Will Shock Smart Set" Declares Mrs. Anthony Woman of
Magic and Millions, She Leaves Home for Chicago
Refuses to Make Known Sensation.

MUNCIE, Ind. Jan. 2o.-Mrs.
Charles H. Anthony, the Muncie
woman of magic and millions she
who put the diamonds in heels-has
gone to Chicago again with another
dazzling. sparkling, scintillating sur
prise to make the smart society gasp,
hesitate, then rush to follow.
What is it?
Nobody knows just now, though
the whole world is likely to be APP
prised soon through the newspapers,
which accorded Mrs. Anthony whole
ago when she went a-clicking down
Peacock alley with those diamond
heels. 1t was a great sensation, but
when Mrs. Anthony left here not long
ago she whispered to her most in
innate friends that she was going to
shock smart society this time even
more than she did before.
Which will be going some.
The world in general knows Mrs.
Anthony only as "the lady with the
diamond heels 1t thinks of her as
a woman of wealth who dearly loves
to do sensational things-things that
make people talk about her. She may
be cultured and refined and all that,
but the world doesn't know it. The
world, therefore, should be interest
ed in the remarks of a woman who
knows Mrs. Anthony intimately
She is beautiful, refined, studious,
broad-minded and unselfish." said
this friend "She is far too modest
and good humored to refute the fool
ish criticisms made of her last year.
Her friends know, however. that she
is woman in a thousands veri-
table Lady Bountiful.' 1t is true she
loves beauty, but personal adornment
comes last with her. not first, as
seems to be thought in the East.
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1913-01-20

''The home life of Mrs. Anthony is
IDEAL. She was born an heiress and
married a capitalist, but. despite her
wealth, she takes an actual part in
the keeping of her house. She is an
ideal mother. Her only son, who is
her dearest chum, is at Harvard TAX
ing scientific course.
Gardening is one of her passions.
When the town of Muncie offered
prize for the best cared for garden
she worked with her own hands in
her yard and flower beds and cap
tured the award.
"She is a better housemaid than
her best-trained servant She is
better cook than her chef. Her
kitchen is a model of progression.
But the most delightful spot in her
home is the attic den-as full of sur
prises as a magician's hat.
'As a hostess she is perfect. She
tells a good story, but is far more
ready to listen to others wit. Young
people come to her for every sort of
advice, from how to trim a ball frock
to how to manage an affair of the
heart. She admires all who labor in
the world. and has helped many to
help themselves"
So, you see, life is something more
than diamond heels to Mrs. An
thony, after all. Her love of diamonds
is explained by the fact that she was
born in April, dedicated to the peer
less sparkler. She considers the dia-
mond the only stone that is ''alive,"
and will have no colored jewels in her
possession.
The surprise which she is shortly
to spring on society will be diamond
one. Her jeweler is just putting the
finishing touches on it. And it won't
be diamond heels.
What will it be?
Guess!
