A note from you on the back of a post card, before it’s too iate is enough. Opening its pages is like stepping into the smartest shop in America. But there is this difference: the prices are very moderate— no more than ordinary clothes cost. The styles are truly enticing modes— the kind that really good dressers hunt high and low to find. Whether you ever buy from it or not, you’ll gather from its pages many new and splendid ideas about the season’s fashions. Smart Wearing Apparel That Every Woman Loves We spare no expense in searching out beautiful styles and creating our own new designs. We build sample garments of everything regardless of cost — even down to the tiniest bits of underwear. We employ the country’s best designers and fashion artists for this purpose. That accounts for the smartness and unusual charm in all our clothes. You will delight in its completeness — for it IS a big, thick book and shows exactly nine hundred and ninety-nine different articles of women’s \/eanDg apparel— footwear to millinery. ( Mail Post Card Now ) Then the most practical experts duplicate these superb samples for about one-fifth the original. That’s the real secret of our business— the true art in clothes-making. In the end, none but an insider can tell garment from garment. A Shop Only for Women We sell nothing but women’s wear— from footwear to millinery. Dealing with women exclusively, we have learned what they demand in clothes of tj,ny price. A beautiful style is often marred by unsightly finish— poor linings and shoddy buttons. So we make it a point to always put a little more care into such things, than 18 usual. We know from long experience that it pays. Good dressers examine such things first. So don't think of the Blue Book of Style as Just an ordinary catalog — of ordinary fashions. Don't think you will not nnd in it things that are not good enough— styles above your means. It is for everyone. All the Risk is Ours— Delivery Charges Prepaid Rest assured on this point: We will never allow you to even be slightly displeased with anything you ever select from us.

Once the action was interrupte hy a laugh from the assistant director. “What is it?” asked Director Hamji ton. “\Miat's the matter?” said tlie star. The assistant explained : “You liave your liand out of tlie \vii|i dow, and it is supposed to lie down; yo' can sec tlie sash !” I The scene was, of course, retaken. ' The picture has not, at this writin,;! been named, but it is from a scenario l:t William Parker, and the cast includ(| Forrest .Stanley, Wdlfred Lucas an: Charles Clary. It is directed by Jes;! Hampton, the head of the company. Crace Darmond was born in Toront Canada. Her father was a concert vi( linist. After his death, she and Ik mother went to Chicago, where a frien a scenario writer, gave her an introdiv tion to the Selig company. Her fir picture was a comedy, “When the Cloc Went WTong.” “I was the most disappointed persci in the world when I saw it,” she sail “Not because I looked so bad, I didn but because I could not see myself at a I played an important part, too — it w? really the lead — but I didn’t know ho: to ‘p^^y to the camera,’ so all any or could see of me was the back of my he;i or my heels.” After about six months with Selig sl| went to Vitagraph. Her worst difficuh at that time wa.s in overcoming a curio-’ little mannerism she had, “a way,” si' said, “of twisting my lip; it look dreadful on the screen !” Some of her pictures which cor: readily to mind are “The House of i Thousand Candles,” “The Millionai' Baby,” “A Texas Steer” and, more li cently, “The Man Who Came Back” af “An American Ace,” with Earle W: Hams. The latter is her favorite pictu:. She paid an earnest tribute to its dir(I tor. “I’ve had more help and encoi: agement from James Young than fret any other director I’ve ever worked fo ’ It is said of Mr. Young that he gro’f; very much excited when things go wro; and is even likely to throw a new hat s the ground and stamp on it. “He doesn’t do that any more,” st Grace Darmond. “He told me that I realized how much he had been harm!; himself and intended to take thin calmly from now on!” She has not been long enough w Director Hampton to become famil with his methods. “He seems to be vf quiet,” she said, “and just as kind as” can be !” Again, during a pause in a scene, D eye fell on the long line of buttons i her tunic, and she began counting, “R i man, poor man— — ” ; “What is it to be?” I called at 1) end, and she called back, laughing, '] doctor !” She is twenty years old, likes ham al {Continued on page 70) (Sixty-eight)
