= unquestionably quite an essential factor
In the makeup OF a fashionably attired
lady. But how much more essential to
good looks, and especially to her enjoyment,
IS good health, without which she cannot
look we'll, feel we'll or enjoy life properly.
The trying ordeals which fashionable soci-
ETY. imposes on its devotees are enough to
severely test the physical strength and en-
durance of the most robust. Irregular and
lcte hours, over-rich and indigestible food,
late suPpers, the fatigue Of the ballroom,
the bad air of the illy-ventilated, over
crowded theatre, are each, in themselves,
sufficient to upset the system and ruin the
health Of the delicate and sensitive. Com
bined, they can hardly fail, if persisted in,
to seriously impair the health Of the hardi-
est: Ladies generally possess less powers of
endurance than their male consorts, and so
the sooner succumb to these deleterious in
fluences. They. become pale, haggard and

THE CENTURY PUZZLE.
A Question Over Which . Great Deaf Of
Armament ID Waited

Argument 10 Wasted.
We have reserved for the last Of the
puzzles the century question. which will
never be laid to- rest, we be-
lieve as long as the world
stands. We printed $50 proofs of a
former answer. and they have all been
distributed to parties who have quarrel
ed over it. A writer whose initials are
E. E. b. asks US in letter just to hand
whether the twentieth century begins
with January 1, 1900, or January l, 1901,
and declares that of all whom he ad-
dressed for an answer, about half took
one date and half the other. There
should be no question about it. This
century ends with the last moment Of
the year 1900, and the next begins JAN
uary l, 1901.
The middle grows out of the fixed
idea which some people have that the
reckoning of time begins with q cipher,
and that one is counted when the hour.
day, month, or year has closed; whereas
all thecounting of time begins with one,
and at the end of the first period two
begins to count Thus, when q child is
born, he enters upon the first day of the
first month of the first year of his life.
His ten years are finished, not when he
enters in his tenth year, but at its close;
and his hundred years are completed,
not when the hundredth year is begun,
but ended. When we write 1900 we have
begun the last of the century not ended
it. The centuries do not begin with 0.
100, 200, but with 1O1, POI, and thus the
twentieth century begins with 1901 at
the first moment OF that year. The
quoted date comes with the beginning,
not the close of the twelve months; and
therefore while we quote the year 1900
as we do every other year at its begin.
