And many of our best artists, men and weinen who would) be star music-hall turus if they cared to, have been lured away-quite naturally- by the gigantic salaries offered in the United States.

Ad audience filling every available space at Queen's Hall recently listened in awed silence to a spiritualist speaker: who addressed an impassioned oration to unseen hosts of the dead, whom he de- clared he could see hovering thore" in the upper spaces of the auditorium.
