Itafrrt lift Htmllrt the Parr of the Other riayrr and ConnU fn aa to Tell When to ftprnlc. Perlinptthe miwt important detail fur an actor to maatcr In finite tcelinloalition in tho trick of picking tip hi cno quick ly. Every utago malinger knowr, how im portant it in thnt that should 1m done. The slightest hesitancy in n quirk con versation between tho lines spoken by different people will surely spoil tlio scene. Tlio regulation way for actors nnd no rrcMe to lenrn tlieir parts is to also learn the cue, nil well its tlieir own lines. Perhaps it is well to tell the uninitiated thnt the cuo consists of the last few word or tho Inst sentence spoken hy the other nctor. Every pnrt not only con tains whnt the nctor is to speak, hut also the cne. Most stagefolk will tell yon thnt it ia more difficult to lenrn tho cues thnn it is tlio lines, ns they often convey no moaning to tho mind. Everybody in New York who poos to the theaters knows or has seen Joe Hol Innd, ns lie is familiarly called. No one would suspect, to seo Mr. Holland's ren dition of the parts he plays, that ho does not hear the cues. However, that is n fact. Mr. Hollnnd inherited deafness. His father was deaf, and hi brother, Mr. Qobjo Holland, the Philadelphia manager, is nlso slight ly affected thnt wny. It would seem to tho average thinker thnt Mr. Holland would hnvo found his infirmity a serious handicap in tho dra matic profession. On the contrary, so cleverly has he managed it thnt it has been almost nn advantago to him. Triv inl noises do not disturb him, and in consequence ho is ublo to givo his whole mind, unaffected by any interruptions, to the work in hand. Of course Mr. Holland is not absolute ly "stone donf," ns tho saying goes. Ho is whnt is generally termed "hard of hearing. " Now ns to how he picks up his cues when ho doesn't henr them. Ho studies not only his own part, but alio the entire lines spoken by other peo ple when ho is on tho stngo. He com mits these to memory perfectly. So well does ho loam them that ho knows just how long it takes for them to bespoken. When ho' is facing tlio nctor of whom hn is to get his cue, of course he can readily tell when his turn conies by tho move ment of tho other's lips or tho expres sion of the face. Ho says, though, that tho expression of tho faco is what he re lies on most Ho pays very littlo ntten tion to tho lips, Wnnso most peoplo have n habit of moving the lips involun tarily even when they are not speaking, n trick that would easily lead hiin astray. Tlio expression of tho faco, how ever, is a suro cue. It never fails him nnd nlw.iys is tho came. His mnin reliance, however, is on a system of counting. He knows Just how long it will tako for cneh speech to be saiil. Ho times that speech by n certain nnmlMT of counts. When he has counted the right number of times for tho speech, he knows that it is his turn to speak. This is absolutely necessary when his back is turned toward the other actor.- As, for instance, Mr. Holland comes on tho stage, his line is: "Well; I've returned." Ho then turns around to lay down his hat, nnd tho other person says: "But you were very late in getting back. " As soon as Mr. Hollnnd turns hn be gins to count. When ho hns ronched eight, he says in a nonchalant way, no matter whnt is happening: "Well, aren't you glad to see me bnck?" Long experience hns shown him thnt in this wny ho picks up his cno just ns promptly and perhaps more so than though he hnd henrd it. Mr. Holland's ndroitness in this line has been tho wonder of New York man agers. Probably no ono else knows of it, for, ns is nntnrnl, Mr. Holland is n trifle sensitive on the subject The only drawback that he ever finds to his system arises from other faults than his own. Ho has never yet leen cnught napping except when somo stage hand mndo n blunder or some unforsoen accident occurred. This would only hap pen when somo lioiso wns to 1x made, ns the ringing of a bell or tho firing of a gun. In such cases Mr. Holland sup poses, of course, that tho property man or tho stago hand is doing his duty. If, however, tho property man or tho stago hand does not do his duty promptly, Mr. Hollnnd is left in nn embarrassing situ ation. Snppose, for instance, that in tho busi ness of a pieco a boll is to bo rung. It doesn't ring when it should. However, thnt's nono of Mr. Holland's business. Ho nnturally supposes that it has rung, and so ho calmly says: "Ah, thcro goes tho bell . Go to tlio t door, Mnryl" And just after lie hns snld it the bell rings. Or if somo one is to flro n pistol nnd Mr. Holland is supposed to bo listening for the report with rapt nttention, nnd When it should go off says, "At last he hns (I red, " and no one has tired ns far ns tho audience can discover well, in such cases tho stago manager swears nnd somebody gets fined. New York Herald. i'ooil Tin Cans. In a recent government report by Dr. H. W. Wiley it is stated that in Ger man? tho law requires that the tins em ployed for holding canned goods shall not contain more than 1 percent of lend, while in this country there is no restric tion whatever in regard to the character of the tin used, tho result of this latter fact being tho employment of cans in some cases containing as high ns 1 3 per cent of lead. This practice prevails, not withstanding tho unanimity among physiologists as to tho effect of lead salts upon tho human system, the continual ingestion of even minute quantities of lead into tho system being followed eventually by tho most serious conse quences painter's colic, lend palsy and other trying diseases well known to physicians being tho direct effects of continual exposure of tho system to any such minute portions of lead salts. It is said to ! possihlo to exclude the lattor by requiring that tho tin shall not con tain inoro than, say, 1 per cent of lead; also that tho solder bo us free from lend as possible. In Germany the solder made uso of in sealing the cans is not allowed to con tain over 10 per cent of lend, while in this country tho analysis of numerous samples of the solder applied shows that it contains fully 50 per cent of lead, in addition to this lmingtho lack of euro to prevent such solder from coming into contact with tho contents of tho can, and largo surfaces of solder on tho seams aro often found exposed to tho action of tho ncul contents of tho can.

TWO AUTO. r.FHS. nitmarck Maw Vnn Mnltke's Mviitlment and Went Him linn ll. ttrr. A young Germnn Inily of rank, pos sessed of great personal charms nnd sin gularly winning manners, the daughter of a prominent politician, herself now a hnppy wife nnd mother, once beguiled Moltko, who wns paying n brief visit to her father's country homo in Sllesin, into writing something in her autograph album. This was the entry: Luge Vnrifi M : Wnlirhnlt wti lit. V. Moi.tki:, Fclilinanchsll. Which in English would be: A He imit- full : Truth will in villi. Tho wily damsel now determined to bide her time until she should be able to match Moltkn's dictum. When her family had again settled down in their Berlin quarters for the winter season, Prince Iiismnrck called one afternoon, and she showed him her book, calling his attention to whnt the grent strate gist hnd written, ndding nrtlessly: "Do you think tho same, dear prince? Per haps yon would like to add your com ment? And on the same page? Oh, thnnk you so very much t And may I send tho volume to tlio Wilhelmstrnsse?" The chancellor next day returned the book, now a grently treasured family possession, nnd this is what ho had writ ten lienenth the contribution of his col lengne : WnhfwolM Irh, Ann In Jom-r Welt Din Wnlirhelt sti'ts den Slig lii lmlt.

Judging from the big crowds continually surrounding -our clothing counter's, and from the masses of people that crowd into our store daily, would lead a person to believe that there is no other clothing house in the town. Why ? Recauso we tell the truth and show the goods to correspond with our advertisement. Truly we save every pur- chaser big money. Gentlemen who read our advertisement came with great expectations and no! one ot uiem went away disappointed nor usuiisiieti. m course our mi.-.ccss nas stirred up a lot of imitators who have attempted by misrepresentation to pull the trade towards themselves, but misrepresentation is one thing and truth is another. Thetruththattells in this case is that no such values in clothing are obtainable in any store in the county, only at MILLIUKN'S, as we are now olk-ring. Our former purchase of clothing was only an infant when compared with the mighty invoice that arrived last week. That we sold, in the beginning of our former sale, more suits of clothing in one day than any other house in town, is a true fact Snixrisel! When somo of our customers coino in and son tluwo Burjraliw they exclaim, "How do you soil so cheap V" That is easily unsweivd.
