by Far Most Of the Noted Women on the
stage Wear Their Own Hair.
Wigs are seldom worn 10y actresses on
the stage. and indeed why should they
be. when so many young women have
beautiful hairS 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. Johnstone Benefits hair is
soft, inclined TO curl and Of q dark
brown that is little reddish by day. A
few months ago il was short like a
boy!s: now she can just catch it into a
knob in the back, and she wears 1t
brushed sleekly back In shiny Jane"
fashion, all the curl being suppressed.
That queer little pointed growth in
the middle Of her forehead belongs 10
her very own hair, and she is a 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. Kendal's hair is
rather a 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 q
wig. Annie Russell's hair is a soft, pale
blond, just a pretty shoulder length. 1t
was her own hair she wore in Elaine
and 'Esmeralda, though most people
thought it wig.
Beatrice Cameron's hair is about the
shade of Miss Russell's, soft, and nearly
the same length. II she wears a wig 1t
is almost always made the same color as
her own hair. Fanny Davenport's hair
il not heavy, and by day the harsh yell
low dye hurts it. though it is very pretty
al night. Odette Tyler has this shade Of
hair. and Snyder Armstrong. have
heard that Clara Morris has red hair
Usually she wears wigs. Modjeska's
hair is dark. She almost always wears
o blond wig for the stage. Effie Shan
mons hair Is fair, and comes below her
shoulders. When she does cover its soft
prettiness with wig it is usually one Of
hair little more decidedly golden than
are her own tresses.
Julia Marlowe's hair is rich dark
brown and she has plenty Of it. She
seldom covers it with a wig. Emma
Sheridan always shows her own hair. 1t
is heavy and a pretty length. She wears
it in so many different ways in the diff
ferent parts she plays that she is often
suspected Of donning wig. Every one
knows Bernhardt's short crinkle Of red
hair. May Yohe has plenty OF smooth
dark brown hair, though she frequently
hides II under a short wig of reddish
brown, Isabelle Urquhart has quanti-
ties Of dark brown hair. Lillian Russell

lan's hair Is brown. Viola Aliens, too,
though she often wears u reddish wig.
George Drew's hair is dyed yellow.
They do say Ada Rehan's hair is dyed
yellow, too. and have heard she wears
wig always
Della Fox has short hair, dyed yellow.
Mnrie Jansen's hair is dark brown. In
The Oolah' she wore o short wig of the
same color, and brushed her own front
hair up over 1t around the forehead.
This is frequent trick of actresses wear
ing wigs, for few wigs look natural
aroGnd the forehead. Minnie Maddern's
hair is beautiful red, and abundant.
Maggie Mitchells is crinkly reddish
brown, and Lotta's is dyed yellow. they
