 GENTLEWOMEN OF JAPAN

to a healthy young life. The critic might add that 1t Is equally to be hoped she will inoculate us with her inborn polite ness, but I gather from conversations with Japanese that they fear that elabora- tion of courtesy will be killed by our plentiful sarcasm. Flowers of speech which are quite pretty in the land of the chrysanthemum nave to be dropped In our colder drawing rooms, and when our fair visitors return it comes upon them with a slight shock that the home style of politeness is a shade overdrawn. Every one who cares for the picturesque in man. ner will regret. this, for a return to sev- enteenth century suavity and ceremony which is what would happen If we accept ed the good lead of our allies-must have been entirely for our benefit As nation we are in danger of becoming too keen to be fair, too strenuous to be gentle; and of our alliance probably the best gift the weaker could give to the predominant partner would be something of the spirit of gayety and abundant courtesy.

ACTOR AND HIS MAKEUP
BY WILTON LAckAYE.

he registered. Some times he remained in the hotel, but often he took his grip and silently stole away. I finally said: "Why did you leave the hotel this morn ing?'
 'The lavatory was dirty" he replied
 You might wash your hands in your room," l suggested.
 'No," said he, 'it isn't that. but l have been travelling for twenty-five years and I have invariably found that in a hotel where the office floor wasn't clean the steak was tough"
 This, by the way, and apropos of the fact that in my experience of the stage, have never known a man who made up well to be bad actor, or a good &C., tor to make up badly. Thoroushness - thoroughness-in this. as in every art or profession, Is the thing that tells. The actor who looks the part has already played his prologue. He has obtained the suffrages of his auditors and they are willing to grant him action, manners, even words, which seem to belong to the type.
 Of course, in what are technically called straight" parts, there Is little makeup. If the author has done his work carefully and the actor has been properly selected, he should look to the part without much makeup. However. there are few parts which do not ad- init of some salient characteristics One man may part his hair in the middle. one on the side: one may be well groomed. another may affect loose fitting or ill., fitting clothes. The men we meet every day are normal or straight" characters, yet how diverse in little things.
 Some time ago a fellow actor at dress rehearsal, who thought my clothes too trim-and better fitting than his-said to me: T don't think your man would be so well dressed.''
 'I think he would" said I. "He Is bourgeois, but he wants to shine as a well dressed man and he would go to the best and most expensive place in town for his clothes. However, there s food for reflection in your thought, and I'll consider 1t, and If find agree with you, I'll ask you to give me the address of your tailor"
 Of course, when 1t comes to the dis cussion of distinctive character makeup, a book might be written about 1t. have simply confined myself to a general discussion.

ORDER OF CARABAO.
Enemies of Thirst In Army and Navy
 Organize.

If you happen to see an officer of the army or the navy carrying a short. slen- der black stick with a silver head, you may know that he Is Carabao.
 New the caraboa is the water buffalo of the Orient, and especially of the Phil ippines. The animal is so important in the islands that when some American officers who had seen service in the Phil ippines were casting about for name suitable to an order formed among them selves they hit upon this Spanish namo of the water buffalo, says the Washing ton Post
 So the Order of the Carabao Is plain English for society of the water buffalo.
 This society was formed not gravely, but in sport. All the officers have ab- surd and high-sounding titles in sort of bastard Spanish, and the doings of the society are wholly frivolous.
 In one particular the Order of the Car abao initiates it's namesake. The water buffalo is upon all ordinary occasions do- cile and gentle, but when the madness of thirst seizes the beast. which 1t does very frequently, all else Is neglected until the thirst of the moment Is quenched, and woe betide the person or thing en- countering the rush of the herd for water.
 It is so with the Order of the Carabao. When the members. few or many, are assembled and engaged in whatever talk or business, at the agreed thirst signal all else Is laid aside until every Carabao has the wherewithal to quench his thirst.
 It is only in rare instances that water Is the fluid chosen for this purpose. The haste and unanimity with which the assembled members of the order break off in the midst of whatever business or pleasure may engage them to respond to the thirst signal Is sight to move the mirth and amazement of the casual stranger.
 The distinguishing mark of the order Is the short. slender black stick The stick Is made of a piece of the water buffalo's horn. Upon the end of the little silver head appears the effgy of the animal itself, and on the side of the head are engraved the initials of the owner and his number in the Order of the Carabao.
 This little wand Is intended for neither offense nor defense. It is, in fact, the equivalent of the swagger stick carried by many British officers. This Is often as not light riding stock, and 1t is in- tended more than anything else to givo employment to the hands. so that they shall not find their way into the pockets.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1905-10-29

| N considering the makeup" of a part for the stage, the actor-I say the
 actor, not artist-is confronted by two advisers. One. the business adviser, says Don't alter your face Look bet ter if you can, but do not disguise your features, so that you cannot be reoog- nized at once. Let them know that they are seeing MT. George Guintz in Shy lock- not Shylock."
 This gentleman, who regards acting as a business, not art, has a good deal in his arguments favor. MT. Joseph Jeffer- son, "the dean of the profession" as he Is so often called by those outside of 1t, makes this point. He said to me on one occasion when was playing Reb shem- uel in Children of the Ghetto": T didn't know you for five minutes. It was not only your makeup. but the entirely dif- ferent placing of your voice that fooled me-"
 I suppose I beamed with pleasure at this compliment, because he then said: That pleases you very much, doesn't it?'
 Indeed 1t does,'' I replied.
 "You're wrong" said he. If 1 was de- ceived for five minutes, the audience was deceived for ten. Your name Is featured in the bills. It Is presumable that many came to see you. At least your man. ager must have thought so. You deprived your audience for ten minutes of the pleasure of knowing they were looking at the man they came to see.''
 "I wanted them to think they were looking at Reb Shemuel, and 1 should have been very much disappointed if I had been told that they knew me at once," I said.
 That's bad business" he replied, "and an injustice to your clients"
 To me this seems a clever sophistry, but there are many who agree with MT. Jefferson. Yet I believe there are a few Greeks who think that they should do what they think to be right and leave the ''business' of the theatre to the di- rection of the business staff. Some years ago, an actor, attracted by curiosity to the fact that when we entered a hotel. he always looked into the wash room before
