those Of our generation, To be sure.
there are hundred labor saving de-

them. But In at least two important
respects they had the advantage over
their descendants. They waged no
conflict against dirt such as we carry

spirit which now goes to keeping clean
WAS left to the medieval Lady for other
tasks. Moreover. although her cloth
ing was gorgeous-rich with embroid-
cry and lace, and heavy with jewels
It was not subject to rapid changes Of
fashion. The cut OF sleeve or the
hang Of skirt was settled for tye
years rather than iye months. Life
was then free from the modern terror
OF 'looking like a last years rag bag.

goddesses of the Etherian heavens" Is
the latest addition to the long list Of
London's religious sects, which are

burns his incense stick In more than
one josshouse in the east end, the Ma

his temple, near ST. Georges street
east; the Parsees worship the sun In
bloomsbury, the Mormons have a mis-

OF the metropolis the Buddhists ana
Ancestor Worshlpers perform their
strange rites. OF Christian sects In
London there are at least 800, includ-

maker; the Peculiar People, who pre-
fer prayer to physicians; the sande-
