uu8 . &Kinner a stage rags' are
very dear to him. One can always
buy new staff but-.not rags, at
least the" Tfclnd he wore In 'Kla
met" and is wearing this season
In "The-Honor of the Family."
Nineteen years ago Mr. Skinner
played in "The .Honor pf the Fam
ily" when he created the role of
Colonel Philippe Bridau, He has
elected 'to revive the old Colonel,
,v ho is ' very much' a rogue, and
the -veteran actor du from the
moth halls the Colonel's old down-at-the-heel
uniform.
"There I am.", said Mr. Skin
ner, pointing to a life-sized figure
as the Colonel, in .a handsome
painting. "That Is the way I look
when L make my appearance on
tbfr stage and begin raising hell.'
But if mast be rather enjoyable
hell, if it can be raised with such
a twinkle in the Colonel's eyes.
Skinner's twinkle seems deeper
-and the eyes browner when they
are contrasted with, his white hair
that is not always permitted 'to
show po the -stage. '.?
Mr. Skinner deplores the com
mercial aspect of the stage.
"I don't want to be one of those
old fellows who gloat onA past,
bat it Is all so etaggerinW Why,
do you know, that there lire two
legitimate theaters in New York
where major productions are be
ing presented? Everything hap
pens so fast." , . . .
And' then to youth.
"Youth is handicapped on the
stage today. They are not given
a chance. In the past there was a
school, of expressionism; -a player
had a chance to express himself.
Today "it is a sjtudy In suggestion
and repression. Players are' cast
as to type. They play themselves
and many of them do it exceed
ingly well. But oxit of this style
of acting we will never find any
Shakespearian actors."
What Mr. Skinner objects to on
the modern stage is the tendency
to use it for vivi-section of social
problems.
"I think the stage should rep
resent a Never-Never land, people
want to believe the unreal." .
Mr. Skinner and his excellent
company will be the attraction in f
the Elsinore theater June 22.

- For this latest First National

new and novel situations have
been added. The result is that no

Something New
For Over-Stout Women
You can wrap a 250-pound woman
into thi3 beautiful garment and
bring her down to the most shape
ly figure. For it is an exquisitely
designed and beautifully worked
and finished piece' of apparel. You
may call it a corset or supporter
and yef it is a delight to the ey'el
and a contribution to comfort
never before attained. It is
TheW. S. Rice
Corrective Supporter
and Brassiere
The front and back are so designed
that those great layers of fat that
bulge over the abdomen , and roll
in waves down the back to the
waist,' are ail smoothed out and
gently but firmly kept in place to
show 50 to 75 pounds reduction.
On Free Trial
It lifts up and supports the bust,
"snugly rounds over the hips,
curves the waist line to symmetri
"cal appearance and brings the en
tire figure into slenderizing pro
portion.
Made in the famous W. S. Rice factory at Adams, N. Y., and designed
by a noted corsetiere, it needs but a-try-on to prove it the first and
only perrect Reducing Corset ever made for stout women.
In every neiRhbohood and community are women who have under
gone surgical operations leaving weak places that sometimes break
apart with mosL unfortunate results. A simnlo aii.hmoni ni.
cushions to the conformer 'gives perfect support and protection.
Mrs. J. A. Cilligan, the personal representative of W, S. Rice, is now
here to give the ladies of Salem every opportunity to fully test this
wonderful Reducing Corset.
Put it on and see how charmingly it feels, how perfectly it brings
you into shape, how nice and comfortable you feet, how easily you
breathe, how actively you become, how you can bend over without
strain, walk upstairs like a girl, and wear modern gowns with all
me appearance ana freedom of a perfect figure.
It is made by W. S. Rice. Inc., in the largest and most complete fac
tory of its kind in the world. And if you have been so unfortunate
as to have undergone a surgical operation that has left the abdomen
weak, a simple attachment of air cushions gives perfect protection.
