That stage fright is an,alady which atfilets
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 the American stage,
nave placed her in the front rank of operatlc
sion that she is frequently attacked by stage
fright. Miss Tempest combines a voice Oh
extraordinary pitch and sweetness with the
dramatiesfervo of an emotional actress to a
a greater degree probably than any otner
prima donna now upon the English speaking
stage, and the statement Will be a surprise 10
thousands of her admirers whom she has I'M
Dressed as the personifieation of supreme con-
Gdence and self-control.
1.-The sensation is one of utter collapse, she
said,n it is truly an awful feeling and IS near
Ell to -seasickness than anything else | know
of. Players with a highly nervous organlza-
ton are sure to be attacked by it when APP
Droaching the climax of an important 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 p~ortraying
those parts successfully is necessa. lily possess
ed of a highly nervous and impressionable
temperament.
. In one respect a highly developed ner-
vous organization is indispensable to success,
as without it q 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 excltablltyl is a de-
cided advantage to an actress {.
SIN the way I lave described, yes; as a
general proposition, no.. The mental strain,
the intense application necessary to a proper

roles, undermines the health and often cuts
short the career of the conscientious and
ambitious actress. At the close of last season

thai enhanced the charming vivaclty OF her
manner as she remarked
"Ihave found that devotion to a chosen
pursuit is not incompatible with good health.
If all the men and women, the clergyman,
teachers, merchants, and lawyers in this
busy country, whose overtaxed brains cry
out in protest against the heavy burdens laid

am sure there would be a marked decrease
in that terrible, nervous prostration, which

! Americans. Success is, indeed, a glorious
thing, but believe me, health is better"

ST. VINCENT DE PAUL CONFERENCE
Quarterly Meeting Held Last Sunday
Rather QuInnss Address.


The quarterly meeting of st. Vincent de
Paul Society, in Hudson county, was held
last Sunday afternoon in the school hall OF
st. Paul of the Cross. The following ten
conferences were represented by their presi-
dents and several members, numbering in
all about seventy-five:-St. Patrick's, st.
Joseph's, st, Henry's, Our Lady Of Grace,
st. Nicholas, st. Mary's of West Hoboken,
St. Peters, st. Bridget's, Our Lady, Star OF
the Sea and st. Paul of the Cross. The
active membership of these confer
ences, January 1, was PIG. After
the opening prayer Father Quinn ad-
dressed the conferences, thanking them
for honoring the parish of st. Paul OF the
Gross with their quarterly meeting, and
speaking at some length on the great and
good work of the society, especially in such
times of distress as the present. He said the
st. Vincent de Paul Society is one OF the
best p-ropagandists in the Church, as it ap-
peals strongly-to the poor and brings them
there to think of God. CHARITY always APP
peals to the hearts of men, and brings them
think of the teachings of Jesus Christ"
President Guilfoyle read an interesting
report of the society in Mexico and Central
America. Thereports OF the various confer
ences, read by the Secretary, were very
gratifying, and showed large amounts of
money collected and expended for the poor
during the three months ending January
last. The needs of the poor were pressing
and constantly increasing. So many men
were unable to obtain work, II there was
little prospect of an improvement until
warmer weather.
