Reporter-If I'm not too inquisitive,
let me ask you now something about YOUR
wardrobe, the number and style OF the
dresses, especially In "Mary Stuart"
LADY DedloCk," and Temptation ?"
Janauschek-l have sixty.six with me:
but that Is only a part Of my wardrobe.
In "Chesney Wold,n as LADY Dedlock"
and "Hortense," wear nine different
costumes, In Temptation as "Vaerie,"
| wear six, and as MARY Stuart" only |
three Ny dressmaker is Madame FRANKIE, |
She has her principal house in Frankfort,
but she has branch house in Paris, and
thinks Of establishing another either in
New York or Washington. She is the
dressmaker for eight different courts In
Europe, and among others for Queen Vic
toria. She has over one hundred French
dressmakers at work for her in her own
house, and as many more out oil It. Worth
Is mere pigmy in comparison with her.
She rarely takes measure. All a LADY,
has 70 do Is to send her dress that
fits, and she will make up new one
IN the modern style. Here Is this
large royal purple velvet overmantle,
bound with black ChantilIy. l paid in
Europe $l2 gold for that velvet, and the
violet silk dress worn under it is very
rich. Look at the waist: You see 1t Is
lined with heavy white silk; all her
dresses arc. Then here Is the black silk,
with wide white church lace,
also worn in Temptation" The lace is
very expensive, and is used in rich calhe.

Then here ia my white silk and black
aCes, worn IN the last scene Of MARY
Stuart" it is the correct costume. All
these dresses, with the laCes, cost from
5000 TO 81 $50 apiece, but they are so
good they can hardly ever wear out.
And here are McChlin and Brussels laces,
collars, capes and trimmings, the garni'

aces can only be obtained. l have given
much study 10 the costumes Of MARY
