Whatever the characterisation, whether it be. a Chinaman as in V'Brokdht.-Bioßsoms, 0 or a swash'buck--Ming soldier as in “The Fighting Blade,” or a crippled soldier as im “The Enchanted Cottage,” or a pugilist as in “The iPatent . Leather Kid,” or ftuailly as he is now in “Young N'owheres,” the wistful, dreaming elevator operator, he is always natural. ’.,.. His. roles seem “unacted.” He .lives the characters he portrays and never bedecks it with, tricks of the>.theatx'e-Aunhatufal manners or gestures. He. is , careful how. he dresses his characters. . If they are drab they must dress drably. If they are romantic 4 they must be so garbed. He takes no license in order to win, his .audience.;. ‘“There- is ■ ter. This hO thinks- and'acti'v and Hives.
