Joun Drew At Empire THEATRE, 
SALEM, TONIGHT 
The advance sale of seats in antici- 
pation of John Drew’s appearance in 
Salem promises a large and fashion- 
able audience to greet the leading 
American exponent of light comedy 
types when he appears at the Empire 
Theatre in the Witch City tonight. 
Mr. Drew is playing this year in 
“The Perplexed Husband” by Alfred 
Sutro. This four-act comedy created 
a sensation in London when it was 
first produced this year because of its 
satirical attack upon woman suffrage 
and the amusing situations that arise 
when “the new woman” is confront- 
ed with that almost unknown being, 
“the new man.” 
Other attractions soon to appear at 
the Empire are Pollard’s Australian 
Juvenile Opera Company on January 
27 and 28; and Mme. Schumann-- 
Heink, the world-famous singer, who 
is to appear in Salem on Monday ev- 
ening, February 1. 
MAGNIFICIENT PIECES OF FURNITURE 
PRACTICALLY GIVEN Away 
A. C. Titus & Co. of Salem, the 
great store of furnishings for the 
home reports to The Breeze that the 
volume of business done thus far by 
them at their big 20 per cent discount 
sale was more than double that done 
by any similar previous sale days and 
that it was unprecedented in the his- 
tory of this firm’s great distribution of 
goods; thus breaking their most nota- 
ble selling records of the past. 
Throughout these days there was con- 
tinuous heavy buying going on. Sev- 
eral people delayed their purchasing 
so that they might first attend the 
sales in Boston. The verbal expres- 
sion of all was that Titus’ prices were 
lower so they left their orders with 
the Salem firm. These facts certain- 
ly speak louder than mere words of 
the public’s increasing confidence in 
A. C. Titus & Co. and their goods, also 
of the far and wider extension of this 
firm’s patronage. ‘The sale continues 
until late Saturday evening. The 
Titus Co. carry such an extraordinary 
large stock of home furnishings that 
notwithstanding the great quantities 
already gone out from their large es- 
tablishment there is ample to supply 
the crowd which will purchase today 
and tomorrow. 
Too TRUE 
Parson—Why do you persist in 
drinking more than is good for you? 
Toper—To drown my sorrows. 
Parson—And do you succeed? 
Toper (sadly)—No, they can swim.
