The play is done, the curtain drops,
Slow falling to the prompter's bell;
a moment yet the actress stops and looks a.
round to say farewell.
1t is an irksome word and task
And when she's laughed and said her say,
She shows as she removes her mask "a face
that's anything but gay,
Acting is not all gaiety, lights, and ap-
plause.
There is a deal of drudgery, vexation,
and heartache that tho people in the front
of the house little imagine.
Mary Anderson used to advise young
stage struck girls to keep off the stage
The feverish excitement, the late hours,
the drudgery of rehearsals the unnatural
stimulus from new audiences rivalry and
applause, make the life full of perils to
health of mind and body. The careless
theater- going public have no notion of
the strain ON the nerves that is inseparable
from a dramatic career.
But members of the profession" know
what it is, and they have, as body,
learned how best to keep their nervous
system strong and capable of doing tho
hard work demanded of them. That is
why Paine's celery compound is SO popu-
lar on the stage.

VIDE CHOICE OF ANSWERS.
A German Expression Which Means Man
Things.

A German Expression Which Means Many
Things.
In the party which went to visit a
big German concert hall in the Bowery
were two or three men who. had a
knowledge of the German language,
ranging from a smattering to fair ac-
1uaintance. These ,men were extreme
~ ready with their information, so it
was quite natural that one of the
young women should ask:
What does that mean?"
THAT" was the title of compost
ton which was TO be given on the
orchestrion and it read: "Bei den
Schrammen."
Bel den Schrammen, thoughtfully
murmured the man to whom the ques-
tion was put. II ought to know what
that means. Let me think. 1t will
come to me in minute"
But it didn't come to him, in spite Of
his corrugated brow end his evident
effort at doing some tall thinking.
Then the inquiry was repeated to an
other of the party, who had been a
student in Germany. He rolled the
phrase off his tongue once or twice
and showed that he, too, was
''stumped.''
''Bei den Schrammen. Well, we'll,
that's queer. Oh, yes, it has got some
thing TO do with a sponge. 1t must
mean, by the sponres-' .-,

That's an odd name fer a piece Of
music" suggested the visitor from up
the state, in whose honor the expedi-
ton had been formed. The author of
the translation tried to defend it, but
its evident RIGHTEOUSNESS only pro-
voked laughter.
Then q third man took sky at the
puzzle. 81 believe" he ventured some
what timorously, that 'schrammen' is
a mechanical term-means some kind
of screw. Yes, that's it: BY the
screws"
There was a storm of laughter at
tered up enough German to ask the
waiter (who doubtless spoke excellent
English what tho title meant. The
waiter looked biankly for a moment,
and then had to admit that he didn't
know. But he would find out. He
hurried off, and before long returned,
bright smile on his face.
Its the same as 'Auf verlangen, y"
he announced, triumphantly, in Ger
man.
why, that means by request. was
the relieved comment of the man who
had started the waiter or the trail,
How stupid to make such fuss about
SO Simple a thing!"
But the ghost would not down. 9th
er men OF the party had asked Germans
at adjoining tables for a translation
of the term, and while no two agreed
on the answer, the decision was unan-
imous that ''by request was utterly
wrong. In the meantime the question
was passed from one to another, until
the gallery in which the aliens sat was
agog with discussions of it.
One man came up TO give his version.
He couldn't talk English well.
'Schrammen,' he said, 'it's one Of
dem tings what you tie a rope on when
you go on boat. You wind de rope
around like dis" and he went through
ths motion Of winding.
You mean the bits" suggested the
amateur yachtsman- But he didn't
mean that. After much cudgling of
brains, the word ''cleat" was hit upon.
Yes. that was It "SchrammeR" were
eleatS
Then it must be some kind of
boating song" reasoned the out-of-
town visitor.
This wasn't entirely satisfactory, but
just here one OF the walters brought
up a tall man with spectacies and the
atr of schoolmaster, and introduced
him as Herr Prof schultz. learned
man who could certainly tell what
they wanted ~ know. The Herr
