They declare that life without tights and calclum J@ unendurable, and that they will enjoy their expected stage triumphs to the fullest—iittle recking of the morning that surely follows the “one-night stands” of the burlesquers ‘and the difference then. Mrs. J. Robert Levispn, the sipl's young 5 mother, may to-day invoke the ald of the Gerry society to keep Hattie, the younger sister, who is only fifteen years old, from going on the tour of the Rents-Santley Burlesque Company, with which the ajsters have signed. Dalsy is just past elghteen years and so beyond the soclety’s reach, Both girls have deciared that they will not give up what they term thelr “ambition” except through the tnter- ference of law.

Their new names, under which they hope to shine in the burlesque onnstella- tion, are Daisy Du Mont and Hattle Bartel. They have left their stepmoth- er's home, at Na 323 West Twenty-aixth mreet, and are rehearsing dally at Ar- Sogton Hall for “The Jolly Widow." Just $10 a week is the sum that they will receive for «disporting themreives in pink fleshings on the stage—¥.i0 for Daisy and $22 for Hattle, For this they have given up their home and the chance of a career on the legitimate stage. This Mrs. Levison was working to get them, giving In that much to their love for life behind the scenes. ‘Mra. Levison’s own sory tells the whole tale—why the sisters want to 60 with the burlesquers and why they should not. It !s a story not often told. Her Stage Life.
