IMlTAToRs ARE GOOD ACTORS
Stars Who Began Careers by imper-
sonating Popular Favorites.

The gift of being able to initiate
well-known players has put money
into the pockets of many actors. Elsie
Janis was able in one year TO step
from the position of an unknown
actress to a successful star by her
ability to initiate the idiosyncrasies OF
such popular favorites as Sam Ber-
nard, George Cohan and Marie Dress
Ter. David WarJield began his stage
career by giving limitations. Cecilia
LOTUS made her reputation as an imi-
tator, and in spite of her success as
a legitimate actress often returns to
vaudeville to give her limitations.
An interesting story is told of how
Edwin Booth once initiated himself.
1t was at his brothers benefit, and he
was standing in the wings while an
actor was giving limitations on the
stage. One of the limitations was to
be of Booth, and in a spirit OF fun the
great tragedian offered to go on and
give the imitation himself. He put on
the actors wig and went on the stage
and delivered Hamlet's soliloquy. The
next morning the papers spoke OF the
personation as vile and bad enough
to make Booth shudder If he had seer

Toole, the noted English comedian
who died last summer. had deep vein
of pathos, and he was always gratifted
when this part of his talent made an
effect. He was playing In one OF the
smaller towns of the United States In
a touching little one,act piece called
"Off the Line when his attention was
called to a man standing in the wings
who was deeply affected. II couldn't
help noticing hts emotion" said Toole.
1T was SO evidently genuine, and, OF
course, so very complimentary. 1t
would not have escaped the sympa'
thetic eye of Charles Kean had he
been actor who had inspired it, and
confess this little tribute behind the
scenes did not annoy me.
but what did upset and astonish
me very considerably was the fact
that when | appeared as the Dodger,
one of my funniest parts, the man at
the wings not only didn't laugh, but
he actually cried There was no mis-
take about 1t, he wept, and when l

Mr. Holcomb. 80 many fowls went
