If it were not for the fact that he lost his right arm in an accident he would be on the stage or in the sawdust ring at the present time, he says. In speaking of physical ahility, Mr. Salvini says that he has no sympathy for the man or woman who complains of his or her health if the person has not taken care of themselves during their early years. Mr. Salvini is a great heliever in clean living and he says that it is for this reason only that he, and other members of his family, were able to follow their ¢hosen profession so many years. When asked as to what he thought of the work of the local gental clinic, Mr. Salvini“paid that he was highly in favor of it and explained why the people should take great care of their teeth. As stated by the theater man- ager, in the days of his childhood the care and attention was not given to teeth as it Is at the present time. Both his father and mother were stage people and realizing the value of perfect health and teeth he was taught at an early-age to care for It looks as though Mrs, Harding were releasing the dove of peace, but it's “Annandale,” a himeels adihis e oo | homing pigeon, returning with her reply to a message from' the New York Poultry Show. “Annan- dale” established a world’s record when he flew from Chicago to Washington in 17 hours and 40 producers in the world, according to 4 = r vV e theater manager.

Willinery Ga (im0 Booth’s Block Sale is Final, Starts In Australia Mr. Salvini was born in Marseilles, Sale I'rance, of French parentage, and lat- er moved to Australia where he began his extensive training for the acro- Latic work, which later made him famous. His father, whose name was Starts Tomorrow Morning 257 Main St. | Zephir Dessmaris, was an old circus performer, while his mother, Julia Danacour, was an opera singer. Learns in Sandbank While he lived in Melbourne, Aus- tralia, Mr. Salvini, with many of the other children in the neighborhood, as well as his brother, used to go to nearby sand banks and perform oth- Latic stunts in the sand, always trying € Imitate some performers they had seen in a few of the one-ring circuses which were in vogue at that time. It was while the boys were per- forming some of their regular stunts in the sand that Salvini, the master circus performer of those days, hap- pened along and watched them. Tak- ing a particular interest in the work | of the two brothers, he asked them if they were desirous of following the circus profession. The boys did not make an answer, but referred them to their father who, after consulting with the great Salvini, decided to form a trofipe which later became known as the “Salvini Troupe."” First Performances The lecal theater man, his brother and father were members of the troupe, which consisted of 12 people. The first performances were given with the circus in which the g t Salvini was interested.

Iirst To Do Trick When the local theater man went to London he decided to take tke name of Salvini by which he hac ke come famous, instead of retaining his own name. Tt was while in Lon- don at the Tivoli theater, that Mr. Salvini first accomplished the feat of doing a double somersanit from a leaping board. This was done in 1200 and at a matinee and was the very first time any acrobat had done it. At the evening performance, Mr. Salvini was hurt in making the trick and it was not done again success- fully until he came to New York about a year later. In 1901 he per- formed the trick at the Madison Square Garden All this time, Mr. Salvini was a member of the Salvini troupe of ecro- Following the engagement at Madison Square Garden in New Mr. Salvini, with the troupe joined the Walter Maine show and for geveral seasons toured the greater [} part of the United States.
