It is a tailor gown, made with a skirt tittiug snug about her hips and flaring about the feet. The little Engl sh bov coat has a seamless back and is finished with seams and pockets. The waistcoat is of figured satin and there is a fob and a 6aiIor hat with a letteied ribbon about the crown. Then in the second act she drifts in looking ike a great pink rose. Her gown is ot pink taffeta, the shade of the sky just at the tit st touch of dawn, and it is flounced to the wai6t, the edges of the rutins lining pink. In the last act she dons a lace and lawn creation with a bid ice of accordion plaited green satin. Toe frocks are all beautifully adapted to the wearer's style, and all the women in toe audience sigh when she comes on thsstsga.
