Girls are busy as bees at the count

are sold. Black gros-g grain belts are
rather more smart than the satin ones
In order to produce the desired effect
of being high in the back, yet low in
front, where only a below-the- belt fin.
ish is required, girdle is made Of
three lengths OF ribbon. In the middle
of the back, the affair is stiffened b.
whalebone and the lengths of ribbon
are stayed in place, one above another
The girdle is much smaller at this

entirely above the waist line and il
very small below the waist, where i

tains TO the belt of white alligato

rect finish although if you prefer yol
can have one with silver finish.
Little girls wear the belt Of blacl

The Letters Received by an actress

NAmelia Bingham, who at the mo-
sant occupies large place in the pub
n eve. writes about THE Actress on
H. Stage" in the Woman's Home
MDmpanion. She has something inter-
Sting to say about the mail which a
age woman receives daily:
brew professionals have any
/ ca of the mass of letters that the
Sjstman leaves for an actress every
zorning-I speak, of course, only of
stresses in conspicuous roles. First
here are the autograph collectors,
8hose name is legion. | know that
Sany persons beg autographs from ac-
Sesses for much the same reason that
ahey seek them from muir
Herers and heroes Of the pugilistic
s-orld. Yet ! never refuse my auto
8raph. | realize that among autograph
lends there are many really sensible
leople, who get a good deal OF honest
|leasure from gathering the signatures
III persons in the public eye.
"Then there are the people who
write to tell one what they think Of
last nights performance. These letters
hive much pleasure to an actress. Mos
bf them are from women-the mer
Ieeming to fear that their letters woult
be misconstrued as attempts at tlirta
.ion-and most of them are letters q
bOmmendation. But there are some
that contain severe denunciations. Ye
they are all welcome to the actress
who really wants to do her best. Thu
nice letters encourage her for wha
She has done already, and the no
nice ones always stimulate her to IT.
TO improve still further. An actress
receives many a valuable hint for i'm
through the non-profes
siOnal letters.
Next come the invitations to after
noon affairs, Sunday drives ant
things. If an actress were to accep
all Of these she could find time to d
else. Begging letters from al
kinds of people are found in grea
numbers in the morning mail; peopl
begging for money direct, others beg
ging for a little start in the actress
company, many begging to be allowe
to read or submit new plays-play
that never prove to be worth tn
while"
