IL about the richest actress In this country, and.
unlike some others who made q fortune from
their profession. she was willing TO retire
several years ago and live on the means which
she had accumulated. Tho prudent invest

the foundation Of her fortune. and this was In a
great measure due to the shrowdness OF her
mother. who was famous in the profession for
her keen business sense. That was, indeed,
proverbial. and Miss Crabtree's active meas
ures against the stock brokers, whom she
thinks responsible for her losses. are
said to be due to her complete, lack Of
experience with business transactions that fail
to yield her a profit. Much OF her property 10

The prevailing popularity OF the outing cos-
tune has not been accomplished without some
curious results, and unfamiliarity with its de-
tails has led to strange happenings in some
places. A clergyman in o New Jersey town

popularity is chiefly based. She was to have

for q year. Her previous appearances at the
Metropolitan were not so successful as they
might have been, and the great auditorium wt.S

keeper. land anybody who thinks hey are has
only to remember the Martini cocktail. AS the
Turf Club cocktail II was popular nearly twenty
years ago. and the only change there has been
in it since that time is in the name. Yet only a
few years ago the Martini cocktail was looked
upon as something now. It's the same way
with q brand Of English gin that hns lately be-

same extent it is now until three or four years
