During the summer of 1891, Mr..
Chas. P.Johnson. a well known at
torney Of Louisville, Ky, had a very
severe attack of summer complaint.
Quite a number of different remedies
were tried, but failed to afford any
relief. a friend who knew what was
needed procured him n bottle of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy, which quickly
cured him and he thinks, saved his
life. He says that there has not been
a day since that time that he has not
had this remedy in his household.
He speaks of it in the highest praise
and takes much pleasure in recon-
mending il whenever an opportunity
is offered. For sale by Frame Green

Good and Bad Points of Long Runs From
tho Actors Standpoint.

Good and BAD Points of Long Runs From
tho Actors Standpoint.
Long runs, like most things, have
their good as well as their bad points
Good, because constant repetition so
identifies one with the character imper-
sonated that it becomes second nature TO
feel and act 1t. Iteration may in the
end make one mechanical, but at least
it insures a certain technique, which
when inspiration fails, rescues the work
from crudity. Joseph jefferson once
told me that in 'sThe Rivals he had
always gained an effect by pulling Off
the fingers of his gloves separately and
deliberately to accentuate certain words,
but that under inspiration he would
throw technique to the winds and have
the glove off with one jerk. Who that
has ever seen his Bob can forget those
brilliant green gloves and the fun he
got out Of them!
On the other hand, the evil effects Of
long runs are indisputable. Prominent
among them is general mental weari-
ness which often causes ono TO forget
the most familiar lines and to turn
blankly to the prompter's box or to
some friendly actor for the words This
happened to me several times, notably
in "The Winters Tale" in London,
where, after playing it 100 nights, had
to be prompted in several Of Hermione's
great speeches. Edwin Booth. during
the long run Of Hamlet" at hia own
theater, frequently called for the lines.
An actor who was in his company told
mo that Booth turned TO him one night,
and with look Of CONSERVATION asked
what he was to say next. His mind for
the moment had become blank. Tho
actor gave him the word. Booth began
the speech, faltered again, was prompt
ed second time, but finding it impos-
sihle to continue called out In q loud
voice, "Ring down the curtain.
Many other examples might be cited
