asked the girl to take off the turquoise necklace and hand
it to her mother. All this took less than minute.
The mother turned to dts wonderful" she
claimed. @My daughter does look very much more
beautiful now. How did you accomplish it in such
explained what had learned in the course of many
years practical experience with stage gowns and lights
that blond woman always looked best in an amber
light, where and white mixture of lights would
better suit dark woman; that side light always
more effective any woman than light thrown full in
the face; and that the effect of gray gown would be
ruined by turquoses any other coored stones
only emeralds or sapphires.
What Lights Do
THESE only few of the thousands of secrets and
problem solutions of stage dress and stage lights.
If not of the stage knew these secrets they could
not fail to profit by the both by avoiding mistakes in
the way of imitation and by adapting their own ndi
vdual the results of study applied the clothes
and light problem by women of the stage.
Such actresses for example, Miss Henrietta Cros
man, Miss Kitty Gordon and Mrs. Leslie Carter
blends with reddish hairalways the footlights
and other stage lights to be of amber shade. This
light heightens their beauty.
Such brunette actresses Miss Maxine Elliott IS
Jane Cow and Miss Julie Opp use mixture of and
white lights Actresses past their prime such Rejane
and Bernhardt, always have all lights the stage of
soft color which is further deadened by having
gauze wound around the bulbs. A blue light green
light would in circumstances be tolerated. A blue
light brings out the lines in womans face and where
rouge used gives the rouge purple shade. green
light throws shadows into the complexion and reveals
lines that actually may not be there.
Color Problem of Clothes
PUT, important lights are in the general beauty
- scheme, the problem of clothes is the main one.
The Spenceran theory of the influence of colors
moods may be applied after fashion, in the way have
Indicated to the problem of looks. The psychology of
color is certain science in the of Clothes where be-
coingness and resultant harmony and beauty the
ends sought.
To be concrete small, dainty woman-such, for ex-
ample, Miss Mabel Taliaferro- should never wear
puppies or browns. She should always affect such pastel
shades pale blue, lavender combination of black

gowns makes herself appear slender. Bernhardt SINH
ary induces appearance OF slenderness Miss Surrat
takes model gown and literally adapts it to her
figure, much as she would adapt song part to
her personality. Mrs Campbell hides her stouness by
draping herself with Clothes instead of fitting" herself
into them This makes her appear tall. She
short skirt of any kind even in the street.
Such actresses as Miss Julia Dean, Miss Maxine FL
lott, and Miss Ethel Barrymore look much better in
the street than on the stage. Odd, but true Why?
Because the minute of these actresses heghten any
of their effects, such those of complexion figure
they take what makes them beautiful IN an extra
ordinary way Miss Elliott looks best in tailor made
gowns; yet her stage parts give her opportunity to
appear such attire. The youth of Ethel Barrymore is
lost back of the footlights Her roles compel her to
dresses trimmed with lace which brings out the
worst lines of her figure Miss Barrymore the type OF
woman who looks when in 3fussy" dress effects
In plays like cousin Kate where she was able to dress
Simply, she looked vastly more beautiful.
This holds true of any woman OF the Inquire and gen.
era appearance of this actress. Miss Julia Marlowe
looks best in classic robes Modern dress shows up her
bad points 1t was the same with Emma Eames, who
always dressed by her artist husband Julian Story
who selected and designed her gowns with eye to the
and juliet" and as the Wagnean herones, she looked
beautiful Modern dress, however, caused her to look
otherwise. THIS is the secret why Emma Eames would
never appear at Sunday night concerts. Without the
Story daperes and in modern dress her long and
long waist would have been salently apparent.
Effect of Overdressing
MISS GERALDINE FARRAR is a much better
A'A looking woman than her audiences would guess,
and she herself is blame for their impression. She
overdresses and spos the natural effect of her youth.
This is at apparent in "Travata, where the mania
for lace crystals has got the better of Miss Farrar
and has succeeded in spelling her intrnsicay beautiful
freshness and charm. Many woman-on and off the
stage-rns the effect of her beauty by overdressing,
by using lace and spanges where strict simplicity should
be adhered to. And in Miss Farrar they may
crete example of the harmful effect of this sort of thing
In @Boheme" and Butterfly where she wears COM
paratvely plain clothes, she is entirely attractive; so
too she in the of the court costume in Manon;
but would suspect her entire charm when she
dresses herself in @Travata."
Half of Madam Nazimovas versatility lies in her

look entirely out OF proportion
and could never obtain the de-
sired effect.
A woman with a short neck
should never wear thick furs;
but instead should wear a stole
over her shoulders. Madam
Sembrich gains her best effect
by wearing her furs about her
shoulders. She never appears
in public with furs about her
throat.

Dress individuality

SOME of the further prob
~ lens and secrets of stage
dress may be explained through
the cases of Miss Mary Garden,
Miss Valeska Surratt, and
Mrs. Patrick Campbell. These
actresses are so called @freak"
dressers; but vastly effective
ones none the less. They take
from the fashions what suits
them best and work out of the
combination a gown of the
moment. They never take
gowns as they find them. They
know their own good points,
and dress up to those good
points. Miss Garden, who,
like most singers, is thick
through the diaphragm, lowers
her waist line into a point
and, by the use of belts on her

should enter and find IN her
what she believed was an
entirely attractive and cap
tivating picture.
You have undoubtedly
seen the same thing your
self,-the young girl posing
herself for the benefit of the
young man coming to see
her. Noticing that my eyes
were fastened on the young
woman, her mother said to
me:
@Isn't she beautiful as
she sits there?"
"She is, indeed" 1 replied
calamity; @but not half SO
beautiful as she might be
with a simple twist of the
wrist"
Poorly cOnceal1ng the
shock she had received, the
girls mother asked me
what l meant.
"Come," l said, @and III
show you"
We entered the room.
After a word to the daugh-
ter, l switched off the rose

turned on the lamp with

Importance of Lines

A SMALL actress must clothes with long
lines and never long train. This would throw
her out of proportion, would dwarf her. There should
be waist line in her clothes Nor should such small
women wear high, trimmed hats. The latter,
most stage realize will make the line from the
top of the hat to the shoulder long the line from the
shoulder to the waist line And this will make the rest
of the body carry twice much it ought in the way
of lines.
Miss Marie Tempest the best gowned woman on the
English speaking stage is always careful that her hats

Stubs Cases Fail

AS usual, the final disposition of
the liquor prosecutions in Chero-
kee county, has been very quietly
made by the present republican
administration. A few months
ago. Stubbs threatened to turn the
entire state up side down, when
the attorney general hesitated
about prosecuting t b alleged
booze joints in Cherokee county,
The newspapers took that dope for
the real thing and Stubbs got
away with his play in front of
the grandstand. Special assist.
ants from the Office of the attor-
ney general filed the cases and
drew the easy money from the
state. Then the cases we're all
dismissed and the tax payers of
Kansas are holding the sack for
another of Stubbs' famous spot
light acts. Yet, some have even
been so incautious as to ask why
taxes have increased 100 percent
in the Stubbs administration.

The outcome of the present cam
paign for the election of q Member
of Congress from this district,
will be anxiously watched by
every state in the union. While
the evidence may not be conclu-
siVe, yet it will certainly indicate
gain in the strength of democ-
racy in the middle west, and the
turning of a big republican dis
trict into democratic one. This
is indeed rare opportunity for
the democrats of the Seventh Dis
trict to deliver this district to the
party. The republican nominee,
known for years as a S andDatter
by reputation and association, be-
gan to court the insurgents as
soon as he was nominated. In this
campaign he is endeavoring to
carry water on both shoulders,
and it is pretty certain some of it
will be spilled before election.
There is only one chance for the
Democrats to lose this election
and that is by staying away from
the polls on January 8, This is
indeed an excellent chance for an
easy victory and every Democrat
in the district should make up his
mind to vote-and then do it.
