Tips and TalesConcerning the

“Pretty Mrs. Smith Co.”

Kitty Gordon and her merry

associates hold the record for hav-

ing just completed the longest

journey yet made by a theatrical

organization, that of from Los

Angeles to Boston, without a stop.

The distance at a rough estimate

is 3400 miles.

Attached to the special train that

speeded Kitty Gordon and her

company eastward was what is

known to Westerners as a club car.

Oliver Morosco, Miss Gordon’s

manager, arranged with the rail-

road authorities to have all the

chairs taken out of this car and a

piano substituted. In this man-ner rehearsals were in vogue andthe company were kept as busily

engaged as though they were in

a regularly equipped theatre.

Oliver Morosco who is starring

Kitty Gordon in “Pretty Mrs.

Smith/” has just launched another

musical play in Los Angeles, called

“Rita’s Romance.” The book is byLeo Detrichstein and Avery Hap-wood Burt, with a musical score bySilvio Hein, who composed the

music of “When Dreams ComeTrue.”

Business

gent campaign of

CORT THEATRE— THE HOUSE BEAUTIFUL

Kitty Gordon relates a good “kid-

die” story which has to do with the

visit to a friend’s house of old

Doctor Stork. Calling at the resi-

dence of the newly-arrived young-

ster, Miss Gordon was met at the

door by the small daughter of the

family, to whom she said:

“Hello, Marion, I hear you have

a new baby brother?”

“Yes,” responded Marion.

“Is he going to stay awhile?”

asked the actress.

“I dess so,” ’replied Marion, “he’s

dot his clothes off.”

One of the cars of the special

train that bore Kitty Gordon and

her company across the continent

was a seventy-foot automobile bag-

gage car. In this car reposed Miss

Gordon’s Packard limousine andlikewise her Grinnell electric run-

about, Charlotte Greenwood andSydney Grant’s Mercer touring car,

Roy Atwell’s Pope Hartford, Har-rison Hunter’s Fiat runabout, Ed-ward Martindel’s Winton, and Lil-

lian Tucker’s Babcock electric.

Some garage for one theatrical

company to transport around the

country.

Evening.

Presumptively, fashion is the say-soof the many. Really, it is the say-soof the few, for the most fashion-

able things are those not in general fash-ion. Just as soon as a fashion becomesthe fashion, it ceases to be fashion. Allof which sounds like “speaking platitudes

in stained-glass attitudes,” but is necessaryto a true appraisement of the modes ofto-day.

Fashion is a cloak that is stretchedto cover a multitude of singularities, fromtwo-dollar hats (faugh!) to evening mur-ders that “snap on” (ugh!) Or,—if youpull hard enough, you can even make it

cover the “flare” dancing trousers, pic-tured in the accompanying sketch.

These are cut to flare or bell out overthe instep, sailor- style. They are slashedup the side to tnebraid, and are sup-posed to be “awfullyswagger” (sic.) forthe "soiree dansante”and very “bong tong”for the “petit sou-per” after the play.With these trousers,one (one Is quiteenough) wears a nar-row silk sash-beltthat is knotted like asport ’kerchief.

Dreadful, isn’t it?But, the introducerconildently expectsthat this will worka revolution in even-ing dress. I hope it

will, and as assas-sination starts everyfirst-class revolution—well, let the intro-ducer of “flare” trousers take to his heelswhile he may.

Afternoon.

Different-pattern waistcoats or “fancywaistcoats,” as the shopman says,have long been outmoded. They are ontne brink of a revival in delicate stripesMid cnecks, and in contrasting colors like

nite, tan and pearl.

Most of the garments are cut double-breasted after the English manner, withlow -lying, overlapping lapels and a wider,

Such different-pattern waistcoats nowaccompany both the frock coat and thenorningcoat” (cutaway), and the colors,plain, should be in soft pastel tints,

ither than sharply contrasting.

This is a face-about of fashion, sincele “self” or same-pattern waistcoat to-ether with the white “slip” or edgingas been in vogue for several years.

We seem to be tiring of the color-;ss monotony of afternoon dress, withs negative black-and-white theme, justwe tired of the dark- someness of even-

lg dress. And as in evening clothes, so infternoon clothes, the waistcoat is theily accessory thatin be vivified with

While English walking boots are andIways will be the “smartest,” the mode inocts for formal wear is dicated by Parishis season.

Such a shape, for example, as the newquare-toe boot, and such “etceteras” asat gaiter buttons, instead of round bulletuttons, are confessedly of French inspira-'.on.

records, including- the Edison, Victor,

Columbia, Zonophone, Gramophone orforeign makes, on the new EDISONDISC PHONOGRAPH, bv means of a

simple attachment to hold a needle-style reproducer.

Everybody who hears a few of thenew Diamond Disc Edison Recordsquickly exclaims, “What a difference,”or “It doesn’t have that metallic sound.’“It doesn’t sound like a talking- ma-chine.” “How will you trade for my

?” “Can I play other recordson it?” etc. “How I wish I had heardthis before,” etc.

The Edison Disc Phonograph can get all theMusic out of any Disc Record

If you buy anything- in the phono-graph line you had better be surethan sorry. If you can afford to pay$00 or more be sure and hear theEdison before you part with the money.Many who boug-ht machines that use theold style steel needle are sorry theydid not hear the Diamond ReproducerEdison, first.

There was a time when other rec-

ords cauld not be played on the Edison,and some boug-ht other machines forthat reason.

That is chang-ed now, and if you wishto use Caruso, or McCormack, or Melba,or Tetrazzini records, buy them whereyou like and play them on the Edison.

But no make of record is as truly

musical as an Edison Disc Record.

CORT THEATRE— THE HOUSE BEAUTIFUL

THIRTEEN YEARSThere is one curious Street in Bos-

ton that is undisturbed by vehicles,

between busy School Street andquiet Court Square, in the shadowof City Hall and its annex, close byYoung’s Hotel, called City Hall Ave.

Topically it is more like an old

London By-Way than any other

street in Boston, it is pleasant, con-

venient and has admirable economic

advantages and of all romantic loca-

tions it is ideal for a watch and

diamond shop.

Here 13 years ago, the Kingsley

Shop was established. It occupied

then a very small floor space con-

taining one case showing a few

watches and gems, the remaining

half of the store being sublet to an

optician. The working force con-

sisted besides Mr. Kingsley, of one

watchmaker and a boy.

To-day this establishment occupies

not only the entire original store but

another equally as large has been

added besides two show rooms be-

yond them, a workshop on a mez-zanine and another one in the rear.

Tts working force consists of four-

teen experts in its salesrooms and

workshops, the latter turning

out work equal to any in the world.

There are few stores in Boston

that can vie in its decorative effects,

with the artistic arrangement of this

Kingsley establishment. Its Mural

decorations deserving special men-tion as being real gems of art.

To anyone knowing Mr. Kingsley,

the secret of his success will be no

surprise. His greatest pleasure con-

sists in producing a truly wonderfuljewel or correcting an intricate, mar-velous timepiece and he personally

directs and supervises all depart-

ments of his up-to-date establish-

ment,. , t J 13
