Heart Disease.
No actress ever surpassed Clara Nor
ris in the care with which she studled
fer part When she was studying
The part of Cora in ARTICLE AZ she
visited an insane asylum in order to
learn the signs of insanity. Cora was
not only insane. but she was dlshg-
urcd by hideous scar as well. Miss
Morris spent weeks in trying to Sc
cure a correct representation, ana one
day she saw in a street car woman
who had exactly that kind of disfigure-
ment. She studied it and reproduced
it; but her kindness of heart shrank
from reproducing it in such fashion
that the sufferer might recognize it If
she ever saw the play. So she work
ed over it until she made enough al
terations to feel certain that no enc,
not even the owner of the original
scar, could ever suspect the imitation.
When she was studying the part of
Miss Moulton. who was to die Of heart
disease, she visited IA specialist who
had number of patients suffering
from that trouble. He showed her
one Of his patients and then. to her
surprise and horror, ran the sufferer
up a flight of stairs that Miss Morris
might see the symptoms as produced
after an excitement of the heart. Miss
.horris was filled with pain and pity.
She made the poor patient present
of a bank bill as she was leaving.
The woman accepted it and then as
she was stuf1ing 1t into her glove
caught sight of the figure on the note
The size was so large that it brought
on a recurrence of all the symptoms
the starting eyes, the gasping breath
the widening nostrils. This time the
heart excitement was caused by joy
not pain, but Miss Morris was so over
come with horror and sympathy that
she hurriedly left the house.-Ladies

HIS FIRST WIG.
John D. Rockefeller Was Timid About
Wearing 1t In Public.


When John D. Rockefeller first
donned a wig he was apparently some
what timid about showing himself
with it in public. H. NJ. Briggs. who
was for number of years very close
" connected with Mr.. Rockefeller as
his personal bodyguard. writes in the
American Magazine of the oil kings
debut in his new hirsute adornment:
"One morning Mr. Rockefeller came
to church in wig for the first time
AS he arrived some time before the
services very few were present. Dr..
Eaton, the pastor of the church. laugh
ingly said. Mr.. Rockefeller we love
you with or without It, went with
him into the Sunday school. and we
passed a reporter. who did not fecog
nize him. told Mr.. Rockefeller Of
this, and he said. You surprise ME.
He inquired if there was Il mirror in
the church. and l took him into DR.
Eaton's office He stood in front of
the glass, and. finally getting it adj
justed, he asked me if it looked ali
right. l asked him if it was comfort
able. l really did think the wig made
great improvement in his appear
ance. He said that it was going to be
quite an ordeal to enter the church for
the service. l said, Mr.. Rockefeller.
you have gone through worse He
shrugged his shoulders. and we passed
into the church together If his pres
ence on previous occasions never fail
ed to attract attention the stir that
followed his entrance on this particu-
lar morning must be left to the imagi-
nation. After the service. when the
ordeal was over, he seemed as tic
killed. with his wig as boy with new
pair of red topped boots.''
