Famous Actress Says High Heels Are Not Injurious Eyeglasses Are Called Unlovely Rubin a Powerful Sculptor How to Light the Home Artistically,
BY MADAME SARAH BERNHARDT.
Translation bv Le Marquis da Cnstelhomond;
(Copyright. 1812. Rochambeau Newspaper
Syndicate. Philadelphia. All rights re
served.) THE generality of people' imagine
that It la bad to walk on high
heels. This la an error. It does
no harm whatever.
It Is simply necessary that the shoes
should be by one of the best makers;
that the end of the heel be placed under
the middle of the foot, so that the
weight of the body falls upon that
point and th" long part of the heel.
Nothing is so ungraceful as flat and
low heels: they throw the bust back
ward, while making the stomach pro
trude. Besides, It gives women the
same gait as men.
Look at all the sportswomen! They
walk like boys, the arms sticking out
from the body, the neck thrust for
ward, the shoulders square, the stom
ach curved. It Is frightful.
Then, thanks to high heels, a woman
Is able to balance herself and keep the
equilibrium of her proportions, a thing
necessary to aesthetic bearing.
Help the Pretpertlosus.
If a woman has a bust a little too
long, she may add length to her legs
by heels two or three centimeters nign.
This will make her bust seem normal.
If the head is too large, heels of six
or seven centimeters will make a wom
an so much larger that the slxe of her
head will be in proportion to her ngure.
In mv com Dan v there Is a little act
ress having a head which Is a little
too larare. As an artist she Is charm
Inff and very intelligent, and as a wom
an she Is delightful, but one always
said of her, "Yes, she is very nice, but
really too small."
Irritated by these remarks, she had
made for her, two years ago, shoes
having heels 10 centimeters high, and
all those people who regretted her be
ing so short, said:
"Whatever is It that has changed
her? She looks much smarter than
formerly," and as she had passed the
age when one still grows, they all mar
veled over the happy alteration.
As for herself, one msy see her run
ning about with the high beels which
have rectified the shortcomings, nature
Imposed upon her.
Personally, I am rather above the
middle height, but wear high heels.
According to the parts I play, I reduce
them or Increase them still more.
Low Her la With Short Dresa.
In Summer, I' wear heels which are
Hot quite so high because costumes are
shorter, and so they are not needed by
tall women.
But In Winter I wear heels which are
, very high, because one's furs enlarge
' the body and evening gowns having a
train require a woman to be tall.
All this might appear a little super
fluous, but nothing should be left to
chance when the charm of "lines Is In
question.
Eyeglasses Are Unlovely
I
WAS struck, while In America, by
the great number of girls and wom
en and even children who wore eye
glasses. And nothing Is more horrible than
this ornament recommended by ocu
lists. That men should wear glasses Is to
roe really a matter of Indifference. The
stronger sex can make themselves as
ugly as they please, but women! and
girls!
The long-handled lorgnette Is so
pretty, quite as useful and surely more
sensible than eyeglasses, the too fre
quent use of which becomes an abuse
which one cannot give up; while on the
other hand the long-handled glasses
are not raised except to look attentive
ly at something. One always sees well
enough, unless one is blind, to walk
along the streets and to eat one's meals.
Mother Was Near-sighted.
My mother was short-sighted, as few
people are. She half-closed her pretty
eyes and leaned forward to look a
things, but she never wore glasses. She
adored making tapestry even fine
point. She raised her work close to
her face and did not use her lorgnette
except when she thought she had made
a Mitch too many or too few.
She preserved her signt until the end
of her life. Improved rather than Is
usually the case with short-sighted
people.
Glasses might be worn by children
who have bad eyes, but that Is to rem
edy a defect, and one should be careful
to take them off frequently. The eyes
become used to them and get lazy. One
of my relatives who bad a fairly nor-
pial sight got Into the habit of wearing!

glasses. She Is ii years old, and her
fine eyes became filled with blood ves
sels and she says she cannot get over
the habit of wearing them.
At times she was struck by a bell
which broke the glasses, and It :i
feared now that she might lose an eye.
She was so pretty before she caught
this stupid mania in America.

It ages women. It gives them a ma
tronly and professor-like air, wnicn is
altogether disagreeable. It leaves an
ugly little mark on the nosa-.
The monocle is pretty, the folding
lorgnette Is graceful and the long-handled
lorgnette Is elegant. It admits of
pretty movements. One plays with It
as one does with a string of pearls.
Then It -might be an artistic and
precious article, while on the other
hand eyeglasses remain eyeglasjes,
without grace, without beauty and
without affording any real benefit.
Rodin Powerful Sculptor,
YES! Rodin is a great and Immense
and powerful sculptor. And It Is
a happiness to us who are of the great
family of art to Bee that all the New
World understands and admires this
colossus among artists.
The genius of the man is eclectic
He confines himself to no particular
style: he has studied them all. tried
them all and succeeded.
"L'Alge d'alratn," which was his first
conception. Is quite another thing to
his "Spring" and "The Kiss." The
"Bourgeois de Calais" Is still an
other manifestation of his marvelous
versatility. His "Balxac," which raised
among us such a lot of controversy,
shows him in a spirit of mystery. His
"Penseur," no less discussed than the
"Balzac," exhibits him as a dreamer.
Michael Angelo has shown us men
and women such as he wished them to
be; he made them elegant, even in
their strength. '
Shows Mn as They Are.
Rodin shows us men dust as he sees
them and such as they are, ana at
times with a' frankness bordering on
the brutal.
Like MIchael-Angelo also, Rodin has
the passion for doing hands, and the
hands of all his statues are living and
show the characteristics of the people
to whom they belong.
Moreover, one must admire the Mfe
like attitude which animates the beings
he creates.
Very truly antique works are beau
tiful, but they have not the same ani
mated look. I prefer vitality in an
expression to the placid Vacancy of a
strong gaze. Like MIchael-Angelo
again, Rodin is somewhat fractious and
fidgety, but unlike him he has not a
love for all the arts.
Is Indifferent to Painting.
To painting he Is rather indifferent
than otherwise, although he used to
do it in his early youth. Ha looks
with coldness on the theater and, ex
cept for the German philosophers, lit
erature has no charm, for him. But
what he delighta in beyond everything
is the sculpture of the Middle Ages,
and In all its forms, figures, groups or
decorative designs in wood or stone.
He has brought together a large
quantity of masterpieces, which are
destined in the future for the French
museums.
Indeed, one cannot too much admire
the generaus Intention of this great
artist, who spends the whole of his
fortune in order to leave to his native
land everything which he most loves
and admires. Including his own' works.
be It understood for Rodin admires
what he creates, and his pride In them
is Justified by the gigantlo power of
his work.

How to.Light the House
FEW things are more difficult than
to distribute light artistically, and
yet light Is the collaborator of beauty.
It is really only in France ' where
they know how to illuminate a dinner
table.
In America and England, with the
exception of two or three great homes,
the tables are Illuminated abominably,
and pretty women lose half their
beauty in consequence.
One of my young friends was mar
ried five years ago to a rich American
of Chicago, and she did me the honor
of her very beautiful home, where I
remarked with stupefaction the faulty
distribution of electric light. '
I told her that for a Srenchwoman
it would be unpardonable to illumi
nate the house in such manner.
"You have superb pictures on which
the light is thrown In a stupid way,"

"Hush!" he said, "do not revive my
wife's grief; it was my mother who
Insisted upon doing everything, and
who was responsible for the lighting.
I do not wish to oppose her, and
begged my wife to wait. My mother
goes to California In two days, where
her home Is, and we will rearrange
everything after she Is gone. You will
help us." '
And, Indeed, two days later we were
free to turn everything upside down,
and I did It with great ardor.
In the hall of the home were very
fine pictures, some of which were cov
ered with glass to protect them; each
picture had a little reflector.
This reflector caused a crude and
hard glare, which lighted up the bot
tom of the picture, while leaving the
upper part In shadow; -but to make
things worse It lighted up the entire
surface of the protecting glass over
the pictures and blinded whoever
looked at It.

this moment of writing these lines I
am upon the sea. A few moments ago
the captain left my cabin, where we
had been playing a four-handed game
of dominoes as best we could.
Last night the weather was atroci
ous, and when I asked the captain
what sort of a night we were going
to have, he replied: "Very much the
same as last night." which is to say,
"the midst of a witches' wild dance."

Is enough to drive one crazy. All the
woodwork creaks; the chairs roll
about, the tables tumble over, carrying
with them glasses and decanters.
A case of lemons has Just been
smashed open, the lemons are scattered
everywhere, and In my sitting-room,
in my cabin and bathroom there Is a
veritable race between the beautiful
golden fruit and three people who are
lying flat on the rug attempting to
seise them as they fly about.
My little dog, Bellidor, Imagines
that this has all been staged for his
amusement, and he Jumps about bark

the unsellable balls.
The sea Is so furious that It has
Invaded the smoking-room, and one
may hear the people hurrying back to
their staterooms. The portholes are
tightly closed; It Is impossible to open
them.
The wind rages with such fury that
It roars through the air valves and
rushes out savagely. Imitating the
noise of a siren. It is a mad uproar.
The ponderous and monumental waves
rise and fall with frightful tumult.
This perpetual battle between the
genius of man and the forces of na
ture really stirs the emotions, and It
is a triumph for man.
But how unpleasant it is to be
closed up In these little white and gold
prisons, so full of trials and disagree
able surprises. And again, though one
Is on the ocean, yet one does not see
the ocean; It becomes confused with
the sky within one's limited horizon.
All those who walk about on the
deck look so comic; whether they walk.

are ridiculous.

NOTHING Is more dangerous than ac.

women have the same weakness for
easily doing this when at a foreign
watering place.
French women at Monte Carlo, Nice.
Ostend, Folkestone, Americans and
English in France and (often enough)
even young girls make unfortunate In
timacies which do not arouse their
families' -.' watchfulness. Generally
speaking, the flirt gets Into all the
gatherings at bathing places, and If
you make any remark on the subject:
"Bah I what does that matter?" you
get In reply. "When we get back to
Paris we shall see these people no
more."
This was said to me by a Madame
p , the wife of a very celebrated
Inventor, and the mother of four daugh
ters. And i was of such little importance
that her second'daughter was abducted
by a married Journalist and our law
was powerless to punish the wretch.
The ather of the girl struck this man
in the face and a duel, followed. The
Journalist had his left arm pierced by
a bullet; now he is all right again. But
the unhappy girl is abandoned and dis
honored. French Laws Protect Rascals.
The French law protects debauched
rascals before all others. Nothing has
been done- to., protect the feeble.
But it must also be acknowledged
that parents are very often guilty, and
there are none but parents to rely on.
Husbands are equally stupid ami make
friendships with adventurers, whom
they lnvltts to Join them in their walks,
to supper and fishing parties.
And ladies who chaperon American,
rJnglish or German girls (also often
gdllty) do not realize sufficiently the
tremendous responsibility thev have
accepted. I . know one who had the
charge of ten girls from the best fami
lies, and who, during a month they
passed at Geneva, accepted In their
midst an abominable little cocotte, 18
years of age. who passed herself off as
the sister of a clergyman.
It happened to be an attache of the
German embassy who reccgnlzed this
girl when he came to take away his
sister who had been put under the care
of this amiable chaperon, and this wo
man had struck up an Intimate friend
ship with the little German girl.
I leave you to Imagine what a scan
dal followed this event, but I think
that such scandals are not made suffi
