possessed of a supernatural insight into the human heart. He led a pre- carious life until he was old enough to attend Father Maguire's school. To this probably can be attributed his penchant for wearing clerical col lars and collecting crucifixes.
 But David, tired of school after a little more than two years and ran away to join a circus. He soon was
 billed as star, being the first child to leap through a flaming hoop while riding bareback in brilliant tights. His one regretein life was that ing posters with his picture and hail. ing. him as ''Davido the Boy Bare back Rider"
 But the circus stranded him in South America when he was taken i'll and . clown stayed with him, begging money to buy the child food and medicine. Belasco's father heard of David's plight and brought him back to San Francisco. There he went to school again, but not for long. The desire to be an actor was in his blood. Before he was 27 he had played in 200 parts Tn 'sUncle Toms Cabin'' he rose from Topsy to Uncle Tom, and ir Romeo and Juliet" he played every part except Juliet. Be1asco's thunder Belasco's rain, Belasco's forest fires and Belasco's oceans were so real
 istic when he was producing in San Francisco that his fame soon spread to New York.
 Daniel Frohman heard of him
 nearly 50 years ago and made him
 a partner in the old Madison Square
 theater. Thus started Broadway career that seemed to have no bounds. He continued to rise to fame
 despite occasional setbacks.

Every
Day
Sense

A BRIDE wants to know the
N most important qualification
that wife should possess.
That is q difficult question, but
off-hand it would be safe to
answer-good health.
The woman with a healthy mind
in hsalth body may land in the
divorce court, and often does, but
she will have a far better chance
TO succeed with her marriage than
any other.
The words good health cover q
lot Of territory. A wife may be
physically sound and yet be a
neurotic, and, therefore remain
miserable all her days. On the
other hand, a sound mind in an
ailing body has an uphill fight for
happiness.
The romantic heroines we used
to read about in our novels who
had been struck down with some
lingering disease, and who re-
manned perfectly angelic under
their tribulations, were figures of
inflamed imaginations. The hard
est thing in the world is to keep
sweet and good-natured when you
are i'll.
=
KXTOMEN, because Of tenden-
w cies toward nervous all
ments, do not always realize the
importance of good health or its
relationship to happy marriage.
They often believe that it is an
evidence Of nobility to submit with
few murmurs to their pangs and
to bear humbly and with resigna-
ton their physical weaknesses.
Entirely too many Of them make
a cult Of invalidisIn and believe
that illness makes women inter
esting Needless to say, til is
one Of the signs of the neulOcic.
Husbands who wonder why
their wives scream at the children
OF weep at the slightest provoca-
ton should hustle them of to
the doctor at once.
If we had more free clinics and
inexpensive medical service for
the middle classes and the poor,
we might have much less marital
unhappiness and fewer broken
homes.
