Is the rush of all kinds of celebrities te
the stage good thing or bad thing fol
the theatrical profession? People of good
birth and good position have at all time:
adopted the stage as profession either
from love of art or the harsh bidding Of
necessity. They entered it, as any mar
enters another profession, with view tt
make living first, and to gain fame il
the next place. The dream of fame is al
ways before the actors eyes, and is tn,
chief spur that urges on his ambition
, But just at present the stage is invaded
by persons who have already game,
name and fame. Mrs. Langtry
