These productions stamp him as tlu host librettist since Gilbert, but my lady of the footlights cares; nothing about that. The thing that gives Mr. Hall his claim on her is the fact that he wrote "Florodora'’ and evolved a new style of chorus girl. Prior to "Klodora" the chorus girl wore the same kind of fleshings ilia: had been the vogue since the days when the "Black Crook ' first shocked the country No one had ever had the ori ginality to suggest a change. It had gone out of the fashion to fall captive to this creature of pads and paint. Only a few insipid Johnnies clung to | the stage door in admiration of this ven erable type. But suddenly a metamorphosis was ef feeted. The show girl was lifted to a pedestal j such as she had never occupied before. Diamonds, automobiles, flowers. Wall j street winnings and millionaire husbands j were tirofferr, d to tier. The Klodora fever had done its work, j •lid the new chorus girl was launched ; sin her glittering career. What Mr. Hall did was simple, enough, perhaps, but it remained for him j in he the one to think of it. CLOTHES NOT A DRAWEACK TO THE CHORUS. First lie decided that beauty unadorned was not necessarily beauty most adorn- ] ed. so he began by giving the chorus girl] some clothes. In place of the tights of j tradition she was equipped with a su-, peril Paris gown and hat that the. wealthiest woman in the world need not have ibeen ashamed to wear.

Nc <1 melodious tlu' annals of the stage has such an enthusiasm been recorded for : any one number in an opera. it was nothing unusual to hear the sextette re pealed a dozen times, and the six stun ning girls who composed the feminine half of the number, leaped into a pop ularity that made t h< m the envied of t heaterdom. It is a frequent mistake *o say that Nan Patterson and Kvelyn Ncsbit Tiiaw were members of tha: famous “Original'' sextette, but they were not Nan Patter-! son did sing in the sextette, but only in « a Number Three company.

Evelyn Nesbit Tl^i vv was in t!ic open- ! lng New York production of liie opera.' but she never attained io the dignity of j being in the sextette that made the sue-j cess of the work. Nature had never 1 adapted her for such a role. She lacked j the height and distinction. The best she ! got was the small role of a flower, maiden, who d,jpic»d in the background j and scattered llowers. Since the fame of “Klodora” wont j round the country, it has become a fash-i ion to ciass every girl who figures in a i lights sensational incident as one of the original man*!

Her good nature was pro verbial. *• You’re jest Bizbeth’s tool. Amanda Ann.” Cousir, Millie Mathews had been telling her at least twenty years. “You make yo in self sugar f<*r (lies to cat. You better had come and make me a visit. I’ll perk you up so folks wouldn’t know you fer the same wom an. You wouldn't be half bad lookin’ ef you’d sprig yourself up a bit.” But Amanda Ann had reckoned that as ’Ldzbeth know nothing about mend ing. the Bord must have sent her there to do the mending for her; and no one but agreed that ’Bizbeth would suffer a great loss if deprived of her sister’s services. It was decidedly a shock when Aman da Ann descended upon her sister on , the evening that she had given her self up tf. reflection, with the informa tion that she had decided to accept one I of Cousin Mollie s many invitations to | fended him by her too great fondness for other men’s society Mr. Tx>vet was the, father of five beautiful children.

Vaughn Texsmith was an English show girl, who is still se r n occasionally in big productions. The others have tem porarily droned out of sight. So it happens that the. original six who took part in the monumental suc cess emerged from the excitement free of scandal.

It is an unfortunate habit of Ameri cans to sneer at the quality of British humor, but the careers of Messrs. Gil bert and Hall force something of a halt on this attitude. .American playwrights would be bard put to show such a gallery of humorous portraits as Gilbert created, or such a sustained power of lively dialogue as Mr. Hall exhibited. Even without the music or the sextette at all. “Florodora” would have been a delightful entertainment, with its abundance of cleverness arm comedy. But long after Mr. Hall and his dia logue is forgott-n the “Florodora” sex tette will be remembered. and long af ter each of the estimable six ladies has reached the ago of tottering senility, reporters will be recording incidents hap pening to members of the endless ori ginal sextette. leaves from and old SCRAP BOOK.

Tlie only questions are. What alloy and how much? I shall try to answer the question as to kind and leave to individual discre tion tlie question as to quantity. A great actor once said that all men have vanity, but some conceal it more successfully than others. If vanity he :t universal trait, we may take it as that alloy which is necessary to our active and circulating usefulness. it is decried by all moralists, preached against in all pulpits and everywhere believed to be as undesirable as it is universal.
