It la only Justice to ay that her Jealousy does not extend to the beauties of the stare. Probably more than that of any ofher actress the beauty of Lillian Russell has appealed to all classes of -women. About her women the world over have raved without one dissenting- voice. To study her they have saved up their shekels with sacrifices which would have depleted her audiences of men If as many of them had found It neces sary' to put the pleasure money pf months In one long- look at the beautiful face and flirure and gnwna at the fair actress. ; The ardent enthusiasm and admiration with which aha Si hisplrea her feminine worshipers seems to be a r'""'" emotion of delight, .which Is the result of the appeal which she makes to them artistically. There Is also another side to the blind devotion which she Inspires. When one goes to see the superb Lillian In WOft and finds her more radiantly fair and marvelously graceful and youthful than any ploture that the wildest dream of memory can recall of her In the 'Wis. the sight Is an object levmin whldt Inspires even the plainest woman to her very soul. ' For Instance, what woman who sees this actress In the Statuesque pose with which she lifts her chin and eyes In the picture of her taken In 1!K will not hold her own head In this way for days with the result that she believes that she is prettier and partakes In some degree of the beauty of a happy confidence In one's self. ) I X 1
