do with it. Leaves colored by a frost
look quite ifferent from the leaves
colored in the due course of nature.
The coloring OF the leaves Is due to a
genuine preparation for winter which
goes on among the trees and shrubs
just as 1t does in the animal world
The leaves, as you know. are the
feeders of the trees. Now, as autumn
arrives and the time approaches when
the leaves must suspend their func-
tions, there is a great hurry in the ar
terfes, and veins OF the plants to ex-s
tract all the nourishment that is left
and to store it away deep in the trunks
and braches, to stay there through the
time of frost and snow. II
This increasesd activity, which sets
all the tiny pumps of cells working
from root to crown, extracts the mat
ter from the leaves which is known as
chlorophle, and which serves to give
the leaves their bright green colors.
All the alburnen and starches in the
leaves are changed into liquid ait this
time and pumped easily into the stor-
age houses under the bark, where they
are preserved, safe and sound, till the
following spring, when they furnish
food for new leaves and sprouts.

he could get her on the stage If she
would pay 5000 for the privilege. He
told her it was positively settled that
she should appear first at one of the
large variety theaters. He would
coach her in the part she was to play
and teach her how to make up and to
come through the sketch with such
success that managers would certain
" want her. ~
The girl raised the money. The
man who wrote the sketch, and half
I of that may be true. The rest, he said,
went for advertising and none of that
was true. He did teach the girl her
part and get her ready to act it,. She
bought, a new dress in addition to the
$780, There were many delays about
the performance Of the play, but 1t was
at last settled that the sketch was to
be acted. TO the girls establishment,
she was told to report at the vaude-
Vile theater at 10 o'clock in the morn

but the actor explained that new
sketches were always tried ait that
time. Only two or three persons were
in the dark theater when the two be-

was nothing more than a trial Of the
sketch.

take it, and, although the actor talked

The case Of the Philadelphia sing

last week by an obvious swindler who
promised to get her an engagement in
comic opera is by no means SO ex-
ceptional as it might seem. Many
other women have probably had sim
liar experiences and kept quiet about
1t. The credulity Of the stagestruck
woman when there is an opportunity
to satisfy her ambitions knows no
limit.
Not a day passes one of the rep
utable dramatic agents told Sun re-
porter yesterday, that some agent
does not advertise that he will secure
a place for a woman who wants to 20
on the stage or into vaudeville If she is
able to pay a certain sum of money.
Now, any woman ought to know that
such an advertisement is not honest.

Managers do not engage actresses III

These tricks are, In one form or
another, intended to part the stage

raised from her family or some other

offered a girl a chance to appear III a
