The Mind Of the Modern Actor.

a
The mind Of the modern actor-we
speak, of course, Of the many, not Of
all-lies in his dancing legs, his side
splitting grimaces, his business his
exaggerations Of peculiar lives of to-
day. The mind thus devoted to the
lighter tasks Of POPULARITY, skipping
also from one authors jokes to those
OF another on a moments notice, as its
possessor skips from town to town and
from stage to stage, is not a mind that
can suddenly turn to the contemplation
and the study offShakespeare with any
hope that the lines OF the poet will get
the better of the encounter. The actor
who Is to play Shakespeare acceptably
must not frivol away his intellectual
dignity. One cannot sing MARY Had
Little Lamb" with all the enthusi-
asm of his soul for 300 nights and
hope to be equal to the Magnificent or a
TIE Deum or Siegfried's Rhine journey
on the three hundred and first night.
The tasks to which the modern English
ana American manager puts the Eng
lish and American actor have destroy
ed the old school Of Shakespeare &C
tors. Now, We are not saying that
this Is not for the best; that in the
processes Of the evolution of the arts
the theater has not naturally become

SET ADRIFT BY THEIR CAPTAIN.

 Anxious Time.

He was Crazy and They Had an Anxious Time.
 Adrift in a twenty-foot yawlboat, 106 miles off the coast of Yucatan, with live cans of corn, two cans of |tomatoes, two pounds of fat boiled pork, 1.-two pounds of crackers and five gallons of water--tllis is the fix in which Will liam T. Hendrick and John Drew, the former the white mate, and the later, a negro deckhand on the three-masted sailing vessel Richard Bingham of Pen sacola, found themselves on the after noon of July 8. They had been marooned by captain who, they say, was tenn porarily crazed. The two men were brought up on the United Fruit Com pany's steamship Anselm, which arrived here yesterday from British Honduras. They had been put aboard the Anselm by the consul at Belize, having gone thither after landing at Cozumel Island.
 According to the story told by Hen drick, Capt. R. I. Merritt of Pensacola, the master of the Richard Bingham, be- gan to act queerly on July 3. He was haunted by the idea that Hendrick and Drew wanted to kill him. He armed himself with two pistols and Win chester rife, and was never seen with out them. Once or twice he ap- preached the two men and told them that he knew they were going to kill him. On July 5 he told Hendrick he was going to tie him up. Accordingly the mates hands were tied, and he was

sUNBURN, THE SUMMER DECoRA-
 TTON '.% .


 Among the horses of the. sun is Fry threos. He is the fred producer.' All of them, according to the Greek and Latin myth, breathe fire from their lostrils," but it is this one that must be credited with those peach-bIoom tints common to late spring and the summer. A half hour out in the open will convince one that the 'red produ- cer'. is tainting the sunshine with his fiery breath. Hail Erythreos. s*
 Sunshine to the city youth, and age as we'll, is one of the luxuries of the sum mer., It is becoming to some; some it makeshideous; along with 1t may come freckles galore: there may be days and nights of discomfort and cold cream poulticing; but none of these possibili- ties rob the sunburn of it's charm. It serves an outward and visible sign of a good time somewhere. t fr
 Where did you get it?" addressed to the wearer of a newly borrowed visage will nine times out of ten, bring out the story of day, or days, spent away from town, and there will be touch of pride in the tone of the narrator. He will talk of tennis, golf, boating, bath ing and the like until you're sorry you got him going. There are those who will bewaih the fate that Drowned them. Nine out of ten are unwittingly or ma liciously prevarieating.
 Sunburn, when all is said pro and con, is distinctive joy of the summer. It speaks for the big outdoor world. It is the seal and sign of avocations which may not be pursued by most for eight months of the year, and those avoca- .tions fill out the census of the chief re- creative doings of both sexes and all ages. Sunburn is eloquent of fresh air, for the sunshine is the bouquet to the breeze. It is synonymous with energy. and energy is the teii-tate of life. The dead bleach, the living breathe and burn, dogma to the contrary notwith- standing. ....-
 sunburn burns. The first days out ing is apt to cook the back of the neck, the cheeks, the nose. the hands and arms and the hot breath of Erythreos reaches every exposed square inch. But there are scores of cooling salyes end lotions, with cold cream and witch hazel high on the list, to make sadness and signing endure but for a night. Everybody knows what a day, even in a nice, sizzling sunshine, means in this respect; but, safe to say, there will be no fewer outing seekers for this fact. Sunburn and love have many things in common, but, at any rate, both are sweet pain; both know no cure but time. ,
 And the season for this is here. Fry .threos is surely snorting. Those who have been following the golf ball on re- cent days, who have been at tennis or have chased the base ball about the lot know it, perhaps too well. Lay on, ,Erythreos!-Baltimore American.

LEGEND or ST. PETERSBURG.

On glorious spring morning toward the close of May two hundred years ago monlentous historic event took place in a very quiet way, with not even a chronicler to describe the details, says the London Telegraph. Woodland, water and a cloudless sky formed the framework of the picture, the fore ground of which was occupied with number of boats sailing on the surface of broad river and manned with war riors, fierce looking, oddly dressed and wrangling among themselves in loud tones. They were the famous "Bom- bardier" regiment which had achieved feats of prowess few weeks before during the battle with the Swedes, and their ''captain" was the most imposing figure of them all, sitting in the prow of stout vessel ahead of the rest. The weather was bright and bracing, and the breeze caused the face of the blue, broad Neva to wrinkle, as it lost itself in the Finnish Gulf. The captain stood with his back to the sea gazing at the smiling islands in front, which were literally covered with dense forests; in deed, had it not been for the noisy tongued men on the boats he might have fancies himself in a country there tofore unvisited by man. The whole district, Swedish down to a couple of weeks before, had recently been taken by the Russian troops. The captain" now landed on the most pleasantly sit uated and attractive of the islands, and, with a few of his officers, was making his way to the center, when curious sound in the air above arrested his at tention.
 Looking up, he beheld a great eagle Tapping it's wings noisily, soaring up to a dizzy height and then swiftly de- scending to a spot not far from where he stood He did not then know that it was. a bird famed by the men who were wont to load the boats with tim-

Der, but looked upon it's appearance as a good omen for his undertaking. Seiz- ing bayonet, therefore, he cut out two sods of turf, placed them one on the other like the beams of cross, then made wooden cross from two boughs and, pressing it into the sods, ex- claimed: ''In the name of Jesus Christ, let there be a church on this spot, and let it's name be those of the chief Apos- ties, Peter and Paul." And it was as he had said. The church, with it's gold en spire, now surmounts the terrible fortress in which many political prIso- ners have perished miserably, and the city around it is St. Petersburg, for the Captain of the Bombardiers" was Pe- ter the Great.
 Such is the legendary tale of the foun- dation of the northern Palmyra, which is said to have been jotted down by an officer of the corps at the time, and to have been laid in a gold casket, which still lies among the foundations of the fortress. But history gives us a more prosaic account Of the matter. Peters burg was not built on virgin soil, but on the site of a rising town. Novgorod. when a member of the Hauseatic League, had used the Neva as com mercial waterway, and the Swedes, well aware of its enormous value as a trade route, took it in 1917, built for tress on the stream Okhta, on whose banks town soon arose, inhabited by merchants, who owned as many as a hundred ships. In those vessels Rus sian produce was exported abroad and foreign wares were brought back to Russia. And so rapidly did the we'll being of these traders grow that in the year 170O, when Peter the Great began his war with the Swedes, many houses wee built of stone. Another generation and it would have been formidable stronghold of Swedish power; but on the last day of April, 17O5, Peter bofn- barded the fortress, and entered it on the following day.

QUIT WHINING.

A Plea for the Cheerful Soul Who Lives to be Happy,
 There isn't anything in the world more disagreeable than a whining per- son. ",
 He whines if it is hot. He whines if it is cold. He whines at this, he whines at that, he whines at everything. Whine, whine, whine.
 It Is just habit he has fallen into. There is nothing the matter with him. It is just a bad habit.
 The winner is generally an idle person or lazy one. What he needs is to be set to work--at real hard work, mental and physical. Some work that will in- terest him and engage his whole atten- tion and he will not have time to whine.
 We know two women. One of them does her own housework and takes care of her horse besides. She is happy and singing all the day long. The keyboard of her life sounds no whining note. It is a pleasure to be with her, a good, wholesome tonic to watch her.
 The other woman is so situated that she does not have to work. Nothing to do but to amuse herself. She has no zest in life, no interest in anything She is bunch of selfishness and whines at everything. Whining has become such 8 habit with her that her most casual remark is tinged with a whine. She is miserable herself and makes ev- erybody else In her presence miserable. She is weakling, a parasite, drag, a heavy weight on somebody all the time.
 Get the whine out of your voice, or it will stop the development and growth of your body. It will narrow and shrink your mind. It will drive away
