ORIGIN of Curtain Calls.

The first curtain call took place on
the evening of Feb. 2G. 1743. On that
memorable evening Voltaire's Me
rope" was performed for the first time
In Paris The author was known to the
Paris public hut nothing that they had
seen of his had pleased them so much
as "Merope," and the enthusiasm found
expression in noisy demands to see the
author. In a letter Voltaire says this
of the incident: ''They dragged me out
and led me by force to the box occu-
pied by the Duchess de Villars aud
her daughter-in-law. The whole thea
ter seemed to have gone mad-all
shouted to the duchess to kiss me.
The noise became so great that the
lady finally obeyed. So 1 was, like
Alain Charter, publicly kissed. but he

MAGNETIC CLEOPATRA.
Her Manner, Rather Than Her Beauty,
Was Her Chief Charm.

Her Manner, Rather Than Her Beauty,
Was Her Chief Charm.
The only authentic portrait of Cleo
paua that is known to archaeologists
is bust which appears on a series OF
coins. 1t Is on the reverse and bears
the inscription in Greek, "Queen Cleo
patra. the Divine, the Younger" while
on the diverse is a portrait of "An-
tony. Dictator For the Third Time. Tri-
umvir"
The workmanship of the coin is far
from good. and this accounts in some
measure for the undeniably plain ap-
pearance Of the queen. Yet the like
ness. as far as the features go. is
true one. for the other coins of the
same series. though of different type,
give her the same features. an aquiline
nose. strong chin. a long neck and
narrow shoulders.
The fact is that her beauty was not
so remarkable as one would think from
the spell she cast over Caesar and An
tony. Plutarch. for instance, tells us
that her beauty in itself was by no
means Incompatible nor calculated to
amaze those who saw her." but adds
that the magnetic charm of her man
ner, the grarefulness Of her movements.
the perSuaSiveness of her conversation
and her figure were most attractive.

TAE SERVANT QUESTION.
How Friction Between Mistress and
Maid May Be Avoided.

Women spoil their servants because
they do not trust them. and the fault
is more with the mistress than with
the maid. for women who are edu-
Gated and mature should be clearer
and wiser In their dealings than wom-
en- who are not educated and who, be-
cause of their antpcedents and limited
experience. are so immature that in
many ways they are very like children.
If the maid suspects her mistress of
trying to get every bit of work out of
her that is possible and of paying her
the smallest wages that she can per
suade her to take. if the mistress is
sure that the maid will do as little
work as she can and will strike" for
the maximum wages. what else can
they be but enemies. how else can they
look at each other but askance? Fan
cy having in your house not only per
feet stranger. but one who considers
you to be her enemy. with the certain
knowledge also that she is unfriendly
to you. And yet that is the kind OF
discord which exists every day and all
day in 'the best regulated families"
A practical knowledge Of the work
to be done. an ability to convey that
knowledge to servants. to observe
without appearing to observe. to cor
rect without nagging and to show
friendliness without familiarity all
these will enable us TO give to maid
a sense of personal freedom and re-
sponsibility and a practical knowledge |
of the details of her work which will |
tend to dissipate the hostility engen
dered by years of misunderstanding
