Requests for the address of Mary PIckford have come to the office. Address letters to 270 Riverside Drive, New York.
The days of the ' -wishing ring and the genii of Aladdin's lamp, - who could make your wildest dreams come true, belong. to the fables of the past Today genius is hard work, and it is to the latter that I attribute my success. . Ever since that memorable day when I went to the Biograph studio and Mr. Griffith gave me my first part, I have worked like the squirrels, who store during the summer months their provisions for the winter. I have sowed hard so that I might reap
my harvest, nor do I intend, because
in a measure success has come to me,
to feel that I can rest long enough to admire my laurels. I know they will wither and fall to pieces if I do not keep bringing my art to a higher standard. I am not content with what
I have done and I want to climb high
er and higher.
"What an easy life you really have," said a discontented young society girl to me the other day. "All
you do is ride around in machines to
pretty locations and wear cunning lit
tle costumes, and then have the fun
of sitting in audiences and watching people as they admire you upon the screen. I lead a dreadful old life; it is all such hard work teas, luncheons, matinees, shopping and then a stupid old trip abroad every year. I would
give anything If I could be in your
shoes." 1 laughed at her.
"It all those pleasures you name are hard work," I replied, "you would
be w jrn threadbare in a week work
lug as a moving picture actress. It is
far from play with us and the very
hardest kind of work. There are very few mornings that I can get up later than 7 o'clock, and in the winter it Is
cold and bleak as we ride, sometimes fifty or sixty miles, into the country for a location. When the days are dark and the clouds bide the sun, we have to sit around for hours waiting for one flash of sunshine that will enable us to take the scene. Is there anything more tiring that an eternal
wait? even for the sunshine? Taking Comedy Seriously. She looked at me with surprise. "But you just romped through 'Fanchon, the Cricket,' " she continued. j "Fancy getting a salary for such fun as that!" j This msde me observe the general opinion 13 that comedy is not work. That Is a mistake. To me it is the very hardest kind of work, because , It must be taken so seriously. It is really harder to make people laugh than to bring tears, and the artist who directs his comedians is as choice and careful of his comedy as an architest who is constructing a gigantic building. High Heels and the Leading Lady. The first picture I played the lead in was at the Biograph, and was called "The Violin Maker of Cremona." Mr. Griffith decided that I could play the lead in spite of the fact that I was almost too small. Florence Lawrence came, to my rescue by lending me a pair of her highheeled slippers and then, hold myself as straight as a sapling. I felt I had reached sufficient height to become a leading lady. It was the first time I had ever had
heels on, and, feeling as if I were walking around on silts, I stumbled and twisted my ankles and stepped on my dress repeatedly. When the picture was shown in the dark room, I heard some one remark, "That girl with the long curls has a pretty face, but isn't she an awkward little thing?" Awkward I did look, but not half as uncomfortable as I really felt. It was because I couldn't be natural, and un
less you feel you are master, of your
self in every move and though you
become' self-conscious, and that self-
consciousness , steals your , individual
ity. . Answers to Correspondents.
I think for Edna C. Harlem, New
York City, a dark blue suit with white collars and cuffs, a simple: hat and
good walking shoes are the most sen
sible clothes for a girl to wear back and forth to the studio. They are
neat and do not look guadily untidy.

"I know where there is a jar of
seed," said Tiny to his brothers one day after he had been scampering about the closet in the house where they lived. Tiny was a little mouse and his brothers were named Whiskers
and Blinkey. ."You: are too.ltttle to be with us,' said Blinkey. .
"Yes, and Its too much bother to look out for you," said Whiskers, "you
would run right into a trap and not
know it.
So poor, little Tiny had to run about by himself when he could get away
from his mother, and this had been one of the days he had slipped away and found the panty. ' "Where Is the jar?" asked Whiskers . "In the pantry , on the top shelf," replied Tiny. - ; ' "In a jar," said Blinkey. "What good will it do us; you can not get the
top off a' jar." ?
"But I pushed It Off," said Tiny. -Without waiting to hear any more,
away scampered Whiskers and Blin
key, hitting poor, little Tiny as they ran, and over he rolled.
He jumped up and ran after them;
when he reached the top shelf his
brothers were looking at the jar with
an anxious expression.
"If we get in that jar we can not get
out," said Whiskers. "We shall slip back into the jar, the glass is too
smooth." "That was the reason I did not go in," said Tiny. "I could not climb up the outside, so I knew I could not get
out if I got in there."
"How did you get the cover off?" asked Blinkey. "I'll tell you how we can get them," said Whiskers. "I know where there is some molasses, and if Tiny puts some on his tail and then lets his tail down into the jar the seeds will stick to his tail. Then he can jump down, and we can eat the seeds from the end of his tail." Tiny was not so easy to convince as his brothers had thought, and when the molasses was brought he would not have it put on his tail until one of the others had tried it first So Whiskers was the one who had to make the first try. He stood on the top of the jar while Blinkey smeared the end of his tail with the sticky molasses; then he lowered it into the jar and brough ft out covered with the seeds. Tiny got his share, and after Whiskers thought he had worked long enough he jumped down. "Now, Tiny, you try it a while," he said; "it is great fun, only I can not get any seed ; it's my turn to eat now." "Blinkey will get more than his share if he eats all the time," said Tiny. "He can't eat off my tail." "All right, I won't let him." said Whiskers. "You jump up there and
give me a chance; I 'am hungry as anything." . '
Tiny jumped up and Blinkey said he
would pnt the molasses on Tlnys tail
because he knew just-how much to use, and of course, being behind Tiny he could not see who was getting the
seeds. All went well until Tlny's tall brought out an extra large quantity of seeds and both Whiskers and Blinkey
made a grab for it. Blinkey in his greediness grabbed too bard and bit the end of poor Tlny's tail so that he squealed and jumped, and over went the jar and the seed pilled out on the shelf. Tiny did not stop for the seeds. He scampered for home squealing as he went, to tell his mother how he had been treated by his brothers. . Tiny did go home to his .mother, but he came back in a few minutes. "There they are," he said. "I Bhowed them where It was, and they are eating the biggest share; I got only a little, and they bit my "tall, too." ' Mother Mouse looked, and when she saw the seeds she ran up to Whiskers and Blinkey "Go home this minute," she said, "you greedy fellows; never telling your poor, old mother a word
about all these nice seeds." Blinkey and Whiskers scampered as fast as they could, and Tiny, and his mother finished the seeds in ashort time. i ;; ";.'
