The modern woman has been de-

Women are rude in public convey

impoliteness to women with whom
they are not acquainted. If We quietly

his reply was we'll worth writing out.
American men" said he. like beau
tiful young women better than old
articles. Partisan actresses are ma
tional celebrities. A woman must be
past 40 to be able to play the amorous
heroine with effect on the stage. We
like to see the faces that We have al
ways seen. In New York it is not so.
Well. after all. the American cannot
be blamed for preferring freshness in
a woman. Even the green fruit does
not meet with his disapproval. He
likes girls to be tall and slender. al
most lean, of the Gibson type. Neither
her bust nor her hips need be develop
ed; her legs should be long, and with
out fat. 1t is kind of approximation
to the hermaphroditic type dreamed of
in ancient times. 1t is the slender
woman with misplaced development
at whom our theater-goers in Paris
crane their necks. No. the forms are
rounded and heightened at the same
time, and the curves stop just where
they become tell-tale, thus leaving the
sex uncertain. On these bodies. how
ever. which does not know what to
think of. are perched exquisite female
heads; the necks are slender, the faces
oval, the features delicate. and the
large liquid eyes, tender or lively, sad
or sentimental. seem to solicit SYM

of virgins who have been foolish only
when forgetting themselves and who
are sorry to be obliged, alas, to go on
shining! Well, they have to dance and

throwing trouble into the hearts of the
male spectators
1t seemed to me that my new French
acquaintance was getting dangerously
literal; SO switched him OF to
consideration of the play We were
seeing-a very snowy musical farce.
The temperature of New York Is
cooler than that of Paris" he went on,
mo matter II the latitude is about the
same. Your men consume with I'M
punity alcohols and spices that would
set us on fire. So in the theater. to
bring them to that degree of beautitude
which every impresario DESTROYS of
making money should provide for his
audience, they need spectacles that q
French public. whose blood runs easily
to its head, would not be able to stand.
The dose has to be increased for New
Workers; the women are younger,
prettier, less dressed. especially be-
low, and infinitely more expert in the
art Of f1uttering, which is so neces-
sary. Yet It is our theater that is
looked upon as more immoral than
yours. The reason is plain. For you
immortality exists only In words.
Therefore in English plays very little
is spoken. but there is much dancing.
That is why the theater is more in
decorous in New York than in Paris.
What piquant contrasts? 1t must be
acknowledged that society that ia
booes the use of the word legs in con-
versation, and that every evening sat
isles its prediction for rows of stage
legs. Is somewhat inconsistent"
DO YOU really and truly mean to
say" I interrupted, that New York is
as naughty as Paris?"
You Americans" he replied, "pay
much external homage to virtue. Your
ways are not ours. In the relation of
the sexes great modesty is apparent.
The class of great demi-mondaines,
that is the joy and pride of Paris. does
not exist here. or. If it does exist, 1t is
in the shade and wakes up only by
candlelight. so to speak. And, by the
by. I am surprised that your journals
do not give these women place
worthy of them, since they contribute
so much to the refinement of our civil
izatiOn. Your men are as bad as we
are, but hide their badness more. They
are SO imbued with Christianity that
they still believe in sin. The great
orb Of day frightens them, so they
wait till the gas and electric lights
are ablaze in music halls, cafes and
restaurants"
