STAGE FRIGHT.
Actors Have Been Known to Die From

Actors Have Been Known to Die From

Perhaps the most terrible malady
which can attack the actor in the
course of his performance in the Pc
cu!iar disease known as stage fright.
Through its evil effects strong men and
women have been known to faint.
things, and there are even on record
several cases of people who have died
through this horrible seizure.
Some years ago young novice who
was to appear for the first time ar
rived at the theater very white and
shaky. Brandy being given him. he
appeared slightly better. but no sooner
had he set his foot on the stage than
he clapped his hand to his heart, with
a low cry, and fell down dead. The
overwhelming sensation induced by
stage fright had attacked his heart
and his theatrical career ended thus
even at its beginning.
Quite as CHASTITY was the case OF the
young amateur actress who, strangely

fright when playing with her fellow
amateurs, but who was seized with the
attack on making her first professional
appearance. She went through the
scene aided by the prompter, her eyes
glazed, her hands rigid, and when the
exit came 1t proved her exit from life's
stage as well as the mimic boards. for
she staggered to her dressing room and
fell into a comatose state, from which
she never recovered.
Perhaps, however. the most peculiar
instance of all was that of the veteran
performer who had gone through thirty
years Of stage work without experience
ing this malady. One night, however,
he confided to a fellow player that a
quite unaccountable nervousness had
suddenly taken hold of him and that lie
did not think he could ever act again.
His comrade laughed at the notion
and urged him to go on, as usual. but
his establishment may well be conceiv-
ed when the poor old player went on
the stage and, after making several
vain efforts to speak. fell back and ex.
pired. The doctor who made the post
norton examination stated that death
was due to failure Of the hearts action

will do this. 1t never occurs to the

be excused for saying 1T acts like

When it is a simple wholesome food
instead of any one of large number
of so called remedies in the form OF
drugs. he is more than ever likely to
feel as though sort Of miracle has
been performed.
A Chicago man, in the delight of re-
stored digestion. puts it in this way:
Like magic, fittingly describes the
manner in which Grape-Nuts cured
me of poor digestion, coated tongue
and loss of appetite. OF many years
standing.

was recommended to me, without re-
lief. Then | tried GrapeNuts on the
suggestion of a friend. By the time

with relish, anything set before me.
