Rock Island AT THE ILLINOIS. Those who complain about the de cadence, of the drama can offer no sound criticism of "The Rosary." which was the sensation of the popular priced houses last season. It is not a religious drama of the heavy sort. lacking In entertaining qualities. On the contrary, it is a delightful Btory of everyday life, in which the plot hinges upon the misery which creeps into a household through circum stances which lead to suspicion v and jealousy, and of a part which a priest, Rev. Brian Kelly, plays In bringing about a correct understanding. A rosary of pearls figure In the unfold-1 lng of the plot and its final denoue ment It is stated the play is hand somely Btaged by the producers, Row land and Clifford and is enacted by a powerful acting cast consisting of Blosser Jennings, Florence Wright Eleanor Rella, Harry Price, Nettie De Coursey, Reginald Knorr, Henry Gar ron and others. "The Rosary" is a play which every lover of clean and entertaining stage productions should see. Six companies, all equally form ed as to strength of cast, are tour ing the country again this season, repeating the hit that this play made everywhere last year. It will be seen at the Illinois here next Sunday. AT THE EMPIRE. Yodeling such as Scanlan and Em mett gave us is now almost a lost art. You have heard performers who posed as yodelers, but invariably they were a disappointment. One of the excep tions is to be found on the bill for the first half of the week at the Empire. He is Jere Sanford. Jere is of the old school, and you will apreciate that fact and the art of the man, the in stant he gets into vocal action. Jere blend3 his singing with a chore boy characterization, this latter resorted to doubtless to meet the requirements of present-day vaudeville staging. He has a fresh line of patter, too, and then he whistles after a fashion that you will like. But It Is In his yodeling where he shines, offering several of the songs that you heard when you were a boy. Sanford Is a wrhole treat in himself. To be sure there are other good things on the bill; in fact every act may be classed a feature. The Juggling Normans have the big offer ing, and their work last night was so fast that they kept the audience busy following their movements, While it borders on the thriller kind there is displayed such ease and grace in the exchange of clubs by the five partici pants that you marvel how it is pos sible for men to reach such perfection in the performance of their stunts. Corrigan and Vivian, rllfle experts, have a surprise in connection with their offering. The lady introduces the act with a song, well done. Then 6he shoots targets from the stage, afterward taking a positorr in the aisle of the auditorium and sniffing matches in a cabinet behind the footlight. As a climax, Miss VU-ian sings, a young man accompanies her on the violin, and Mr. Corrigan chimes In harmon iously by cracking bells with rifle wads. Clinton and Rogers are about as neat a team as you will see in a season of vaudeville-going. They are just a nice young couple, who sing and dance pleasingly, wear good clothes and have a way about them you can't help liking. Joseph Reming ton and Co. have a sketch, "The Mil linery Salesman," in which some smart dialogue is neatly put over. if til Stattturj? dnmjramj rrquBt tip Itottnr of gour tirrsrurr at tip , prmtuj of tltnr Sfatr Stnr? lfil5-ir rroub Await Snrh Sstsnii, SUttwia bttwbag mmug, pfrmfor 7t iNtotmt tlUttiirrb Eljtrtmt iHitsir , " Jlouttrs I unless stopped.

Peat Bed Fire Spoiling Land. Sterling, 111., Sept 16. Fire in the great peat bed in Hume township threatens to undermine the township SOLICIT FUNDS TO BUILD ANNEX TO GRACE CHURCH A congregational meeting of Grace Lutheran church was held at the church last evening to receive repjorS from the building committee compos ed of Dr. C. M. Foss, Andrew JCempe and 'J. Bodeen relative to an exten sion to the church. It is proposed to build additional Sunday school rooms at the north end of the church, and the committee appointed to investigate the bids finds that the cost will be $560 more than is at hand for that purpose. A special committee of eight was appointed to solicit funds with this end in view, and it is expected that the amount will be raised by the first of next week, an adjourned meeting having been called for Monday night. The Sunday school has outgrown its presen? quarters and additional (room is necessary fcr the continued growth of the school. The Anwr.

The trip consisted of It was not without a few misgivings that we sought out the Average Young Man for the present interview. We were not quite sure that he would re gard the discussion we proposed to en gage him in with seemly mood. Youth frequently prefers to be flippant and practice its wit when the topic at hand is an earnest one. But duty is duty and we had been dispatched to ques tion the A. Y. M. on matrimony. Young people today, we had been told, were marrying at an earlier age. Was this well? we were to ask him, and what did he think of the married life, any way? When we surprised him at his work he was -singing a popular song, the words of which seem to dwell on the joys of parentage, and we interrupted him when he reached the part "Fath er's so happy he's jumping for joy." Here was the opening we sought "Mr. A. Y. M, we would like to ask you to grow voluble on the subject of matrimony. Would you please scale the heights of grandiloquence and help us dash off 300 words on Spousal Caree and their subsequent delights? Are. you in favor of Hymen's Hazard or are you not?" We nervously awaited the reply. "Y'ou seem to speak earnestly," said the Average Y. M.. "so I'll do the same for you. There Is, I know, the youthful male person who regards the married state as a snare and a delu sion and he smiles to himself that he is clever enough to avoid it Vodevil, comic weeklies and the movie com edies have seized upon certain as pects of the dual life and hold them up to outrage and ridicule.

If there is a single housekeeper in this city today who uses the old time, worn, out-of-dat.e expressions, "I can't think of anything to cook," "It's the same old thing over and over," she had better put on her hat and coat and go down to the market Rows of rich purple grapes, entic ingly placed, and .beside them tiny red ones, then delicate green ones, and final rows of Malagas which are mixed in color, all giving a picture not soon forgotten, to say nothing of plums of all colors and sizes, to matoes, large and small, red and yellow, I could see the most beautiful salads and preserves made from these. s System In Marketing. Peppers, cucumbers and cauli flower which were carefully laid out, I picture all made up in tho most delicious, appetizing chow-chow and there must have been many other women of the same mind aa myself. for they were there with bags and baskets ready for carrying home in automobile or street car. They add a pretty bit of color when Clled with celery, carro's, white and red cab nage, parsley ana at, last on top a rich purp'.e egg .plant or two. I be lieve women are learning to market and take pleasure in it. These are the ones who no doubt have their work in t,he home planned and sys tematized so that when market day come they can leave home and leave it in a settled condition, not in an upheaval. This spoils the marketing for any woman if she has to consciously or unconsciously have left-over things on her mind to be dene after her re turn home. Go into a store or stand on a st,reet corner and watch the strpiinei forried looks on women's faces. Tt is lecause they carry to.i much in their minds. Find out what there is to do and the time necessary to do it Do it and then forget it. If it can't be dene, forget it, too, then whether shopping or marketing, with no other worries on the mind, it, will be a pleasure, and when thla is true tnere i3 very little if any fatigue. If possible know before leaving home Just what is to be purchased then the selections may be made quickly and easily, and when this is dene pigeon-ho'e it, and take up the next work or pleasure in the order planned, but don't have constant hang-overs. They are nerve-wearing.
