event of tho season. Tho story of

erage American. In his making of

tho story with humor, with here and
there a touch of pathos. Tho piece
tells of tho regeneration of a young
iinan of to-day through his own ef
forts, and tho finding of his true
self comes only with tho working out
of a baso scheme which Would lend
to getting his fortuno through mar
riage with an heiress. Tho play

falluro in everything ho has at
tempted, in tho apartments of his
chum Harry Kellogg, who has been
tho great opposite successful to tho
highest degree. Nat Is desperate,
refuses to accept raoro favors from

crime to get relief from his strug
gles for money. When ho finds Nat
In this frame of mind, Kellogg un
folds a schemo and "tho down-and-out
Nat" agress to work It out. Ac
cording to tho rubes, ho Is bound In
honor to llvo for a year In a small
country town, selected by Kellogg,
forswear all former habits and lead
an exemplary llfo In tho village
Tho clement of love that comes Into
his life Is a roliof for tho sordldness
of tho original schemo which ho re
nounces, and In this tho author has
effected an ending that la logical and
pleasing.
