PARIS, July 81. 1906
The steady visitor to Paris knows the
value OF the theater as school for fine
dressing. Life before the footllghts de-
mands in every land the utmost care in
point of toilettes, bat nowhere IS such per-
lection seen as the Partisan actress dis
plays. The gowns for the great artists
are made by great people, model is
ever reproduced by them in the slightest
detail, and every atom of the wearers
personality is considered Besides this. ma
ierials as precious, even more so sometimes,
as are required for the grandest social
event are employed, and so religiously is
the least trihing point worked over that
the costume is in the end a faultless won

The first night of all the theaters, re-
nowned for fine dressing, the crush is

A bathing cap which actually improves
the appearance Of the wearer Is certainly
a novelty well worth describing. 1t is out
this year. and no longer does the summer
girl dread to add waterproof cap to her
bathing costume, for this new one Is really
good looking. It Is made In q very clever
way. being really q bathing cap and hand

up to the front OF the cap, and are there
tied In q Jaunty bow; the ends are kept
In place by strap which Is just large
enough to hold them SO that they do
not slip after tying.

very beginning of her stage career Nine
Hading realized that hers was a dlfncuIt
figure to dress. and she wisely refused 10
conform to any traditions. Beyond the
slight support of a narrow waist and MP
girdle, she wears no corSets and her SIM
ply cOiffed head. with its mass of dark halr
dressed at the nape of the neck still de1es
the curly wig-like fetes of the hour. This
almost religious neglect of corsets Is SAID
to be inspired by a fear for her beauty
which this lovely, If somewhat Indifferent
artist believes would have more wear and
tear with the stiff discomfort of stays.
Every great maker realizes her need in this
respect and from the plain tailor gown
which she wore in one play at the Gaiety,
to the many soft tea gowns which she al
fects always, everything hangs from the
shoulders. In fact, Madame Hading is said
TO have introduced the tea gown in Paris,
and. like Madame Bernhardt. she knows
the graceful allure of sleeves which are not
too big
The tailor gown worn by Madame Hading
at the Gaety has served as a model for
many women of Indifferent figures with
dIstaste for corsets. Comprising a plain
princess skirt and an almost skirt-length
redingote. half fitting, with slashed sleeves
and cavalier revers, this toilet. showed the
picturesque actress at her best. Big vel
vet buttons in a deeper red than the cloth
of the gown ornamented the sleeves and
front of the redingote. there set in simu-
lated buttonholes of white satin piping.
rich blouse of antique lace was worn with
this gown, every inch of which expressed
the graceful Hading looseness, full neck
and sleeve ruffies of the lace giving the look
of caressing luxury which she loves about
her throat and hands.
Many of Madame Hading's loose odd
coats and mantles also serve as valuable
suggestions to makers great and small, and
to her is ascribed the revival of the little
cavalier capes which some of the big houses
are putting forward for autumn and win
ter. In la Pompadour," Madame Had
ing's gowns are of the old board-like silks,

and looped garlands and miniature frames

Delightful Cachet to Everything.
Piquant, plump, tightly laced and delight

requirements of the tall, stately artist, Ma
dame Hading, and the jaunty seductiveness
of her charming toilets Is enormously cop

But, though squeezed eternally into corsets,
Rejane's figure is always supple and grace

only a charming young girl roundness. The
