State; while, besides public grants, the
department of veterinary medicine of
the University of Pennsylvania has re-
ceived nearly 100000.
An important point with the Harvard
school is the extent of its clinic. 1t
maintains two hospitals; the free clinic
alluded to in the vote of the corpor-
alton, and the regular hospital in Viii
lage street in this city. Last year there
were 5,697 cases treated in the two. a
larger number than anywhere else in
the country, and nearly if not quite
equaling the number in such great elm
les in Europe as that of London. When
it is remembered that the excellence of
veterinary instruction depends largely
upon the number of cases which the
students are able to examine under the
guidance of their instructors, the i'm
portance of the Harvard School will
be at once apparent.

A TALK WITH A
BEAUTY EXPERT.
MRS. HARRIET HUBBARD AVER,
THE FAMOUS AUTHORITY ON
HEALTH AND BEAUTY, TELLS OF
HER LIFE AND WORK.

eff there Is one word in the English
language that is abused unscrupu-
lousy, it is the adjective delightful
but if you want to employ it correctly,
apply it to the charming little woman
who just left the elevator"
This beautiful compliment, coming
from the lips of one of the leading
ard most conservative newspaper men
in America, was made in the presence
OF your correspondent few days ago
in the building where one of New
York's greatest dailies is published.
The person spoken of was Mrs. Har-
riet Hubbard Aver, the famous beauty
expert, whose archaeological advice
has brought upon her head the bless
ing of women from every quarter of
the globe, including even far distant
Honolulu, South Africa, Japan and
China.
1t is safe to say that no woman in
Gotham is as busy as is Mrs. Aver. She
edits the woman page Of a leading
metropolitan daily, besides superin-
tending the home page of the evening
edition of the same publication; and
yet she finds time to answer the hun
dreds of letters which are poured upon
her desk with every incoming mail
begging for enlightenment upon the
laws of health and beauty.
But the wonder of it all is that with
the multifarious duties Mrs. Aver has
found time to write a book devoted
specially to topics of interest to women
containing something like six hundred
pages.
'The book is the result of fifteen
years Of hard work" said Mrs. Aver to
your correspondent a few days ago
"and l say it With no little pride that
there is not one thing in it that |
would be afraid for any woman to try.
In fact, all through my professional
career, it has been my motto never to
recommend any remedy which l would
hesitate to use myself were l in my
patients place"
about how many letters day do
you receive from women asking your
advice, Mrs. Ayer?" was inquired.
Well she replied, there are never
les than hundred and eighty-fiye. 1
have numbered as many as a thou
sand day. But this is the maximum
amount, and the cases were unusual. 4"

topics other than those relating to

and especially in honor of the defeat
OF the Afghans in the march from Ka-
Dull to Kandahar. He was created a
baronet in 1881 and Baron of Kandahar
and Waterford in 1892.
His campaign in South Africa. when
ne and Lord Kitchener were sent to
take hold of the desperate situation in
spite of Wolseley's opposition, is so re-
cent as to be in the minds of ALL His
lieutenant in Africa, a man nearly 20
years his junior, was Lieutenant Cen
eral Lord Kitchener, OF Khartum who
while OF English parentage. was born
IN ireland. He got his reputation. as
we Know, by his great campaign in the
Sudan, the capture of Khartum and the
battle OF Omdurman. He is as good a
hghter as Roberts, has been wounded
as many times as Wolseley and, like
the latter, won his chief laurels in
Egypt.
Another Irish born soldier "a Scotch
lrlShman) is Lieutenant General Sir
George Stewart White. the hero of Ia
dysmith, who made the great march
with Roberts from Kabul to Kanda-
har and through the Iatter's recommen-
dalton received the ''V. c." for excen-
tlonal bravery. He served under VOL
seley in the Nile expedition and under
RoDerts IN India, succeeding the latter
as commander in chief of the forces in
that country when Lord Roberts was
retired from the post. He won inner
lshable laurels in Burma, and, though
his promotions came slowly, in the end
he achieved high rank. After serving
as governor Of Gibraltar he was sent
to Africa to take command in Natal
and there this great trio-Roberts.
Kitchener, White-were united against
a common enemy.
1t is said that South Africa has been
the grave of the British soldiers reDu-
tation, but it seems that the fame of
these three is too firmly based to suffer
any loss. In truth, all have been recip-
tents of high honors for their conduct
there, and it is firmly believed that
when Lord Roberts shall have resigned
his commandership he will be succeed
ed by Kitchener, the dashing hero Of
Khartum.

rortionately full figure, light hair and
blue eyes, that express a sympathy
for human weaknesses as well as keen
wit. She possesses many accomplish
ments, is an authority on music and
an art critic of rare ability. She is
also an accomplished linguist.
In manner Mrs Aver is truly ode
lightful" She never refuses to see
any one who calls upon her and those
who seek advice from her receive it
cheerfully. Mrs. Aver is a firm be-
lever in that charming bit of French
philosophy which reasons that We
should never hesitate when it is in our
power to smile upon others. Light
ing another candle from one already
lighted never dims the brilliance Of
the formers flame.

Yes; and one of the happiest days
in my life was when this letter came
to me-" she said. extracting from one
of the pigeon holes of her desk letter
from a heart broken wife, whose hap
piness had been secured simply by fol-
lowing the advice given my Mrs. Aver.
In preparing the treatises on health
and beauty, published in her book
Mrs. Aver has considered no difficulty
insurmountable that would contribute
to the success of her work. She
studied for years in the laboratory at
Paris, carried on experiments in her
private laboratory in New York. and
worked out every idea until it was de-
veloped into an indisputable fact
In her book she says Beauty is
the supreme power in woman, and it is
the desire of every woman to be beau
tiful. Plain women are not preferred
by the opposite sex. and the main
flamenco of beauty after maturity
means purity and temperance Age is
a matter of feeling, not years. and if
she would defy the years TO come and
collect interest on her past, she must
remember that Cleanliness is next to
godliness.
These and many other hints Of in
valuable worth to women she relates
in a charming and eloquent manner.

suit Of which was, as the world knows
Waterloo and immortal fame. This
event brought the climax to his honors,
but he had always been a favorite with
the powers that were. In 1909. after
ne had won a victory and fallen back
behind his Entertainments, he was rails
ed to the peerage as Daron Duoro of
Wellesley and Viscount wellington of
Talavera and Somerset. In 1912. after
more victories and four times falling
back, he was made Earl of Wellington,
Spanish Duke of Ciudad Roderigo and
Portuguese Marquis of Torres Vedras.
After he had crushed Marmont. "beat-
ing 10000 men in 40 minutes" and
another retreat, he was made a mar

thanks of parliament and a pension of

neglectful of her heroes, especially the
titled ones, the career of the late com
mander in chief, Field Marshal Wis
count Wolseley, being a conspicuous
case in point. Like his great prede-

The imminent return from South AT
RIGA of Lord Roberts and his recent ap-
pointment as commander in chief OF
the British army have directed atten-
ton anew to the great debt the English
are under to Ireland for some of their
ablest officers in the armies that fight
their wars. 1t is well known that Lit
tie Bobs,' though born in India, had an
Irish father, but it is not so generally
promulgated that the greatest British
commanders who have made their
namss conspicuous in this century own
up to the Emerald Isle as the land of
their birth
GKoing on further back than the first
decade of the century and Selling upon
the name that presents itself most
prominently-that of Wellington-we
find that the succession of eminent r.
ishmen in the British army has re-
manned almost unbroken to the pres
ent time. Among those who have risen
to fame through their deeds of valor
there are at least five who, the English
claim, rank with the worlds greatest
commanders. These are Wellington,
Wolseley, Roberts, White and Kitch-
ener.
1t is far cry back to the days of
Wellington and Bonaparte, but at that
time, when this century was young, it
was feared that the great Napoleon
would certainly become not alone the
conqueror of Europe, but of the world
and for the part the former took in
frustrating the plans of the latter he

country and as such entitled to uni
