Last years beauties are reigning
again this season in London. The Ouch
ess of Sutherland, Georgiana Lady Dud-
ley, Lady Brooke, who has just become
Countess of Warwick; Lady Henry Fitz
Gerald, Lady Fowls and Lady de Traf-
ford still hold their own against all
newcomers. Princess Henry of Pless,
Mrs. Hamburg, Lady Chelsea, Lady
Rossmore and Mrs. Lancelot Lowther,
among the married bellies, and Lady
Ulrica Duncombe, Lady Sophia Cado-
gan, and Miss Mauriel Wilson of the
unmarried beauties are all attracting
much attention. But the sensation of
the season was Princess Helene dor
leans, who is beautiful even beyond the
privilege of princess.
Women of the middle classes are said
to be much handsomer now than they
were 20 years ago in England, taller,
better formed and more brilliant in col
oring. The typical English girl is as
daintily pink and white and modest as
Burns "crimson tipped flower" The
typical English wife is rather color
less and uninteresting type with the
pink faded out of her cheeks, the gold
dulled to dun brown in her hair, the
blue dulling to gray in her eyes, and
after this comes the blowzy stage, par
ticularly with women greatly addicted
to the heavy burgundies and clarets of
the English dinner. But owing to in
ternational marriage this new type of
beauty, with stronger coloring united
to the fine English physique, is becom-
ing more and more common and varies
the general average of English beauty
several degrees. London Letter.

How much money is spent annually
In newspaper advertising? Probably
any estimate less than 5000, 900, 600
would fall short of the facts. Some
single firms have spent as much as
$500, 900 in year. To put out such
enormous sums requires a large ma
chinery in and out of the advertisers
offices, and the business-or the art,
as you may choose to consider it-com-
mands the services of men Of high
order of ability.-John Irving Roners
