The Answer Man Helen H., Detroit. — What you say reminds me of that old saying of Hippocrates: "Life is short, art long, opportunity fleeting, experience uncertain, and judgment difficult." I have lived seventy-six years to find that out. "Huckleberry Finn" hasn't been released at this writing. William Gillette and Marjorie King in that Essanay. Beach Comber. — Yes, indeed, my little hallroom is full of pictures, for I believe, with Sir Joshua Reynolds, that a room hung with pictures is a room hung with thoughts. Cant give you that here. New Reader. — I expect to have a lot of new readers now that we are publishing a larger book. Edna Purviance in "The Pawnshop." We have done as you suggested about the Gallery pictures. Clara Williams in "In the Corner." Imogene C. — A jackety-pinch is a person who does all kinds of odds and ends and left-over jobs for other people — -that's me. But I dont mind doing them. Paul Willis was Blackie in "Trouble Buster." Madeline Hamilton. — Most graciously I thank you. You say I am the first man you ever met who possesses patience. I am not sure that I possess that rare virtue to the degree you imagine. I suppose that Harold Lockwood and I receive more loveletters than any two living men. 1 am getting so that I can feed on them and still feel hungry. Skinny McLean. — Well, I have found that of all the animals, cats, flies and women take the longest time in dressing. Kenneth Casey is on the stage and Adele De Garde is with Vitagraph. First issue of the Magazine was February, 1911. Lela L. I. — You say that Ford is not to make any more pleasure cars. When did he ever make any? Do you mean Arthur Lehman in "The Scarlet Runner"? Cyril B. — Bert Lytell. Your joke about the two little fellows one of whom said his father had electricity in his hair, and the other replied "That's nothing, my father's got gas in his stomach," is much too much. Put on the chains — you're skidding. Farrar Admirer. — Oh I dont mind some of the questions I get, but of all thieves, fools are the worst ; they rob me of time and temper. Lucille Lee Stewart in "The Ninety and Nine." Alfred Whitman was John in "Princess of the Dark." I was wrong, sorry. Mrs. C. K. — Come, cheer up.. They say that God created woman only to tame man, but I believe that she has one or two other missions. "The Honeymoon" was taken at Niagara Falls. Naturally. College Stewdzat. — Julia S. Gordon, Rosemary Theby and Leo Delaney in "Rock of Ages." Several States and cities have their own censors. Thanks for the clipping. Marion H. L. — Jewel Carmen in "The Kingdom of Love." Yes, the price went up. The total area of the Pennsylvania station in New York is 28 acres; of the N. Y. Central, 79 acres. M. M. T., Soldier Boy. — Haven't seen either of Shorty Hamilton's two five-reel pictures. His first was "Denny from Ireland." Your letter was very interesting. Let me know when you go. Protege. — Glad to hear of your success. Bravo! Tut, tut! The Bible says that woman is the last thing which God made. He must have made her Saturday night. It shows fatigue. Yet, she is today our equal and can vote and smoke and swear just as if she' were a man. Freckles. — Oh, but you must believe that I am 76. You say you will write more next time — it isn't necessary. Collector. — George Cooper and Adele De Garde in that Xmas piece. How happy life would be if every person owning an automobile could afford to keep it ! And I haven't even a second-hand Ford. Thelma B. — We dont give out the personal addresses of players. Address them in care of the company. So you think I could write patent medicine advertisements for a living. That's easy. All you have to do is to convince the reader that there is such a disease, and then that he has it. I would rather tryr something more difficult. Mrs. G. L. L. — You must have beautiful hair. Of course I am interested in your hair. I lost mine years ago, and it has never been found. Do you use henna? Mrs. M. S.— You ask if Robert Warwick will return to the stage or to pictures 'after the war. I dont believe he knows himself. Let us hope that it will be pictures. E. K. — That's right — ask for the universe with a small part of the earth thrown in for good measure. Those who want little get nothing. Milton Sills and Miriam Cooper in "The Honor System." Pauline Frederick is 5 feet 4 inches, blue eyes, brown hair and weighs 130 pounds. Theda Bara is about 27 years old, I'm told. John T. R. — A thousand thanks for the poll-parrot. He will be good company for me. But who taught him to swear? Did you, John? Margaret K. T. — Sorry I didn't see you when you were in New York. I want to thank you and all who so kindly remembered me on Christmas and New Year's. I received lots of very useful gifts, for which I am very grateful. Velma A. — I enjoyed your letter very . much. I didn't see either of those pictures. A bachelor may be thrilled in gazing at a beautifully gowned woman, but half the thrill is consolation at the thought that he doesn't have to pay her bills. A Constant Reader. — Sorry that picture of Elliott Dexter wasn't in the Classic. Carmel Myers in "My Unmarried Wife." Bigelow Cooper with Metro. Francis X., the Second. — I can say nothing against the company you refer to. Yes, our Editor is also an artist, and his paintings are in quite some demand. He is secretary of the Brooklyn Society of Artists. Maud S. — I eat three meals a day only, but I nibble on chocolate occasionally to keep the fire going. Yes, he is the same Harold Shaw. Violet Mersereau is playing the innocent country girl again in "The Girl by the Roadside." That was George Odell as' Steve in "The Wolf and His Mate." Fedora T. — Young lady — hast thou cast thy optics on the paragraph heading this department ? Olga, 17. — I thank you most graciously for the epistle. So you liked William Farnum in "Les Miserables." You say you never cried so much in your life. Charles G. — Thursday night is a lightless night in New York now. All the signs on Broadway are in darkness. The Rivoli Theater on Broadway and 49th St. opened on December 27th with Doug Fairbanks in "A Modern Musketeer." It is a handsome palace. Lou-Tellegen was born in Holland. You can reach Pearl White at Pathe and Geraldine Farrar at the Metropolitan Opera House New York. Serial Queen Admirer. — It is worth a thousand dollars a year to have the habit, as you have, of looking on the bright side of things. You ask if Pearl White is rich — well, she is rich in popularity, but I do not know what her bank balance is.
