not say that Miss Russell is altogethe

what mouth it is! Nature did hel
best on that woman-and played one o
her eorriest jokes. 1t is as though the
relentless old bag was just trying what
could be done with perfect body minus
a soul. For Miss Russell not only lacks
the power to portray emotion OF any
kind; she has no sense Of humor. she is
utterly without enthusiasm. Indifferent
alike to her part and her audience, even
to her own charms. She is q plas tic

painfully accentcate her too evident

person skipped and coquetted

'ffer yourself living sacrifice to them.
