FLASHES FROM ''STARS"
"It Is an open crucstlon," says AA'illlam Collier,
"whether the married man had best take the
blame upon himself after a quarrel with his
wife and endeavor to smooth matters over
peaceably or not. Sometimes tho wife Is so
snippy and Indifferent after the poor man's
efforts that he regrets having taken this course.
I know a young couple of the stage to whom
Just this sort of thing happened.
"They had been quarreling, and the young
husband, regretting it and being anxious to
'make up,' bi ought a little gift for the wife.
" 'Edna,' ho said, 'come here. Aren't yod
curious to know what Is In this package?'
" 'Oh, not very,' replied Edna, belligerently,
as she glanced at the package in question. 'I
rather think I can endure the strain.'
" 'AVell. ho said, coaxingly, trying to win he?
to good humor, 'it's something for the one I love
best In all the world. Now, guess!'
" 'Indeed!' sniffed Edna, as she started to
leave the room. 'I suppose, then. It's that pair
ot new trousers you said you needed.' '

ing my mother's disobedient daughter. If I
had been a nlco little girl I would bo In Paris
now, and perhaps may have stnircd to death."
Johnny Dove, who deserted vaudeville to play
here In tho "Ziegfeld Follies" as Honost Bill,
has gained nt least half his reputation on tho
manner In which he shakes his feet. Last &ea
son at the time of the Ohio flood, when starring
with the Al U. Field Miustrols. he wub tailed
upon to do a turn nt a benefit for the flood
sufferers.
"My little act." modestly relates Mr. Dove,
"followed tho Plvino Sarah Bernhardt nnd pre
ceded the gentt-el John Drew. Whllo rehearsing
my music Mr. Drew came on the stuge with h'a
people to rehearse his net. I had neor mot him
nnd had only observed his stately demeanor u
a member of the nudienco ut his plays, and t
felt sure that I was annoying him, knonlng
that dancing shoes, In :.udeville vernacular, aro
termed 'sketch disturbers.'
"But qulto to my surprieo Mr Prow was ver?
much Interested, nnd confessed that ho had a
largo porch built on his bemo In Northampton,
U I-. with a special dancing floor. Thero ha
nnd hU valet, an old minstrel man. would rattle
off 10 or JO steps ocry morning for exercise.
