life, in the three cities.
She and her sister, Elinor Glyn,
who wrote "Three Weeks" and some
things very much better-to put it
mildly-are engaged in raising a
certain sum for charitable use in one
of the destroyed villages of France.
Elinor Glyn wrote a playlet, and

A French girl dreams, and, like all

Duff Gordon appears on the stage,
makes q speech, and brings on a
collection Of beautiful young women,
dressed up in beautiful young dress

imaginary dream.
In this parade of dresses on the
stage you see everything from that
which is put on when a fashion
