Well, there were no sport
clothes at the opera matinee, aft
er all! The nearest approach to
sport clothes that 1 saw was a
very beautiful and becoming suit
of the new silk called “Khaki
Kool,” worn by Mrs. Hughes
Spalding. And rpeally the only
gport tendency in that was the
sunilarity of material to that used
in the so-called sport styles. As
a matter of fact, Mrs, Spalding's
costume was quite a "dress-up”
kind of suit and was much ad
mired by the matinee crowd.
in fact, everyone wore charm
ing afternoon costumes and I was
delighted to note the fact that the
matine goers deemed it worth the
trouble to look thelir best in silks
and chiffons for the lovely old
opera “Lucia,”” and for the lovely
young singer, Barrientos.
Still, sport clothes might not
have been so inappropriate, for
that matinee, in some respects,
Sure, it was great sport to wave
our hankerchiefs and shout our
delight over the trills and rou
.Jades and cadenzas of the little
Spanish singer,
“Why do women wave their
handkerchiefs instead of applaud
ing when they wish to express
appreciation of a singer?” asked
one of the few men in the matinee
audlence yesterday afternoon,
“Because It hurts one's hands
10 applaud as enthusiastically as
one feels,” I responded quite
truthfully and succinetly, 1
thonght.
Why, our hands would have
been swollen to the size of No. 6
gloves had we tried to express in
beating palms together one-half
of what we thought about Barri
~ entos’ singing.
S 0 we waved our kerchiefs and
-~ shouted.
And Barrientos understood and
- liked it just as well. I know by
~ the way she smiled and kissed her
hand to us,
I hear there has been a rush
for “La Sonnambua” seats since
Barrientos came and sang and
~ oarried our hearts away. I told
you so Monday morning. Now,

ORSETRY has reached such perfec
tion today, that any figure—not de
formed, of course—can obtain shape
ly lines and good poise.
It is due to haste and carelessness that
the majority of figures do not look better
than they do.
Two things are necessary—first, select
ing a model individually designed for the
figure in question; second, adjusting the
corset properly to that figure. Among the
innumerable” models of American Lady
and Madam Lyra Corsets, there is a stvle,
perfect for every particular figure.
The model pictured here is designed for the well
developed medium figure or the stont figure, It
shows fullness through the bust and shoulder, the
hips are well confined and the front and back have
good straight lines with a pretty curve to the waist.
Elastic over the thighs afford esse of movement, a
graduated clasp flexible at the top, firm at the bot
tom, strengthens the corset and flattens the ab
domen.
Put yourself in the hands of experts here who
will be of the greatest assistance in selecting and
fitting your corsets to provide the greatest comfort
and maximum style,
American Lady Corsets are priced from $1 to
$3.50, and Madam Lyras are $3.50 to $12.50.
