MEN MAY SMOKE
IN DRAWING ROOM

Special Cable to The Herald.
PARIS, April 29,-The late hour at
which dinners generally begin in fash
ionable Paris houses is causing a grad
ual revolution in society customs here.
1t is now so late when dinner is over
that if the men go to the smoking room
for cigar afterward, by the time they
finish the cigar and have rejoined the
ladies in the drawing room it is time
to go home.
Conversation of men alone or women
alone is generally as duh and common
place as 1t is in America.
Many liberal minded Partisan hos
tesses therefore are permitting. when
they are sure there will be no objection
among the ladies', men to smoke a Gig
arctic or even a cigar in the drawing
room.

said "is that they are simply Infamous.

should women wish to accept a fash

figure and is veritable crime against
beauty? The present feminine toilette
is practical and beautiful; it is mascu-

yet you refuse to give up them. Look
at your trousers, also an abomination
from the point of view of symmetry.
Knickbockers are the proper thing to

The correspondent tried to conceal
his legs under his chair, glancing fur
lively at the same time at his tall hat,
which was painfully evident. Then
he escaped to Celine Chaumont, who
agreed with Bernhardt that the crino-
line is a crime against beauty and also
disorganizes social life

wearing crinolines and riding in car
riages would be simply ridiculous.
Then the greatest attention is necee-

adopt the crinoline If they desire, I re-

nation of her elders against the crino-
line.
II adore the eighteenth century"
she said, which showed women of real
worth and appreciated the real
aesthetics of the feminine toilet. Then
women wore great bustles; what is
the crinoline If not a renewal of this
style? Ample robes alone are grace
full; they diminish the bust, give the
figure suppleness and permit graceful
movements. 1t Is probably not intend
ed to reproduce the crinoline exactly
as it was under the empire, it will
doubtless be adapted to modern re-
quirements; besides there are no ugly
styles for those who know how to wear
their clothes

hard to utter word in the presence
of an official. All sorts or alarming
rumors spread outside the palace and
one was that the chill which he con-

lungs. The real truth was that the
royal teeth were giving considerable
trouble. The king has always suffered
a good deal of pain from his teeth,
and he suddenly made up his mind to
have every tooth in his head extracted
There was a consultation of eminent
dentists. the royal teeth were pulled
out, and finally a brand new set of
teeth was fixed in the royal mouth.
1t took some days before he could get
used to them. He could neither eat
nor talk with comfort. Apart from
this trouble. the king is a little flag

he has preserved the strictest incog-

The deepest mine shaft has been
sunk to a little more than n mile In
Cape Colony and the deepest bore
hole has reached the same depth In
Silesia. 1t is said that there should
be no insurmountable difficulties in
carrying shaft down twelve miles.
An approximate estimate has shown
that to reach a depth of two miles the
cost would be $2,500,000. Ten years
would be required and a rock tempera-
ture of 122 degrees Fahrenheit would
bo found; while to penetrate twelve
miles would cost $25,000,000 and
would take eighty-five years, the rock
temperature expected being 272 de.
