A plain ring is always permissible if the wearer does not wish to remove it for some sentimental reason. There are a few occasions when a woman should not appear well dressed on the screen. After shipwreck, fire or flood too careful grooming is an offense against common sense. Some time ago I saw an intelligent actress shipwrecked on a Broadway screen. She had been washed ashore] without even an over-night bag. She spent a year picking berries and eating trout. One day a man-of-war rescued her.

A very human little rascal, too — up to mischief most of the time, playing tricks on his teachers, oh, any number of little boyish pranks. At an early age I learned sleight-of-hand, and used to amuse the trades-people, particularly, with my accomplishments along this line. I was a good boy, always bringing home what I could. My teachers never quite understood me, often growing impatient with this little pupil of theirs when he would make merry about the schoolroom, expressing that spontaneity, those exuberant spirits which, in later years, were to delight, if I do say it myself, the audiences in every portion of the globe, including California.
