had to be abandoned. But their
majesties cheered up toward the
end of the day OF mid-Lsnt revei.
ing. and It was . o'clock IN the
morning before the beauties left
the ball which had been crranscd
In their honor.
TT was a case of . fight between
revelry and the biting wind.
and revelry won. Parisiana wsrs
not to be done out Of tncir aid
Lent merry.making even by a cold
nor'easter.
In the bitter weather girls pcur.
cd into the boulevards cad moe tly
in male attire Of flimsy cotton and
satinette. Goodness knoUe how
they escaped mortal chills. the
fact that the fun was fast and 0lF.
ious probably saved them.
Some idea Of tho spirit Of the
night may be gathered ficm me
fact that at 8 in the morning the
confetti on the boulevards Isadened
the football like a heavy Gall OF
snow. and here and there a shred
of feminine clothing Lay on the
multi-colored carpet.
THERE is no truth to the ru.
NOR that Pearl White intends
TO leave the cinema for the musio-
hall stage.
Her coming appearance at the
Casino de Paris 10 simply by way
Of change. The beautiful favor.
ite Of the film. like many others Of
her profession. finds 1t beneficial
to come into personal touch with
the public, and Pearl, after her ap-
pearance at the Casino. will re-
turn to America with fresh inspira-
ton tor her work In the film stu
dos.
All question of her retiring from
her accustomed sphere is settled by
the fact that she has Just signed a
three-year's contract with a cinema
firm.
THE famous danseuse who left
home, comfort, friends, and all
that makes life worth living. to
teach the Bolsheviks how to dance
is coming back to civilization once
again.
Nine. Isadore Duncan IL turning
her back on Moscow and return
ing to Paris.
What measure Of success has At
tended her efforts with the boishies
is still wrapped in as much mys-
terry as the origin Of her strange
mission itself.
However. a friend OF hers tells
me that Nine. Duncan has written
to say that she is returning. You
will find me changed, for I nm
much thinner" IL q significant
phrase in the letter. Paris Ii look
ing forward to hearing her ac-

land OF the Soviets.
JACK DEMPSEY. hear. 10
likely to appear on tho stage
of a well-known Paris music hall
before long: that 10. IL the boxer
and the music hall can agree on
the matter Of terms.
The boxing champion OF the
world had asked for $500 a week.
He knocked off $500 when the
management declared itself unable
TO pay such a sum. but the music
hall still maintains that even At
such a price, Dempsey would not
be a paying proposition.
The man who beat Carpenter,
however, is keen on making
closer Acquaintance with tho peo-
Pile who provided him with so game
an opponent, and 1t Is more than
likely that Jack will suit his price
to French pockets.
THE beauty spot I see. is COM
ing into favor again. and at
quite a number OF society func-
tions lately many beautiful women
have added the little dot of black

1t is considered most effective.
One woman. who had placed the
spot just above her left eye, de-
clared to a male friend that she
thought 1t quite time she began to
dot her Is"
One reason assigned for the re-
appearance Of the beauty spot 10
that women today are moro than
