SHE SAVED A DUTCHEss.
Called Upon TO Preserve the Figure
of Famous Beauty.


New York, Aug. 29.-The Duchess of
Marlborough has passed the stage when,
as an unconscious girl of II. she amazed
London with her fresh indebtedness.
She has had another birthday and has
bought a diamond belt. With the birth
day and the belt came a certain self-con-
seriousness. It is not a disagreeable pos
session, but it shows that Consuelo, Mis-
tress of Blenheim, appreciates now that
she is a success and that she intends to
keep her supremacy. This she can only
do by attention to herself her figure and
looks.
The attraction about this duchess, who
will certainly, like Sarah Spencer. the
first duchess, be eternally pictured. is
her Iankiness. Her long, slender figure
is the chief charm of her beauty. She Is
not very tall, and in a bathing suit she
would be far too lean, but in a parlor
gown, with sleeves bouffant, she is a
picture of grace and style. Add ten
pounds to that willowy figure, and it is
no longer magnetic. Add twenty pounds
and it is spoiled. The duchess weighs 100
pounds and her hight is feet 4 This
weight gives her that long ideal throat
those wrists so slender that they are
touching to see and that waist like stem
holding up its fower-like shoulders and
throat
Consuelo has learned enough in her first
season TO know that this figure is as diff
cult to keep as a rose in full bloom. 1t
spreads wide in spite of you. All around
her she has seen evidences of this early
loss of figure. The famous beauties all
went that way. And Consuelo is afraid of
it.
A short time ago Teresa Cook. a very Sc
lect figure artist" and Delsarte teacher.
If BOSTON. went over to London with let
ters 10 well-known society women. One
.of these letters was to her grace of MARI

beauty" said the Miss Cook smiling at the
duchess perplexity as she read the let
ter of introduction. Il preserve any fea-
ture you most want preserved. Now what
would your ladyship like most of all2"
'sTo keep my figure, - replied the duchess.
,.All women grow coarse in this vigorous
climate"
Thereupon Miss Cook promised. and be-
gan to give her pupil daily exercises. Her
FIRST lecture began like this:
