Rensselaer Republican, Volume 28, Number 10, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 7 November 1895 — Baroness Rothschild's Courtesy. [ARTICLE]
Baroness Rothschild's Courtesy.
Baroness Rothschild is noted for her delicate courtesy. Recently she invited a famous prlina donna to drive and after dinner asked her to try the tone of her piano. Not a sound came from the keys. “I had the instrument unstrung this morning, mademoiselle,” said the baroness, “that you might see that the only pleasure that I promised myself from your presence this evening was the presence of your society." Statistics show that during the past season girls have worn shirt waists an every occasion except to be burled Id. The feathers which some girls wear around their necks la winter are not warm, and are nothing but a bluff.
