THE ADVERTISER'S CHANCE

What an opportunity this would, be to rehash our favourite bathing stories, and to invent one new joke, Which would be as much as any musical comedy needs. The levies suggest themselves readily "Good Old Saturday Night!" "Whiter than Snow," "You never miss the bath tub till the tank runs dry," and "Come Dip in my Porcelain Palace."' Should this style of play prove popular it might make a hit to follow it up in succeeding summers with "In Esquimau Land," a realistic portrait of an ice-plant, with a visit to a carbonated water manufactory as a curtain raiser, or "The Cave of the Winds," with Eolus inventing the first electric fan.
