Thrilling Experiences of Otis
Skinner's "Leading Lady11 While
Driving Hospital Trucks in France
Insert is One of Miss Rose's
Four French War Babies
for Whom She Works
Incessantly.
By PEGGY NATTINGER.
RUTH ROSE, although you may
be the leading lady of the
"Mister Antonio" company; al
though you have had thrilling
experiences in your truck driving
days in Paris, you are just a sweet,
unassuming girl for a' that!
It was hard to believe that this slip
of a girl who sat talking to me with
her biar. brown eves dancing had
reallv driven three trucks in Paria
far several months.
"I was doing refugee work at first,"
said Miss Rose," and as the days
went on it seemed to me that there
was not a person in the world who
was not a refugee."
These poor people who had been
fought over for so long were put into
trains arid shinned into Paris. Miss
Rose says that they all huddled in the
corners of the cars like cattle and it
was onlv after coaxing for IS or 20
minutes that they were able to get
them to come out where hot coffee
and warm clothes awaited them, pro
vided by the Red Cross.
The, actress was one of the first
women to drive a 'truck in France
add the French people used to stop
itl the streets in Paris, open-mouthed
as she. went by, with her huge load of
provisions, or officers, or Red Cross
nurses or whatever she had to trans
port from one place to another. The
French women do not do this work,
lor seme unknown reason, and it is
only the American girls of English
girls who have done this heavy labor.
Pride of Her Life
"Oh, you must see my Croix de
Guerre, crimed Miss Rose, "Its the
produest thing of my life." Unclasp
ing a tiny wrist-watch she hahded it
to me. Turning over the d.linty little
bit of jewelry I read "pour service"
on the back. The watch xvas pre
sented to her by some English and
French officers who had been con
nected with the branch of war work
in which Miss Rose was engaged,
She may well be proud of her "Croix
de Guerre" for surely she did a big
nit during her stay in war riddled
France.
Thrilling Experience.
Thrilling experience of being a
.uspected spy in the early days of

itories the slim, blue-suited little pa
triot told me. A tiny service button
gleamed on her blouse and I scented

MISS RUTH ROSE
Charles Frohman for years and is the
author of the play, "The Rosary." It
is very natural tot me to turn to the
stage, I don't froth at the mouth or
paw the ground when I small grease
paint, and I shall never cause Bern
hardt any worry, for I have no high
aspirations, but am deeply interested
in the stage; it's itist my work, that's
all."
Here I Am!
"The first time I ever saw 'Mister
Antonio,' I thought I should like to
play the part of June Ramsay! and
nere I am!''
Miss Rose has four godsons whom
she laughingly says keep her. poor
buying them things. She was indus
triously knitting on a sweater tor one,
a Zouave, who hid aroused her sym
pathy by his woebegone look and evi
dent loneliness.
This Massachusetts Rose speaks
with a true southern accent and she
says many pe6ple think it is English,
so she suits everyone all around.
Bit of Personality.
When questioned about the follies
of the New York girls, such as shav
ing the eyebrows, etc., she laughed
heartily. She doesn't approve of
those things and In fact she is just
the most unaffected, charming young
lady that anyone could wish to meet.
You have a feeling that you would
like to ask her to go to a 10-cent
movie or have a gne of tennis, if the
weather permitted, or do any of those
friends-you-have -known-all -your-life
stunts. . ,
We'll say goodby with regret, Ruth
Rose, and trust that it will just b au
revoir and not really goodby!

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected
An Tm5nW nhvftician for One
of the prominent Life Insurance
Companies, In an interview of the
subject, made the astonishing state
ment that one reason why so many
applicants for insurance are rejected
Is because kidney trouble ia so com
mon to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose appli
cations are declined do not even sus
pect that they have the disease.
Judging from reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, ther is one
preparation 'that has been very suc
cessful in overcoming these condi
tions. The mild and healing influence
of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
We find that Swamp-Root is strict
ly an herbal compound and we would
advise our readers who feel in need
of such a remedy to give it trial. It
is on sale at all drug stores in bottles
of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents
to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.
Y., for a sample bottle. When writ
ing be sure and mention The Omaha
Sunday Bee. Advertisement.
