Hollis Street Theatre 
Grace George in ‘“Divorcons” at 
the Hollis street theatre has re- 
peated in Boston the success which 
she achieved both in London and 
New York. The. story of the play 
which is most interesting in brief is as 
follows : The French legislative cham- 
ber is discussing a_ new bill legalizing 
divorce. M. de Prunelles and his wife 
Cyprienne are living in the country. 
She has grown very weary and bored. 
In one of the purple patches of the 
evening she “rounds on” her husband 
and tells him plainly that men are 
veterans in the art of love and women 
neophytes when they marry; and it 
isn’t fairon the women. Cyprienne 
then informs her husband that she in- 
tends to graduate from such a stupid 
class. She has a lover—a silly fellow 
who has not as yet even kissed her 
lips, but because he is not her hus- 
band, she thinks herself devoted to 
him. To cut along story short, the 
husband and lover change places— 
superficially. only, and directly after- 
ward Cyprienne repents. Now that 
it is no longer unlawful her flirtation 
with Adhemar becomes much more 
flat, stale and unprofitable than her 
previous existence with her husband. 
It is the latter now who provides the 
spice of life. She becomes violently 
in love and tremendously jealous. In 
the end, of course, the lover is sent 
about his business.
