At this season of the year one finds com
paratively few French women. One
might say that the audiences consist al
most exclusively of Americans including
fashionable women and buyers of both
exes. The expressions on the different
faces will reveal to the careful observer
Just who they are and what they want.
The saleswomen, who meet you at the
door, "size you up" most of them In
solently enough, but you have the chance
to even things up. for you can always
turn up your nose at $200 or J2a0 gowns
and say: "I know they are cheap, but
I want something much better and mora
refined." Of course they can't get be
hind that argument and it gives you me
upper hand, never mind If you did almost
expire when you were told the price.
Imagine these people who think that
these gowns are Inexpensive In Paris!
One day s round-up of the great estab
lishments would prove the fallacy of this
belief; it Is also foolish to believe that
these houses care for the trade of poor
insignificant people who bring themselves
to the extravagance of a couple of gowns
at li0 or 150 apiece.
Not when rich South American planters
are floating around as was the case at
ne of the establishments that I visited.
He had In tow (or was It the other way
around) a woman of the utmost Ignor
ance -whose type was of the heavy, dull,
stupid sort and she was taking no In
terest whatever in his eIeetion of gowns,
which before he be-an with the furs had
already reached J10.000. Little wonder
that people who only spend $300 or $300
are not worth crossing the room to
Woe to the woman who can not wear

nothing else seen. Only the very bravest
will appear In shirtwaist and these must
be of the most feminine sort and tlie
tailor suits with which they are worn
are no longer the plain mannish affairs
of yore, hut are heavily embroidered or
braided directotrea altogether In keeping
with the elegance of the period from
which they are lifted. These are for
street wear and reflect the gowns seen
at the opera or in drawing rooms. .
The opening of the opera season In
Paris. In many respects makes one think
of the opening in New York as the audi
ences during these first weeks are almost
exclusively American, especially on the
nights where Mary Garden or Renaud
appear. We have come to feel a sort of
ownership, and when we note their Im
mense superiority, we are able to form
some Idea of the way Europe resents
our wholesale absorption of all of their
greatest artists. Mary Garden is beyond
all doubt an Idol In Paris, but she richly
merits the position. Paris la able to
understand and to appreciate the tremen
dous power of her subtle art which is
probably not surpassed by any artist
living. Her versatility la as wonderful
as her Interpretations which reveal a
keen student with a logical and philoso
phical mind. Her "Juliet" in Gounod's
Romeo and Juliet" was a masterpiece of
simplicity and delicacy and as Margue
rite in the same composer's- "Faust" she
minded a new and reasonable note.
Marguerite, at best, is but an episode

the role, makes her Marguerite a logical
entity who responds in a natural man

emotions. She awakens to the joy of
living and to life with its weaknesses, its

The Purchase
of a Piano
"Is one of the most important factors in furnishing
a home, as it is the only one of the household gods
whose voice is continually heard. If it is satisfac
tory it gives daily pleasure and comfort, whereas, if
not found worthy, it is a constant source of annoy
ance and disappointment. Should the intending
purchaser have no personal experience, he would
naturally have to rely either on the reputation of
the dealer or the advice of his friends when buying.
Ask anybody which is the best piano in the world,
and 99 out of a 100 will at once reply the
STEINWAY
PIANO
But '. what everybody
does not know is the
positive fact that the
percentage of profit on
the sale of a Steinway
piano is less than that
nf ntVipr makps. and
hence the Steinway, notwithstanding its higher
price, is, after all, the cheapest, as it represents the
greatest intrinsic piano value for every dollar ex
pended. If you have an old Steinway you have a
piano with a greater cash value today by fiO to 85
per cent than any other make. The new models, the
Steinway Vertegrand Piano at $575, and the Stein
way Miniature Grand Piano at $850, are the most
recent exponents of Steinway genius, and the public
is earnestly requested to examine and .try ' these
remarkable instruments before purchasing another
make.
