Coprty THEATRE, Boston. 
For another week “The Night Be- 
fore’ will be seen at the Copley Thea- 
tre, where the performances the past 
two weeks have been given to large 
and responsive audiences. Harry 
equal the powers displayed as a per- 
sonal entertainer in all parts of the 
world. From beginning to end, his 
new play teems with quaint humor and 
amusing Scotch characteristics, al- 
though not a line has been written 
that is not easily understandable to all 
tongues. The work of the actors and 
singers, all Scots, in “The Night Be- 
fore” is flawless, and the impression 
is growing that Lauder has given to 
the stage a veritable “Old Homestead’ 
of the land. of his nativity. Miss 
Villars’ wonderful character acting 
and Peter MacArthur’s songs are 
tremendous hits. Another delightful 
*Toosie Tea and Scones” is scheduled 
_ for the Wednesday and Saturday ai- 
ternoon performances, with the entire 
company in the receiving line and the 
patrons all invited to participate. 
_ Evenings at 8.20; matinees Wednes- 
| day and Saturday at 2.20. 
“Tt Pays To ADVERTISE.” 
Plays that promote laughter are 
| more in demand than the sombre sort 
and of the former there is not in the 
| amusement field today a more pro- 
| nounced hit than “It Pays to Adver- 
tise,’ a farce in three acts, which 
| Cohan and Harris present at the Wil- 
| bur Theatre for the second week, be- 
| ginning Monday, Jan. 24th. 
It Pays to Advertise’ is a busi- 
| mess play and therefore appeals 
| strongly to men, but the plot is also 
_Tomantic enough to win enthusiasm 
| from the feminine portion of an audi- 
| ‘ence. The farce is from the pens of 
| Roi Cooper Megrue and Walter Hac- 
| kett, who have brought forth one of 
| the most laughable plays presented in 
Tecent years. 
jee te) Pays to Advertise” is one of 
_ those plays that can’t be told about in 
| cold type. It must be seen to be ap- 
| preciated, and that it has been appre- 
ciated is vouched for by its year run 
| Ps New York and another of six 
| month’s duration in Chicago. It 1s 
| Becented at the Wilbur Theatre by 
. ee original company.
