That stage fright is a malady which afliicts
the most experienced and capable actors as
well as beginners, is the unanimous verdict Of
the profession
Miss Marie Tempest, whose many successes
upon the English and American stage, have
placed her in the front rank Of operatic
stars, admitted frankly upon recent occa-
sion that she is frequently attacked by stage
fright. Miss Tempest combines voice of
extraordinary pitch aud sweetness with the
dramatic feTvor as an emotional actress to 8
greater degree probably than any other
pima donna now upon the English speaking
stage, and the statement will be surprise to
Thousands of her admirers whom she has
impressed as the personifcstion of supreme
confidence and self-control.
"The sensation is orfe of utter collapse, y
she said, "it is truly an awful feeling and is
nearer 70 sessickness than anything else
know of. Players with highly nervous
organization are sure to be attacked by it
when approaching the climax of an i'm
portant part, or when appearing for the first
time in a new play. Those playing emotional
roles are more susceptible to stage fright than
others, because the individual capable of
portraying those parts successfully is
necessarily possessed of highly nervous
and impressionable temperament
"In one respect highly developed nervous
organization is indispensable to success, as
without it proper conception and feeling of
the part to be acted are impossible You
know an actress must not only understand
her part, but be so absorbed in it that she
forgets her own personality, and for the time
being lives in her assumed character"
Then .great nervous excitability is a
decided advantage to an aotress?"
I'm the way have decribed, yes; as a
general proposition. no, The mental strain,
the intense application necessary to proper
realization Of the part, the apprehension that
the audience may be crilicising you adversely,

and the constant study of new roles, undersN y
mines the health aud often cuts short the
career of the conscientious snd ambitious
actress. At the close of last season 1 was
completely Frustrated by nervous excitement
and ovelwork. My nerves were so unstrung
thatthe slightest sounds startled me, and
became sleepless, melancholy, aud irritable.
Sick and disheartened sought the home of
an old and dear friend, who Immediately

which had heard much but knew compara-
lively little. l would have taken anything

had not consumed one bottle when | found
that my nervous system m had resumed its
normal tone. l no longer jumped at shadows,
my appetite came back, each night brought
sound and refreshing sleep and l am now in
perfect health and vigor, through systematic
use of Psines celery compound. The present
season has been the most successful, and
therefore the most exacting, of my career, but
the invaluable remedy which restored my
health has also preserved it, l have recon-
mended it to numbers of my friends, and in
every case with most fortunate results"
The beautiful prima donna looked the
picture of health as she spoke Her lsge Z
blue eyes sparkled with animation and -.
counteuauce lit up with an expressive -
that enhanced the charming vivaeity of her
manner as she remarked:
81 have found that devotion to chose n
pursuit is not Incompatible with good health.
If sll the men and women, the clergymen,
teachers, merchants, and lawyers in this busy
country, whose overtaxed brains cry out in
protest against the heavy burdens laid upon
them, were to embrace this remedy, ! am
sure there would be- marked decrease in
that terrible disease, nervous prostration,
which seems fast becoming national one
with you Americans. Success is. indeed, a
glorious thing, but believe me, health is
/ better"
