They were triumphs merited by splendid art She was
the greatest Porta Of all time because she loved the
role and because she lived it she enacted it, It was
her favorite role and significantly enough it was the
last in which she ever appeared upon the stage.
Those who have been privileged to hear her superb

Merchant Of Venice will recall glorious stage pres

. greater emotional actress and her personality won
her many admirers, but she had the golden voice
the splendid stage presence of the truly sweet dgn

knew them loved them BOTH for each had distinctive
qualities.
For Ellen Terry it may truthfuly be said that her
artistic partnership for "a years with Sir Henry
Irving constituted Of the most brilliant periods
Of the English stage. Their Interpretation Of the
shskespearean drama gave it tremendous vogue and
exercised profound influence upon the thinking and

On such night few ragged stars
get all but lost in the haze that

gay in coloring. Everywhere the
women and girls are smoking. - AT
