Mrs. Langtry Has Made a Great 'Deal of Money Out of Royal- London Correspondence. There isn't any country in the world where it pays better to have a pretty face than it does here in Kngland. That is--| 7 Dettet. in dard cash. Good looks dys have been at a premium in this country and the public is fond of owning pictures of noted beauties, but in t st ten or fitteen years this oraze has grown to such an extent that thotograghers here pay heavy royal ties to handsome society and stage women in return for the exclusive priv- ilsge of taking and selling their like- NOsKes, I was told the other day by J. W. Downey, the leading court photogtaph- er of Ebury street, Belgravia, that at the present moment there are at least six women in Fogland whose good looks bring them in from $2,500 to 85,000 a year in this way, and that there are at least 100 who are in re ceipt of incomes ranging from $350 to 81,250 a year from royalties on the sale of their photographs. Mrs. Langtry is supposed 10 hold the record for this sort of money-making. 3 the craze over here was at its height 500,000 photographs of the Jer- sey Lily were sold in Great Britain, their fair subject receiving six cents a copy royalty and clearing £50,000. Hair Grower ; A GREW i THIS you against imitations, are on every box. Mary Anderson's photographs also had a huge sale, going at thi rate of hothathing like 100,000 5 vear for a de- cade. aud Jeffries, the American girl, who played Mercia in Wilson Bar rett's "Sign of the Cross," made 810. 000 in less than two years out of pho- tographic royalties, while Edna May is supposed to have done even better. During the run of "The Belle of New York" in London the Syracuse girl's portraits were being distributed in this country at the rate of 5.000 a week. There is no doubt what woman it is whose photograph now commands the largest sals in this country. Queen Alexandra enjoys this distinction, but, of course, etiquette forbids her ma. jesty to make any profit out of the sale of her pictures. The most popular pictures of the queen is one taken in the robes and cap of a Doctor of Music. This has sold by scores of thousands, and it is estimated that the total number of the queen's pic- tures disposed of must run well onto seven figures, and her majesty easily SEVEN SUTHERLAND SISTERS SOLE PROPRIETORS Canadian Office, 258 Yonge 8t., Torento 4.

Oddly enough, the law, the duchess before her marriage having been Miss Shelagh West. Other society women, who undoubtedly gain a tidy amount of pin money through the sale of their photographs, are the Countess, of Warwick, Lady de Grey, Lady Helen Vincent and Lady Pole Carew, who perhaps, can be described as the most classically beautiful wo- man in English society, that the graphs of British women of title are Amerjcan tourists of the gentler sex. and prominence. cording to the looks and along ess Ed of "The School Girl," the first night notices recorded the Burke and her ditty. noe," scored the success of the even- ing, and she has repeated the perfor- mance for 350 times, pretty and talented mand a fat salary indefinitely, but no doubt the handsome sale of her will not come amiss, ps e ¥ Cy . ; So Down; avy court hete, ie IT. i} | grapher, w i | © But shan't mind that.

Miss Millar is paratively: a new 'comer, but her good carried her fast that she is now the bright particular star at the Gaiety.

She might have followed the ex- ample of Rosie Boote, now Marchion- now Lady Clancarty, and Connie Gilchrist. now Countess of Orkney, and married into the peerage, but instead she be- stowed her hand upon Lionel Monck- ton, the young composer of with which she made her hit.

Downey arranged his camera in a sitting room and waited. When the queen came in she said: "I can give you only five minutes, Mr. Downey, Lord Palmerston has an appointment with me, and I must not keep him .waiting." The pidture was-a success, and from that 'moment commissions to photo- graph royalty literally poured in. Downey considers, however, that he practically made his fortune through one vhotograph--that of the present queen, then Princess of Wales, carrvy- ing the Duchess of Fife, who at the time was a little girl, on her back. He sold 300,000 prints of this photo- graph, and made close on £40,000 out of it. At the time of the diamond jub- ilee 1,000,000 prints were sold of a photograph of Queen Victoria, also n- | taken by Downey. he he nt Our ¢ Far-Flung Battle Line."
