Miss TyIer's Gowns.

First. one must know how to wear a dress; it's possession is of secondary mat ter Miss Tyler's costumes grace the wearer. the wearer designs the costumes; more need not be said for either. The dresses worn in the MacLean and Tyler productions of ''The School For Scandal" are so beautiful that a brief description of them will be found interesting
 In the ballroom scene Lady Teazle ap- pears in white and gold brocade, en- crusted with pearls and worn over a gold starred petticoat. Her hair is dressed with a diamond agrette and slippers with Louis Quinze heels and immense tur- auose buckles, are not the least part of a beautiful costume. In the second act is worn a blue and gold brocade dropped over a skirt of duchess lace studded with rhinestones. What is known as beef eater hat of blue velvet and long plumes completes that which makes a lovely pie ture
 In the famous screen scene. Lady Teazle is gowned in a brocade of violets and cornhowers. The edge of the froek is trimmed with bands of tiny rosebuds and the sleeves are cascades with the same flowers. The inside skirt is made of alter nate bands of satin and point lace and finished with rosebuds. The hat is a Gainsborough of purple velvet, trimmed with white feathers.
 The chef d'oevre of these costumes is particularly interesting; it is a hand painted gown of exquisite design and ex- ecution that required two and half months to complete. The designer and i,,fa NF g- sl +y,,ff is TN-lnT self It is pink broeade on which wreaths of roses. yellow daisies and forget-me- nots almost yield perfume. The sleeves are of lace and the flowers have been cut from the silk and transplanted to them; the effect is an indescribable combina- tion of flowers, sea foam, silvery spray and lovely woman.

Return of MacLean and Miss Tyler.

The return engagement of the talented company headed by MT. MacLean and Miss Tyler, will be welcomed by theatre goers of every class. It is greatly to the credit of all concerned that the expensive experiment of bringing to all places visit ed such productions as have heretofore been confined to Metropolitan circles, has been successful. As a people we are gen. erous subscribers to the best. but when paying for superiority, nothing short of the things claimed are satisfactory. The MacLean-Tyler Company fullfls it's agree ments The magnificent staging of King John Coriolanus and the School for Scan- dal, wherever played, and at every per formance. can not be excelled. Just as natures offerings have been made to as- sume new hues and blendings by eX- pert gardening and scientific research. so Shakespeares and Sheridans immortali ty is perpetuated by the MacLean stage methods which endeavor to present the great authors dramas in a manner wor- thy the beauty of the spoken lines.
 The School for Scandal will be perform ed at the Thursday matinee and Coriola- nus at night.
