Miss Rujaero was most cordial and spoke very entertainingly of her plans and hopes for the future, though she is very reticent regarding her past - successes, which are really phenomenal for a woman of her years. Miss Rujaero was born in New Orleans, La., in 1880, she' was edu cated in New Fork City, and made her debut when 15 years of age at the famous old Peoples' Theater on ,thp night the late William McKinley was, (Irst elected President. Her remarkable talent was recognized almost immediately, and after having been oh the stage but two months was called upon to assume the leading role In the play at one-half an. hours no tice, which che so successfully enacted, the part was given to her for the re mainder of the season.'.- Then jloWly"for awhile she battled with, as she expresses It, "that glorious word fame." But she never wavered, as her success now shows, overy new part, every charge she made upon. Its battlements was a victory for her, until at last she won the guerdon. and having won it, she ha held It. Miss Ruiatiro seemingly puts Into prac tice what Dr. 'Samuel Johnson had in theory: "Exert your talents ; Snd dis tinguish yourselves, and don't think of re tiring from the world until the world will be sorry that you retire.' I hate a fellow whom pride or cpwardlce. or , laziness drives into a corner, and who does noth ing when he gets there but git and growl. Let him come out and bark as 1 do." When asked If she wai practicing this theory of Ir. Johnson's she ' replied: 'That Is rather, hard to answer.. I do not Intentionally follow any one's, precepts or aphorisms, but I will quote a theory I do believe In, because I think It Is prac tical. I can't give you the author's name, lecause I have forgotten It. ' He said: Why . imitate the weaknesses of great men, under the Impression that they are the causes of greatness? A great man With great whiskers Is a great man In spite of great whiskers.',' She sm'led and said "don't you think so? ' P'or the past three years Miss Rujaero has been an independent star. When 19 years of age her first play, "A Broken Heart," was successfully presented In the East. The play -is a realistic study of mining Hfe In the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. The pathos and humor so klllfully Interwoven by the young writer touched the audiences and the success of A Broken Htart" was spontaneous and complete. Miss Rujaero personally man aged and directed her play. Not only as a writer and aotor has Miss Rujaero displayed her genius, but a num- er of beautiful and well known musical compositions has been 'published by her. Runnymede," her latest ,tWo-step. Is now gaining great popularity In New York City. Several poems by her are lso popularly quoted. , Mlas Rujaero presents a vary striking appearance. 'She is not What would be called a pretty woman, . but she Is de cidedly handsome and stylish, with an un- usal amount of feminine charm. She has plenty of black hair and her eyes, almost of the same"Volor, glo-sj with a peculiar softness. ' ' ' i . ,, i 1 li m ' '.BV'. t".'V. BBBk..

One that carries with it an absolute:guarantee that it is the best possible to build al ways ha been, and always will be.
