Definite noun«« fWfit hue been made that Miss Helen Hull—she Is the Greek Goddess —Is to marry Alan Urquehart Patrick CumphHI, son of the celebrated Eng lish actress. Miss Hull occupies a position In the field of beauty which Is unique In thl3 day and generation. Dike all other cJtlerf. Chicago has the Gibson type, the Christy type, the athletic typo, the ' Ifesley type, the Vassar type, and the stmight-front type a-plenty. But to Miss Hull alone It Is given to rep resent fhe classic type of beauty handed down from tho glorious myths of Mount Olympus. Maxine Elliott and Lina Cavlllerl are beautiful, but no one ever seri ously compired them with Venus. I Mrs. Joseph E. Wldener, of Philadel- - phla. Is famous throughout the east for her charms of face and figure, hut she heara no resemblance to Psyche. Mrs. John 11. Murphy nnd Mrs. Hazel Mnrtyn Trudeau, of Chicago, are ad mitted to be among the hnnsomest women In American society, bu theirs Is the modern beauty. Miss Bult Is the only “Greek God dess." Bhe has a style nil her own And then, too. extraneous rlrcum stances may have had something to do with her general acceptance „ relncnrnutlon of the Grecian divinities rather than ns n superb type of the twentieth century. Bhe made her dehut about a year ago, when society was absorbed In charitable entertainment called the "Pageant Vlvant." { "The Greek Goddess.' One of the numbers on the program was a fanciful pantomime, showing the ceremony of pouring libations on the tomb of Agamemnon. Miss Hull led the procession of the libations bearers, with Mra. Herbert Stone. Her splendid auburn hair was hound up fn tho Greofun style and hor tall, graceful figure was clothed In the (lowing Grecian robes. On her left shoulder ahe carried nn antique stone Jug nnd the white folds of her garments fell hack from the left arm. The pose had been arranged toy an artist and It was a wonderfully effec- tlvo Introduction to the public, on# that could not easily be forgotten. Miss Bull wss far and away tho most stunnln* creature In the panto . mime, and from thnt moment Chicago j knew her aa "(he Greek Goddess." Tho title *waa further secured when ahe appeared at the second assembly hall. In the Congress hotel, last Jan uary. wearing a marvelous classic robe of chiffon, with solid fillets on her hair. Lovt at First 8lqht. ‘Miss Hull Ns a Farmington girl. Bhe Is several Inches above the aver- D i ng# height for women, has splendid shoulders and neck, nnd the brilliant coloring that goes with auburn hair. Her eyes are a deep blue and her dark brow* are finely penciled. Tho 1 eyelashes are long and black, and silky. Mr. Campbell, himself an Adonis, fell 4n love with her the moment he I saw her. He had come to Chlengo ns j an actor In hla mother's company. Mrs. Patrick Campbell has many I friends among the fashionable folk | of tho Windy City and It was at a dinner given by her that Alan Camp- I bell first saw "the Greek Goddess." Bhe seemed to be quite as cognisant i of his charms as hr was of hers. They monopolised each other during tho evening, but when he went away a few daya later, none of Miss Bull'* friends were aware of the fact that they had arranged to correspond. Meanwhile, rumor was engaging Miss 'Bull to this man and that—all of them highly "eligible," but non# nearly so Interesting ns the stalwart son of Mrs. Patrick Campbell. The gossip ha# now been aet at rest by "The Jersey Lily." As a girl In he** teens she was made celebrated as the subject of a painting by Sir Frederick Leighton, and the Prince of Wales, now King Edward VII., asked an In troduction and gave her the nick name. Bhe herself added fam# to the name by her career on the stage after wards In which she was launched by William T. Stead, the Journalist. Bhe owed much professional Advertising to the name which royalty had given her. The Duchess of Marlborough, who was Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt, la Ir reverently known In London as "Vandy," a contraction of her maiden name. The .duchess I" understood to pout, severely over this sobriquet. Miss Dorothy Tennant, on account of her spJrftuelJ* beauty, has been nicknamed # "Th« Soul."
