TO have received. We are already cal.

The salary OF the past was not so am
bilious II was a thing TO worry over
not to speculate upon.
In the late ffties OF the last century
Mrs. Drew and her mother received
SIG week for the two. Mr.. and Mrs
q. II. Gilbert received the same sum.
At this time the custom was 10 give
two plays q night with singing and
dancing between. The regular actors
also did these specialties. They sup
piled their own wardrobes as well, and
as the theater going public was smaller
there was necessarily constant
change OF bill The Sl6 was undoubt

The drst person TO receive a salary
OF three figures was Rose Eytinge, the
most popular emotional actress Of her
time. Her first salary rs leading wo
man had been S25. and at the time she
considered It great sum. for she had
started on the stage at 81 week.
