not invite her to tea.
She is one of the richest women on the
stage. With all her capacity for spend
ing money, she has, nevertheless,
frugal mind. She knows by heart the
old American millionaire's recipe for
getting rich, II always spend less'n i
make" Her frugal mind and her
shrewdness she inherits from long line
of Jersey ancestry, of the tribe of those
who settled New Jersey, u. S. A.
Here in, Jersey a woman who was one
of Mrs. Langtry's schoolmates says of
her: "She was a very plain girl. She
wasn't considered bit pretty" A man
who knew her at the same time says:
you should have seen her at 49, She
was a vision of loneliness"
Mrs. Langtry' mother is still living
here in the island of Jersey. I visited
her the other day. She is an invalid
now and aged. "She owns to S2,' said
the rosy girl who attends her. That is
enough, one would think In her youth
Mrs. LIE Breton was beautiful, too; per-
haps even more SO than her daughter.

he waited. Later came women crowd
Ing into The line, carrying camp stools
and their knitting. Scores brought cold
tea and sandwiches. Take away his tea
from the Briton, and from prince to
NAVY he would rise in revolt in "a
hours. The crowd about the theater
swelled till it took 100 London police
men to manage it. At 3 o'clock Mrs.
Langtry herself, in an impulse of big
heartedness and very handsome
gown, ordered tea and cakes for the
whole exhausted crowd of waiting pur-
ehasers.
Mrs. Langtry has not had such an
advertisement since she got the historic
black eye. At that time the knowing
ones declared her career was ended
and prophesied that she would never
again be received in good society
Well, she has given these her an-'
swer. Today she is received into what
flatters itself it is good society. Con-
ventional. society must necessarily be
dull and scrunching to one of Mrs.
Langtry's tastes and free spirit, and

is anything but stupid mentally. She
has a vigorous, cultivated intellect. OF
the seven children of the LIE Bretons
only three are alive, the Lily and two
brothers. One of these, William. the
eldest of the family, a man of uncom-
mon strength and stature, is retired
Indian army officer. The other, Glenn
ent, is barrister in London. The
Youngest of the family, Reginald, was
the champion boxer of Jersey and glo-

Mrs. Langtry was born in the rectory
of the parish of st. Saviour in
Jersey. The house is a fine. rambling
old stone mansion near the parish
church. 1t is built on the slope
of an emerald green gully. AS you
look over the stone wall from the
road you see wide grounds, fat and
tender garden vegetables, and large
clean pigs lazing in their sties-every-
thing suggestive of fresh air, plenty of
room and the animal comforts of life
in perfection. In these fair surround

people still held them even after his
death, though he had left their island

Her Early Life.

UNDOUBTEDLY there is such
thing as luck, although those who
have had the best of luck usually
deny its existence and attribute their
good fortune to their own superior
merits. We are also warned to pro-
nounce no one fortunate till after he Is
dead, but, at any rate, so far as she has
travelled in her nearly 46 years of life
an unvarying influence of good luck
has attended her who may be called at
once the most iaudacious the most sue
cessful and the most fascinating wo-
man of her time-Lillie Langtry. 1t is
not true that the Prince of Wales gave
her the name of Lily. He put the Jer-
sey to it, but here in her own native
island she was known in her childhood
as Lille. Furthermore, for her gayety
and beauty, her health and high spirits,
her sweet voice and charm Of manner,
she is a chip not only of one old block,
but two, her father and mother both.
Her good luck is purely her own, and it
goes with her in everything, from run
ming play to race horse.
Her inherited health, dash, good tenn
per and high animal spirits carry her
safe through all. She is also one Of the
best dressers among living women. Her
costumes are eagerly looked Tor, de-
scribed in the public prints and copied.
The play with which she opened the
season, 1.-THE Degenerates,'' coined
money in London, and has gone, to
America. On the occasion of it's
one hundredth London representa-
ton the Lily announced that she would
present, printed on satin, Rudyard
Kiplings poem 1.-THE Absent Minded
Beggar" as souvenir to every seat
holder. The result was a rush for
tickets unprecedented even in London.
Those who could not afford to pay for
seats except in the gallery formed the
biggest and the most determined crowd
of all. The first applicant took his place
ct the theater door at 6:20 in the morn

ABour Wells.

When money is scarce there seems
nothing that runs away with ones
money so fast as wells. Their life is g
very short lived one, and often a mis-
ruins them as soon az
bought. Yet we must wear them If we
want to look smart and to buy cheap
ones is worse than useless, as they
never look well from the day they are
bought. The truest economy is to buy
fine net by the yard. 1t cuts to bet-
ter advantage, you get four wells for
the price of one and it is of a far better
quality and lasts longer than If you
buy yelling pure and simple.

it as she likes and is none the Jess
popular.
From her girlhood she has slapped
the world in the face and done exactly
as she pleased, yet, when she willed it
so, the world of society took her up
after her widest escapades and gave
her her old place exactly as far as she
cared to hold it-all but two or three

immortal island Of Jersey 1t is sad to

The last item OF dress news on my list
concerns shirt waists. Already the wool

ones are cut without Jokes and are
straight sack shape affairs with the
fullness unconfined. Neither draw
string nor belt holds 1t in at the waist
line, and the privilege of adjusting is
left to the wearer. Narrow linen tape
belts, with fiat suspender buckles, are
sold for the purpose Of holding the shirt
in place and are more satisfactory
and convenient means than was the
stitched on belt, which was seldom
rightly located.
Alternating rows Of lace and nainsook

stead of vertically are the feature Of the
lace shirt which will continue to flour
ish in the garden of dainty belongings.
