drawn to him many million readers
who, while carried along by the re-

Bread" In which she created the role Of Flossie Williams. It was another sur prise for the critics and public, and led to her appearance as a company star with Otis Skinner and Mrs. Le Moyne in the notable special production of Robert Brownng's Tn a Balcony" AS Con stance she had the most difficult role of the production, being upon the stage throughout the play, but skillfuliy car ried the dialogue and action in such fashion as to gain the most faVoraole criticisms from press and public.
 She appeared last season as leading wo- man for Kyrle Bellew "n Gentleman of France" in the role of Mile. de Ia Wire Her ability was shown in such fashion that MT. Bellew paid her a most remarkable compliment. Near the end or the season this star. in special perform ance of the balcony scene of Romeo and Juliet" made himself merely the leading man and made Miss Robson the star-a recognition on behalf of this ac- complished actor of the surprising merit she had displayed, and the justice of her aspirations to be a great star.
 In Audrey" Miss Robson has been fitted with a role that suits her in every way. Appearing first as the dream-child of the forest, full of the vague poetic dreams that she has gained from her contact with nature, she gives picture of sweet, ingenious girlhood.
