' "The stagre presents but one new style f kissing this seasos," said Dve Bra 'ham Jr., the original "Push" Miller with the "CheckerB" company, the other evening- In his dressing room. Braham Is a deep student of dramatic art and every thing: pertaining: to it, and his entire leisure la devoted to keeping- himself posted on anything- new. "Usually," Braham continued, "usually, several new styles of kissing- are Invented during- the summer." "What is the new style called?" a friend Inquired. "The brush kiss," said "Push." "The kiss In Itself may not be new In Its idea to everybody, but I never saw it be fore and I am sure It has not been pre sented on the stage. In brief. It Is to tirush the opposlte's lips, or cheek, or forehead, with your lips. It requires, skill, delicacy, good taste and practice. 1 Correctly done. It Is a thing of art; clumsily done, a daub. It is what one might term a refinement of the old clinging kiss: or, as it is sometimes called, unnlcely. the glue-kiss. I speak of the brush kiss as a refinement of ef fect, rather than of action. There was no action In the dinger. It was a stayer and lasted sometimes half a minute. It was very real, when not overdone, and made sensitive people uncomiormoie. But it was not arttstKv -The brush kiss Is. 'There is a daintiness of touch; a colerlty, brief and brilliant as a shoot ing star. One mlght-oall It a pretty little sweep of the lips. It may, as I said, run across the forehead; some times across the cheek and sometimes the lips are the objective point of at- tack. "Is that the way . you kiss Cynthy In the second act?" "Occasionally, when I find Cynthy In the humor." Peter Pan Kiss Her Greatest Treasure tii 1 1 nit w i I U fill 11 I ras&siaRsH B - TO. I .ANNA. VnCATON" Those who see little Anna Wheatpn dancesing and fMrt her way through the three acts of "The Honeymoon ers" will hardly re alize that she has serious side to her nature, and that she has an ideal, one which will require the hardest kind of work and the clos est attention for vears to come to realize. It is Miss Whaton's ambition, to rise In her chos en profession. Miss Wheaton's Ideal I no less a personage In tne theatrical proreasion iuhii Maude Adams, and for this wonderful woman Anna Whea- ton cherishes an adoration that Is almost Idolatry For a season Miss Wheaton was a tnember of Maude Adams' company when the piece was "Peter Pan, 1,and the honor of being understudy to the famous ac tress fell to her. The time came when Miss Adams was compelled to vacate the part on short notice to Miss Wheaton. and It Is a matter of record that the little under study Jumped Into the role without a tremor and played it through without a break. Bhe received congratulations from all the other players and when her sixteenth birthday came around (No vmhr Z4. lsost. Miss Adams sent a very large tray of various things Into Miss Wheaton's room, and in the center of this tray was a small package which contained a gold thimble. Peter Pan's symbol of a kiss, and upon the rim was engraved "Anna Wheaton." Anna Wheaton was born In Savannah. Ga nearly 17 years ago. and comes from e-enuinn Confederate stock. Her grand father was Captain John F. Wheaton,. who was jnavor of her birthplace lor, Six years. She is related Jn a straight line to General Franklin Wheaton. and! tins a brother who Is in business In Savannah with the son of Admiral Hrhley. Miss Wheaton's first appearance on the stage was In a company which had Margaret' Anglin as a star. "The piece was The Kternal Feminine ana served to, Initiate her In the mysteries of make-up and the life behind tiie scenes. From the "Peter Pan" company she entered tho company playing "The Honeymooners" and has made a de cided hit for her excellent work as Madeline Tiger in this famous Cohan piece. Miss Wheaton is a splendid help to Mr. Dunlay, the star of "The Honey moonors" company, and aids him mate rially in several of his best scenes. Los Angeles, Oct 17.
