Clara Morris’ Study of a Victim of Heart Disease, No actress ever surpassed Clara Mor ris in the care with which she studied for a partt When she was studying the part of Cora In “Article 47" she visited an insane asylum in order to learn the signs of insanity. Cora was not only insane, but she was disfig ured by a hideous scar as well, Miss Morris spent weeks in trying to cure a correct representation, and one day she saw in a street car a woman who had exactly that kind of disfigure- ment, She studied it and reproduced it, but her kindness of heart shrank from reproducing it in such fashion that the sufferer might recognize it if she ever saw the play. So she work- ed over it until she made enough al terations to feel certain that no one, not even the owner of the original gcar, could ever suspect the imitation, When she was studying the part of Miss Moulton, wha was to die of heart disease, she visited a specialist who had a number of patients suffering from that trouble. He showed her one of his patients and then, to her surprise and horror, ran the sufferer up a flight of stairs that Miss Morris might see the symptoms as produced after an excitement of the heart, Miss Morris was filled with pain and pity She made the poor patient a present of a bank bill as was leaving. The woman accepted it and then she was staffing It into her glove caught sight of the figure on the note The size was so large that it brought on a recurrence of all the symptoms the starting eyes, the gasping breath, the widening nostrils. This time the heart excitement was caused by joy, not pain, but Miss Morris was so over. come with horror and sympathy that she hurriedly left the house. —Ladies’ Home Journal. HIS FIRST WIG.
