Trait.' t have 'had my attention called to the wearing, of very pronounced de collete gowns on the street even at times when summer sun and humid ity did not warrant seeking comfort in this fashion. - It is apparent that women are los ing in modesty, when fat i necks, scrawny necks, long necks, and short necks are prominently displayed, other than at home or when the de mands of evening dress warrant the expose. ? '- v Outside of everything else it should be woman's aim to dress appropriate ly. Surely the low cut neck does not live up to the demands of good taste and . appropriateness . for street ap pearance. 1 . - Even the net yoke Is almost as bad as the bare neck, as it is fitted so tightly and is so transparent that very little is left to- the imagination. Modesty maj be an old fashioned virtue. It Is well worth retaining as a strong factor in woman's charm. Sometimes I have seen women .so onspfcUoiisfly, -attired that I wonder ed at a man being willing to act as their escort. The man of refinement who is not "flashy" in his own attire must cer ttinly feel embarrassed at the tin pleasant attention his companion at tracts. While I am no advocate of the Quaker Garb or the Dunker plainess of line and color, I do up hold the quiet elegance that does not go to extremes on the public thoroughfare or In a public convey, ance. .

Mr. Brown's Interesting Dis- l course on the local Dally Press. Flattering tribute was paid - to the modern newspaper by Rev. George M. Brown, pastor of -the First Methodist church, last night. In the second of a series of "Timelv Talks," and a large congregation attended the service. Mr. Brown said that the modern newspa per is one of the wonders .of the age. It gathers an amount of news far 'be yond what any one TeaJiaes. Since last Monday morning the newspapers of this city printed nearly three thou sand columns up to and including the Saturday evening editions. , This vast amount of news was given a circula- tion approximating 300,000 copies. I The local press is very liberal. Rev. ' Mr. Brown thinks. "Considering the amount of capital invested, the labor expended and the number of people employed, the scope of the news cov ! ered and the price of paper left at our ; door, we cannot but marvel and at ; the same time rejoice that while the prices of so many other commodities ; that make life worth living axe soar ; log the newspaper is cheaper and bet ter tdan ever," said Rev. JMr. Brown. "The liberality of the Bridgeport press in supporting commendable en terprises should toe sincerely appreciat ed. , - There is not a church nor charit able institution in the city that has not been beleflted far beyond compu tation by their generous advertising; The winter Chautauqua, assembly could not have been the success it was from the first if the papers of the city had not seen the worth of the idea and given -it most loyal support." Rev. Mr. Brown made the assertion that newspapers are a great cteterent to crime, believing that many a man is afraid to do some evil thing because of the exposure that he knows is sure to follpw. "It Is possible that some public officers are encouraged to be more faithful because they dread the results of newspaper criticism," he said. "This is one of the most legi timate and useful provinces of the press.' It owes its exercise to the public upon which t depends for. its support. A thief Jn a city hall or on a Board of Aldermenr or in any committee or commission ought to be as publicly exposed as the man who sneaks an ..overcoat from a front hall. The light ought -to be turned onto every evil place and - practice In Bridgeport. . If of evil resort and "the names of the men who own the build ings were published, half the battle would be won. And we prophecy that the day win come. The-reluc tance of the press sometimes to assist In such work is hard to understand, for no better advertisement for a city can be published than the announce ment that it demands through its daily- papers that it shell be made a safer and better city - In which to live. . i ,t "The daily press of this city Is as clean as can be found anywhere and may be a safe visitor for any home. Gross details of scandal are excluded. Too much cannot be said in deprecia tion of the class of papers that seem to gloat over the sickening details of some society scandal, and whose ad vertisement depends upon its own foul odor. . . ...:.'- 4 "A business man not Ions- sines' was heard to give this characterization of our city papers: Wobbly, weak, reac tionary and consistent. Bach de scription referring o a different paper. Of course our favorite paper is the consistent one. Consistent because at all times and upon all questions it stands, clearly and. definitely for. the interests of the people. It Is Indepen dent enough to never cause a suspic ion that its policy is controlled by selfish interests. ; Surely It has to live but not by direct nor indirect bribery. Consistent, because it prefers to ereate public opinion and lead it to higher ground rather than to be exceedingly careful to know just' how the public feels and then side with H. Big newspapers make public opinion and seek o make it right. They can do more than all of the ministers com bined to arouse . nubile sentiment that shall demand the right. - ISow great they are when they say "this is right and I will fight for it with all of my influence! ' But how dangerous they are when they ."wobble' or take the other sidel Then the interests of the people suffer, i ."The good : newspaper should be shown sincere appreciation. . When it ta,kes a position for justice, .truth and righteousness the men who rejoice in it should not be slow to encourage- the editor . with their avowed approval. Many an editor has been obliged to say 'I cannot fight .this out alone, no Body cares, what is the use' and -he gives uip,-rhe battle half won. This is another challenge to the 'good' citi zen." .- . - . , WALSH1 FOII JUDGEl Prom down Falrfleld county way comes the rumor that Judge John J.

The Courant. -v A Rousing Appetite f . is a Keen Delight And What is of Greater' Interest, . Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Enable ' the Stomach, to. Digest What- eyer Is Eaten. . ? We all like, to see the way healthy children devour their meals. Would we could all do the same! Eating ought to be a delight. It is one of life's chief enjoyments. People who cannot relish a good meal are apt to fall into those ill-tempered moods from, which they view the world as a Borry. place to live in. So let us learn to employ the best means of har monizing our existence and thus ex tract from our daily grind all the pleasure there is to be had. This we can ds by keeping our stomachs in prime, active working order. A majority of people have come to know the blessings which an occa sional use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets confer upon the stomach. They are unquestionably the most popular remedy known, for the reason that dyspepsia is the national disease, and these wonderful little tablets have long since acquired a national reputa tion as a thoroughly reliable and efficient cure for all forma of dyspep sia and indigestion. No matter how great the excess of food taken into the stomach, one or two of these tablets will digest every particle of it. A package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets should always be in the house. Many a person has saved himself from a serious attack of -acute indigestion by using ,them after heavy meals, such as are eaten Christmas, New Year's, Thanksgiving and other holidays and festal seasons. After attending banquets, late sup pers, heavy fancy dinners, after-theatre partie, etc., where one has dined sumptuously and luxuriantly; Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets should invariably be used, as they digest the food per fectly and completely, and prevent all possibility of dyspepsia, which, with out their use, is more than likely to ensue. Americans are exceedingly fond of the good things of life, and there is apt to be great excess of eating, and the only way to overcome its bad effects on the stomach is to employ a powerful and efficient digestive such as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which always Insure a good digestion. r Obtain a 50c box from your drug gist today. Adv. ATTRACTIONS "thethIatres LYRIC THEATRE It is indeed a pleasure to note the coming to the Lyric theatre for the current week of so strong an attrac tion as Sardou's wonderful cemedy drama of the French revolution, "Mme. Sans Gene" a play which ever since its first production has been one of the greatest successes known to the stage. It is a- play in which the Elea nor Cleveland Stock company will ap peal most strongly to the public, for it embraces the very kind of work in which they appear at their best, and it will be embellished with the most mag nificent stage settings, and the finest costumings any play ever produced in this city by a stock organization has enjoyed. The story of "Mme. Sans Gene" is one of engrossing interest, and being based upon actual historical facts, it is told in a convincing manner, which could i.ot be secured in any product of fiction, - or an imaginative writer's brain. It is told in a. prologue and three acts, and the period is first in the 'summer of 1792, and then in the early fall of 1811, nearly twenty years later. The character of Catherine Huebscher, known among her intimates as "Mme. Sans Gene" stands out in especially bold relief, Catherine hav ing been lowly by. birth, plebian a washerwoman by occupation, and in the play a duchess by marriage, and the great friend and favorite - of Em peror Napoleon. Notwithstanding her title and royal' station, ene retains her low -manners and habits, and creates untold disturbance in the Napoleonic court, especially when she controverts Napoleon's purposes and sets his wishes at naughty . . The play, while possessing a fund of brierht csmrlv which 5a Irresistible, is intensely dramatic,- and the story told is extremely powerful and virile. The interest runs excessively high at times, and- often an audience is held . fairly spellbound during the stronger scenes. Sardou wrote a marvelous play .in "Mme.-"Sans Gene" but then he had a wealth or wonderful material . from whfch to draw, and he made the most of it. - ' - The cast which will present this great play this week will consist of over for ty people, the regular company having been largely augmented for this occa sion. H. D. Benson, who played the role of Napoleon in the original pro duction, has been specially engaged for the current week, and his work will stand out as one of- the biggest features of a production that is cal culated to put all other stock offerings in the shade. Miss Cleveland will of course be seen in the title role, while Harry Ingram In the part of JJefebvre, a sergeant in the prologue, afterwards becoming the Duke of Dantzig and Marshal of France in the play, will be her chief support. Mr. Carroll will be seen in the prologue as Fouche, a Rev olutionist, and in the play as the Min ister 'Of Police. All the other favorites of the Cleve land company will be seen In congenial roles,, while the other parts will be filled by people who have been se lected with especial view to their per sonal and professional fitness.- The dramatic presentation of this wonder ful play will be all that anyone could possibly desire, and is calculated to give the patrons of the Lyric theatre this week the biggest treat they have had all season .long,:. That the playwill be elaborately and handsomely staged, is assured by the fact that Karkunoff .& Schrock, Miss Cleveland's : managers, have given it their personal supervision, - and not a detail, either of the scenic or costum ing features, has been -overlooked, or stinted In the matter of expense. Al together, a presentation which will stand as the finest offering ever pre sented In this city J by a stock organi zation is guaranteed, and there . is no doubt that the. theatre will be filled to the doors at -every one of the nine performances. A better or stronger offering could scarcely be Imagined, and the week of "Mme, Sans Gene'? is sure to be the biggest -one of the current season. Seats have sold ex tremely well for the entire week and the supply is getting rather limited. POLI'S THEATRE v Washington-Bridgeport Poli players will present tne aejectaxion - or nu port theatregoers, Eugene Walter's famous play of contemporary Ameri can life, "Paid in Full." "Paid in Full" was Mr. Walter's first attempt as a playwright and it -made him famous. It enjoyed long runs in the large cities of this country and it has never failed to please and interest. Large audiences have been the rule wherever it has been produced and judging from the - large sale the Poll presentation this week will be no ex ception. - The play has a strong vein of human appeal and strong dramatic points. ' .,''' The story concerns one Joe Brooks, whose desire to live in luxury tempts him to steal a sum of money from his employer and be goes to live in a fashionable flat with his. young bride. For a short time he enjoys every thing and he feels that he IB at least "living,1 But the Inevitable ' crash comes when his employer, who had been abroad at the time the theft had been committed, returns home. Brook sees the prison walls staring him in the face and like a craven in fear -he turns to his wife to save him. She refuses at first but he finally prevails upon her to go to Capt. Williams," his employer and plead for him. She goes to his apartments alone to beg forgiveness for her cad of a husband. -Jimmy Smith, a young friend of Mrs. Brooks, knowing the reputation of the Captain, gets to the apartments - before her -and tells the Captain in no uncertain manner that 11 17 Will xU,U . . -j,. - eafe return.

Doing what, Mr.- Bones? Writing stories about Miss Maude Adams, "the little lady" of the stage, the idol of a million matinee girls, who love her even more than they do Mr. Richard Harding Da vis or Laura Jean Libbey, and the heroine whose praises are sung by thousands of ' unofficial and unpaid press agents. Miss Adams will cele brate her fortieth birthday today bus ily engaged in preparing for a holiday revival In New York of J. M. Barrie's inspiring fantasy of eternal youth, "Peter Pan." During a season of twenty-five performances at the Em pire theatre. Miss Adams will again be seen in the role of the boy who retused to grow up, and who, to escape, ' the silent advance of the relentless years, flew away to Never-Never-Nev-er Land. The dainty actress is at her beet in boyish parts, such as "Peter Pan" and the pathetic "L'Aiglon" and not even the divine Sarah herself was the equal of the American actress in the latter role. Maude Adams Kiskaddon is the real name of the actress, now forty, fair and frail, who was' born in Salt Lake City, on Nov. 11, 1872. Her father was James KJfkadden, of Irish descent, a business man of the Mormon metropo lis. Her mother was Annie Adams, leading woman in a Salt Lake stock company, and - daughter of a Utah pioneer who came of John Quincy Adams stock. Annie Adams did not permit marriage and motherhood to in terfere with her theatrical ambitions, and from her' infancy Maude was ac customed to the atmosphere of Thes planLsm. The Salt Lake theatre, a playhouse, subsidized by the Mormon church, was the scene of Maude's pre miere, which occurred when she was nine months old. Phil Margetts, an Englishman who was then a popular comedian, but who later became a li quor dealer in Salt Lake City, was .responsible for the early debut of Miss Adams. In a farce entitled "The Lost Child" Margetts was cast for the rple of a lost, strayed or stolen infant. He had to appear on the stage fondling a baby and an imitation in fant, made of rags, was provided for this purpose. Margetts Was Indignant, and- demanded that he be supplied with the real article. After much persuasion Mrs. Kliskadden was Induced ' to loan Maude to the outraged actor. Miss ' Adams was five years when she made her first voluntary appear ance on the stage, this time at the Bush Street theatre in San Francis co. - She essayed the role of Little Schneider in one of - J. K. Emmet's "Fritz" productions. At six little Maude was sent to school, where she remained, if or ten years, although dur ing vacations she often appeared in child parts in plays with her mother. At sixteen she made her bow to a New York audience at the Madison Square tneatre, as a schoolmistress in Hoyt's "A Midnight Bell." Her first real hit was as the crippled girl In "The Lost Paradise." At twenty she became leading woman with John Drew. Her initial appearance as a star was as Lady Babbie, in ''The Little Minister," at Washington. ' Seven years ago .this month, at the Empire theatre in New York, - where she is soon to be : seen again In the same role, ' "Peter Pan" was - launch ed on its euccesful run of two seasons. She lias since appeared In the roles of "Chantecler" and as Maggie in "What Every Woman Knows" with great euc cess but it is as the creator of Peter Pan- that she is best-known and most loved. ; Forty today. Miss Adams is yet a girl, and the Idol and the inspiration of millions of other girls of from six toi sixty. There may be a greater ar tist, but there Is no greater woman on the stage today. -j ' - R. G.
