Keeping Their Costumes Secret.

Actors and actresses are nightly
distressed when they appear in new
role said q dramatic manager of ex-
perience. .'leSt some other actor or ac-
tress should manage to see or get de-
scription of their cost me. and either
reproduce it first or else make it a sub
iect of gossip in professional circles. 1t
isn't easy to understand their feelings
when a costly costume has been bought
to find some one else reproducing it on
the stage. The dress of the actor and
actress is part of their capital. 1t is
not thought 20 be stealing in the pro
fesSion. however. if an actress can get
the best of her sister actress by appro-
priating her ideas. The argument used
is that if one cannot guard her profess
sional secrets. then she had better not
90 into the business. The stories of
the pains that actresses have taken to
learn what a popular rival intends to
wear would fill book. To be outwit-
ted in this way is 4 disgrace, and now
a-davs il is rarely done. Indeed, it is
not so attractive an amusement as 1t
used to be, for in first-ciass theaters
actors haven't a word to say about
what thev shall wear. The manager
dictates every garment to be worn,
both in design and color. The reason
is that the picturesque. effects of stage
grouping are closely studied, and an
effort is made to present at every new
situation a new picture to the eye-a
picture that might be a model in every
way for painting. In the matter of
color the tone is carefully studied, and
all the tints in walls, carpets, furniture.
and dress are selected according to the
laws of harmony or of contrast.
.'In minstrel or variety perform
ances. however, such nicely cannot be
of use. and erfOrmers select whatever
they please for costume. Where they
get their clothing made is a mystery.
If by accident YOU should learn the adj
dress. and should ask the milliner, or
dressmaker. or tailor, or shoemaker for
whom the bonnet, or dress or suit, or
shoes are being made. you would be
met by the polite and firm reply that
the gentleman or lady who left the or
der requested that it should be kept
secret At dress rehearsals where per-
formers are required to appear as they
propose TO perform on first nights, the
actress will often appear in street cos
tune, and put in excuses, sometimes
plausible, often absurd. to account for
the omission. Some popular singers
and actresses l know, whose dresses
are admired, have resOrted to learning
the knack of dressmaking, so that they
may be sure that their secret is safe.
TO their friends they say that those
dress makers are so unreliable that
they. the actresses, were driven to
making their own costumes. They
have been held to be weak and foolish
for being jealous of each other" added
the manager. but it seems to me that
if they are, they are to be excused by
the public. ~. Y. San.

ladies and gentlemen might be seen

And yet even in Paris no street was

Much can always be done to relieve
financial distress in any community by
the prompt payment of bills. This is
true. as a matter of course, and is uni
versaly accepted when applied to the pay
ment OF large sums. But the relief
which would be afforded il a large number
of persons would, in all instances where
possible, pay small bills promptly, is not
properly appreciated. Many nickel
makes a "mickle," is hereby presented rs
a new version of an old Scotch saying,
applicable to our present period; and it is
quite true that If all small amounts due in
any city were paid az once. by the parties
who could pay them without a particle OF
distress TO themselves, a very large aggre-
gate OF money would be put in circulation
and trade benefited thereby to great ex-
tent. Many firms are now doing a bust
ness which affords them very small
margin of profit, and who sell a great
many small bills to as many different per-
sons. and in such cases it is absolutely
necessary that they should collect promptly
and closely, if they are TO continue busi-
ness al all. This is 4 matter OF interest to
