majestic and all-compelling spectacle

fairly fascinated audiences u r-pt,

days of old Wallack's.
George Rignold, Of years agone,
enjoyed his amazing vogue with the
matinee girl to such an extent that
his managers were constantly origi-
mating novel ideas with intent to pro-
long what was the longest run ever
recorded for a Shakespearian produc-
ton. He appeared in a special per-
Torrance of Romeo and Juliet" sup
ported by seven Juliets-one for each
scene. The prices for seats were
doubled: spectators reaped q mar
vest. -Four thousand women and less
than 100 men were packed into q
playhouse seating 1900. Like all
freak" performances, stage presen-
tation was disappointing, aside from
Rignold, who never was 80 rayed
over as on that day. Alas for the
seven Juliets! Only one-Marie VAIN
wright-scored; the other six were
Just bad-even for amateurs; but
Miss Wainwright owes to that oppor-
tunity the splendid career which has
been hers.

ut of countenance. But Rienold was
so scared at the spectacle that he
heartlessly went back to his dressing
room, where a caterer from a neigh
boring restaurant provided his meals.
Lester Wallack was idolized on
and off the stage by women OF every
age and type. 1t was he who pre-
dicted the sensational vogue Of Har.
ry Montague and it was In Wallack's
company that Montague became the
most popular jeune premier of the
last half of the 10Th century. Wallack
was wholly Indifferent to his own

YOUR WEDDING DAY
And the Famous Men and Women
Who Have Shared it.
BY MARY MARSHALL.
April 2s-WiIlian Morris.

lCourght, nB)
To most of US the poet. artist and
manufacturer whose wedding day fails
on April 2s is best known because he
gave his name to the Morris chair,
(which was just one of the new types
of artistic furniture that he invented.
William Morris met Jane Burden
when he was twenty-five. at the most
eager period of his career and surely
at the most susceptible moment of his
life. He was at oxford with his friend.
the poet Rossetti, and the two young
men chanced to see the beautiful Jane
as far as Morris was concerned, and
at small theater.
II was a case of love at first sight
as far as Morfris was concerned. and
Rossetti did not hide his admiration
for the girl either. Later. he often
reproduced the face of his friends wife
In many of his most Characteristic
paintings. In fact. this beautiful girl
was the embodiment Of the Rossetti
type of woman that has since become
well known through the paintings of
that artist. This is what Rossetti said
of her:
Her face is at once tragic. mystic,
passionate, calm, beautiful and sraci-
Gus, a, face for a sculptor and face
for a painter. a face solitary in Eng
land and not at all like that of an
English woman. but rather OF an
Ionian woman"
The heart Of william Morris was
Immediately set to beating at double
quick time. and.i ardent young poet
that he was. he struck OF these verses
to describe her:
MY lady seems Of ivory,
Forhead, straight nose and cheeks
that be
Hollow'd little mournfuIly,
Beata mea Domino.
Not greatly long my Iady's hair,
Nor yet with yellow color fair.
But thick and crisped wonderfully,
Beata mea Domino
Her great eyes standing far apart
Draw up some memory from her
heart.
And gaze out very wonderfully.
Beata mea Domino.
Her full lips being made to kiss,
Currd and pensive each one is.
This makes me faint and stand to see
Beata mea Domino.
Before long. Morris had met the lady
Of his dreams, and their marriage
crowned a brief but ardent courtshipS
apparently Jane was as deeply in love
as was William. In appearance he was
no less handsome than she was beau
tifuL He was somewhat below mid
die height, but of deep frame and stall
wsrt of physique. At this time OF his
life, he affected q certain carelessness
of dress which no doubt conformed
with the young girls idea of a true
poet. The life of William and Jane Nor
ris was one Of rare happiness and never
did the poet cease to derive new in
spirstion and joy from her wonderful
eyes and lips.

The stars incline. but do not compel"
wednesday, April ss. 1919
According to astrology the plane
tary indications for this day are not
important. While the Sun and Venus
are in benefiic aspect, Uranus. Saturn
and Jupiter are all mildly adverse.
It should be a favorable time for
women to seek employment or pre-
ferment. especially II they desire to
bespesk the patronage of persons of
influence. -
Singers, actresses and artists OF
every Vocation should beneft under
this sway of the stars, which. how
ever, is supposed to encourage eccen-
trio and extraordinary ideas.
Hotel proprietors. theatrical man
ayers and all who cater to public
approval have the forecast OF a month
that is profitable.
The Sun is believed to give TO men
of prominence added power to please
and for this reason the day should
be most lucky for those who desire
political favors.
The South comes under a direction
that is most promising. in that II
forecasts business activity and the
development of neglected resources.
The aged should conserve their
strength while this rule prevails.
Uranus and Neptune give prophecy
of an earth-consciousness concern
ing spiritual conditions. The re-
vival of some old order of teaching
promises to excite much interest
Theaters have direction that is
read as presaging the greatest public
interest and cs-cpsration. which may
