number OF actors arc, curi0usly, drawn
from the ranks OF comp)sitors, but
watchmakers, stockholders, hairdress-
ers and walters Also help TO swell the
dramatic army. As to the ladies IL APP

In confectionery shops are most sue
cessful behind the footlighta, probably
because young ladies occupying these
positions are generally OF the class
whose faces ARE thciI fortunes.

OF the stage are particularly subject to
this malignant form OF sinlucnza, as
tie theatres are nearly all over.heated
during mild winter weather.
