One Actress’s Experience. Surely the actor may be forgiven his frantic desire to appear on Broadway after an experience like that of the actress who tells her story in the Woman’s Home Com panion for November. It must have been a deep davotiou to art which could survive an experience like this. The most amazing was my dis covery that the ancient ban against the players, which existed in Rome and persisted with the Puritins, is still in force in certain places in “enlightened America.” A New England hotel-man told me that “many a player’s pretty flat in New York is furnished with towels marked ‘Hotel Maj-stic,’ and spoons stamped ‘Hotel Newman.” I’m afraid there’s a grain of truth in what he says. But I’ve seen ash trays and such things in some col lege rooms that wonldn’t bear too close inspection. I’ve never heard however, that colleye-men were refused admittance to every hotel in town, as “undesirable citizens.” Yet that actually happened to me in a certain town in Ohio. When I reached the town in ques tion—it beurs the same name as the seat of a famous univetsity—l was ill. I climbed into a carriage at the station with my maid, and tcld the driver to take us to the better of the two hotels the town boasted. ‘ It’s no use, miss,” he said. “They won’t neither of ‘em take you.” I was dumbfounded, and persist ed in my request* The driver how ever. wag right. Not oniy would neither hotel rake me, though I fancy I didn’t look disreputable even if I did look ill. but neither would so much as give me supper. They could not cater to “show peo ple,” the proprietors said. I then told the driver to go aioDg the streets, stopping wherever there was a rign of a boarding- house. After a while, the driver informed me bruskly that he’d “got to feed his hosses ar.’ get back to the de pot,” so my maid and I were dumped out the cold, dark, muddy streets, with two heavey hand-bags, in a strange town. Dear Editor :—What do you say —“my idea of Home,” in the space you indicate? A volume, and a large one, would be required to discuss the mere outlines of this subject. But you have given me s:me time to boil down my crude and imperfect ideas on this theme. A great writer, you know, said on one occasion. “This is a very long letter, but positively I had not time to make it shorter.” “An Ideal Home,” you say. Well, it mast be where love abides, j rock-rooted in confidence. It must be where physical com forts are not wanting, but where luxury and pretense have not usurp ed the places of peace and repose. There may be more joy in the hovel than in the palace; but you are asking for the “ideal” home, and such a home requires all the com - forts. There must be music, because music is the language of the soul when ordinary language fails. There must be religion. Ido not speak of creeds or doctrines or Bi bles or pr yer books. There must be a deep, reverential, God-fearing and God trusting religion, which exemplifies the doctrine taught in the sermon on the mount, and tbc golden rule. There should be calm, low voices, and quiet manners There should be children and books, and pictures andj flowers. The silver hairs and tremulous voice of age should be there—the grandmother or grand father, or both. The well-bred guest should be there, and the way to the door should not be hedged against the poor, for he is “alwaye with you.” With these crude cepted and applied. I should say witn one whose literary shoes I am not yrorthy to unloose:. “Horiae, it is where the day-star springs. I .And where the evening sun repeees; Where’er the eagle spreads Ms wings From northern snows to sduthern roses.’ 0- The Ideal Home. (Written for this department by request and on condS^ o y omit,, names. Out of six requ out four of lady readers ha4l res ponded as follow My ideal honu, is not necessarily adorned with the trappings of wealth ; neither must it.be'saddea ed by pinching poverty. A com— iietence there mast be ; which, with industry and thrift will preserve its inmates from painful anxieties. * In this home, the husband is the bread winner, the wife the home maker, and together they reign as king and queen over the little realm, *** ** The children, for there are child ren in my ideal home, are loyal and obedient subjects, every one ; and it never occurs to them, to question the divine right of their king and queen to lule. Order and system prevail; but love and self-sacrifice for Love’s sake, animates all hearts within this home, and to be good and do good is their constant rule of con duct. Health, smiling goddess, stands at. its portal and scatters happiness and prosperity with lav ish hands, The table is not only the place where nature’s recurring wants are daily supplied, but a school of manners ; yet there harm less mirth disports itself unrebuked, and thought unfettered flows. Books there are in abundance, bringing the culture of all coun tries and all ages within reach of this charmed circle. Flowers bloom in the window, a smile at yon from ' the garden paths with their.sug gestions of beauty and refinement. Yet, whatever else may be there, the guests who frequent this house are its choicest, most valued orna ments. Come in and have us send the North Georgian to a relative. NO- 43
