Terhaps Mrs. Graham may be again on the boards.

Surely no handsomer woman could ornament it with her person. "But does she act?" you say. I know not. Only I do know that she can write. I also know of a time she did nrlte.

It was a play, and from all accounts, it was a good play. She hurried oft, after its reading by the family circle, to consult a certain well-known producer. "Bad. Nothing to it," he sniffed, but kept the manuscript for another reading. so the etory goes, the producer a few years after, needed just men a play.

So he dug up the manuscript, rewrote the scenes that didn't ring the bell, and put forth the play, characters and all, as she had written it, with the most flimsy sort of disguise.

Eighteen weeks of packecj houses would, seem to "argue that this tparklhrg comedy ha the" full approval ofthe public.
