Home Life of Mrs. . Rensselaer, Crugcr,
Society Woman and Author.
Mrs. Crugsr is q very beautiful woman.
of rather more than average height. writes
Mrs. M. E. w. Sherwood, in the May Lip
pineott. She is taller Than the Venus de
Msdici-about the size Of the Venus of
Milo; and, AZ Heine said of Grisi, she has
the arms which that stutue has lost. Most
noble are these fine arms; and the hands
are large and we'll shaped, with each taper
finger going off into pink as il it had Just
crushed itself into a strawberry. The face
10 peculiar. The nose is "tip-tilted like the
petal of a flower"-the "nez Watteau'-
the lips red, and the teeth white and fresh
as those of a young fawn. Indeed, there 10
something like the lawn In this original
face.
Tbs eyes are not free from q little tilt at
the outer corner, something remotely jap
anese in shape, but the color of the iris is
sea-grsen, the color of an aquamarine stone;
sea, at which she must have looked long
and dreamily, making it a part OF her be-
ing. From those strange eyes one gets the
keynote of q hayward and commanding
genius which sways the woman. perhaps
against her will. Fawn-like, much of the
of this woman whose eloquent blood
speaks in her cheeks, in her general pink
ness. for her skin has a tine, healthy, rose
ate tint. as if she loved long walks, horse
back exercise, to row a boat, and to a
cold baths. Her hair IL profuse and curly,
a dark brown; so she is neither blonde nor
brunette, rather what the French call Cha
taigne.
Mrs. Crugsr lives delightfully."- in New
York. her house of Russian spoils and
works of art, bear skins on the floor, easy
chairs, musical instruments, heavy portleres
and bright sunny boudoir, with wood fire,
all the delightful confusion and well-rsgu-
lated disorder of a woman's furnishing who
has always had all that she wants.
So far as the world knows Mrs. Cruger
has never had a wish ungratified. She
writes, therefore, as Planchette writes, be-
cause the spirit moves her, not to parry the
keen bayonet of starvation, not to support
family or friend; that has been done out"
for her; and therefore the curiosity to see
what she did write was very great, for w
all acknowledge necessity to be tho usual
inspirer of good work.
The suddenness Of her success can only
be compared to hat of "Jane Eyre and
those who ~criticiss her playing with edged
tools must remember What was said of thrt
famous book. The British matron would
have none of it, because Rochester was Il
married man, now it il a nursery classic.
Mrs. Cruger has rushed with a freel foot
and a free lance into the kingdom of love,
not minding much whether the men AMI
women had other and more legal ties to
bind their affections. "Mon legitime,'' as
the emperor called his empress. is not al
ways possessed of her rights in these dash-
ing stories; hence some severe criticiams. 4.
