OF a little lady who had been prev ously but

merable number of aspirants for pub 10

A ringing laugh was the first reply TO this
question, after which she said:
"Certai lly. 1t j. true / have been i'll for
the past Two years, but now am holly re
covered. Few people can have any idea of
the strain a conscientious ACTRESS uldergoes
in essaying an emotional part. 1t is neceS-
sary TO put ones whole soul into the work
in order TO righ ly portray the character.
This neces states an utter abandonment or
one S ersonality and an assumption OF the
charac er portrayed. If this is an emo
tional part it is necessary to feel the same
emotions the part is supposed t1 feel. For

Constantly"
"And hence believe you will be able to go

II am quite certain of It."
"a few que stions 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

''I first played for some time with the
amateurs in New York and Brooklyn. lthen
went TO the Union Square theatre for two
seasons, after that to the Boston Globe for
one season end then to Boo his theatre In
this city. Next Isupported John Nc ,ullough
and afterwards starred in Juliet, Imille,
Rosalind. etc. Subsequently / created the
part of Cicely Blaine in the Galley Slave and
also starred in Two Nights in Rome, playing
! the part of Antonia. The past year l have
been playing in the 'Pl mter's Wife and the
coming season, as have said, will be devoted
to Her Second Love"
AS the writer was returning homo he fell
into a train of musing and wondered II all
the women in this land who are suffering
could only know Miss Granger's experience
