Moe HE WORLD:: FRIDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 12, 1902. SOCIETY SPLIT. “THE CORSET MAKES THE WOMAN” LITA MATCH TO OVER THE DUKE. "American" Element Sides with Mrs. Gam- brill, Whose Home Boris Abruptly Left. - TOOK OFFENSE AT DINNER. Not Served First, He Took His Leave Accompanied by Mem- bers of His Party, Including | Mrs. Goelet. Grand Duke Boris has taught Newport that when in Rome to do as the Romans do {is not a rule for royal ob- servance. The lesson was taught at the expense and humiliation of Mrs. Richard Gambrill, at whose dinner the Grand Duke was a guest of honor. Newport to-day is divided into hostile camps over the propriety of the Grand Du conduct in taking with the ut- Most seriousness the error or indlacre- tion of Mrs. Gambrill's butler. It was a trifilng error from some points of view, but so far reaching in its results that Mrs. Gambrill has been placed without the pale of thuse who will meet the Duke during the remain- @er of his stay in Newport. It may also Interfere somewhat with the popu- larity of the royal visitor among those wh Americanism is stronger than wome other qualities which seem in- digenous to the atmosphere of Newport. in Russia, as in other kingdoms, mem- bers of the royal family always receive the first attention. One of Mra, Gam- brill’ ervants, however, served soup to tl stess before the Grand Duke was waited upon. The royal blood of Russia boiled at that. The nephew of the Czar, who has repeatedly arrived anywhore trom fifteen minutes to an hour behind the time at dinners given in his could not brook ated: nor, uch a fracture of the The jar to his ores Rimpete hoste a. abrupt mselt tess and al y withdrew from the dinning hall.

The Board of Estimate Acts Quickly on Brooklyn Exten- sion, Then Awards Bronx Ashes Contract, i First of All—and Here Is the Point to Emphasize — Get a Good Corset and Then—and Here Is An- —Put It On in a Proper | Way. By Harriet Hubbard Ayer. 1 dent of the Dressmakers’ Protective Association, has declared that “the corset makes the woman.” In other words, as I understand Miss White, a well-corseted woman only can present a fashionable, up- to-date appearance. A woman may be dressed with the severest simplicity, with the slightest expenditure, and be well turned out if she wears the correct corset and other Thing to Recollect| Miss Elizabeth White, clever Presi- | | knows how to wear it. She cannot look well dressed—chic or distingushed—no matter how ele- gant her gown, how expensive or how fashionable the cut if it be worn over an {ll-fitting corset. By her ccr- set must she be judged—this lovely woman of the twentieth century. Misa White is 80 convincing that were she to look me in the eyes and say the moon Is a plum pudding and Twenty- third street is located in the middle of Central Park I should unhesitatingly take her word for it. Agrecs with Miss White, When Miss White issues a pro- nunciamento, when she says “a corset is the secret of a woman's good looks and Is responsible for her failure ag an object lesson in beauty and grace, am disposed to cry: ‘Hear! Hear!" and feel a desire to repeat her words through @ megaphone to the countless women who need to be worked up on the aubject. At the head of the corset department of the Woman's Protective Association there {s @ dainty little creature who je an entire sermon from the opening hymn to the doxelogy on the “How to wear @ corset” text, If you don’t believe In the charm, the fascination of a beautiful woman's fig- ure perfectly corseted, I just ask you as one woman to another to go and look at litte Mrs, Starbuck, head corset department of the Wom- an'’s League, now in eesthing session. Oh, but it was a clever move of Miss ‘White's to get this tiny woman with the exquisite figure to lead women on to the new corset habit! A Real Beauty.

Bhe bas snowy white hair, and a jealous dressnaker sister told me in a hoarse whisper that Mrs. Starbuck has & son thirty-four years old, and I fairly gasped with agtonishment! All I have to say is that if sons of that age can exhibit mothers with eighteen-year- figures the sooner we find out how it 1s done the better. 80, looking susptolously at Mrs. Star- ouck, I sald: corsets that give you thet figure.
