Who are the
prettiest brides?

nUT Of all the thousands Of
lovely brides this year, who
are the fifteen loveliest? In June
that perplexing question will be
settled; for we shall publish our
Brides Number then, with the
photographs OF the fifteen chosen
ones.
June is good way off; but it's
not too early to invite candidates
for that Brides Number. Send
in now the picture of the love-
liest bride you know. Address
it to the Editor of the Brides
Number, and if you wish it re-
turned inclose stamps. For
every brides picture published
we will pay SO; and for the two
that the judges select for first
and second prizes we will pay
$l5 and $40 respectively. Wealth
and social position will carry no
weight with the judges. It's our
conviction that the percentage
of pretty girls in any thousand
OF population is just about the
same East or West, North or
South. We wonder if this
Brides Number will prove it?
If you have fifty friends
and they are just the ordinary

is one man or woman on whom

it is based on scientific investiga-
ton. We Americans are now
consuming more habit-forming
drugs than all European coun-
tries combined. There is hardly
a single little social group that
doesn't have its victim. You
should know about this danger,

In many respects the Baroness Rot

her ideals. Although welded to the
art of interpretative dancing, she has
found no justification for the popular
practice of appearing in public in a
state Of nudity which, though possibly
justified by the subject matter of the
dances, is more calculated to appeal to
those in search Of q thrill than to
those with an eye for art for arts sake.

concede that the rhythmic interpreta-

depends for its success upon something

than hindrance, and there is conse-
quently no reason why any classic

The Baroness Rottenthal is member
Of the Austrian nobility by birth, her

Won Rottenthal, now dead, but during
his lifetime a well known figure in
Austrian military circles and quite
close to the king of his allegiance. For
years she has occupied an enyiable po-

has been able to devote her life to the
realization Of an ideal, an artistic who

characterized by purity and simplicity.
Her costumes, which she designs and
often executes herself, are as surely
studies in art as are the rhythmic mo-
tons with which she interprets the
compositions of the great masters, but
yet they are made subservient, not
overshadowing, to the more important
art of dancing. The baroness, too, has
steadfastly refused to pander to the
popular demand as expressed in the
vogue Of the modern dances despite
the fact that her peculiar abilities
would have made it possible for her
to achieve distinction in this line OF
work.
AS her contributions to Midnight At
Maxim's.'' which has won her to the
world of the photo play, the baroness
has executed two Of her most popular
classic dances, the first entitled "Sea
Mist" and the second "Snow FURRY"
She appears as the stellar attraction In

acteristic New York city cabaret enter

services of carefully chosen beauties
from such nationally known Broad

and Maxim's.
