entitled. 1.-THE Edge of the Storm" Miss
Young, says the London Academy, is one Of
the writer's for the stage who, like Pinero,
had some practical experience of acting.
Such experience in invaluable, for one of
the rocks on which the playwright who has
no stage experience almost always comes
to grief Is certainly ignorance of how much
can be left to the art OF the actor. This is
more especially the case where adramatized
version of novel Is in question. A motive
or a state of mind requiring pages of de-
scription in a book can be expressed by a
clever actor or actress in movement or a
look. The novelist dramatizng his book
has a difficult task in deciding what he
shall leave to be conveyed to the audience
orally and what usually.
Marie B. Schrader in an entertaining ar
ticle written for the Washington Post, has
this to say of Mrs. Fiske, who has just
been scoring great success in Washington
in Mary of Magdala" and Ibsen's ''Hedda
Gabler:" IF Mrs. Fiske, the actress, en-
chants one, Mrs. Fiske, the woman, still
more fascinates. On the stage, the nature
of the character which she interprets is so
far removed from her own individuality
that 1t leaves pleasant surprise in store
for those privileged to meet her. The sad
ness, the bitterness, the hardness Of life are
all set aside with their proper roles and the
woman as she is appears sympathetic, nat
ural, vivacious, intellectual and always en-
Pertaining and interesting. When she talks
she says something worth hearing. When
she remains quiet, one has an opportunity

Smallpox Dangerous and Contagious
Disease.

on1tn-pOA DdnbttOuS anu contagious
Disease.
Now that one young man, who was
not vaccinated, has died in Reynolds
VILE from smallpox, perhaps people
will not think IL is disease to trifle
with and will not be so careless about
getting vaccinated. What few cases
we have had In Reynoldsville have been
in such a mild form that IL has not been
considered OF very dangerous nature.
We were handed a pamphlet the other
day, written from the highest stand.
point OF the sanitary authority, in
which IL is stated that people some-
times enormously call smallpox Cuban
itch and Puerto Rican chicken-pox.
This same pamphlet states
Smallpox is one OF the most highly
contagious and dangerous diseases
which afflict mankind. Before the pro-
tective power OF vaccination was known,
smallpox caused one-tenth of all deaths
OF the human race and one-third OF all
deaths under ten years OF age. The
great change which has been wrought
during the past century in the charac-
ter OF this disease and in the number of
persons attacked by 1t, is due TO the In
fluencc of vaccination, for which the
world is indebted to Edward Jenner,
who performed the first vaccination on
human being on May 4, 1896. The
contagion OF small .pox may be communi-
Gated from one person to another by
actual contact, or IL may be carried
through the air OF the room or from
place to place by means of infected
clothing, bedding, merchandise, letters,
etc., or by an article which may have
been infected. In more recent times it
has been noticed that in all probability
smallpox may be carried by means of
flies or other insects, by their picking
up the contagion existing in the se-
cretions and excrei ions of the body, and
in the exhalation from the lungs and
skin"
The above seems to make IL plain that
every person should get vaccinated.
Surely people should use all precautions
and preventatives against this loath-
some, dreaded and contagious disease.
A very bad case OF smallpox may be
communicated to some other person
from mild case, therefore, persons
who are unfortunate enough to get the
disease, even in a mild form, should be
willing to submit to all precautions
necessary so that they may not be the
means OF communicating the disease to
a neighbor.
