TWO ACTRESSES.
By EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright. 1908. by Edwin A. Nye.

1t is reported from Paris that Sarah
Bernhard is making another attempt
to secure admission into the Legion of
Honor.
Two or three years ago Bernhardt
tried to get into the charmed circle
of French distinction, but the cabinet
refused to adopt the action of the
council.
1t Is to be hoped she again will be
unsuccessful and that she never may
be allowed to wear the bit of red rib.
bon on her breast.
And that is not a heartless wish.
When Napoleon Bonaparte instituted
the order and decoration of the Legion
Of Honor he decreed that no person
with questionable past should be adj
mitted. Doubtless the rule has been
violated, but 1t is nevertheless the rule.
Sarah Bernhard is woman of great
genius, but
Her life, as it is known and read of
all men, has not been above reproach.
Many times she has violated the moral
codes. Her career has been checkered
with many lapses and escapades.
1t may seem hard thing to remind
woman of her past delinquencies, but
Bernhardt is public character. She
is seeking public honors. The public
morals are concerned.
Much is pardoned to genius-too
much. And when genius is persistent
~ sinful it must be made to suffer the
same as mediocrity.
1t Is pleasing to turn from the ca
reer OF this French actress to that of
Clara Morris. the American actress,
who is about the age of Bernhardt
and who is spending her declining
years in the love and esteem of all.
Though poor in purse, because of her
generosity, she is rich in character.
She, too, like Bernhardt, came up
through great tribulation. She, too,
had genius and strove. But our
American stage celebrity, like her con-
temporary, Mary Anderson, walked al
ways the paths of rectitude
When misfortune came to the for
mer, an admiring world offered gifts
and tribute.
1t is we'll that Americans should hon.
or Clara Morris and that the French
people should refuse to decorate their
brilliant actress with loose morals.
Because:
The world everywhere needs a re-
vival of the stern teachings of moral
obligation and clean living.
The French nation cannot afford to
lower the ideals of feminine honor,
even for the sake of genius.

is BUSINESS REALLY BAD.
Testimony of Credit Men Indi-
Gates That Depression is Not
Great.

Chicago journal.
The New York Times has been
printing reports from credit men
in various parts of the country,
giving their views of business
thus far this year and their ex-
pectations of the future.
1t is surprising to find that al
most all these men, whose trade
makes them habitually cautious,
say that business this year, while
it has not reached last years
standard, has yet been equal to
that Of the year before. A cred
it man, for example, states the
Baltimore situation as follows:
"By canvass we found that
our manufacturing and jobbing
interests of Baltimore for the
five months of 1908 did a busi-
ness amounting to 80 per cent.
of what was covered by the
same period of 1907, but they
equaled this same period of
1906; 1907 was our best spring
season. We also found with
reference to business from the
districts where fruit products
are raised that it showed
an increase over previous years.
Our loss was heaviest in the in
dustrial districts, but on the
whole we had 80 per cent. of
1907 business.
Many other credit men make
similar reports from their Sec
tions, which lead to the belief
that business depression has not
been as great as has been sup
posed, when compared with con-
ditions only two years ago. The
country has not done the bust
ness it was led to expect by last
years progress, but has done
what a short time since was
thought to be a large business.
There is no reason for serious
alarm in that fact.
For the future, optimism pre-
walls among credit men, whC
seem generally to be of opinion
that there will be no half-yea
of the future which will no
show larger volumn or com
merce in the United States thai
the first six months of 1908.
