ACTRESSES HAIR.

Stage Wear Their own Hair.
Wigs are seldom worn by actresses on
the stage, and indeed why should they
be, when so many young women have
beautiful hair? The smooth, dark brown
tresses Georgia Cayvan wears in almost
every part are her own. Helen Dauvray's
hair is sleek, quite black, in fact, and
very heavy. tombstone Benefits hair is
soft, inclined to curl and of dark
brown that is a little reddish by day. A
few months ago it was short like a
boys; now she can just catch it into a
knob in the back, and she wears it
brushed sleekly back in shiny Jane
fashion, all the curl being suppressed.
That queer little pointed growth in
the middle of her forehead belongs tc
her very own hair, and she is wise girl
to show it. "Oh. yes, of course, she
pins on all those circles of close braids
at the back, and they hide the little
knob | told you Of" said the woman
who gave these hirsute facts.
But it is there, else the curls would
begin to ripple and James sleek head
would be ruined. Mrs. Kendals hair is
rather reddish blond by day. Kate
Claxton has chestnut red hair. She
does sometimes wear wig, but her
wigs are made just like her own hair.
Marie Burroughs has soft, dark brown
hair, and lots of it. She seldom wears a
wig. Annie Russell's hair is SOFT pale
blond, just pretty shoulder length. 1t
was her own hair she wore in Elaine
and 'Esmeralda,' though most people
thought it wig.
Beatrice Camerons hair is about the
shade of Miss Russell's, soft, and nearly
the same length. If she wears wig il
is almost always made the same color a.
her own hair. Fanny Davenport's haii
is not heavy, and by day the harsh vel,
low dye hurts it, though it is very pretty
at night. Odette Tyler has this shade OF
hair, and Snyder Armstrong. l have
heard that Clara Morris has red hair.
Usually she wears wigs. Modjeslla's
hair is dark. She almost always wears
blond wig for the stage. Effie Shan
mons hair is fair, and comes below hel
shoulders. When she does cover its soft
prettiness with wig it is usually one OF

brown, and she has plenty of it. She
seldom covers it with wig. Emma
Sheridan always shows her own hair. II
