"Her Second Love-" and tho Important
Secret she Reveals for the Beneht OF
Women.
NetO York World.
Several years ago the American public
were aroused by the entree upon the stage Of
a little lady who had been previously but
little announced. She was one of an innu-
merable number Of aspirauts for public favor,
and had no instrumentality, aside from her
own talents, to cause recognition. In spite Of
this fact, however, she quickly achieved a
warm place in the heart of the public which
she has continued TO hold ever since. When
it was announced, therefore, that Miss Maudo
Granger would star the coming season in the
play I" Her Second Love-" written by Mr..
John A. Stevens, 1t was only natural that
unusual interest should be manifested not
only in theatrical circles, but in other
branches of the community. This was spe-
cally tho case, rs it was known that Miss
Granger had, for the past year, been in ex-
ceedingly delicate health, and the determine
tion to star in a strong emotional play was
the more surprising. One of the staff Of this
paper was accordingly deputized to see the
popular lady and verify tho rumor or an
nounce its incorrectuess.
Miss Changers countenance is familiar to
nearly every one ia the United States II is
a face once seen never to be forgotten. Feat

are surmounted by pair of large and deep
eyes indicative of the greatest soul power.
It is easy to see where Miss Granger obtains
the ability to portray characters of the most
emotional nature. She possesses within her
self the elements Of feeling without which no
emotion can bo conveyed to an audience.
The man of news found the lady at her homo
in this city and was accorded quiet well
come. 1t was evident at once that she was in
greatly improved health, which the express
sion and color Of her countenance both indi-
Gated.
as it true, Miss Grang er, that you con-
template a starring tour the coming season ?"
"Yes indeed. My season begins in Chicago
on the sixteenth of July From there go to
San Francisco, and then play the remainder
of the season through the eastern and west
ern states"
"Are you confident your health will permit
such an undertaking."
| A ringing laugh was the first reply to this
| question, after which she said:
Certainly. 1T is true have been i'll for
the past two years, but now / am wholly re-
covered. Few people can have any idea of
the strain conscientious actress undergoes
in essaying an emotional part. 1t is neces-
sary to put ones whole soul into the work in
order to rightly portray the character. This
necessitates utter abandonment Of ones
personality and an assumption of the charac-
| ter portrayed. If this is an emotional part
it is necessary to feel the same emotions the
part is supposed to feel. For more than a
year 1 actually cried each night in certain
passages of a part was playing The audi
ence considered it art Probably it was, but
those were none the less real tears and the
effect was none the less trying upon my
health"
But do you anticipate avoiding this in
the future"
"Not in the least. expect to have just as

"Yod speak Of knowledge of how to re-
tain health viii you please explain what
you mean by thatT
"You must be aware that women by their
very natures are subject to troubles and
Affections unknown TO the sterner sex. The
name Of these troubles is legion, but in what
ever form they may come they are weak
nesses which interfere with every ambition
and hope in life. believe thousands of
noble women are to-day suffering agonies of
which even their best friends and relatives
know little or nothing, and when reflect

this misery arises largely from an ignorance
of the laws of life or neglect TO carefully

bitter experience in saying this and l am

and how to remain in perfect health"
Please explain more fully"
| "Wvll. i have found remedy which
seems specially adapted for this very purpose.
1t is pure and palatable and controls the
health aud life as, believe, nothing else will.
1t is really invaluable and if all the women
in America were to use it / am quite sure
most of the suffering and many deaths might
be avoided"
"What is this wonderful remedy?"
Warmers Safe Cure"
"And you use it?"
Constantly"
"And hence believe you will be able to go
through the coming season successfully
am quite certain of it,"
g. few questions more, Miss Granger. Will
you please give me list of the parts you
have created and the plays you have taken
part in since your first appearance in pub

amateurs in New York aud Brooklyn.

two seasons, after thatssto the Boston Globe
for one season, aud then to Booths theater in
this city. Next / supported John McCul-
Tough, and afterward starred in Juliet Ca

and also starred in Two Nights in Rome,

the coming season, as have said, will be de-
voted to Her Second Love-"
As the writer was returning home he fell
into train of rnusng and wondered if all the
women in this land who are suffering could
only know Miss Granger's experience and the
remarkable results achieved by the pure rem
edy she used, how much suffering might be
avoided and how much happiness secured.
