in Brooklyn society. A few years ago,
just after graduating at MINIS. Giraud's
school, she eloped with young gentle
man who proved to be penniless clerk
in gents furnishing store. Her faith:

street, n. Y, but he became dissipated
and finally separation was arranged
at the young wifeFs request. Since
then she has resided under the parental

that it was impossible to tell whether
she is blonde or brunette, and identi-

who see her dancing through Prospect
