and the complete New York cast nnd j
I production at the Overholser theater,
j Thursday nighl, Feb. 9th, is being an-1
tieipated by the management and its.
clientele alike as an event decidedly
! out of the ordinary. Mr. Hopper comes
'he p'rmp of unqualified approval
by all of New York's dramatic critics.
"A Matinee Idol" ran for six months
in New York, being moved from one
theater to another until it had made
records at four of them—Da'v's, the I
Lyric, the West End and the Majestic.
"A Matinee ld<T' is a novel musical
entertainment. Its theme is borrowed
from Moliere's "Le Medlcln Malgre
Lul." Though tiie theme is three cen-
turies old, the treatment is thoroughly
up to date and amusing to a high de-
gree. Its music is by Silvio Hein, the

A stage full of beautiful girls is one
of the many p!eacing efatures of "A

READY FOR bHrtiNG.
Retail Concern Move Into New Quar
ters This Week.
On and after Saturday, Feby. 11th,
the Ladies' Sample Suit Co. will be
located in the two front room$ in the
Culbertson Hldg. This is only a few
doors from their present rooms on the
second floor.
'I lie success of a new innovation in
this ease is worth comment. Starting
with a well selected, though small
stook about a year ago this company
has built up a big business on ladies'
suits, skirts and dresses through the
fact that with their very small expense
they can sell these articles much i
cheaper than stores on a ground tlooi '
location, paying a high rent. This1
set ins very reasonable. Inasmuch as i
they buy the sample garments from
manufacturers they are always in
touch with the very newest styles and
this 110 doubt accounts for their popu-
larity with the feminine public.
Mr. Payton, the proprietor, who is
assisted by his estimable wife, are
capitally fitted for the business in
which they are engaged. Their cus-
tomers are numbered among the best 1
and most, exclusive trade in Oklahoma,
not. confining their sales to Oklahoma
City alone, a large volume coming from
outside territory. In addition to their
now and commodious quarters they
will retain rooms in their present quar-
ters -hence in line to vastly increase
their growing trade.
