THE CHILD ACTRESS.
An Opera Singers Life and the
Hardships 1t Contains.
How Little COrinne Lives and Preserves
Her Wonderful Vitality.
Boston Globe.l


few years ago the public were startled over
the announcement that little "COrinne" the child
actress, had been arrested by the New York Soci-
etyforthe Prevention of Cruelty to Children Such,
indeed was the case, and the little girl detain-
ed for several days. until the authorities granted
her a release While in court she showed such I'M
usual powers of mind and training, even repeating
the evening prayer she had been taught, that the
Judge instantly released her. fully convinced tilat
the greatest care and no cruelty had been DestoW-
ed upon her. Since then little Corinne has grown'
both in stature and Accomplishments, has charmed
thousands by her voice and actions, and is to be
sent to Europe next year to complete her musical
education. Her mother is Mrs. Jennie klmball,
who was former member of the Boston Museum
company, and who takes the greatest possible
pride In her little daughters career. In conVersa-
ton recently she said:
'sYou can have little idea how careful it is neces-
sary to be in this profession in order to preserve
ones constitution and health We have been play
ing all summer, and during some of the hottest
nights 1t seemed almost impossible to go through
the performance. watch Corinne more carefully
than do myself, and am happy to say we are IN
perfect health and spirits. owe most OF this to
the use of Hoptonic, which | have been taking
quite freely There is something about this rene
DIV that is remarkable in giving tone and strength
TO the system. suppose it must be the Pepton-
lied beef which, they say, is one of its ingredients
and which contains so much abumen. At all events
1t has done great things for Corinne as well as my
self. When you consider the strain that Is on eve
cry opera singer all the while, and how the health
can be undermined you will not wonder that we
are glad to find something that preserves it and
gives US new strength"
Just at this juncture Corinne came In looking
the picture of health and animal spirits, and as
the writer thought of the hundreds of days and
nights which the little girl had passed in careful
preparation and performance he was not only I'M
pressed with her natural endowments, but also by
the wonderful remedy which has the power to SO
assist nature as to make good health permanent.

EZCENIA!

For the benefit OF suffering humanity, deem it
only my duty to give this unsolicited testimony III
favor Of Swifts Specific. My wife has been aiict-
ed with Eczema from infancy. We tried every
known remedy but to no avail. She was also
afflicted with periodical nervous headache,
sometimes followed by an intermittent fever, so
that her life became burden to her. Finally
determined to try Swift's Specific. She COM
menced seven weeks ago After taking the first
large bottle the disease seemed to increase; the
burning, itching and inflammation, became IN
bearable. She, however, persevered in the use OF
the medicine. After taking the second bottle the
inflammation began to subside. After the third
BEETLE the inflammation disappeared, and sore
spots dried up and turned white and, scaly, and
finally she brushed them off III an mpalpable white
powder resembling pure salt. She is now taking
the sixth bottle; every appearance OF the disease
is gone and Ter flesh is soft and white as a child'S
Her headaches have disappeared and she enjoys
the only good health she las known in 40 years.
No wonder she deems every bottle of s. 5. S. is
worth thousand times its weight in gold.
ANY further information concerning her case
will be cheerfully given by herself at her resi-
