MISS MARJORIE DAVIDSON
c0MPlIMEMIED.

Miss Daisy Fitzhngh Ayres, well
kown society correspondent at Washing
ton, who writes for number of the
metropolitan press, including the Times
Picayune, paid the following very pretty
and very much deserved tribute to pop
ular st. Joseph lady. Miss Ayres says:
Miss Marjorie Davidson of st. Joseph,
La, is stunning Southern beauty who
is making her mark in Washington as a
lyric soprano soloist OF great effectiveness
and charm. She sang before the Con-
gressional Club the other day at bene-
fit for the Day Nursery, at a recital at the
home of the supreme social and artistic
arbiter, Mrs. Hemmick, at numbers of
other smart places, and scored all along
the line. There's a big professional flu
ture for the lovely Louisiana lass and the
admiring Washington public is heartily
wishing her Godspeed.
After spending the month of June at
her Southern home, Miss Davidson will
return East to New York to enter upon
summer engagements. The well known
impressario, Mr.. Dipple, OF Chicago, a
former member of the Metropolitan
Opera Company Of New York, has offered
the richly endowed young daughter of
Dixie, the position of understudy for the
leading lady Of his opera, princess Tea
La-La." She will probably enter upon
vaudeville work too before taking up the
more serious career for which her talent
and personality so graciously fit her.
At the recent Beaux Arts ball in Balti-
more, Miss Davidson was one of the most
stunning features of the smart affair, as
Cleopatra, in magnificent Egyptian cos
tune, reclining on a couch borne aloft on
the shoulders of four stalwart negro men,
six feet three inches in height, their
bronze and polished semi-nude bodies
classically draped. Miss Davidson sang
several expressive numbers. She appeared
some time ago in Mrs. Hemmick's beau
tiful spectacle, "The Opium Pipe"
Her work as vocal teacher for a while
in the College of Music at Vicksburg is
pleasantly remembered. For several sea-
sons Miss Davidson was a student at
Chevy Chase Seminary, the fashionable
girls school near Washington, where her
splendid voice received its first training
and praise, beautiful grey eyes and classic
contours. She is the daughter of Mr..
William NJ. Davidson, the well known
Louisiana planter. A brother of hers IL
one of the secretaries OF Senator Joseph
E. Ransdell. Miss Davidson was very
much admired at recent reception
given at the Willard by the Vice. Presi-
dent and his wife.

Peter Has a New Surprise.

Were you ever too surprised to feel
surprised? When one surprise follows
on top of a previous surprise, and an
other on top Of that, and so on. it is
sometimes hard to know how one does
feel. Peter Rabbits first surprise had
been the finding of the big pit dug by
Farmer Browns Boy in a far corner of
the garden. Then he had discovered
Old Mr. Toad at the bottom; so far as
Peter could see. a hopeless prisoner.
Then Old Mr.. Toad had disappeared, and
this was very great mystery and
most surprising thing. While he was
still puzzling over this Peter discovered
two holes in the smooth, straight sides
Of the pit, but no signs Of the one who
had made them. The next day there
were two more holes little higher up,
and still Peter was as much in the dark
as ever as to who had made them.
Some one had made them. That was
a fact that no one could deny. There
they were for any one to see, and on
the bottom OF the pit underneath each
been dug out Of the hole above. These
holes were quite as surprising and as
much a mystery as Old Mr.. Toad's dis
appearance. Peter had puzzled so much
oScT IAcUl lhdL he dCludlly iidue HIS
head ache. He thought he knew all
there was to know about his netghbors
"a very foolish thing for any one to
think-but try as he would he couldn't
think Of any one who could have made
those holes.
In the first place, he couldn't think
OF any one who would make those
holes just for the fun of it, and yet
every time he visited the pit he was
sure to find more holes. That made
it look as If several people had been
digging there. But the only ones he
could think of who would be likely to
make holes so near together were GER
tain members of the Swallow family.
who live in hpIes in the ground, and he
just knew that they couldn't have made
these holes, because it was So late in
the season and they were all through
nesting.

Still at the Same Tricks.

Unusual interest awaited the CaIlot
models this year. because it was ru-
mored that this house would narrow
and fatten the gowns until they
looked like the uniform of sandwich
man. But it must be admitted that
Bulloz has done this more than Callot.
The latter uses all the tricks of dra-
perry for which the house is famous
| over the civilized world
Ii there is any one who can put a
piece of lace over the shoulders and
ripple it down the skirt like Callot
| that person has not yet been found
by the buyers of clothes. Is it not
better, therefore, that one should dis
play at all moments the particular
thing that lifts one above the rest of
the herd?
1t is the same in dressmaking as it
is in acting: the world insists upon
seeing and paying for the mannersm
or technique which it expects from a
particular person. The Callot sisters
are shrewd business women and they
realize this fundamental weakness in
human nature and cater to it every
season by tinging lace over the figure.
This year the Callot gowns can be
easily divided into two significant
parts. Both of these parts bear Il
