FALLING ON THE STAGE.
&n Aetrrm Tctl How H. Ih Done Dangri
or (Setting Hurt.
"Wnnt to know how wo fall?" Bald the
beautiful, graceful woman "Why, hco.
this way First your kuee. mid then your
Iiip, and then your nhoulder, and you arc
down;" and the graceful fipuru was prone
am tho carpet with outstretched anus
Every fold of her htco dranvry in tho pret
tiest possihlo place, not an Inch of her
unklo or gleam of tho snowy ukirts was
visible, and tho falling has been as nolso
less and gracoful as a butterfly's dip and
swoop down to tho heart of ti roso. Then,
with n supple graco and quick, agile
spring, bIio was on her feot In a second.
"In this way sideways, you see," and
with n dip and curve and sweep of the
loco draperies, down sho floated as swift
amd noiseless as a swallow's downward
sweep, and sho lay apparently lifeless,
with her faco hidden. Another little
spring and she floated backward into a
chair 60 limp and faint that oven tho
smilo on her lips hardly reassured you
that it wasn't an actual sudden faintness,
"Wo aro taucht In tho schools, and
practlco on a rug at homo first, you know;
and or rourso wo got many bruises winie
learning. Wo fall first to tho kneo and
then to tho hip, tho shoulder, and down.
Of course wo do this very slowly at first
and awkwardly, but wo do it over and
over ngain until ono fall blends into tho
other so completely that you cannot dis
tinguish it. Oh, yes, it is hard at first,
but nil thero Is to it is to tako all tho
will out of your body and collapse. Mako
j"our muscles Involuntary and inspired
with tho part you aro playing, bo that at
tho proper time you will fall almost un
consciously, and then you won't bo hurt.
Oar prompter fainted tho other night,
and fell and hurt himself very badly.
Now, 1 could fall in a faint a hundred
times nnd not bo hurt you seo my fall is
.an unconsciously mechanical action. You
jjo into a familiar room in tho dark and
your body will unconsciously tako tho
right direction to avoid coming in con
tact vith tho objects in tho room, bo my
ibody takes tho mechanical curvo and
polso rerpildlto to avoid a hurt without
xny thinking anything about it if I mako
myself perfectly inert give myself all
up, you know.
"1 have been hurt sovcral times. Those
old fashioned sloping stages wero treach
erous afTairs, and very often when play
ing on nn unfamiliar otago wo wero hurt.
T remember going down bang on my noso
onco almost broke it. Everything was
dark for a minute, nnd then there Hashed
out all tho constellations known to man,
.and eoveral moro that haven't been dis
'Oovcred, but I went on with my part and
no ono know. Then I had another full
that made my hip black all over thought
that would nover got well, for I had to
fall on it every night, no matter how it
hurt.
"Aro wo afraid of being hurt? Oh, no.
Wo aro constantly in danger. Great heavy
things aro hanging over our heads that,
'if some stage carpenter shall blunder or
eoino piece of machinery break, would
como down and mako short work of us. I
liad a heavy iron bar fall not four inches
from my l'Kco onco, and a man cut my
forehead with a dagger, and other pcoplo
havo accidents, but wo don't think any
thing ubout thorn after it Is over. Llko
nervous pcoplo on shipboard fancy boforo
they sail that they uro going to think of
ttltelr danger all tho time, but two days
out they will forget all their fear and feci
as safe as on land. So wo throw our
selves down on tho boards and roll off
sofas nnd down terraces and out of chairs.
Ituowing wo might break our bones, but
jiovor thinking of it. No ono over did
much a fearfully dangerous thing as that
JuTss Fetter, though. It seemed strange
tho papers didn't speak of It boforo, for It
just seemed cruel lor her to endanger her
lier health and oven her life just to make
ono more funny point in tho pluy-
"JMon Bay tiomotimes that women fall
inoro ousllv and lightly than they them
selves. This may bo true, for women are
supplo, lithe and elitist i,-mill not so tall,
for tho fall Is just as nu'diauical. Pcoplo
only watch thoprot,,, curves and graco
ful sweep of a wonwn's drapery, and do
not seo tho mechanical studied action
underneath. Wo lloat down very grace
fully, but tho floating is done as accu
rately na a problem In geometry." Now

Not n I. Ilo of i Luxury.
Oh! I havo had m many non-profes
sional people go into ecstasies over our
calling in lll'o, IVrhaps you think it a
Jlfo of luxury Well, it is not. Thero
Aro rehearsals and study and sowing and
n hundred other trying exercises that
hoop you busy till you haven't tlmo to
write u letter homo. Principals in u com
pany uro alwiiya tho envy of a chorus
ffirl, and wo go on calculating Just when
wo, too, will bo shining lights. Tho stuff
that is written ubout. our heart romances
la tho merest bosh. Some of us aro mar
rtod uud support husbands that is, some
chorus girls but not any In our com
pony, uud niott of them havo tendor at
tachments in tho company who will not
permit a dudo to get closer to us than u
hundred yards. 1 wish somo of tho young
ladies who uro sighing to bo chorus girls
could seo us at homo, over our gas stoves,
cooking frugal meals, or sitting for hours
darning holes lu our tights. 1 don't think
nftor quo little o.perleueoof this kind tho
ladies would euro to undergo unother.
Lot mo toll you tho truth; tho chorus
jjlrl'a lot Is not no happy us it seems to
bo not by Kovoral Jugfuls. Chorus Girl

Hallway refreshments In England uro
provcrblully dour and bad. hut they uro
ccrtiiluly getting worse. Tho Bit down
meal is respectable, uud tho plutea of eggs
and cold meat: uro eatablo, but tho buns
and sandwiches (und thero is, or would bo,
tin Immense bun uud sandwich public) uro
simply utrocioits. As a rttlo, everything
under n glass cover is stale. Is It possl
blo that tho great firm which contracts
for bo many of our railway stations can bo
awaro of tho disgraceful way in which tho
band to mouth refreshments uro thrown
-on tho public? Why do not they upjwint
periodical Inspectors, charged to tustotho
waysldo buns, etc-Y Perhaps no ouo can
bo got to do tho tatting in tho present
statu of rtiTulrs It would bo no light
ordeal. Anyhow, tho sandwich market is
simply being ruined for want of u llttlo
butter, nnihtatd uud fresh bread, Tho
two vcany sandwich Is u fraud dry and
tasteless while tho bun Is altogether
leathery Pull Mull Gutcotto.
