AS TO ACTING.

Versatility is great and desirable thing-and g
certain and sometimes considerable measure OF
It is possible. Signor Novelli's declaration to
acting affords instance of the unattainable ex-
treme He says: Every really great actor should
be equally great in comedy, farce and tragedy;
the magnificent Hamlet should be just mag
nifcent a Drornio''-a remark which has sapient
sound and very little AIacready. It seems
safe to say was "a really great actor"-bUt who
would think of denying that recognition to the
greatest Macbeth in theatrical history because he
was not equally great David in THE Rivals? /?
Edwin Booth "a really great actor" if
really great actor set foot the stage-aDd
who would deny that recognition TO him because
he could not approach excellence in Charles Sur
face? Who that ever saw Edwin Booth In Hamlet
could expect TO see him act Dromio-or desire II,
ether2 The mind and soul that enable a
to be great Hamlet would inevitably prevent
him from being great as buffoon. Such dec
laration as Sgn0r Novellis shows lack Of both
studous observation and knowledge. The stand
ard that IL sets up of excellence in acting is to-
tally unreasonable. The professional proficiency
and natural qualifications required for acting in
farce lower and usual than those re-
quired for acting in tragedy II is true that great
versatility in the art Of acting is much to be
desired and that ii has sometimes been exenpied
The most versatile actor who has appeared within
the last fifty years Henry Irving, whose
range was vast and wonderful: everything that he
acted he acted well, and most Of the parts that
he acted were greatly acted: but the observer. If
any there be, who thinks all his performances
to have been equally great has observed but little
of acting Every great actor should be, and is
able to act every kind of character and to do all
things acceptaby. Twice two is four. To insist
that he should act every character in an equally
great manner would be as absurd as to insist that
a great writer should write IN equally great
manner with equal facility style excellence
of thought, on every subject: 10 insist that the
great writer of scientific philosophy should be
equally great q writer Of poetry-so that we
should have had Darwin producing the Elegy
and Gray writing THE Origin Of Species: Glib
bon producing Vanity Fair" and Thackeray 1.-THE
Decline and Fall" The great writer SUBJ
iect does not possess the natural attributes, the
syrnpathies the tendencies. the facility of style
or the faculty of expression to make him great
writer on all subjects-nor does the actor. No one
denies the greatness of Sir Christopher Wren be-
cause he did not paint the pictures of Van Dyke
or produce the statues of Michael Angelo. A little
more eremplffcqtioH of greatness by actors when
they eppear on the stage and less talk about it
when they receive the press reporters would not
be wholly unacceptable to the public w W.

EARLY PROMISES MAY BRING
REGRETS

IN ITS Editorial OF last week, the
Cecil Democrat urges the Demo
cratic nominees to get busy
and gather in all the early promises OF
support they can, before the other
fellow is on the move. Then follows
this remarkable bit OF political philoso-
ply Many votes are secured by get
ting the voter To promise carly and
while it may be that he regrets having
made the promise after the opposition
candidate is in the field, he will keep
it faithfully In other words, dear
candidate make every effort to get
your neighbor and fellow-citizen to
promise to do something that he may
deeply regret having to do. but which
he will feel compelled to do because
he has promised it, No matter how
uncomfortable YOU may cause that
voter to feel, no matter what regrets
you may bring to his kindly soul, you
have got his vote pledged, and its his
vote (and his vote 0nly) that you
want. But IS it only his vote that you
want? Do YOU care to feel that your
election has been secured by the sup
port OF men who regret having to vote
for you. but who do SO simply to be
faithful to a promise which they made
when they were not in lair position
to Judge wisely as to their course? Do
YOU not want something more than
this: Do YOU not want your fellow
citizens to give you their votes because
they prefer Your election to that al
your opponent? Is political office
