"SHINY" PAT FOLKS One of the fat, woman' chief griefs in life it her shiny, greasy akin. If It be pimply beiides, as it probably ia (or may be), her cup of anguish it full, Powders and cosmetics limply hide these horrors' for a season a very thorl teason. They are not a cure for them. There isn't any cure for them except getting rid of the greae beneath. When the does that she finda her complexion improve!. In thi way only can I account for the clear, natural complexion acquir ed by those who use the Marmola re ceipt: One half ounce Marmola, 1-2 ounce Fluid Extract Cascara Aroma tic, 3 ounce Peppermint Water. By causing the excess flesh to be absorb ed, it clean the blood of the globules oi tat which, physician say, cause the greasy, oily skin of the over-fat. This simple receipt makes a mix ture both pleasant and harmless- It catnei neither wrinkles nor stomach disturbances. It is also quite inex pensive. Make it a point to ' try some; take a teaspoonful after meals and at bedtime for a week or two and see if your oily skin doc not quickly disappear. A you lose your fat your complexion should progressively im prove, and after a month or so, when you have lost 25 or 30 pounds or flesh, it should be nearly perfect.

That Henry B, Harris will produce for the tirst time on' the 'American stage at the Boston Theatre, Bos ton, early next September, Martha Morton's American adaptation of Dr. Leopold Kampf's sociological drama. "On the Eve." That Beatrice Prentice, who scored euch an enormous hit in the character of Julie Bagneau with Robert. Ede- son in "The Call of the North," is to play a prominent part in 'On the Eve". which Henry B. Harris will produce early next season. That Henry Mawson is writing a play for Henry B.

McCaull. statement which goes with abso lutely no qualification or reservation. It applies also to players, playwrights, and managers just why 1 aonx know, unless, as I said before, clean liness of all kinds is a tremenduous factor in final success. And by suc cess I. as a manager, am still talking of dollars and cents. Klaw and Er- langer's 'Ben Hur and 'Little Nemo' and William A. Brady's 'Way Down East' have made more money and will live longer on the forty-weeks-a-year boards than any two cleverly written but suggestively immoral .French or English or German or American plays which you or any one else can name. 'Brewster's Millions' and Pol ly of the Circus,' both of which I am proud to have produced, have been, are now, and will continue to be, pro ductive of bigger returns than any two American plays of the present day which deal with indecency. Miss Maude Adams is the greatest draw ing card in the whole theatrical firm ament. She is more respected and is wealthier than Madame Bernhardt which does not mean that Bernhardt is not the greatest actress of the last or present generation. 'Florodora, 'Little Johnny Jones,' 'The Red Mil, and 'Mademoiselle Modiste have made more money than a hundred such productions as the 'Queen of the Moulin Rouge' have or will." THE VOTING MACHINES. In many States of the Union, says A- E. Thomas in "Success Magazine," the voting machine has been sub jected to various elaborate tests. In some States it has passed these tests and in others it has proven a failure, and has been discarded. But whatev er its triumphs or failures elsewhere, in no other place has the voting ma chine proved such a flawless success as in the House of Representatives at Washington. In that large legis lative body the vast majority of the ponderous Republican majority are supposed to be what they are officially called representatives. As a matter of fact they are voting machines, and they register the regal will of Speak er Cannon. Now and then one of these voting machines is seen to be provided with a talking attachment which can be and is turned on and oS at the pleas- a sort of kintescopic device by the use of which a series of motion pictures may be thrown upon the screen of the national capitol, to the mutual amusement of the Speaker and the crowds in the visitors' galleries. And the whole contrivance is so simply controlled! Ah! the wonders of mod ern science! Uncle Joe Cannon! It's an affectionate title. One wonders how the Speaker ever got it, and af ter some deliberation is driven to , conclude that it must be because of the striking similarity between Uncle Joe and the celebrated avuncular rel ative of the pawnshop. The legisla tion of this country, at all events, is in pledge to Uncle Joe. ure of the operator, and there is also heart." That Herbert Corthell, who is play ing Bob Blake with the touring com pany of James Forbes' comedy, "The Traveling Salesman," was born in Massachusetts, playing his first en gagements with stock companies touring New England.

That Grace Filkins made ber de but on the stage with Haverly's ju venile "Pinafore" company in the role of Josephine. Her first engagement Successful Plays Are Clean. Frederic Thompson, the well known theatrical manager, writing in "Success Magazine," says: "The most successful plays and the most successful mustical entertain ments, not only of recent years, but in legitimate work was in "Josephine of all time, have been clean.
