The actor, Just as the playright has done, affirms Mtoutly that Mr. Rockefeller has noi been used as a model. "The character Is thp composite picture of the system," he says.

Grimes was arrested | this morning anil placi d In the town ] guard house here and evidently be came worried over his and decided to end It all by taking his owfi life. Grimes sucreeded In cutting the wind pipe In two and If It had .not been for his sister who happend to go to the guard house to talk with hlin he no doubt would have bled to death before It became known that he had rut hi* throat Dr*.

Augusta, Ga Dear Sira: Here la a story that tolls the fact* as truly as If ft were true. At the time when President Liu coin was shot, in 1565, a man had three houses alike. In like condition and situated alike. He meant to find cut. by experiment, which of three paint* wi-uld prove moat profitable. He painted the first house lead-and oll, the second Devoe, the third tin other good paint; and. afterward*, painted each house when required, for thirty year*, with the paint h< painted It with at first. H* got 25 gallons of each for the Jub; had 1 gallon left on ihe first house, an.l 4 on the second; hu* had to jet 7 gallons more for the third He was surprised at the difference; he hau expected one paint to go a* far a* another. The costs of the several paint* by the gallon were not far apart: lead attd-oil |1 t'o; De\oe $1.75; the a her! paint It 50; and the cost of all three was the same for labor, s;< 00 a gal ! lon. 1-ead and-otl he has painted once in three year*, Devoe once In »tx, and the other paint once In (In' years Any schoolboy ran reckon his costs for th-iac three house* for thtny year*; that * a business man * life time. Lead-and-otl sllo* 00 Devoe 49* 75 Other pnlnt S6t 00 And the story Is Just as good as If It were actual hlstorv l’atnt ts *0 profitable that e'en dear paint Is cheap; but half the money paid for paint la thrownaway by using weak paint, supposed to be otnap hat la dear. Strong paint la cheap; weak pain* is dear, the least gallons paint is the most economical paint. Devoe til Yours 'rut' F \\ DEVOE -6 t'O P S Alexander Drug Co., sell our paint. AUGUSTA HERALD either man In view'. At any rate, I have certainly not based my concep tion of the role oil ar.y personal knowledge of cither mau. Hyder is a distlnat Individuality that is not to be confused with anyone. He is tli highest type of whal represents tht '.System', and he makes his potential ity felt as does no one man in real life. "Not yet", Mr. Everett w'-nt on, "have 1 iy learned all the coni plexttues ot what Shirley calls the Octopus. Perhaps that ts why the part has such a fasctnatldn tor me. For nearly three years now, I have been appearing In this role, and yu. every time I play it there comes to me some fresh revelation of Its pos tlbllltles. Constantly with me Is tht question, what would a man of such unbridled power have done under these circumstances or these, or these? Whether or not I am answer ing the question well, I can glean on ly from the attitude of my audience If 1 am in error there Is no respon siveness, and to I delve o/ice more Into the deep complexitues of the man and his self-made environment ” Mr Everett is an actor who takes his part variously. He believes that what Is worth doing at all is worth doing well. To his every role he brings a freshness of enthusiasm tha. cannot fall to make a powerful im- I resslon whether or not one happens to agree with hts own particular Idea regarding the requirements of the rharacler he is enacting No part could fit him more perfectly than does that of the money king in Klein's story, and whether or not wo see In It something of Rockefeller or of some other moneyed potentate, w-- do see In It something that makes an Imprint such as Is posslb'e only from a personality remarkable for strength and Individuality.
