A Blowout at Ward Springs.

The bon fire last Tuesday night,
with Mr.. and Mrs. Gingery as host
and hostess, attracted all the campers
and a number of Sauk Centre people
who came out especially to partici-
pate. Among the latter were Mr..
and Mrs. Harry Parker, L. w. Gingery
and family and Mr. and Mrs. V. L.
Burgess. AS the Gingerys leave this
week for their home in Lincoln, Neb.,
after three months here, the affair
took on the nature of a farwell to
them. A feature of the evening was
the appearance of the young people
of the camp dressed as Indians. They
gave war whoops, danced about the
big bon fire and did other clever
stunts. Congressman G. A. Lind
berg of Little Falls was present and
made brief and appropriate talk, as
did city attorney, NJ. c. Kelsey of
Sauk Centre. The program included
an original poem by A. NJ. Welles, re-
citations by Mrs. o. Wheeler and a
vocal trio by Mrs. Alex Jameson,
Miss Erwin and Mr.. Welles. A ris-
ing vote of thanks was given Mr..
FGingery for his unfailing courtesy
and the many contributions he has
made to the entertainment of the
Ward Springs colony this season.

| gnawing ahead of the rattle Of the
plates. So we use it as sort of first
course. After growing for a few
moments, the phonograph announces
in a large stage voice, the title of
the song or selection and then gets
busy. We have about half a bushel
of records, and these are selected at
random and small prize is offered
to the person who guesses the right
address. Sometimes it is "Rain-in-
the-Face." Chief Rain-in-the-face, so
the song says, was a North Dakota
Indian, and from other information
gathered during the recital, we learn
! that instead of rain, it was something
stronger that the chief got in the face.
Before the song is finished, the In
dian is full, chasing himself across
the prairie, and we are all glad to
hear him go. Then there is 'F'lana-
gan at the Barbers,' who wished to
have his hair cut in silence. A phono-

Centre His Home For Years,
Called Above

William Meigs, an honored citizen
of Sauk Centre for many years, was
called to the great beyond at mid
night Wednesday, Aug. 25 at his farm
home northeast of Sauk Centre.
Five weeks ago he was operated on
for obstruction of the bowels. From
this operation he recovered rapidly,
but other difficulties presented them
selves. An abscess developed in the
lungs and it was this trouble that
caused death.
Mr.. Meigs was Al years old; he was
stricken in his prime and the blow to
his wife and two boys is severe one
and to them the Herald together with
the entire community extends SYM
pathy.
The funeral arrangements had not
been made at the time of going to
press. A more extended obituary
will be published next week.

Most Popular Actress in America Tells Her Own Story of Her Debut as a Star in New York

l as a star, how easy it seemed, compara- lively speaking, to have gone through a ! play simply as leading woman for pop ular star, carried by his enthusiasm There was another knock at the door, and right then and there I had stage i fright, and evety other kind of fright there IS, all in one. But my cue came, I suddenly found myself confronting a sea of faces-and with equal suddenness to play, vanished, and was acting. Ali ter 1t was all over I asked, Flows the play and how am ?" When MT. Froh- man replied, "All Figfit!" said, Please telegraph to my mother, And then I went home
 It seemed to me quite an adventure, and If you do not think that to make your debut as star is an adventure, just try 1t. But, instead of arguing this point, I want to tell how "The Little Minister" came to be dramatized for me by MT. Barrie. I do not think am lay ing myself open to charge of egotism in telling this because, quite as much as
 
 are blended as Ill none other the appar- ently opposite qualities of the whimsical, the poetic and the emotional, and to whom I am indebted not only for "The Little Minister" but also for Quality Street." Peter Pan" and ''What Every Woman Knows"
 It was chance that led MT. Barrie to :xx1 popularity of the Barrie novel led my manager to seek tothave it for the stage, but not especially for me. As the pro- fessional expression is, "he didn't see me in it." He met the authors agent in London and made an arrangement with him for MT. Barrie to dramatize the novel About six or seven months later, however, he received letter from Lon don saying that the novelist had made various starts at dramatizing the book, had abandoned them all, and finally had reached the conclusion, to quote his own words, "that it was impossible to find play in The Little Minister" There the matter practically rested.
 Some time later Mir Barrie himself came to this country, and having had ne gotiations with Mr. Frohman, although through an agent hescalled upon him at the Empire Theatre. MT. Frohman was out, so, as performance was going on, MT. Barrie was shown to an orchestra chair. MT. Drew was playing Rose mary" and I was supporting him. What followed prefer to tell in MT. Frohrnan's own words.

which they exact upon the face. Indiges- ton and constipation are the twin de- stroyers of a healthy and fine skin, es- pecially that part of 1t which belongs to the face.
 1 am often asked what think of com plexion masks and the efficacy of sleep ing in them. This is another method of suffering in order to be beaxtiful, and the results are not at all commensurate with the inconvenience involved. Our grandmothers used to frequently resort to these devices, and the old books on the care of the person give many recipes for unguents to be applied to the inner side of these masks, which were fastened over the face and worn at night l cannot see how anyone could sleep in them, and in disturbed rest one would lose any benefit which might come from an application thus made. No; do not recommend to my friends to wear masks over the face at night to improve the complexion. Be content with applying cosmetics to the skin, If it is thought that they are needed.
 
 the complexion may be classed the pro- cess called "stearning the face," for, in deed, it is something of 'penance. am often asked whether the results are beneficial and repay the trouble and in eofvenience. Steaming the face for the improvement of the complexion is comparatively recent method of ifnprov- f1,af 1.o1 e1r "A plying steam to the face for ten or fifteen minutes.
 Boiling water is placed in basin, to the top of which can be applied a cone Of paper so that it will fit it tightly. The face is placed over 1t, so that the steam can be directed upon it. This is valu- able in those cases where the circulation of the blood is imperfect in face and the eemplexion is poor in consequence. .

Not if the waiter knows himself Quick as Q wink he deposits the baby on a tray, rushes on with both, rids himself of them by showing tray and baby on to the near est table, and dashes off to fill his order. Plunged in despair at this very table sits Jones, Senior. Hearing a sound, he looks up. There before him is sweet William, served up like an entree at table d'hote, but alive and kicking!
 Thus end the adventures of the Jones baby, but they ended differently that night The baby was of such importance in the farce that my mother had advised the manager to get a dummy. But he demurred. He had found a nice baby just month old that would do splen- didly. Well-it did do splendidly until the critical moment when the waiter was standing tray in hand, ready for the cue to rush on with the baby on the tray.
