its of daughters who are well behaved
thanking me for being brave enougii
to snv whnt 1 did. beeuuse they teil
mc their daughters have really had a
hard time keeping clear of the trend of
things, nnil one said that on two occa
sions her little debutante daughter had
gone home and actually cried over some
of the things she had witnessed.
WELL, don't let's dwell on it, be
cause ou know what the wise poet
"There's so much good iu the worst
of us,
nd so much bad iu the best of us,
That it hardly behooves any one of us
To talk about the rest of us."
1 can't vouch for the absolute nccu
ncy of that quotation, but that's the
gist of it, anyway.
AND the whole point is that, above
''all and ever thing, I do not want
to hurt anj one's feelings, and when
the uip does not lit feelings really ought
tint to he hurt. And when it does (it
T hope it mny belli. I did not write in
the spirit of criticism. I asked if somc
hing definite could not be done nnd
suggest! d a remedv which could be fol
low oil. not harshly, but politely and
tactfiilli, and T feel sure much good
ewld come of it if it were carried out.

MANTELL AS LEAR
"Romeo and Juliet" Matinee Brings
Youthful Interpreters
Mr. Mnntell's company appeared in
two Shakespearean revivals yesterday at
the Broad. In the evening the star re
peated his impersonation of King Lear,
one Of his most effective roles, from
every standpoint. In the afternoon he
yielded the Rtage to Genevieve Hamper
(Mrs. Mantel) und his leading man.
Fritz Leiber, wh'o were seen ns the star
crossed lovers of "Romeo and Juliet."
Tho tragedian witnessed tho matinee
performance from a box, and his ap
plause was as earnest nnd profuse ns
that of the enthusiastic audience. The
testimony of approval was well deserved
for the incumbents of the roles brought,
in the case of Miss Hamper, illusive
grace and araciousness and n vouthful-
ness ofi aspect and bearing not usual
nmong the mature Juliets of recent sea
sons; nnd in the cose of Mr. Leiber, nn
abounding vitality and exuberant ro
mance that made his love nnd its tragic
issue very poignant and moving.
The distraught and maniac king of
legendary Britain, turned to madness
by filial ingratitude, offers a character
most admirably adapted to tho robustious
method and traditional romanticism of
Mr. Mnntell's typical acting. It is
regal in its nugust passages and pitiful
in its depiction of the weary and dis
illusioned old man. The nudience was
jmuch impressed bv the star's command
of expedients and effects, and by the
dramatic variety of his interpretation.
The Kent of John Alexander and the
Fool, of Guy Lindsley were outstanding
in ins support.

FURS AND MYSTERY
Ninth Article of a Copyrighted Series.
The demand for anything and everything furry prior
lo the start of the war in 191U has carried the prices of
nil skins to top notch and would, without doubt, have ex
terminated most fur-bearing animals, including fisher, had
not millions of men been occupied with the killing of each
, .Iff",
0tl'Cr- ,3ft
The fisher is the largest member of the marten or
tabic family, and is found in Canada, the Lake Superior
region, northern New York and occasionally in Pennsyl
tania. This animal is slender of body, has a' long pointed
head, short limbs and a long and very furry tail; its fur is
dense and of good color, but shorter than the fur of the
marten.
Maity variations are noticeable in its fur, which is
generally of a blackish hue tvith a greyish tinge on the head
and shoulders; some specimens are brown on the back and
grey on the aides; others are a paler shade of brown, and a
few have a white spot at the throat.
The fur of the fisher, aside from being in fashion in
America and Paris, found a ready market in Russia, where
it was used for the making of costly robes, ladies' hats,
etc. Fisher tail trimming is also very popular at times.
Fashion quite naturally determines the price nf these
gkins and in 1906, when fisher ivas only moderately fash
ionable, dark raw skins brought fifteen to thirty dollars;
since that time they have steadily risen in price, witil today
a first-claas fisher skin in the market will bring from two
hundred and fifty dollars to three hundred dollars.
The House of Wenger, through its knowledge of furs
and established recognition as a quality institution, secures
only the bc3t obtainable pelt3, regardless of cost.
