""" When Actors Play to Actors. “When he (Henry Irving) engaged me to play Ophelia in 1878 he asked me to go down to Birmingham to see the play, and that night I saw what I shall always consider the perfection of act- ing. It had been wonderful in 1874; in 1878 it was far more wonderful,” wrote Ellen Terry in McClure’s. “It has been eald that when he had the ‘advantage’ of my Ophelia his Hamlet ‘improved.’ 1 don’t think so. He was always quite independent of the people with whom he played. The Birmingham night he knew I was there. He played—I say it without vanity—for me. We players are not above that weakness, if it be a weakness. If ever anything inspires us to do our best it is the presence in the audience of some fellow artist who must, in the nature of things, know more completely than any one what we intend, what we do, what we feel. The response from such a member of the audience flies across the footlights to us like a flame. I felt it once when 1 played Olivia before Eleanora Duse. | felt that she felt it once when she play The Topsyturvydom of Religlen. At the opening of King Edward VIL’s first parliament he had to repea¢ after the lord chancellor an oath which con- demned in almost brutal words all things papistical. Yet held aloft by & Protestant peer for all Protestants to reverence was a veritable emblem of papal supremacy—a quaint little bon- net of crimson velvet turned up with ermine. This is the cap of mainte- nance, and so sacred is it that no bands but royalty may finger it. Thus the premier marquis, whose hereditary right it 1s to carry it, balanced it some- what after the fashion of a conjurer upon a white staff. This cap was granted to Henry VIIL. by Pope Leo X. In the middle ages it was held as symbolic of the overlord, only belng granted to vassals and feudatories ‘whom the lord wished to honor, so that 1t implies as nothing else could the su premacy of the pope over the kings of England.—London Standard. What Makes the Heart Buat? Professor Jacques Loeb, the celebrat- ‘ed blologist, in his book, “Dynamics of Living Matter,” has shown that a strip cut from the ventricle of the heart put in a solution of chloride of sodium will continue to beat for a mnumber of days, until putrefaction sets in. He says this can be done with an ordinary muscle after it has been ex- ‘tirpated from the body. This would tend to prove that the heart is a chem- ical machine and that it is all due ts chemical action. The muscular con- traction is probably- due to the substi- tation of sodium for calclum salts in the cells of the muscles. The difficulty of this theory is that it does mnot explain the control of the muscles. It is plain that the problem of control is not solved by the chem- ical theory. A “Fine Old Woman." During the evening a gentleman came to Mrs. Siddons and sald, “Mad- am, I beg your pardon for asking so rude a question, but in consequence of a wager allow me to ask your age.” She replied, “Seventy-eight years old” “Hang it said he, “I have lost” And he abruptly went away. Mrs. Siddons immediately said, “Pup- py!” “Very true” I observed, “but why did you tell him you were 80 0ld?” She replied, “Whenever a lady of an uncertain age, as it is termed, is asked how old she is she had better add ten or more years to her age, for then the inquirer goes away saylng, ‘What a fine old woman!'”"—“Journals of Sir George Smart.” - Foresight and Delicatessen.
