But he will do nothing; neither he nor any other rich million aire who lives in this country. They do a great many things, but not splen did humanitarian things; not grand actions of this sort.” The lack of taste displayed by some of our women called forth the follow ing remarks: ‘‘Really, I am sometimes amazed at the w’ant of tact exhibited by some American women. “At the opening of the Los An geles opera, the public came in crowds to hear for the first time the delight ful and great artist, Mary Garden. “The women had arrayed them selves in their most beautiful gowns and literally covered themselves with jewels. So far there^ was no harm, for all society women all over the world, whether European. American or savage, love to appear In public with the best they have in gowns, jewels and feathers. “One of the ladies, when getting cut of her carriage, pulled up her dress very high to allow admiration to expend Itself—not on her leg, but her stockings, upon which diamonds and pearls were embroidered. ‘1 really considered this most doubtful taste and vulgar. But it was still worse than that. The lady stopr ped, gathered her dress up carefully and held It with two fingers and re mained so, posing before the photog raphers in profile, then full face and always with the toe advanced and the limb uncovered. “I cast my eyes around to find her husband. I do not know if it was he who quietly stood behind her until the operation was finished, but I said to myself. France, in Paris, that woman would have been hooted and Jeered by the crowd witnessing the scene, and next day her husband would have had two or three duels on his hands for permitting it. “Now, although Paris women are considered in America to have little prudery and to be barefaced, I de clare that no society woman would ever have done such a thing as this. “But perhaps this woman was not a society lady, but only a millionair ess!” romance attached to it which in no way resembles the petty thefts of some other countries. “I have a great admiration for this American honesty.

I can not un derstand how any one could permit such insanities to take place in their drawing rooms, yet not only do they permit them, but young girls of re spectable families assemble together to learn those dances. “The mothers are at fault. They should never permit such exhiDttions. And why do they do it? They keep a young girl away from immoral sur roundings. choose her books, hide from her newspapers reporting ques tionable divorces or passionate crimes. "They keep a watch on her friend ships, they do everything in the world to keep her mind from being sullied, yet they let her, not only see. but actually take part in, a spectacle which is. more than any other, stripped bare of all modesty and de cency. “I have heard particular people se verely condemn the waltz when I was a girl. What would they say to-day?” What Rockefeller, Jr., Might Do. Of Rockefeller she said: “Monsieur Rockefeller, Jr., thinks that even if one does try to protect poor girls there are many who would still become of questionable character through idleness. "I do not agree with Monsieur Rockefeller, Jr. I really think that unhappiness and poverty drive many wretched girls to vice. But I am persuaded that, if means to earn a livelihood were procured for poor girls, all of them would joyfully ac cept work. "And yet. one can not complain in For Miss Callaway.
