“A Tarior-Mapge MAN.” 
After ‘a phenominally success ful 
engagement of four weeks at the 
‘Hollis street Theatre, Boston, that 
delightful comedy of aspiration and 
accomplishment, “A Tailor-Made 
Man.” will, owing to existing con- 
tracts, move to the favorite Tremont 
Theatre, Easter Monday evening to 
continue there its triumphant career 
in public favor and popularity. 
Rarely has a dramatic offering re- 
ceived such genuine manifestations of 
unanimous commendation as have 
been bestowed upon this veritable gem 
of comedy construction; and seldom 
has the press of Boston agreed with 
such unanimity upon the excellence 
of the players as they have done in 
their laudations of the historic artis- 
try of the Cohan and Harris comed- 
ians, who give life and vitality to this 
humorously absorbing play. 
“A Tailor-Made Man” is from the 
pen of Harry James Smith and is an 
example of a genuine American com- 
edy that appeals with surety to the 
characteristic demands of an_ ener- 
getic American mind. It is a big red- 
blooded exposition of what a man of 
wits can do in a country that is re- 
ceptive to the value of grit and per- 
spicacity. 
“Tur BrautiruL UNKNOWN.” 
The Messrs. Shubert will present 
at the Majestic Theatre, Boston, next 
Monday, Apr. 9, a new operetta en- 
titled “The Beautiful Unknown,” the 
book and lyrics of which are by Leo 
Stein and Leopold Jacobson and the 
score by Oscar Straus, composer of 
“The Chocolate Soldier,” and “The 
Waltz Dream.” The American adap- 
tation has been made by Edward 
Paulton and special numbers by Sig- 
mund Romberg have been added to 
the score. 
“The Beautiful Unknown” is in 
three acts and was originally pro- 
duced in Budapest, where it ran for 
over a year before it was seen in 
Vienna. Since then it has run con- 
tinously in both capitals—despite the 
war.

MANCHESTER 
tion of a new three-act farce comedy 
called “His Bridal Night,” commenc- 
ing next Monday night, April. 9, af- 
ter phenomenal seasons of success in 
New York and Chicago. It is a play 
of mistaken identity, written on orig- 
inal lines, from the pens of Lawrence 
Rising, with revision and elaboration 
by Margaret Mayo, the author of 
“Baby Mine,” Twin Beds” and other 
successful farces. 
PARK SQUARE THEATRE. 
“One cannot have too much of a 
really good thing,” is a familiar 
inaxim. It finds most apt applicatioa 
to “Fair and Warmer,” the merry 
farce that is now playing at the Park 
Square theatre, Boston. Next Mon- 
day it will start on its 10th week with 
many records broken, and bidding fair 
to annihilate many more before the 
season closes. In fact, it may be said 
that seasons as they are counted may 
cease to be if this attraction has its 
way. For there seems to be no mat- 
ter of surfeit of its appeal, so firmly 
is it intrenched in its present run. 
One of the secrets of its success 
lies in the wearing qualities of the 
farce. It wears exceeding well, hosts 
of theatregoers coming over and over 
again, and apparently enjoying it just 
as much on the third or fourth visit 
as at the first. This because its humor 
MASS. 
is human and not dependent upon sur- 
prises or claptrap climaxes. It is pure 
farce of the highest type, and as such 
the action is smooth and flowing. reac'- 
ing quickly a high plane of comedy 
and keeping it up until the very end. 
SHUBERT THEATRE, Boston. 
One of the very biggest produc- 
tions which Boston will have seen in 
many years comes to the Shubert 
Theatre, Boston, April 9. This is 
the Hall Caine’s latest play, “The 
Woman Thou Gavest Me.” It is, of 
course, a dramatization of his own 
famous and widely read story of the 
same title—a story which, according 
to the publishers, has already had a 
wider circulation than any of Hall 
Caine’s previous popular novels, not 
even excepting “The Christian,” “The 
Eternal City’ and “The Prodigal 
Son.” 
“The Woman Thou Gavest Me” 
will recall to older theatregoers, in 
the way of its theatric size, both from 
standpoint of company and scenic in- 
vestiture, the great days of the Bos- 
ton Theatre, with its productions like 
“The World,” “Youth,” “The Exiles,”
