' "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."

.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.

One of the really typical characters of
the old Ban Francisco is this Austrian

himself as one of the entertainers of
San Francisco's restless folk, who are
always on the lookout for new ways and
places or entertainment.
Matias knew nis powers and his lim
