lO3, Says Bernhardt.

Sarah Bernhardt, who has been
hailed as n beauty since the days when
she made the very, very thin woman
popular. despite the fat ladies who
were then the fashionable type, looks
forward to l03 as tho apotheosis of
her life time.
IT was the divine Sarah who 6Tst
turned the hand forward on the time
clock Of beauty. and declared that a
woman was better looking at forty
than at twenty. But Judging from the
verdict of Paris today, tho period at
which a woman is most beautiful is
much earlier than forty. French art.
lets, at all events, prefer the lowell
ness of the young woman of twenty
five to the mature beauty Of forty.
"Woman's hour of beauty is be-
tween eighteen and twenty-five" SAYS
Albert Bartholome, the sculptor. 'fNo
expression of beauty touches me II
not illumined by the reflection of good
ness, and I believe that it will be
found in women easiest when they are
young, when they still retain their
illusions, and before this reflection is
abolished by, the evil Influences Of men
and things.
1t would be sad thing If this good
ness of which the sculptor speaks was

not reflected in the older face Of the
woman who has had some experience
in life, for Monsieur Bartholome, like
many others, seems to mistake com
plete ignorance for goodness.
He goes on TO say, however, that the
question is one Of terrible complexity
and concludes that. no matter what
her age, woman s hour of beauty is
in the daylight. which is so fatal to
uglness and only favorable to perfect
beauty.
Paul Helleu, the famous artist and
etcher, who is in New York painting
some Of our most beautiful American
women. gives the hour Of perfect
beauty as eighteen. "It is then that
femipinity reaches its perfection
says the master Of the dry point. But
he contradicts himself by making thc
portraits of some of his older sitter:
even more beautiful than the etching:
of young girls.
The sovereign beauties of New York
will agree with him, however, for the

teen or thereabouts, and New York

10 produce it. This is true Of
Maeterlmck F.The Blue Bird" the
fantasy, which is conceded to be one
Of the most expensive plays ever pro-
duced In America.
Maeterlinck is anything but practi-
cal In one of the scenes, for instance,
| he required that tombstones open and
become garden of flowers; and the
producers had TO make this spectacular
transformation. 1t cost three months
of constant experimentation and some
$50 900 before it was practicable. Three
different scenes were destroyed before
the producers Of the New theater con-
sidered that they had built one at
least adequate to the poet IS concep"
| ton.
Possibly the largest item in the cost
Of production is the lighting. There
arc many transformation effects in the
piece which depend largely on the ebb
and flow of 4 tremendous valume OF
light. With the production aPproXi-
mately 10000 incandescent lights arc
used, giving the scene the transparent
verted into candle power, this Is equal
TO the light Of nearly million candles.
Fourteen electricians are required on
the stage TO manipulate tho swithes,
| lamps, etc,
Indeed, half as many people arc TO-
ouired TO Ework' the show as are
needed to act it. In the production
there are 160 people, and fifty-fIyc of
them are never seen from the front.
Eleven scenes in all are reproduced,
and so elaborate and massive are they
that eighty-scven drop pieces are hung
from the gridirons, Once these scenes
are lowered, fourteen men are needed
to adjust them and to put the movable
Dieces Of scenery into place; besides
these, another group of eighteen men
arc used 10 set in place the properties
and to operate them when necessary
during The transformations. There is,
for instance, tho water tap, out OF
which water flows and is transformed
into shimmeriug, sylph-like creatures
there is the bread pan, out of which

the lar of milk. which falls from the
table. breaks and reveals a beautiful
timid girl personifying Milk AL
these effects demand unceasing atten
fion behind the scenes TO keep them
mysterious and fantastic. Therein lies
the tremendous cost of this production
over others somewhat similar IN doslgu
and conception.
