At the concinu- sion of heth the fourth and fifth acts she was called before the curiain, to acknowledge the | appinuse of the audience. The secret of the Wonderful success of Miss Provost is her natu- rainess and identification of herself with the character she represents, Under her fascina- ting influence the auditor forgets the Actress, and seés and hears only the character person- ated. It is this marvellous power that, throngh- out her whole career in England, Austraitiaand America, has created greater entiusiasm and ¥y op her «yery appearance.
