TARE TI32I2 PLAY IS THE GREATEST OF RECENT- YEARS After a run that lasted for more than two years in New York and nn rear In Chicago, Msssrs. Cohan and Harris will bring the entire and com plete production and cast whlrh la headed by Fred Niblo, and Includes Josephine Cohan, to the Grand Opera nouse, Monday, December 18. Every critic In New York and Chi cago considered "The Fortune Hunt er" to be the best dramatic nlav on the American stage. During Its long run In the metropolis, the theater at every performance was Backed to its utmost capacity by enthusiastic thea tergoers. Wlnchell Smith, the author of this delightful comedy, has suc ceeded in writing what Is considered by many to be the lon?-awlti American play. In order to entov the distinction of being such a compost-1 tion, it must embodv. aside frrm ita subject matter, the treatment that' wjU create for it the commendation of the public that lasts not for one day but for years. The dean of domestic critics, Wil liam Winter, in language plain de clares "The Fortune Hunter" to he the play of the century". Mr. Smith has taken for the motive of his Dlay the all absorbing subject of "how to acquire a million dollars" and weaved It into a etory ttat holds the atten tion of the playgoe from the first until the final curtain. Every char acter tin "The Fortune Hunter" is as clear cut as a cameo and with the aid of a perfect company of artists of established reputation, Mr. Wln chell Smith has thereby been able to more easily, make his bid for the po sition of one of America's greatest dramatists! In selecting Fred Nlblo as the star, Cohan and Harris have displayed the shrewd acumen so nec essary to success In the theatrical business, and have meritoriously ad vanced one of America's most worthy actors to a position he should have had, by reason of his talents, many years ago. o "SEVEN DAYS" PLEASES ALL THE CRITICS "Seven Days" Is as clean is it la musing. It makef everybody laugh every minute. One roof of its su periority is Its power to entertain more thoroughly a second or a third time than the first. It Is an endless source of constant laughter. "Seven Days" Is an American comedy, by American authors. Its action takes place In New York and Its persons are representatives of the smart set and that other that lives by smart ness, and there are complications In numerable In the week In which all are shut up in the same house by a quarantine. There Is fun all the tlm In love, divorce, misapprehen sion, pretense, starvation, vaccination and It goes from drawing room to basement and roof, and It lasts through the funniest seven days Imaginable. Keep the night open tor "Seven Days" and lay in a stock of laughter that will last many times seven days. . o A LARGE TRACT IRRIGATED BY POWDER RIVER Messrs. Wagenhals & Kemper will present their New York Astor Thea ter company at the Grand Opera House, Tuesday, December 19, In the comedy "Seven Days," by Mary Rob erts Rlnehart and Avery Hopwood, which comes from a third year on Broadway. It Is well to have au thoritative Indorsement of a play, and Seven Days" has It In abundance. It Is offered by Its third year In New York, the record for any play In this country; It lies In Its six months In Chicago, Its four months in Boston and Philadelphia, In Its unanimous praise by the press, and above all In the popular favor that has made It the biggest success In this country. Said the New York Tribune of "Sev en Days": "It Is screamingly funny It Is all fun. The world loves laugh ter. At 'Seven Days' It can laugh till It is weary." There it Is that's the reason for the enormous popu larity of this comedy laughter, loud laughter, roars of It, every fraction of a second. And It is laughter of which nobody will be ashamed.
