If You Love Me, Tell Me So.

If you love me, tell me so,
Wait not till the summer glow
Fades in autumn's ohangeful light
Amb,r c'nn Ia snd purple night;
Wait not ii j tho winter hours
Heap Wa snow drift all the flowers,
Till tho tide OF life runs low
Ii you love me, tell me go.
Ii you love NE, tell me 30,
While the rivers dreamy flow
Holds the love enchanted hours
SSseped i'll music, crowned with flowers
Ere tho summer's dreamy days
Fade in mystic, purple haze
Ere is hushed the music flow
Hyou love me, tell me 30.
II you love me, tell mo so,
Let me hear the sweet words low,
Let me, in life's morning fair,
Feel your klsses on my hair,
While in womaphoods first bloom,
Ere shall come dark days Of gloom;
In tie first fresh morning glow
If you love me, tell me co.

Not All a Bed Of Flowers.


Managers of theaters, says the Sun,
in an article on the subject, tell me that
it's rare event when q lady calls to ask
an humble place, and whom she does, it
requires no over quick eye to detect the
printed copy of Romeo and Juliet she
carries in her hand half covered by her
veil.
Injudicious friends and hired teacherss
initiate the little head with inordinste
self-esteem, and ruin the girl before she
makes her first step forward.
And if teachers cannot make an artist,
still less can friends. Every year some
woman is puffed in the press, heralded
in society,"" and swung about the
circle Of amateurdom as an artist and q
genius. Occasionally manager is hired
to give her an opportunity, but usually
her hackers secure q matinee at thea
ter. The play is cast, the debutante
in the leading part, Of course. The
house is packed with friends. The cur
tain rolls up. An is expectancy: On
abe comes 81, 600 in flowers are thrown
to her. The play proceeds. Dresses
after act. The debutante is called be-
fore the curtain. A grand dinner fol-
lows-and that's all. Whya Because
the cool headed manager sees that bad
reading, faulty elocution, awkward
gestures, and inordinate conceit can be
cured or eradicated only by long ex-
perience on the stage in minor parts by
patient, willing, ambitious member. Of
stock company, whereas the gorgeous
creature who has dazzled her friends,
believes herself above criticism, and far
beyond the necessity OF the stage train
ing. That ends her.
Girls come here from the interior to
study for the stage. It costs them:
For board per week Observation-Disclosures. %
For washing, etc. .......-.. -...............
For car fare and ipcidentais.. ............. 5
Total. ......................$2 $28
Perhaps $25 can be made to cover all
expenses, but If so the pupil must live
on wind pudding. After she has had
three months schooling, she begins to
seek a position. The theaters are over
stocked already. The streets are lined
with real actors, who can get ho en-
ployment. She goes to the managers
off e day after day-her board still run
seeks " influence and nine times in
ten Influence condemns her with the
manager.
Let us suppose, however, that she
succeeds. What does she get9
MIR. DAILY told me that he was over
run with people who want to play for
nothing. To some debtaantes he pays
81 a week, some $40. and If they show
merit, he gives toward the close of tire
season as high as $15 week
But no Jtilias, nary Juliet, not q
sign of Constance but walkee
on and walkee of for the sake Of practice
and familiarization with the stage.
On the whole, is it not discouraging
outlook for the siehine Romeos and the
emotional Julietsa The best and great
est of them are restless, unhappy, and
full Of thousand disappointments we
know little of, and the inconspicuous
lead lives of elf-denial, privation, and
physical discomfort.
The tribune. [volume] (Beaufort, S.C.) 1874-1876, 1876-10-25

When the first newspaper was started
III Japan the editor asked Japanese
gentleman il he wished to have the
paper sent regularly. "No, thank
you I have a copy" he replied. The
gentleman of the old school had no idea
that q newspaper contained fresh matter
with every issue.
