her cheeks sank in bit; but she kept her
eyes resolutely fastened on the goal Of, her
ambition, and plugged, plugged along.
And. to cut the story short, she is still to
be found in the chorus today, getting four
dollars week more than when she began six
years ago. She is only twenty-three years
old; but she looks thirty-fve. She is broken
in spirit; but she steadfastly. keeps at it,
pursuing the mirage of her ambition. She is
doomed to the. chorus. She is beginning to
realize it; but she will not look the facts in
that some day" will never come for her.
3 I could 60 on and tell you many other
stories of foolish stagestruck girls that have
come to my direct notice. could tell you
of dear little girl who fell a victim to temp
tation, and, in fear and shame, left the COM
pany and wasn't heard of again. could
tell you of another girl who Tilted a nice,
clean, well-to-do young fellow in her home
town in order that she might take up her
career" on the stage and today is the drudg-
ing wife of an obscure road company actor,
compelled to sing and dance away her re-
manning youthful years back of the foot
lights in order to help support her husbands
drunken extravagances. And could 60 on
and tell you the story of another girl,sf

In most of the 3advice to stagestruck

Italicized words, @But if young girl minds
her own business and works hard, she will
succeed" How many girls, girls with some
serious ambition, are lured on to WEAKNESS,
disappointment, wrinkles, and despair by
that sentence and sentences like it! If girl
minds her own business and works hard and
has unmistakable talent, she may succeed;
but by no means is her success an assured
fact. Anyone who knows the theater knows
we'll that what 1 say is true. There are hun

dreds of girls who 60 on the stage, mind their
own business, and work hard-and get no
where. The cheap stock companies, the
cheap road companies, the choruses are full
of them. The stock companies, the road
companies, and the choruses are paved in
many spot with good intentions; but, alas.
the good intentions are so often futile! Sue
cess on the stage cannot be measured out in
advance, nor can its recipe be accurately
divulged. Work, ability, luck, -they all fig
ure in it, and am not at all sure that luck is
the least vigorous of the three.
In speaking this way to stagestruck girls,
can sense rejoinder in some quarters that
carries these words: "Ah, yes, you may talk
as you do; but were you not once stage
struck girl as we are now, and did you not
follow your leaning, and did you not sue
ceed2" No, answer, never had any false
illusions about the stage. went upon the
stage because had to. / have always lived
with my elder sister, and she has always
travelled with me. have had to work long
and hard. 1 have had no greater diversions,
no more fun, than any girl who has stayed
at home. It has been case of work day in
and day out-work, work, work!
Do not mistake me, however. The stage
has its rewards; for success on it brings
glow to the cheeks as success in any line
does. But the glow is not different from
that felt by the successful business woman,
the successful woman painter or writer, the
successful wife and mother. 1t is success
not success on the stage per se-that brings
happiness with it. But there are many diff
ferent kinds of success If have had the
good fortune to experience the stage brand,
I can yet think of another should much
prefer-and 1 speak not in the spirit of the
conventional discomfort, but rather in a
spirit of appreciation gained from expert
ence. The greatest goal for any girl is
home. Home and comfort and hddies-
why, beside them, the stage and its gla-
mour and its success are as empty as the
alter on a rainy Sunday morning in July.

Shoresbys can't come for the weekend; so
we shall have only the Carturights."
"The .Cartunghts can't come, either"
Anne looked up in some alarm. "What
shame! I'm afraid we, can't get anybody
else so 1ate.".
@And weekend alone would be impos-
sible,' commented Harley, busy with his
marmalade. -.
Anne laughed: 1--WE might get through
with it,. but want to keep you amused. 1
hold that part of my bargain,
II am very well amused, Harley said.
Then he laughed in his indo1ent way. "You
speak of ideals. You still hold them, don't
you? There little faint left in your blood
by long years of duty that still forces you to
have aims? Isn't there2 I feel it occasion
ally. I'm afraid you re. even having aims for
me. My conscience, which has slept for
years under uninterrupted dignifed idling,
turns over now, once in awhile. You re not
going to wake it up, are you, and make me
feel as if l might really get to work at some
thing? That's bad morals, Anne"
She flushed little. He rarely called her
by name. But she looked at him over the urn
with her clear, direct gaze. "Iwish you would.
Harley dropped his toast and sat back in
his chair II knew it! I've felt for as much
as three weeks that the comedy was seeking
to tend toward sterner drama. What do you
want me to do? cannot dig; to scrub am
ashamed"
4I'd have you write. suppose it is my
pedagogical mind; but it seems a great
waste for you to be Systematically idle when
you could write things ten times stronger and
better than any Of the half-dozen things you
have printed under name not your own"
@How did you know?' he asked in genuine
astonishment.
"Magic-and intuition. They are all
clever; but you could do lots better work
than that"
Harley looked at her in slow meditation,
and then shook his head. "Don't!" he said.
@Don't! 1t isn't fair. I've lived so many
years in interested enjoyment of idleness!
Don't make me disconnected now!"
Anne's look was wistful; but she laughed.
Every well, won't. 1t wasn't in the bond.
But you could, you know"
"Perhaps 1 could" he answered almost
reluctantly; @but it would take an Egyptian
taskmaster to keep me up to my job. And
somehow 1 haven't brought myself up on
Solomons adage. I've spared the rod right
along"
Anne rose from her chair Harley went
round to her. He took her hand and stood
