Just why Norma Talmadge should
be so popular with every woman film
fan was a mystery to many for a long
time, but now it appears that Miss
Talmadge has the reputation of being
one of the best dressed women in mo

fine discrimination and excellent taste

Miss Talmadge a.fter a long study con
tends that she is working along the
