A RECENT article described the SYSTEM at one
OF the most interesting theaters of New York, by
which the director the stage manager the decorator
the designer of costumes the scenic architect and the
painter prepared in detail the production of Shakes
pearean play by the aid of little dolls finally putting the
work perfected by maronettes into the hands Of the
actors That article suggested that perhaps the Ameri
public might be interested to read how have seen

how such play is produced at the world famous
national Theatre Francais and the "Odeon in Paris

actor who is to interpret the foremost character of all

the actress playing the chief womans part guides the
production as for instance did MounetSully in Par

all his money for clothes, who is
seeking merely to crafty personal
vanity and hasn't much else in his
equipment, is a particularly foolish
idiot.
The advertising rule is a fairly
safe guide. The intelligent adver-
tiser knows the best advertising is
that which tells, in the most at
tractive form, the truth about the
goods advertised, awakening con-
seriousness of a desire and then of a
demand for them.
The best advertising campaign
ever carried out must fail in the end
as business proposition, unless the
concern delivers the goods.
Clothes advertising, to be effect
i've, must be backed by accomplish
ment. This is as true of the man
who wears the clothes as of the firm
that makes them, and there isn't
any escape from it. The individual
or the business concern that puts
all its thought, energy, and profits
into advertising, to the neglect of
the plant and the output, is sure to
fail.

Wear as Good as You Can Afford


Wear as Good as You Can Afford
FOR purely business reasons. if for
no other, most men should wear
clothes as good as they can afford, and
possibly little better than they think
they can afford. For one thing, it
means little intelligent inquiry into
their expenditures. Most of us throw
away an absurdly large percentage of
Our incomes on things that have no
earthly value, either for present en-
Joyment or future use, and the money
spent on these is pure waste. It would
be much better spent upon clothes;
but only up to the point where man
is really we'll dressed.
1t is certain that foolish Youths with
peacock brains will see in this article
only irstihcation for the exploitation
of their extravagant vanity. Any man
who makes clothes the end of his life
and is willing to sacrifice everything
to make himself look as much like a
circus as possible, isn't worth bother
ing about.
After all, clothes are mere con-
veniences. 1t is more important
for man to have his thoughts we'll
dressed than to have his body we'll
dressed, to be clean inside as well as
outside.
A man who respects his clothes and
makes his clothes respect him is pretty
sure to command respect from the

isn't the most serious factor.
We can't help associating
good clothes with prosperity,

may take a lot of energy to
overcome the handicap, ener-

expended in getting ahead.
You remember that in Eng
land the serfs used to wear an
iron collar about their necks.
If the badge of slavery was re-
moved, the serf was recog-
nized as free man, and meas

standard. The badly dressed
man looking for a job or for a
better one is likely to be re-
garded as an economic slave.

Good clothes inspire degree of confidence and

Under Watchful Eyes
A T the Francais and the Odeon when a new play or
great production is to be given, little house with
floor roof and three walls is built out over the orches
ira stalls in the theater facing the stage. In it table
sit the author the directors of the theater and any
other persons needing to get perspective of the
hearsng and other work of production it goes on.
The stage manager sits there and carefully down
on copy of the play the movements and positions
worked out on the stage by actors and author, and
many other details affecting the that develop in
of the composition of the stage representation.
From that little house also studied the groupings
the light effects ETC. From there the actors watched
and receive suggestions, critical otherwise, from
author actors other persons interested in the pro-
duction. That point of vantage also is useful to the
stage manager in his drilling of the crowds and all his
executive work in connection with the production.
That little house disappears for the last few rehear

At the national French theater it is sometimes seen

BY MYRTLE JENNINGS,

1T has become quite fad among
women throughout Paris and other
fashionable European cities to indulge
in smoking Indeed a young man in
France would think it very strange if,
when he called upon his lady fair she
did not sit and smoke several dainty
cigarettes with him One woman told
nj young man who would send orchids
and several boxes Of cigarettes, but
would never think Of sending box Of
candy.
However, great was the surprise when
the fact was revealed that select few
Of Zion s fair daughters had adopted
the subtle art And the young ladies do
not smoke the ordinary sort of
cigarette, but tiny little gold-tipped af-
fairs, made expressly for "my lnyde
fairc. -
Now there arc several different kinds
of feminine slaves 10 the habit, First,
there is the young society girl, who has
returned from abroad or graduated from
fashionable boarding school, who
smokes because she thinks it perhaps
