man." and the great majority Of the
things said by shakespeare hold good
today. 1t Is equally true Of the wOm-
an. 10 one admires a neat gown more
than I. but at the same time. what con-
stitutes proper dress? The tendency in
America. both among the women of the
stage and Of society Is toward over
dress. The shop girl. with her white
waist and neat cotton skirt, seated in
modest lunch room at the noon hour
Is a better dressed woman than many
whom l havee seen at the Waldorf AS
toria at the same hour, clad in rich
velvet and ablaze with jewels.
Proper dress consists. first. Of q dis
play Of good taste. which is usually
shown in mOdesty of raiment rather than
the other extreme. In order to dress
well, women should study themselves,
and so discover what Is most appro-
pirate to their peculiar charm. They
should possess individuality in the Sc
lection of their costumes. but should
know their own strength before attempt
ing anything that could be considered
daring in their raiment. A dress that

the mode. and would have no more SUBJ
lime effect than to cause her to be con-

most any woman can dress well-that Is.
becomingly, no matter how small her
income. And every woman desires to be
we'll gowned, for nothing so adds to her
appearance and her ability to please. It
is a feminine trait. this desire to please.
and a woman without it would to my
mind be most unfeminine creature.
But do not think that a lack Of prop
err dress could for any lenght of time
suppress real talent in an actress, nor
could a change of gowns several times
daily make an artistic Of one whose abil-
ity was limited to the selection of silks
aud laces alone. 1 know that many peo-
pie Of the stage, of average ability, place
great store by their personal appear
ance, and I dare say that many man
ayers, in choosing between richly gown
ed women and their less fortunate Sis
tiers Of equal ability, would give the pref
erence and the first trial to the possessor
of the most imposing wardrobe. The
only qualification with me would be abil-
ity to act, and would be certain to Sc
lect all of the shabby applicants. be-
cause would see they needed the work.
When it Is all summed up the fact re"
mains that it is ability that carries one
to the top of the ladder Of histrionio
fame. Clothes may secure for one an
for an engagement, but 1t

pany has received the following dispatch from
Constantinople, dated October 13:
There have been no further developments in

London. Oct 14.-"The Daily Telegraph has
the following dispatch from Sofia, dated yester-

created by payment. AS he is now fully con-
yinced that the brigands were merely instru-
ments acting under the instigation OF late mem
bers of the Macedonian Committee, he has made
strong representations to the Bulgarian Gov
ernment, asking the arrest of these insugators:
Should this be done. he says. Miss Stone would
doubtless be released on payment OF moderate
indemnity and assurance of freedom TOR her
captors Some Macedonians have already been
arrested here.
