For some time the main topic Of con-
versation among New Workers and
Londoners who are high up in social
life, and among many who are not, but
who would give a great deal to be,
has been the reign of Mrs. John Jacob

what some Of the best-born women in
England have never done-the priv
Ilege Of entertaining his majesty the
King. She has all that can be desired
in the social world; there IL nothing

In the drawing-rooms Of London the
name Of Mrs. Aston has been on every
lip. No American woman has ever
done In one season what Mrs. Astor
has done. They have become well
known, popular and have even
achieved the acme Of success, but II
has taken years where it took Mrs
Astor weeks.
Undoubtedly there are very few
, women in society who possess the
beauty of Mrs. John Jacob Aston. She
Is tall and willowy, with masses o.
soft, curling hair slightly tinged witt

EVILS OF INSURANCE.
Regulation by Government Only Means
of Graduating Them

Regulation by Government only means
of EradicatinW Them
The boards Of life insurance compa-
MES, says Walter Wellman, grow so
big as to offer constant temptations to
Wall street promoters and manipula-
tors. It Is notorious that all the big
companies are allied with this or that
banking or financial circle.
Since life insurance concerns have
grown to such unforeseen proportions,
since they have accumulated gigantic
assets and SURPRISES undreamed or In
the days when they were supposed to
be for life insurance pure and simple
and not for savings deposits, hnancierS
have sought control Of them. The in
vestment power Of these concerns
their ability to purchase in single
year hundreds of millions Of securities
have made them prizes we'll worth
having. This does not necessarily
mean dishonest manipulation. 1t does
not necessarily involve corruption and
extravaganza. One may even admit
that In SOME respects these insurance
banking-speculative combinations helE
the insurance companies. But the gen
eral tendency is bad. 1t diverts life
insurance into a channel 1t should mo-
enter. 1t opens the door to scandals.
Above all, 1t hightens the temptation
to mere plungers and promoters to TAX,
advantage of opportunities to gain con
troll of life insurance societies for thel
own purposes. A mutual compan.
may be captured by circle Of tlnan
ciers by buying up Its controlling o.
flcers, by attaching" them, by givin
them great salaries, by offering Their
opportunities, by making them rict
