Paris May Soon Set Mems Fashions

objection is that the theater cloak rooms
are apt to fold them out of shape-but
they certainly make a good figure Of a
man.
Englishmen and Americans have in the
past objected to the French cut Of mems
clothes even more than they have to the
fancy colors. Tailors say the English
cut to the measure Of the mans body,
which was Beau Brummel's rule. Ameri-
cans often say that English tailors do
not fit a mans body close enough. The
English retort that Americans try to i'm
prove a mans real shape by playing up
the waist when his hips are too broad, or
padding deficient shoulders. Both object
to French tailors in that they begin by
cutting the material to fit loose and then
trimming down at successive try ons.
For the outsider who only looks at the
finished result when the man is dressed
in his new colthes the present difference
seems to be this. The French give man
long waist sloping out below, even In
a sack coat. In the cutaway and evening
suits they study graceful, falling lines
and outlines much as they do in ladies'
dresses. English tailors do not seem to
have the eye for that and, no doubt, con.

a fool, but deaf fool.
It is a fault to drop the voice now and
again. but 1t is worse fault to bawl for
two and a half hours increasingly.
When actor-managers produce plays
1t is that the play should go; the thrill
ing scenes thrill; the comedy lines call
forth laughter: and the tender scenes
tears-and they themselves make per-
sonal success.
But the real "art of acting" is not con-
sidered.
This art has nothing to do with imper-
sonation-beyond the means by which
the artist impersonates.
It has nothing to do with youth-un-
less the feeling Of youth is to be sug-
gcsted.
1t has nothing to do with any real
thing-only with the technical means,
apart from inspiration, by which the
real thing is given to the Imagination of
the audience.
There is certain artistic hysteria on
the stage, that is exasperating-a stare
in the artists eye as he waits at the
wings, a stiffening OF his muscles and a
throatiness ready in his voice. oh, that

become natural and begin over again

TOR the first time since the wars
r. with Napoleon European men are
taking their dress fashions from
Paris just as their women always have
done. London clothes will still be popu-

attention to the clothes fashioned in gay
Paree. Royalties are setting the example
and It is possible Americans will eventu-
ally follow suit.
The temperance Of the frock coax at
the marriage Of Princess Mary was said
to be 'of1cial," but when the lucky bride
