TO Play COMEDY PARTS
e Little Light on a Not Gener-
ally Understood Subject.
GREAT VALUE OF PANTOMIME.

BIZ. Fritz Williams, the Comedian of the
Now YorI; Lyceum Theater Stock Com
pany, Tells How Comedy Characters
Should BE Studied and Developed.
There are SO many actors in this country
who are much better qualified by virtue Of
experience and ability to speak of the de-
velopment of comedy characters that feel
4 not unnatural hesitation about rushing
into print on that subject. However, it is
not difficult matter to give my own meth
DDS and theories, which have one ardent
follower at least myself.
In the first place, believe comedy is much
more difficult to depict, night in and night
cut than serious work. In the former the
little crosses which are inseparable from
life, and especially stage life, affect ones
work detrimentally, whereas, with the lat
ter, exactly the reverse is the case. The
most important branch of the art from
comedians standpoint is pantOmime. Run
back over the history of the stage fora cen
fury, and you will find that the great kings
of comedy were all pantOmimic adopts. A
single gesture or a change of facial express
sion often brings a laugh, where a few
words, no matter how intrinsically funny
they might be- would scarcely force smile,
\ very good illustration of this theory
as we'll as of the truisn that the best work
"a comedian does is often suggested by the
audience is found in an experience of my
own. In Merry Gotham" a play which
was presented at the New York Lyceum the
alter, of the stock company of which l have
the honor to be member, l had a very good
part, and l made my first real New York
impression. The Grey Mare" followed
Merry Gotham" and on the opening
night, at my first entrance, l was compli-
mented by the friendly audience with what
we actors are pleased to call reception"
This was rather novel experience to me,
and l was SO taken aback while acknowl-
edGing the applause that l unconsciously
froWned. This l continued to do for some
time until l suddenly made the startling

SatolIi's English Sneeches.

One characteristic of Mgr. Satolli is
the power of his memory. His duties
require him to make frequent speeches
before American congregations, and
therefore IN the English language He
writes his speeches out in Italian, for
mulates in his own language and on
paper what he wishes to say and in Just
what words he wishes to say it, has
these speeches translated into English
by his interpreter and then commits
the English to memory. So wonderful
is his memory and SO thorough his mas
terry of detail that no one would sus-
pect from listening to his utterances
that he was not an English scholar
Although not understanding the words
he speaks, he gives them an infection
and pronunciation that are nearly per-
feet and proves that the power of imita-
ton has been strongly cultivated within
him, for he copies every emphasis
taught him by the interpreter. Boston

How to Take a Turkish Bath.

1t is not unusual to hear complaints
that the Turkish bath has induced con-
siderable depression, or even exhaustion
lasting perhaps several days, but the
cause of this is that proper precautions
have not been taken by the bather. The
baths must be adapted to the strength of
the patient. The bather should not stay
too long in the hot chamber, and the
bracing process should be applied only q
few seconds with water not very cold.
Twenty minutes is long enough for most
persons to remain in the hot chamber,
and safe rule is to leave at the first
symptoms of faintness or fatigue.-Ex.

EuSsrs Don't Pay.

a truth that is as fOrciblc on the M&inc

Where Amethysts Are Found.

The shores of the picturesque basin of
Minas, made famous by Longfellow's
poem "Evangehne," furnish many fine
specimens of the amethyst. After the
frosts of winter have broken and scaled
the face of the bluffs, then is the most
favorable time to hunt not only for the
amethyst, but for other minerals, such
as chalcedony, agate, malachite, calcite,
anolcine, apa4ite, natrolite, etc., found
there in the debris at the foot of the
cliffs. Minerals.

Gladstone's Perorations.

Perorations are Mr.. Gladstone's strong
est point. He may confuse his audience
with figures, overwhelm them with
words, but when the time comes for him
to round off his speech, and when his
voice, dropping in volume, takes on the
magnetic thrill that has helped to make
its owner a power in England. then the
audience mentally rises to meet the or
ator, to the outgoing thrill comes back
an echoing answer of emotion, and the
great master Of words sits down amid a
storm Of applause.-St. James Gazette.

Thousands of BOTTLES of His Cure
Within the Past Ten Days.
Unparalleled in the History Of Medicine.

There are not words enough in the Eng
lish vocabulary by which you could so
thoroughly express the confidence of the
public in Munyon's new method of treat
ing disease as the above true record of
sales during the past week
Ten days ago he gave away 1000 bottles
of his remedies, absolutely free, and since
that time has sold thousands upon thous-
and Of walls. Had not eight-tenths of
the people purchasing received benefits
from the same the sale would have de-
creased so rapidly that by this time the
cures could not be found in any reputable
drug store, and this system of treating
diseases would have been declared fail
ure. What a different state of things ex-
lists to-day. There is hardly pharmacist
in the city that does not carry a line of
Munyon's remedies. The sale is increas-
ing every day as your druggist will tell
you. Why? Because Munyon's remedies
cure disease. The public see it, hear it
and know it. If you yet continue to take
those nauseating doses Of poisonous drugs,
and pay the physician for no relief in the
face of such facts as these you deserve to
suffer for your stubbornness and be
laughed at by your healthy neighbor who
has been cured by these harmless little
pellets for % cents
