IsEEow BernharGt Kept her Prom
 ise,

On the eve of leaving America after her successful tour, Mmc. Sara Bernlarlt received the visit of a not less enthusiastic than a wealthy merchant of Chicago, who offered 10 buy up all the stalls, ats and boxes of the thcalcr if the great ar> tist would give but one more per formance of "Flou>Frou." As her departure would not admit of any delay, Sarah Bernhardt declined the offer of her admlrer, but said; "COme to Paris and l promise you to play Frou Frou' just to please you.' On Thursday last the merchant of Chicago went to see the actress, guessing that Mme. Bernhardt had nos forgotten her premise. He guessed rightly. "Frou- Frou" was immediately announced; and the Chicago merchant not only took as many boxes and stalls as were re qnired for the accommodatinn ot his numerous friends ani acquaintances but sent to sarah baqcet Of three roses. They were kept together by a girdle of huge diamonds.
