Who can Tell since it is Lovo which Uia Tho world go round How Many p Tifilo liar gone away from Tho Bell theater this week made braver by very message currying Hope and cheer to Tho Clou Neuru d music indeed hotly a popular Man is William Tompkins who Calls himself the topical talk St t la sense of there was n i amount of Good horse sense in the nonsense he ladled out and As a to list he s All right. Among Bell Roche and Leahy. The Fredricka Raymond Trio from London. The town topics of interest Vns n stray shot it to old City Hall and a sly hit at mayor Mott whom lie advised Sli Oula be entrapped into marriage by Stone enterprising la in of Oak land when her Day s work would be done. What s the matter with Mott what grud fro in heaven s name can or. Tompkins possibly Harbor against mayor Mot another bit of Wisdom did this same Homill St throw out to attentive ears.

Personally i than la there never was anything Mora fascinating in the any of feminine attire than this Srno garb of tha directorate period. But that is a Mere matter of opinion lacking general concurrence. It s my belief too that the opposition Camp is composed largely of fat women. Those Lazy creatures who Over eat and Over feed and being too to exercise develop High stomachs round Back and corpulent waists. I Don t believe for one minute that the male contingent of society could possibly Harbor dislike to anything so modest As the Long garment which has recently Beon creating such a stir social circles question of taste.

When next she comes out in up Ponse to vociferous hand clapping it is in the famous affair of diamonds. Till garment is a sort of mortified edition of the latest French Model in corsets Only it is worn outside the gown instead of beneath. It reaches so far As Waist is concerned High up under the arms with if memory serves me Little straps going Over the shoulders. In a downward direction it comes just above the Knees fitting tightly As needs must. From beneath the Educ cps Bil Pink in a most distract ing fashion. Tha mesh of this garment is Pink in colouring but at every Point it re initiates until there a Blaze of a steady Glare thousands upon thousands of tiny Sparks darkling the beholder. Gem of a smile. Not brighter however Are they than the in miss Ward s eyes nor the smile upon her face As she blown Kinas to the audience. I could t imagine what the under dog was like until i d seen it played.
