THE ACTOR'S STRIKE.

A whiskered sheriff knocked withoul-he's come to take their home
He holds a mortgage in hit hands, which, back in '17
The couple placed upon the farm to buy a ltmouttne.
And now the crop of hay has failed, the pi ice of gas is high, -And
there ia nothing lett for them but kiss the place good-bye.
But hold! the wayward son walks in he's just about to cough
The money that it requisite to pay the mortgage off
Alas! the finish of the play must still he felt in doubt
A walking delegate appears and calls the heto out!
A fluen headed little child ia playing in the lane,
The villain, whom her fond mammah once spurned with deep disdain,
To reap his devilish revenge, abducts the tiny maid
And ties her to the tallroad track. Will no one come to aid? .
Yesl yesl We hear the train approach but with a pruning knife
A farmer comes to cut the rope and save the baby's life.
Will there be time? Our hearts stand still; the engine throbs and hums
The ten-wheeled messenger of death each second nearer comes
But ah! we never shall know what the denouement was like
For just befoie the train appeara the baby joins the strike
The hat check girl, en tempted by the rich and aged rake
Says rags are royal raiment when they're worn for virtue's sake,
But when be buys the restaurant and throws her from her job,
And she has starved fer three long weeks she murmurs with a sob:
MAh mel forever must I face privation and despair,
I'm going to the liver side and drown myself! So there!"
And does she carry out her threat? Does not yon gentleman
"Who hears her threat show up in time to thwart her awful plan?
Who knows? The hapless maiden'a end most always be uncertain
She joini the Actor'i Equity before the final curtain!

"Like Highwayman's Claim

(Py Th Associated Tres )
WASHINGTON', Aug. 25,-Liken-
ing Great Britain's legal position tn
r.gvpt to that ot a highwayman,
Jospeh W. Folk, counsel for the
Egyptian peace delegation, told the
senate foreign relations committee
today that the Versailles treaty pro
posed to validate the "robbery" of
Egyptian independence.
Having occupied Egypt alter con
struction of the Suez canal under
the pretext of protecting the Egyp-
trans from rebels, Mr. -Folk said,
t . .. . d.:.. :.. : uiu , l a..
, Egyptian government and now pro-
fipseu unner tne treaty to reduce ner
to a subject nation." The treaty, be
said, would make Egypt's grievance
against Great Britain an internal
question, so that it could not be
dealt with by tie league of nationt.
Freedom it Asked.
"The people of Egypt," the witneta
declared, "asks a league of nationt
which will protect their independence
and not .destroy it. 'They ask you
not to deny them that self-determination
for which more than a million
Egyptians fought in the war just
ended."
The delegation sent to the Parit
conference hy the Egyptian repre
sentative a"sembl Mr. Folk said,
were held in "virtual imprisonment"
and were not permitted to even tend
representative to the United
States. He declared the protectorate
claimed by Great Britain over Egypt
was the "same sort of protectorate
that a highwayman would claim over
your pocket-book."
Great Britain repeatedly had
pledged, Mr. Folk said, that her oc
cupation of Egypt would he tem
porary and he asked that a clause be
written into the treaty giving Egypt
the right to appeal to the league
council. Republican members of the
f J11Allroo
committee suggested, however, that
th league waa to be controlled by
the tame powers as made the treaty,
and ttat Great Britain's rights -in
Egypt already had been recognized
formally by the American ttate de
partment.
Referring to the outbreaks against
Rritisli rule in Egypt. Mr. Folk said
Great Rritain "had suppressed the
newt of what was taking place and
did not want the Uniten States es
pecially to learn the facts."

The fundamental element in the Player-Piano
is the player action. Upon that depends it's
service.
In' building the "Brewster" Player-PiarTo, the
Brewster Piano Cow have always kept the ,matter
of tone and quality in mind. Their foundation is
the tone of the Brewster Piano, and to this is
added the best player action that has thus far
been developed. The standard all-metal tube,
metal valve action, prevents trouble. There are no
rubber tubes or rubber bellows to rot or crack
causing loss of power and numerous other
troubles.' The result, the
"Brewster-Player"
Price $595
embedies all the qualities of the ideal instrument,
durability and simplicity in the action, placing at
the service of it's owners superior repetition and
wide graduations of tone; combined with a piano
that has occupied a foremost place in the piano
industry for nearly half a century.
