Old Actors And New.

Those whose memories go back 40
or even 80 years recall great individ-
ual performances for which they find
no equivalent on the stage of to-day.
Where, they ask, are we to look for
the equals Of Edwin Forrest, Edwin
Booth, John Gilbert, Joseph Jeffer-
son, Lester Wallack, John McCul-
Tough, Charlotte Cushman, Ristori,
Janauschek, Clara Morris, Mrs. John
Drew? l am myself enough of a
veteran to understand, though | can
not share this feeling. The tragedians
and comedians of our youth gave us
pleasure which we cannot now re-
capture, partly because their school,
their method has died out, partly
because we are now more critical and
less accessible to the mere hysteria
of emotional acting. One may quite
believe in the greatness of Edwin
Forrest, yet doubt whether he would
be found endurable by the public of
today. John Mccullough certainly
would not, any more than the G. V.
Brookes and Barry Sullivans of the
English stage.
Edwin Booth, in his great mo-
m1nts. was an actor whom any age
could not help but applaud; but how
unequal he was! and how often he
appeared amid miserable surround
ings and in plays of amazing bombast
and ficialty.-William Archer in

An excellent way of cleaning a
greasy sink is to put little paraffin
on a rag, and rub the sink with it,
and the grease will Immediately dis
appear.
When growing hyacinths in glasses.
take care that the water is of the
same temperature as the surrounding
air. Where possible, pure rain water
is best for use.
Butter will remove stains of tea,
coffee or fruit. 1t should be rubbed
on the linen or cotton and then the
material should be soaked in hot
water and a mild soap.
Many women are saving banana
skins to use in cleaning their tan
shoes. Rub the inside of the skin on
the leather; let it dry, then polish
with piece of chamois or cheese
cloth.
If when ironing anything white you
find soiled spot, dampen piece of
white cloth and put little cream of
tartar on, then rub the soiled spot.
You will be surprised to see it disap-
pear.
Cheesecloth pillow cases are good
things to keep on hand in the linen
closet. They may be made of the
cheapest cleesecloth, SO that after use
in a contagious disease they may be
burned.
When shaking or cleaning rugs
never grasp them at the end, but al
ways at the side. In this way the
fringe is protected and ends do not
ravel. The original shape of the rug
is also preserved.
For finger marks on white painted
doors there is nothing finer than just
whiting and water, rubbed on with a
soft cotton rag, avoiding the use of
soap, for the whiting will remove the
dirt and not injure the texture of the
paint Do not make the mixture too
thin. Wet the rag and dip into the
whiting is the best way.

Whatever objection there may be
to all suggestions for the pensioning
of ordinary civil service employees,
there should be none to the bill pre-
sented by Senator Jones for the pen
sioning of men in the lifesaying SER
vice of the country. The pension
system now applies to the personnel
of the army, the navy and the reve-
nue. cutter service. The officers of
the latter service are placed on an
equality with those of the army and
navy in the matter Of retirement and
retiring. pay. Service in the lifesav-
ing corps classes with tn services
wherein the pension system is now
considered proper.
The men in the lifesaving service
do their work at imminent peril of
life and limb. Sickness and broken
constitutions have followed in in
Vulnerable instances from the work
done and hardships encountered in
lifesaving during the midwinter gales
Off the Atlantic Coast AS compared
with ordinary civil service positions,
the pay of the men in the lifesaying
corps is scanty. Keepers of stations
get 5000 a year. below the average
for departmental clerks, while surf
men get $65 a month and this only
for a portion Of the year-Seattle

England's Agrarian Revolt.

The British political crisis now
entering the last of it's innumerab1e
phases, and which began when the
famous bridget was introduced into
the Commons as long ago as April,
is the outcome of the political creed
of the radical Lloyd-George. ''Its
passage, as the London News said
when the budget emerged from the
lower house, "establishes for all time
Mr.. Lloyd-George's reputation as a
great financial statesman Dema-
cog would be a more appropriate
word than statesman, asserts the
cautious London Spectator, which
like all champions of that conserva-
tive England in which great landed
proprietoTs are the pillars of the state
can find nothing too severe to say
of Mr.. Lloyd-George. Not to know
what is in that cabinet minister's
mind just now is to miss the meaning
and the Importance of a deadlock
between rich and poor such as has
not been witnessed in any European
country, perhaps. since the struggle
between patrician and plebeian I'M
der republican Rome. Mr.. Lloyd
George himself puts the matter in
the London Nation in terms even
more dramatic. England, he says,
has risen in revolt against her land
lords.-Current Literature.
