SALARY FOR NOTHING.
"
LONDON ACTRESS WHO"
GETE IT.
There is in London an actress who has had a salary for -four years and nothing to do for it.
In 1916 Mis Marianne Caldwell
was engaged "for the run of the piece." for "Chu Chin Chow" at His Majesty's Theatre.
Before this obstinately successful play was produced it was found that Miss Caldwell need not be called up- on for the part she had rehearsed, and her services have never been re- quire since. Every week a cheque for her salary is sent her, and in acknowledging the receipt of it she 258, where she may be found if wanted in a hurry. The outstanding feature of the part for which she was cast is an "infectious” laugh, saya the Daily Mail.
So much out of the limelight has this lucky actress been that when asked for a photograph of herself the other day she could not produce one.
