Mile Gaby DeSlys, the most amous
OF all European stars who have ever
visited America, Is a misunderstood
woman. This she says herself. The
impression exists among some peo-
pie that she Is of the world worldly.
1T is all a mistake, a sud error. She
lives very simply; never touches in
t~oXicatinE drinks. II adheres to a
strict regime. She is in bed every
night before IL and if she eats after
the performance, the meal consists of

the stage I affect exotic gowns be-
cause the public wants to see me
dressed in this amer. but when l
am home. and that heal in. my hotel
or my private car, I dress simply and
1 live simple things. My jewellery,
too. Is for the theater. and that is. for
the public, but when ! am away from
the footlights my jewels are left in
the care of some of MY people.

crowded the entrance merely to see
me at the table. and they seemed so
astonished when the waiter brought
me a large glass of milk. The idea Of
