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 really the only
‘ sport tendency in that was the
shnilarity of material to that used
in the sgo-called spoft styles. As
. & 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
matineé goers deemed it worth the
trouble to look their best in silks
and chiffons for the lovely old
opera “Lacia,” and'for the lovely
Young singer, Barrientos,
Still, sport clothes might not
have been =0 inappropriate, for
that matinee, in some respects,
Sure, it was great wort to wave
our hankerchiefs and shout our
delight over the trills and rou
lades 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
audience yesterday afternoon,
“Because it hurts one's hands
to applaud as enthusiastically as
one feels” I responded {ulto
truthfully and succinetly, 1
thonght.
Why, our hands would have
been swollen to the size of No. §
#gloves had we tried to express In
beating palms together one-half
of what we thought about Barri
entos’ singing. »
So 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
carried our hearts away. 1 told
you so Monday morning. Now,
didn't 1?
You see how nice little ladies
who obligingly make their debuts
&t a hurry-up matines perform
ance when needed, instead of
having temperament and holding
off for the supposedly .more elab
grate evening 'debut as sched-
Lled, reap their reward. No audi
ence could have given a singer
& more enthusiastic reception
than the little Spanish soprano
got vesterday. And tonight—
well, T am going to take a second
~ pair of gloves, In case my wav
ing handkerchief falls to express
what 1 expect to feel
By the way, 1 expect all the
Wwomen saved up their very pret.
tiest gowns to wear last night,
for never did 1 see soo many love-
Iy costumes as at the Driving
Club dinner-dance. And the club
~ house was in gala array as well,
. With hundreds and hundreds of
roses, of various kinds, ranging
_ from the American Beauty to the
. Dorothy Perkins—up or down, as
you wish. Four hundred and
ninety people came out. 1 didn't
count 'em. but that's what | was

Iy dissolve and entirely destroy every

ORSETRY has reached such perfec-
C tion today, that any figure—mot 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.
o
Two things are necessary—first, seleet
ing a model individually designed for the
figure in question; second, adjusting the
corset properly to that figure. Among the
inmumerable models of American Lady
and Madam Lyra Corsets, there is a style,
perfect for every particular figure.
The model pictured here is designed for the well
developed medium figure or the stout figure. It
shows fullness through the bust and shoulder, the
hips are well confined and the front and baek have
good straight lines with a pretty curve to the waist.
Elastic over the thighs afford ease 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.
