generous, and no woman ever had any real ground for complaining of him, but his wonderful analytical mind compels him to be constantly making psychological studies of new specimens of the other sex.
 There was quite little shock, however, when this man of genius, honored by the King, and the favorite comedy writer of fashionable society. began to devote his at tention to Gaby Deslys, the dancer and Parisian concierge's daughter, who, what ever her merits, had certainly not appealed to the most intellectual side of man.
 In order to enjoy the full benefit of Sir James Barrie's interest in her, Mile. Gaby terminated her partnership with her dancing partner, Harry Pilcer, with whom she had performed some of the most re- markable contortions ever seen\ on the stage. Perhaps the most artistic per formance given by the pair represented the murderous amours of Parisian Apache"
 Sir James Barrie set himself to write something refined for Mile .Gaby, but not too

much in "The Little Minister" vein With these ends in view, he produced remark able piece called Rosy Rapture the Pride of the Beauty Chorus." It was described on the programme as a burlesque in seven acts, and was produced at the Duke of York's Theatre, in London, under the late Charles Frohman's management.
 It was a very elaborate and spectacular production, consisting of a medley of skits on different types of stage plays. with a story of domestic triangular relations run ming through it.
 Gaby Deslys, of course played the title role. She was Rosy Rapture, and she looked it. She burlesqued tragedy and comedy, danced the fox-trot and sang duets with Jack Norworth. The programme com posed by Sir James Barrie described her in one scene as heading "a disdainfully melting chorus"
 Perhaps the most significant feature of the show was that Sir James Barrie bore the entire cost of producing 1t.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-07-25

The eminent author did everything in his power to make 1t success. For instance, a remarkable series of interviews with usual subtlety of English journalists, ap- peared in the London papers. Here is one of them:
 "'Alors!' said Mile. Gaby, when with ex- traordinary difficulty I had penetrated to her sanctum at the Duke of York's Theatre. 'Alors! will tell you just one thing about the new burlesque, but, listen, monsieur. 1t shall be just any one thing what you like the most to ask. Hullo. fire away
 "She was naturally exceedingly proud of her beautiful English.
 "What, asked myself. hurriedly, did most want to know; or, rather, perhaps, what did other people most want to know? I plunged.
 "'Thls is the question. mademoiselle. how do you and Sir James hit it off to- gether?'
 "'Say 1t moro plain,' she begged, and I said 1t moro plain. She looked at mo with large, plaintive eyes. He is strange author she said He not like me tt know what he means. When he look glad, then I know I doing 1t all wrong. but if he look triste then I know I doing it right
 "'But doesn't he explain to you how you should do things?
 "'Oh, no, monsieur; he just sit far of in stalls, and if we look at him he go away
 sDoaa ha 1ika yOur dressesY
 "I not know, monsieur. Figure to yourself. I catch hold of his coat, so that he no can go away, and I ask him, What you think about dresses for me, monsieur?" Then he think hard for long time, and he say, q think you should have a nice little white frock. mademoiselle, with fiounces on it."'
 "She flung up her hands and exclaimed to me, What is founces, monsieur?

 "'And then. my hair.' she continued,

death. Her friends explained rather in- dignantly that she would remain faithful to the memory of her dead hero.
 Perhaps Polly Chase was dissatisfied with this situation and began to think that her position as an heiress was not very secure. At any rate, she married quite suddenly and unexpectedly young English banker named Alexander Drummond, and now she is getting along very we'll without Barrie as father or in any other capacity.
 Meanwhile Sir James Barrie was fitting from flower to flower His friends explain that he is everything that is good, pure and

wistfully. T say to him, How I do my hair?" and he think hard, and he say. T think the best way would be brushed back smooth over the forehead, with nice little round bump at back"'
 "Mademoisele held out her hand to signify that the interview was ended. Think of me, monsieur. she said, tearfully, with a nice little round bump at backl'
 But was. she fearful? Was she not really laughing? Was she. in short. pulling my leg? I darted after her susp4ciously with another question, 'Mademoiselle, did the author tell you what to say to mel? But she had gone"
 It is suspected now that these curious interviews were written by Sir James Barrie himself and that he used his great influence to secure their publication.
 Rosy Rapture" had brief, inglorious run, and was not brilliant success financially. Probably it was too far out of the authors line to be so.
 In the meantime Harry Pilcer had been making great hit with Miss Teddie Gerard at the Alhambra Theatre in Lon don in a series of remarkable dances. Of these dances a distinguished critic said they completely outstripped Gaby. One of them was the Butterfly Dance," in which Miss Gerard displayed very fine pair of shoulders.
 The success of this exhibition must have excited Gaby, for she soon separats-- Harry Pilcer from Miss Teddie Gerard and was immediately seen dancing with him in a show called "5064 Gerard" The last word. by the way, is the name of promi- nent street in London and has nothing to do with Miss Gerard.
 In her new show, Gaby swishes around the most voluminbus cloud-like silk petti- coat and wears feathers in her hair that nearly touch the roof.

stage employment until she made a tremendous success in high=class con- edy, and especially in her adaptive fathers Peter Pan."
 It was Just after the divorce that Barrie was made a baronee by the King, a very high honor for a literary man. At the same time 1t was esti- mated that his plays had brought him in a fortune of about $2,000,000, and it was believed that pretty Polly Chase would inherit all or most of this.
 Then the theatrical world heard that Sir James Bar rie was seriously consid- ering changing the status of Polly Chase, for as . divorced man he was hardly qualified to act as her father. At the same time he was considerably perturbed by the charms of Maude Adams, who had not only m a de the success of his Little Minister" but had played the part of Peter Pan so perfectly in America that he was quite unable to de- eide whether she or Polly Chase was the better actress.

LONDON, July IT.

LONDON, July IT, " HERE Is probably not man in tho civilized world whose sentimental
 affairs are greater mystery and problem than that eminent playwright, Sir James Matthew Barrie, author of "Senti. mental Tommy" and other famous works. The character he drew in Sentimental Tommy is we'll known to be Barrie to a large extent, but Tommy extricated him. self from the amazing sentimental compli- cations in which he had become involved by dying young, whereas the author has carried similar process with ever-increas- ing complications to mature age
 The latest charmer who has aroused "SentimentaP' Barrie's interest Is Gaby Deslys, who once made a fortune by the mere suggestion that she had ruined King Manuel of Portugal. She is very different rom any of Barrie's earlier friends, but she resembles them in that. like all the rest she has grown tired of him.
 For the average reader 1t is necessary to recapitu1ate little of Barries senti- mental history. He was once married to handsome English actress named Mary Ansell, who soon found that she prelerred a young man named Gilbert Cannan. Barrie revealed himself to be extraordi- narily sentimental and generous at this time. Before the divorce he offered to for give his wife if she would be satisfied with him. She declined, and he was compelled to obtain the divorce.
 It was said that Mrs. Barrie had been somewhat disconcerted by her husbands course in adopting as a daughter the charming American actress Polly Chase, who first made reputation as "The Pink Pajama Girl" Under Barrie's tuition she had developed from this humble If alluring
