Daughter of the Noted Lillian
"Disappears," It Seems,"
Yet Doesn't
HERE'S story, or really a story
within a story, or possibly just a
press agent's story, but at any rat It Is
about persons well known and often in
the publio prints, and It isn't bad read
,ng. The Telegraph, TJew York's the
atrical dally, tells it as follows : '
Acquaintances of Dorothy Russell,
daughter of Lillian .Russell, were curi
ously stimulated to gossip by an adver
tisement that apfcewred in the New York
Herald recently, as follows:
"Information wanted concerning the
- whereabouts of Miss Dorothy Russell,
daughter. of Lillian Russell. . M. K." -
The Kventnjs'-Telegram. 'whlch is pub
lished by the New York Herald Publish
ing company, offers the additional in
formation that "M. K." Is lawyer,
who concedes his ldentjty." This knowl
edge , Is, of course, due to the require
ment that "personal" advertisers leave
4heir fun name and address in the busi
ness office of the newspaper.
Inquiry at the Herald office yesterday
settled the question of Identities in
" clandestine, or modestly secretive adver
' lining. ; " -. y '
'. It ia not only, necessary te leave cor
rect name and address In ' possession of
the publishers but also the' advertiser's
telephone number, if he has rje.
, 80 It would - seem the Bvening frele
. ram "mystery" concerning Dorothy
Russell, daughter of the celebrated prima
donna, is largely & mystery of Evening
Telegram discretion. ; - i?
In other words, a mystery by courtesy.
The recital of this most perplexing
question' of Miss Dorothy Russell's in-
rlinatlon or reticence to step forward
in the limelight of theatrical doings and
be popular with press agents once more
reads as .follows in the Bvening Tele
gram's issue of yesterday:
"Has Dorothy Russell ran away from
her mother? , .
- "Lilian Russell, who Is known less
widely as Mrs. A. P. Moore, denies that
her daughter disappeared, and in the
, personal columns of the Herald has' an
advertisement which ; maintains that
Dorothy is at home with her in Pitts
burg and ia employed on her stepfather's
paper, the Plttaburs , Leader.
- "One of the strange things about the
two advertisements is that the one ask
ing for information of Dorothy first ap
' peered in this morning's Herald. - while
.her mother's advertisement, - denying
Dorothy's disappearance, is dated Pitts
burg, Pa., Saturday.
"It has been understood for some time
that Dorothy Russell was living with her
mother, but the question why Lillian
Russell advertised that fact instead of
communicating directly with M. K.' very
'naturally arises, but finds no answer.
"Dorothy Russell Is well kndwn in
ftew York and has frequently been a
principal in the news. - She was in vaude-
vllle some years ago, but for some time
has made no stage appearances. Many
persona in the theatrical district who
knew her were Interested by the adver-
' tlsement, but could offer no explanation
of it. none of them haying, seen her for
. month a" .' ' . ' t

TVHERE- really . is no mystery about
A ; the v make-up : that motion picture
players have to use when appearing be
fore the camera except, the mystery of
actors why wish to put so much of it
on their faces, according to .Robert Ju

featured roles. ..'-
Mary McLaren declares make-up has
mysteries for none but the uninitiated,
who overdo It in natural light "shooting"
and underdo tt under artificial lights.
Prlsdlla Dean, however, avers that
there : are r nuances . and details -about
making up ' that only the greatest of
histrions have mastered, Just as only the
greatest " musicians have mastered ; the
technical shades' and lights of violin or
piano playing. ' : : '-:--, :
- Certain It is that there is always the
same 'foundation' In making up. There ;
is always the same beginning. It Is up,

Monroe Salisbury emphatically be
lieves that there should be enough make- ,
up to; "register" photographically a.r ter i
that not a bit- all the making up should j
be done internally.
So when he cold-creams his counte
nance .and . lays the "foundation" of i
greasepaint, he powders his face ginger
ly, -fearing to put on too much "cam
ouflage. for such it 4s. he declared, and
rob his expressive visage of Its great
dramatic power. ' ,
After the grease paint, usually yellow
or, as some prefer, pink both photo
graphic white,, comes the - powdering
flesh-color, or blanche, and then the at
tention to the eyes or lips, which are the
last to be considered thought they are
by- no means the least important. ' lr
The. eyelids really should not be black

players, in the opinion of Julian, , who

Carmine is of course the -make-up

Dark-skinned actors ubo an abundance
of white make-up to lighten -their skin,
while to obtain the effect of grayness,
yellow is employed. '
:, "When working in the sunshine make
up should be very light," says '-James
W Home, who is directing J. J. Corbett;
"and yellow grease paint is ' in order:
But when the actor goes into the 'light
studio" under the mercury ,. vapors he
dons a make-up of very light pink. ' There
should never be so much that the make

Brlc Von Strohelm, the Hun officer
