Naturally, she spends much time in read

edging that he is in the presence Of
great personality. There are no affecta-
tions about her manner, there Is no pos
ing, no talking for effect. no aggressive
enforcement OF strong opinion; but one
feels that her opinions have weight and
authority,
In talking with Mrs. Fiske. you realize
that her artistic method is the visible eX-
preston Of peculiarly rich mental and
spiritual equipment. And the versatility
of her work. its wide scope, Is an index
to her character. No one whose nature
was not broad as well as deep, and whose
tastes were not cultivated in many direc-
tions could give US such versatile work
in the drama.
Her natural temperament Is sunny.
She has sympathy with JOY and bright
ness. whimsical humor and the sparkle
or wit As We all know, the humorous
tenpera nent has also sympathy with
and insight into the tragical."

the listening multitude is aroused by

great chorus Of voices fills the air with
the chant, Christ is risen! The

EASTER FEsTlvlTY.

Something new" is the key
note of Easter.
Each guest must bring some
, thing new.
It matters not what the new
thing may be.
The originality and fertile
brain. of the guest decide the
problem.
Each endeavors to secure someI
) thing unknown to the rest Of
the party.
One may describe a new in
) vention: another tells about
new dish.
New styles of hairdressing may
be displayed; new book may be
, discussed.
Some will choose to wear novel
articles Of dress; others will con-
) coct new jokes.
New games, new tricks, new
) music. new Rotations, are all
included in the program.
; The idea may be happily utiliz-
ed by arranging that the "some-
thing new" shall be represented
by each guest (by pantomime or
otherwise), the others to guess
what is the new thing that is
represented.

A BUSINESS MAN OF MINNEAPOLIS

Minneapolis is a city where they
do things. Stimulated by a vigorous
climate. surrounded by fertile
country, peopled by the best blood
of the over crowded east, it is a city
of hustle, of great achievements
conceived and wrought out.
Mr.. Taylor, Of Minneapolis, Minn..
is one of this sort of men. A news
paper man. A political worker. An
Englishman by birth. He has been
in this country nineteen years. He
has resided in the northwest, VIM
nipeg, Fargo, and for the last ten
years in Minneapolis.
Mr. Taylor is friend of Peruna
and does not conceal his friendship.
He is thoroughly enthused with the
belief that Peruna is great remedy.
He has right to feel so. For several
years he suffered with dyspepsia.
This caused him to have very bad
health.
Newspaper advertisements would
never have influenced him to take
Peruna. 1t was friends that per-
suaded him to try the remedy. In
less than a week he needed no more
persuasion. He saw that Peruna
was doing him good. He is able to
say in letter to the Peruna Com.
