ir^OMOND ROSTAND'S wonderful -Chantecler" is the dramatic sensation
^ cf lite world. In it Kostand proves himself to be one of the C"aj«'
atis'.s of all times. "Chantecler' is not only the greatest play cf the ccn
tury. it is the one great play of the
1 ist hundred years. It is an exqui-
site story, palpitating with human
sympathy and interest. It warms
the blood — stirs the emotions —
arouses every commendable senti-
ment. " Chantecler" sparkles with
wit—counsels with wise philoso-

idiom—while the tcnes of the hour

are heard through the medium of
" Chantecler's" deliciously up-to-

sufficient superlatives to describe it.
Only reading and study will enable
you to appreciate it. It has aroused
