French provinclab Life.

There is usually plenty of gayety
going on in the country places around
Paris. Not so in the provincial
chateaus, where the great families of
the old ar~istocraey now spend a con-
siderable portion of the year. The
shooting season brings visitors and
consequent animation for a short
time, but the simplicity of the usual
home life would astonIsh English pre-
conceived ideas.
The first meal is habitually served
in the bedrooms-tea, coffee or choco-
late on a tray, with a roll and butter.
Many. however, have kept more primi-
tive ways, and we could name ladies
Of princely rank beginning the day
with a bowl of pumpkin soup. We
may quote an instance of a young
English lady, who. by a very rare
privilege. vas permitted on a visit to
share the private lite of a great
French family in their chateau. The
Marquise -. a dignified old lady,
who looked as though she had stepped
down from the frame of one of the
old family portraits, inquired what
her visitor wished to take for her
breakfast. The young stranger, con-
siderably frightened and bewildered
by her new surroundings, answered
shyly:-
Tea or coffee, or anything, Nine.
lie Marquise, please"
my dear" was the reply, 'you are
my guest, and of course you shall
have anything you like, but my
daughters take soup, and if you are
wise you will do as they do. Young
people should avoid contracting
habits
OF course the hint was sufficient,
and the English girl breakfasted on
onion soup, but it seemed very strange
and was decidedly uncongenial.
When the church is near the ladies OF
the family usually go to early mass.

chateaus are not usually near the vii

Joseph Jenerson,s WIG.

The talk that is going on about tn g
marriage of Ward McAtlister's nephew
with a ballet girl recalls an interesting
incident in the life of Joseph Jeffer-
son, the comedian. When Jefferson
returned from his triumphal engage
ment in London, a number of New
York sweils determined to honor the
actor who had made so great a stir in
England; accordingly a splendid
dinner was given to Jefferson, and all
the conspicuous representatives of
Gotham swelldom were there.
1t befell that ON the very morning
of the day when this great banquet
was served, Jefferson's son, Tom,
married a very pretty and estimable
girl who had been q member of one of
the spectacular ballots. So, during
the banquet, one of the guests Ia very
swell personage), referred to a news
paper item in which Toms prospect
i've wedding was mentioned.
"Yes, it is true said Mr.. Jefferson,
TON was married today"
But it is not true, | suppose, that
he married a ballet girl?n inquired the
aristocratic person.
Eyes, it is true,n answered Mr.. JEFF
ferson laconically.
"Ah, | did not suppose you would
allowyour son to marrya ballet girl,
said the other.
And why notf'' asked Mr.. Jeffer-
son. His mother was a ballet girlr'

Perhaps the best known pearl neck
lace in London is that of the Countess
Tolstoi, wife of that sturdy Radical.
Mr.. Philip Stanhope, NJ. p. The
stones are not only large and perfect
in shape, but nearly black in color, a
peculiarity which. though some will
think it does not add to beauty, is by
reason of its rarity exceptionally val
uable. The Baroness Henry De
Worms, wife of the Under Secretary
of the Colonies, also has a notable
necklace-this one of diamonds. There
will presently be in the field a new
competitor, (says the London cores
pondent of the Liverpool POST the
contest being the more interesting
since the new conner is a connection by
marriage of the Baroness De Worms.
The necklace is not new, though it
has not been seer in London drawing
rooms for some years. 1t was the
property of the late Countess of DIRK
new. and was a present to her from
her first husband, Baron de Samuel, a
peer of Portugal. The necklace is in
three rows, and contains in all 100
pearls. many of large size. The
Countess left the necklace to her son,
Mr.. Arthur De Vail, and Mrs. De
Vail viii in the coming season be the
envled wearer of the priceless ropes"

FLORENCE ON FIRST NIeHTsp
He Says That the Success or Failure of
Plays Depends Upon Them.


Plays Depends Upon Them.
"The first night, " says the veteran actor,
Billy Florence, settles a play, and news
paper praise or condemnation cannot alter
the fact. A play may be pronounced superb
by all the critics and every actor capable
of judging, but | tell you If the people
don't come the first night they never will.
On the other hand, a play may be vile, and
the newspapers may honestly and properly
say so, but II the people come the first
night its success is assured. / don't pro-
fess to explain it. | simply state the fact.
There is some intuition about the matter,
l guess.
Some years ago | produced at Wallack's
theater, in New York, a play called Mar
rl'ge,' which | honestly considered one of
the very best things l had ever read. 1
was charmed with it. Everybody said it
was sure to be a success, The first night
we had a wretched house, but the next
morning the press notices were most com
plimentary, and my hopes rose. Thu people
never came. and the play was a failure.
Later l produced what | thought a great
play, called Rescued in Booths new the
alter. With all Che surroundings Of a beau
tiful new house the opening night was u
failure. The piece was well put on and
well acted, and the newspapers spoke of it
in the highest terms of praise. But the
people wouldn't come to see it.
'In London, thinking again of Mar
riage,' | made up my mind that such a
great play could not be doomed to eternal
failure. l produced it in the Haymarket
theater, under the title Of The Bride
John 5. Clarke predicted a great future
for it. Boucicault said that the first act
alone would achieve a certain triumph for
1t. That Is what | thought. The people
didn't come the first night, and they did
not come at all It was a CHASTITY failure
Down in Baltimore | produced The Old
Stager.' The Associated Press, tina for
years 1 had vainly tried to rave telegraph
something about my openings, sent
throughout the country, at no suggestion
of mine, a glowing notice Of the first per
Torrance. But the people were not there,
and they never got there.
Mckee Rankin said it was great, and l
agreed with him, but the people didn't.
Frank Mayo said it was bound to succeed.
No. It WON'T l said, any more han Your
"Nordeck" will What do you meant'
he said. They are both great plays l re-
piled, but the first nights were bad and
they can't succeed Notice the other side
Of the question. In 1915, in New York, l
produced The Almighty Dollar before a
crowded house. The ~wspap the next
day agreed in saying that there was moth
ing in the piece aud that it was certain to
fail. | played it almost ~consecutively for
fourteen years. 1t has been one of the
greatest successes known in America"
