THE ART OF ACTING.
Mrs. Fislxe Thinks Actors Must Feel
the Emotions They Portray.
The Criterion.

The Criterion.
There is always much to be learned
about art from an artist like yourself" 1 be-
gan.
''Oh, art! she answered. Zone is al
most ashamed to use the word in these
practical days.
"Yet surely it needs discussing badly
enough. Now, what is your own ideal in

it seems so pretentious to speak of it, does it
not? Now, the only way to obtain an APP
pearance of truth in acting is to teach your
actors the way of forgetting that they are
playing to audiences. Once the audience is
suppressed-once a company has unearned
the unfortunately too common trick of play
ing for effect, playing for points, illu-
ural.'
I'm a word, you aim at sincerity?"
And do you think that it is possible to be
impressive as we'll as sincere on the stage
without feeling? Do you feel when you

Way when you throw your bridal bou-

..But the emotion is there? Really there?"
Surely; yes"

Excessive Use of Salt.

Inc Clinic.
The use of salt as a condiment is so gem
eral and so universally believed in as neces-
sary that we rarely hear a word against its
excessive use, but there is a multitude Of
persons who eat far too much salt-eat it
on everything, on meat fish, potatoes,
melons, in butter, on tomatoes, turnips and
squash, in bread and on a host of foods too
numerous to mention. To so great an ex
tent is it used that no food is relished which
has not a salty taste, which is often very
delicate. Now, the amount Of salt required
in the system is comparatively small, and
if the diet has been rightly compounded
very little is necessary.
What are some of the evils of the excess
sive use of salt? The effect is to paralyZe
the nerves of taste, or pervert them so they
cannot enjoy a thing which has not a salty
favor, and in addition there is a direct tax
on both the skin and kidneys in removing
1t from the blood. Whether the skin is
harmed by this tax we do not know. Pos
sibly it is not greatly injured, yet we know
that few people possess a healthy skin; but
it is now pretty well settled that an ex-
cessive use of salt does overtax the kidneys
in its removal, and that cases of derange-
ment and disease Of these organs is due to-
this use. We advise our readers and others
to look into this matter and to try and d-
ninish the excessive use of this condiment.
We believe they will be better for it,

GLASS STATUE ON KENEsAW.

in plain view of Atlanta
The scheme also contemplates the great
est military national park in the world on
and around kennesaw mountain. 1t is
proposed to introduce in the park some nov
ell features, chief among them a statue of
White glass, eighty feet high, on the top of
kennesaW, the statue to be Illuminated at
night by dazzling light from within. To
give strength to. the statue which will typi-
fy American valor in the form of an Amer
lean soldier, the glass will have an interior
framework OF steel, and when lighted up

promoted by new order, known as the So

proposes to hold a meeting at KennesaW
about June q to prepare plans for the

Secretary Long was asked to save the

blood of the American nation; and you can
not shift from that point with the same
radius, without leaving out a portion of it.
That is the reason why Kennesaw has been
selected as the proper place TO honor the
armies of the West and the whole Nation

Have you noticed the change it sometimes makes
In a woman's face
Passive it may be, and dull and cold,
Neutral-tinted, and commonplace
When the sun falls it? How swift 1t takes
Meaning and color and soft outlines?
How strange new lights from the eyes will slip,
And new tints blossom cheek and lip?
The whole face softenS and warns and shines,
And the hair a miser grown OVERLOAD
Shows forth, of a sudden undreamed-of gold.
oh, there many a woman, East and West,
Must be in the sunshine to look her best.
Have you ever noticed the change it makes
In a woman's face
And her heart and her life. that were cold and
dull
And slightly inclined to commonplace,
When Love shines them? How there breaks
over her nature of gold,
Bringing out beauty unknown before,
Mellowing, widening more and MORE
Lifting her up till her eyes behold
Ever new blooms for her hands to Gull,
So she and her life grow beautiful?
Oh, there's never a woman, East West,
But must live in Loves sunshine to live her best.

to me.
Then we went back for a moment to the

but one true tone in which each can find
utterance. And try to find it,

wrong standard of manhood. The courage.
the energy and spirit that make up the
qualities that carry men to the highest
points of soldiership are entirely neg
lected.
The boys who come out of the offices and
stores where they have been serving, the
young fellows who have been studying pro-
LESSONS and teaching in schools are not
likely to be great, burly pugilists, but they
may be men for all that. In the four ire
mendous years Of the Confederate war the
men who on the Southern side, endured the
greatest hardships, the most exhausting ia
tigues, the longest periods of starvation
were not always the big-boned and heavily
muscled ones. 1t was the pluck, it was the
courage, it was the patriotism. it was the
proud and lofty spirit animating the soldiers
that enabled the Southern troops to per-
form, in many cases, phenomenal feats of
labor and endurance.
The only men in the Confederate armies
who were subjected to a rigid physical ex-
animation were those who were seeking ex-
emption from service because of physical
disability. The men who wanted to fight
were accepted, and the record is, that they
were equal to all the demands made upon
them. Certainly nobody can show to the
contrary.

plained, was not to prevent an upris- ing, for none was feared and none was possible. There had been, though, some disloyal utterances and 1t was feared that unless there was an orga- nized movement to suppress incidents of this kind private persons in the present state of feeling would under take to do SO and there would be trou- ble and bloodshed. An organization such as has been formed, MT. Shew- man believed, would be a certain and peaceful deterrent, the best for the offending parties as well as for those whose loyalty might lead them to ex- ceSses.
 The meeting at Tempe was a very enthusiastic one. A subscription was taken for the purchase of a flag, 2Ox3O, and it has been sent for. The lumber company donated 40-foot staff, blacksmiths promised to contribute the necessary iron work. The flag is to be erected at the topmost point Of the butte and kept floating there until the war is over. The top of the butte is a solid rock and miners who were present at the meeting patriotically desired the privilege of drilling the hole in the rock for flagstaff socket.

HE'S HAD EXPERIENCE.
Something of the Colonel of the Cow
 boy Regiment.

Dr. Leonard Woods, who has been designated by the president as colonel of the cowboy regiment, was not se- lected by reason of the fact that he was the personal friend and family physician of the president. Dr. Woods has had a. great deal of actual experl- ence. He was stationed in this terri tory for several years and took prom inent part in the campaign against Geronimo He was a surgeon, but or one occasion was appointed to the command of a couple of companies and made one of the boldest and most energetic officers. He soon earned .--e title among the soldiers of Fighting Saw Bones." He once led a party oi Indian scouts and a handful Of troop CTS on fifty-mile march on foot III the Sierra Madres. Dr. Woods wholly abandoned his business as surgeon un- til there was no more fighting to be done. His conduct as an officer earned him a highly honorable mention, and it was no doubt this fact that prompt ed his appointment to the command of this crack regiment.
