The girl whose
gift along this line is well developed
knows how to meet the grouchy man
and send him away satisfied to com
fort and encourage the office boy or
the discouraged clerk, and her pleas
ing personality helps to impress the
desired customer whose patronage is
sought.
To be of cosmopolitan tastes and
good mixer assures the congenial girl
a faithful following among .her office
workers. All people do not possess
this latter gift, but it, too, may be
developed, and it does not mean utter
depreciation of self, either, for one
may mix well with other personali
ties and yet not lose one s own.
And because good health makes all
these other assets possible the girl
should concentrate upon its perfection.
Unless she has some very pronounced
illness -which should keep her en
tirely away from business, there are
no minor unpleasant sides of the
health question which cannot be
remedied by careful and faithful at
tendance.

and well worth going to. The Booth
is a tiny theater, all too small for
the crowds that will want to see the
production with its favorite star. -The
Half Moon" Haa Mulcal Charm.
Joe Ca'wthorne, another big favor
ite, but with a different sort of theater-goers
from those who dote on
Faversham, came to the Liberty Am
sterdam In "The Half Moon," which
proved to be comedy with tuneful mu
sic and unusually fine cast of players.
Besides Mr. Cawthorne there are
Joseph Santley and Ivy Sawyer, Oscar
Shaw, Edna May Oliver, May Thomp
son and that funniest of comediennes,
Maude Eburne.
Cawthorne has lost none of hie
charm since he abandoned that Ger
man accept (one of the effects of the
recent war!) and while he is not as
funny as in "The Canary," it is mere
ly because he hasn't the same oppor
tunities for humor.
Patricia Collinge Has Southern Role.
Patricia Collinge, who has been as
sociated with young girl parts, grad
uating from "Pollyanna" to "Tillle,
the Menonite Maid," Is seen this sea
son in the part of a Virginia maiden.
Needless to say she is very attrac
tive and at her best in the delightful
role.
E. A. Thomas' story, "Just Suppose,"
tells what would happen if a prince of
Wales should meet a charming maiden
from Virginia. If all maids were like
the fair Patricia, one could tell at
once!
Geoffrey Kerr,' a young English
actor, makes his American debut as
Miss Collinge's leading man and
others in the play are Mrs. Thomas
Whiffen, Fred Kerr, Leslie Howard,
William Knightleigh and Lawrence
Eddinerer.
Mr. Miller is the" produdeer and has.
as usual, surrounded Miss Collinge
with an excellent cast and beautiful
i settings for the play.

Interesting numbers.
The special engagement of those
vaudeville favorites, Fletcher Norton
and Violet Horner, is announced as
the added attraction extraordinary.
Mr. Norton and Miss Horner appear

Will Morris, without question the
funniest tramp comedian on the
American stage and who has- been
featured in this country and abroad.
will be seen in his own "Tattered Tal

which he extracts a hurricane of fun.
As an exponent -of tramp cnaacter
none can excel this clever knight of
the road.
The three Moran sisters nave one
of the most pleasing of musical acts.
Violin, niano. trombone and voice all
play principal parts in tneir oiienngs.
They are exceptionally proiiy
whose -talent will appeal to everyone
who cares for music.
Hntrhev Clark is widely Known as a
funster and as the Fatty Arbuckle cf
vaudeville. In addition to his songs
and stories, Mr. Clark has an acro
batic dance that Is a tremendous sur
prise. With "Something New," Giddy and
Giddy have an exciting novelty that
will command -more than casual at
tention. It must be seen to be appreciated.

has been such a sensation, will be

GOTHAM'S INTEREST TURNS TO

NEW YORK, Nov. 20. (Special.)

There Is none who has forgotten the

furore In concert, according to the
news received by her manager, Charles
Wagner, who is receiving most en
thusiastic messages from all parts of
the country asking for her. Miss
Garden will fill her concert dates un

her mother and father, but will leave
the table to take the 20th Century
