GIVING FIRST
 AID TO BEAUTY Dermatologist Tells How She Keeps Women Young THINGS SHE CAN'T HIDE Grand Children Are One of Them, Yet Youthful Looks Can be Preserved. CoIors and Good Groom-
 ing Important
THINGS SHE CAN'T HIDE
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
 That there are women in New York who are growing old there is no doubt, : said a. woman who patches up tired-out beauties; but it is partly the fault or the women themselves. My speciality IS concealing the ravages of time. That 1t is no easy task is obvious. For instance, have patient who has kept her books perfectly Only under the closest inspec- tion can one detect the crows feet. Her age vould be wholly concealed were 1t not for one circumstance. And that is- grandchildren.
 when a woman, I don't care how vouthful she may look has grandchfl- dren, it Is bound to tell against her.
 "She poor woman, realizes it. But being a woman, she will not admit the truth And so she comes to me com paining that I have allowed her beauty to wane.
 And I pay you by the year to keep my face and figure in repair she said to me once.
 But madam, consider the grandchil- dren said I, without them you would pass for a beautiful young matron. With them one must draw conclusions.
 But what am I to do?' she asked
 And then out had to come the blunt truth:
 Grow old Gracefully
 You must learn to grow old grace fully I said. You must cultivate the art of being beautiful though grand mother with a bunch of grandchildren in evidence
 '"The woman gave a deep sigh.
 Only today an old beau said to me: How well you are looking. Tell me the secret of your perpetual youth" And l had to smile and thank him, even though I wanted to annihilate him. It was only another way of saying, You are well preserved for your years
 Well this woman after few ex- periences will find that it is impossible to fool all the public all the time. And then she will come to me and ask how to grow old gracefully.
 Tt is such an easy thing to do once you have made up your mind to 1t. We have now on our list for daily treatment three women who twenty years ago were great beauties. We have fully twice as many more who were leaders because of their good looks rather than because Of great wealth or brains.
 "One of these women Is now nearly 80. Several are more than 70. All the rest are in their late sixties. When you come to think of 1t few women are grand mothers much under 60. "The business of the beauty expert Is

stood on the floor of the demo-
cratic state convention here at
1880 this morning, after his fight
to control his party in Nebraska

adjourned that he expected de-

cession rather than for victory.
1t is the consensus of opinion to-

COLUMBUS, July 27.-Warren
Harding, a regular, was nomi-
mated for governor of Ohio by the
republican state convention here
today.
Only the names of Brown and
Harding were placed formally be-
for the convention. The second
ballot gave Harding 497; Brown
1858; Longworth 166; Garfield 3S,
and Foraker 4.
Harding was nominated on the
third ballot, which resulted as fol-
lows:
Harding, TAG; Longworth, 1876;
Brown, 100; Garfield, 8.
After the result of the ballot
was announced, Harding's nomina-
tion was made unanimous. Francis
w. Treadway was renominated for
lieutenant governor by acclima-
tion.
Harding is editor Of the Marion
Star.
A stand-pat platform was adopt
ed today by the Ohio republicans
without fight. A few scattering
noes" were heard when the viva
voce vote was taken on the report
of the resolutions committee. No
minority report was presented by
the committee. and the stand
patters seemed absolutely in con-
troll.
1t was expected that Congress
man Rowland would present a
minority report, but he failed to
do so. Garfield and Howland con-
ferred this morning. They con-
versed for a short time, but it is
said, reached no understanding
regarding the progressive fight.
Progressive supporters at first ac-
cused Garfield of treason. How
land finally declared he had not
prepared any minority report, and
rushed to the convention hall.
The progressives expected, after
the Dick platform was read. that
Howland would present a minority
report. They were dumbfounded
when Howland refused to present
such a report. The collapse of the
platform fight ended Garfield's g
contest in the convention.
The stand-pat platform endorsed
Taft and the tariff.

LIFE
WITH GAS

Evidently inspired with a
bright and ingenius idea of how
to produce insensibility by the
I"chloroform story" that emanated
from the Fern Hill conductor
who "smelled of cloves" the other
night, e. A. Hitchcock of Fern
Hill shuffled off by the asphyxia-
tion route this morning. He had
once tried to die by laudanum
but did not make it.
Hitchcock was of melancholy
turn of mind, about 60 years old
and two years ago tried to end
his life in the Garfield hotel. He
failed and after he had recovered
was sent to the Steilacoom asy-
lum for time. He improved
and came back to town. About
the first of this month he took
the restaurant in the Newsome
employment agency at 1911 Pa
cific avenue.
This morning Newsome found
the room filed with gas and be-
hind the lunch counter Hitchcock
was lying dead.
He had filed off the gas pipe
that furnished the fuel for the
coffee boiler close to the floor,
put his overalls over the end of
the pipe and rammed his head IN
the other end of the leg and was
quietly asphyxiated.
Hitchcock leaves a widow and
two or three children at Fern
Hill.

knocked out the civil service and
that this provision of the charter
was useless therefore.
There was no further discus
sion.
Things were pretty lively at the
improvement league meeting last
night, however. The delegates
seemed to feel that the commits
sion was law unto itself and that
1t was living up to such laws and
regulations as the majority of 1t
wanted and ignoring the rest.
Commissioner Freeland several
weeks ago insisted ON the civil
service and got a resolution
through that the board be ap-
pointed at once. That is the last
done with 1t. Freeland also in
sisted on the publication of the
monthly bulletin and the clerk
was instructed to get 1t out but
he has not yet issued it.
