Jusserands, the Saturday previous to the
Hengelmullers, and this week the Brit
ishers will be given a glimpse into the

look and, apropos of this, I hear that the
senator and his wife are to have portraits
Of themselves thus attired. Mrs. Cruger
set this example, so all those who wish

of twentieth century society, but there are
fairly good makers Of faces still in ex-

to be painted in France during the COM
ing summer. .....
