before the child understands anything but
that it must obey orders on pain of pun
iShmcnt; they are taught exactly as an
imals are taught, through fear of the
wLir. Girls, being more tractiblc than
boys, are preferred in theaters: in the
Circus, where physical ,urage Is rcqnir-
ed more than docility, boys are usually
the infant prodi2ies.
There is never any piayfnlness, fresh
ness, nor Gaiety of childhood in stage ba-
bies. They are men and women Of
smaller growth-as they say themselves,
sold before they are young" The stage
baby's theatrical life is one of icar-ot
punishment in the morning, of the audi
ence at night, the lights, the hustle, noise,
and confusion, behind ihe scenes. .-Cel6t

cry. In the morning, instead Of being
sent to school like other children, it is
taken TO the theater to rchearse its
''part." At night it is not allowed to
sleep and build up Il constitution for af-
ter life, but the weary puppct must 90

whom it is afraid. The stage baby is
forced to do without food for many con-
secutivc hours, to be up late, to face
storms, endure cold and fatigue, To tax
its memory, and to be beaten it for@ets.
The applause o! a large audience, 50

There is no innate talent for or love of
