 By intelligent dieting she reduced ner weight by o0 pounds in one year. Her eYes are bright blue. The Garden speak ing voice is rather high; her manner animated. She has wonderful English accent which we are all trying unsuc- cessfuily to initiate. Her manner is straightforward even blunt at times, though she is a match for any diplomat.
 The value of Mary collection of furs exceeds $l50,000. In the evening she wears a sumptuous chinchiIla wrap reaching to her feet A coat of ernlne bordered with sable is new possession.
 She never wears a pair of gloves more than once. Her luncheon. when she lunches at all, consists of an apple and some dried figs With her tailored suits she weaTs in her buttonhole a crimson camell4a. Two strings or pearls around her neck, she says, are the largest specI- mems in the world.
 She promises to write her memoirs. Furthermore, she says her story will contain no> equivocations. She always speaks the truth. Chicago is the prina donna's favorite city in America. Phila- deiphia amuses her. New York appalls her. She talks "baby talk to her dog. She laughs at the "Teutonic hips" of an American singer in opera. A new race of charming people she says she has discovered. The Cinemese" she calls them. She has always refused to sing in Berlin because she hates Germans She has excellent taste in other things as well.
