How Minor Actors Grow Famous.

Mrs. Madge Kendall in her racy theat-
rical sketches says: ~ have often been
asked whether actors who play minor
parts conspicuously well spring sudden
ly into more prominent positions The
question reminds me of an incident which
occurred in play by Arthur Sketchley,
the well known author Of the Mrs. Brown
series. Hehad written three act drama
called Blanche which my husband and
I, on tour at the time, were playing at
the Alexandria theatre, Liverpool. The
plot was taken from an old French drama
and consisted of a woman being falsely
accused of poisoning her husband 1t
was very hard work. remember, for
three acts for every one in the play. In
the last scene, when the villain steps for
ward and denounces the heroine with the
words, You poisoned your husband. / saw
youput the poison in the glass at such and
such a time black man servant comes
forward and says 'Liarr am sorry to
say that this was the only occasion for
genuine applause throughout the play.
So great was the success of the minor
actor that he Immediately jumped into a
most prominent position in the provinces
and became leading man. Whether he
has kept his position till now I do not
know, for have lost sight of him. New

A lady, somewhere in the thirties, haG
an enthusiastic admirer in little boy OF

pretty speech. bashful but fervent.
One evening she came down stairs

folds proved very becoming to the face.

Present and Old Ideas.

Between London and Edinburgh the
greater part of the journey is done at a
speed not exceeding 80 miles an hour;
the 100 miles between Grantham and
Kings Cross averages 81 miles for the
whole journey. and some time ago the
AIS p. m. train from GranthaIn was
timed to run ~ miles in 20 minutes,
mile being done in 48 seconds, or at the
rate of "a miles an hour. Compare this
with the anficipations of the last genera
ton. Ia 1895 The Quarterly Review, in
an appreciative article on the proposed
Woolwich railway, deprecated any wild
estimates as to speed. "We viii back, n
it said, "old Father Thames against
the Woolwich railway for any sum. We
trust that parliament will in all railways
it may sanction limit the speed to or 0
miles an hour, which is as great as can
be ventured on with safety."-The Nine

Paper In the Household.

do not propose to speak of the many
useful and wonderful articles that are
manufactured from paper, but, merely
Of the valuable uses to which it can be
put by the housekeeper. Few house
keepers have time to black their stoves
every day, or even every week. Many
wash them in either clear water or dish
water. This keeps them clean, but they
hook very brown. After stove has been
once thoroughly BACKED, it can be kept
looking perfectly well fora long time BY
rubbing It with paper every morning.
3 If occasionally End spot OF gravy
or fruit juice that the paper win not
take off, rub It with q wet cloth, bst
do not pat on water enough TO take on
the backing. I find that rubbing with
paper Is much nicer way Of keeping
the outside OF nay tea kettle, coffee Dot
and tea pot bright and clean than the old
way OF washing them in suds. rThe in
side OF coffee and tea pots should be
rinsed in clear water and never in the
dish watsr.)
Rubbing with dry, paper Is also the
best way Of polishing knives, spoons and
Hnware after securing. This saves wet
ting the knife handles. If a little -four
be held on the paper in rubbing tinware
and spoons, they shine like new silver.
For polishing windows, mirrors, lamp
chimneys, etc.. l always use paper in
preference to dry cloth.
Preserves and pickles keep much bet
ter if brown paper instead of cloth is
tied over the jar. Canned fruit is not
so apt to mold if piece of writing pa
per, cut to fit the can. is laid directly on
top of the fruit
Paper is much better to put under car
pet than straw. 1t is warmer, thinner
and makes less noise when one walks
over it A fair carpet can be made for
a room that is not in constant use, BY
FASTING several thicknesses Of newspa-
per on the floor, over them layer of
wall paper, and giving it a coat OF var

they fit from tree to tree, arrayed in
