Mr. Sothem haa been deacrlbed off
the atage aa a "quiet gentleman with
wrinkled clothea." He generally weara
' a dark nondescript auit, made by aonie
unknown tailor. In England, where he
apenda hia aummera.
The natural method of living and
thinking puraued ' by, these two great
artists baa done much to give them
the same method' of suiting for which
they are famed.- Miss Marlowe haa aald
In explanation: "It la tha . first .re
quirement of an. actreaa to keep aa
much humanity In her dally life aa
poaaible. If one draws away from a
natural life. It ahowa In one' work.
Shakespeare's people are as -much the
people of today aa they were of the

artist who does not follow tha common
sense lawa of health and right Hying
