PAGE EIGHT Life of Gilded Sub-Deb in Grasp, Dorothy Brown Chooses Stage NEW lO,RK, Oct. 21. — You will! find her dancing in a Broadway! chorus. It doesn’t matter which one. She is one of the thousands of pretty girls with talent trying to leap the gap between anonymity and stardom. She works hard on the stage and harder off-stage perfecting her danc ing technique. The point is that Dorothy Brown could have lived the life of a shelter ed young sub-deb in St. Paul, Minn. Her father, L. R. Brown is a prosp erous merchant of the nothwest city. She was headed straight for the younger society set when the com bination of talent and ambition sent her off at 16 headed straight for a ' career, with her mother along as: companion and chaperone. Within six months she was shock ing small towns of the Chautauqua circuit. She was the first "dance act” to be booked for Chautauqua, which meant tights and ballet skirts, and the injection of a litte jazz. In one | • town, Dorthy recalls the young folk were warned against seeing such “shocking” exhibit. Ail of which. seemed narrow-minded and unneces sary to Dorothy—but was, neverthe-1 less, good publicity. But what shocks the Chautauqua doesn’t get so much as a lifted eye brow out of Broadway. And so Doro thy has to go through the mill like all the rest. Perhaps tomorrow she may be an important “specialy” or a star and thousands of talented and ambitious girls will be tempted T»y tales of her success to leave the security and comfort of good homes. "It is almost staggering to see the number of other girls all trying to do the same thing,” says Dorothy, out of her comparatively brief ex perience. “Every agency is swarmed, every production is rushed—there seem to be just milions of them. Sometimes I wonder where they all come from. “And yet you just have to keep on for tomorrow may come the big opportunity you have w’aited for. That’s what keeps most of them in the struggle. Sometimes it’s fun and sometimes it brings a lump to your throat, but one doesn’t stay down hearted long when one it young. When you see those that aren’t so young any more, well, it does make you think of all the pleasant home things.” And there you have the wistful and unfinished tale of another youngster trying to crash Broadway, but with the advantage of a family WRINKLES, LINES : OR CROWS-FEET ) E.

Doctors said it was caused I from a pressure of gas that came | from my stomach, but their medicine 1 did not help me and I was getting < worse all the time. Three years ago 1 my druggists recommended Mayr’s Wonderful Remedy. I took a course of it and believe it is the best life insurance anyone can buy. It helped I my trouble at once.” It is a simple, - * harmless preparation that removes ■! the catarrhal mucous from the in- i 1 tsetinal tract and allays the inflam : mation which causes practically all 3 stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, 1 including appendicitis. One dose will 3 convince or money refunded. For t sale by all druggists.
