''HOw so?" Well, take one of the
Vanderbilt children or George Gouid's
baby, for instance. The child's feet
from its birth are carefully attended,
bathed daily and only the best kind of
shoes and the finest of stockings put
on it;
''Then for children just walking we

1t is safe rule to go by that no modest,
respectable woman ever puts herself in

they achieve is just what they go to the

''She has white hose"

writer in the Chicago Mail. A young
man waited upon one of the ladies' A
moment later he came to the proprietor,
with whom was talking, and said, ''She

The proprietor made a reply that l
did not quite understand, and the clerk

that the clerk had made such an OBJ

of M. CernuSchl's no use in the avenue

one of the great sights of the city. Peo

sion that 1000 invitations were sent
out, by actual count more than 1900
guests were present, and yet nowhere
and at no time was there any crOwding.
Nj. CernuSchi was clad in Japanese
costume, and so were the dozen bachelor
friends who assisted him in receiving
the guests, and as they stood together
at the top of the great marble staircase
they presented such scene Of plctur-
esque magnificence as is not to be de-
scribed, nor even to be imagined, save
in the dreams of one who has been
reading The Count of Monte Criste.
1t was intended originally that dane
ing should be begun by Mile. Jeanne
Hugo, the granddaughter of the poet,
and some thirty other young ladies Sc
lected for their beauty. But Mile.
Jeanne Hugo was too i'll, and this plan
was abandoned. But the scene in the
great bronze gallery was just as brilliant
as it could be. Such costumes We're
never seen before, and the value of the
jewels worn was to be reckoned by
millions of dollars. A conspicuous
figure was Nine. Gauthereau, the noted
creole beauty. She was dressed as
Cupid, and of course her raiment was
exceedingly scanty. But she was lit
orally incrusted with gold and
gems. The abbreviated skirts of
her costume were actually made
of pure gold, spun and woven into
gauze so delicate that it was not much
heavier than silk. Another much-ad-
mired costume was that of the famous
beauty, Nine. Bernardaki. She was
Diana. Her bodice was of blue velvet,
and her skirt of white satin. and every
stitch in the seams of these was marked
by diamond or sapphire. Hanging
over her shoulders was panther's
skin, and her hair was powdered, not
with diamond dust, but with diamonds
and SapphireS as big as peas, all held in
place by network of gold thread. She
had on her person more than S250,000
worth of precious stones. Mile. Marie
Van Zandt, the American singer, was
esteemed one of the most beautiful
ladies present. The daughter of NJ.
Carolus Duran was charming in
Japanese dress. Her father was attired
as Hindoo rajah, and not, as one
might have expected, as Velasquez.
Nine. Pasta, the actress, wore set of
real imperial Russian sables, one of less
than dozen sets in the world owned
by persons outside of royalty. She had
also marvellous coronet OF pearls and
diamonds said to be worth more than
100000. l will not attempt to tell who
all were there; unless / simply say
