everything she does and off the stage
she is even more sparkling and AMI

Dressed in a deep purple satin frOck,
made Chinese fashion. with a mandarin
jacket and a plated skirt. that showed
big dashes of Oriental embroidery, Miss
Reed sat facing the light early in the
morning. as she talked to me in her sit
ting room Now, only really pretty
woman can afford to do that, but Miss
Reed did not have to fear the ordeal of
the searching sunlight. Her skin is
perfect, and her eyes were as bright as
those of a child.
Miss Reed is interesting in almost
everything. and we talked of the Ger
man drama and Yogi breathing, of Poi
ret frocks and modern music, and it
was with much difficulty that l finally
brought her down to the A, b, of
beauty culture.
Isn't it all a matter of common
sense?" said Miss Reed, when l
preached the subject How hygienic
women are getting about such things
One seldom hears of them doing the
ridiculous atrocities that used to be
popular fads and were supposed to
make you beautiful.
"Oh, a. for myself. l try to get a good
deal of sleep and go to bed early. It's
sometimes an advantage to be killed off
before the last act. For two seasons

I suppose that is why my skin is in

how to give a beauty interview
Now, if you were to see my mother
that would be worth While. She knows
forty-two different physical culture eN-
ercises. and she does them every day
She has a beautiful figure, and skin
that is as fresh az mine
But it wasn't of her mother that I'm

CANAL AROUSES
BRITISH LIMOGES
But Cooler Heads Counsel
Peaceful Settlement as They
Shout for War.

LONDON, Sept 2.-British jingoes
are threatening to get busy again. This
time their talk is directed against the
United States not against Germany.
The enactment Of the Panama canal
administration bill by congress against
which England protested on the ground
that it hurt English trade is giving rise
to the war talk" Following the publ
cation in The Daily Mail Of an article
by orman Angel entitled why Not
Fight politicians who seize every OPP
portunity to embarrass the Liberal gov
eminent are urging that further repre-
sensations be made TO Washington.
However, in analyzing the possible
result Of war between Great Britain
and the United States. Angel comes to
the conclusion that England could not
obtain the desired result by fighting. He
declares that the United States inter
nal trade is so great that she has no
need for trade relations with other
countries and that even should the en-
tire North American continent be put
under blockade other countries would
suffer more than the United States.
Wouldn't Menace America.
The point OF his article is that the
United States produces all that she
consumes-or could do So under neces-
sity.
Professional jingoes in communica-
tions to the newspapers. declare that
the members Of the British government
will show an amazing lack Of patriot
ism If they allow the United States
government to carry through its Pan
anna canal program without change.
Cooler heads are counseling peace
ful settlement by means Of The Hague
international court Of arbitration. The
program Of these advocates of pacific
adjustment is to allow the tribunal to
interpret the Hay Pauncefote treaty,
which, England declares, is being vio-
lated by the revocation of tolls for
American coasting ships passing
through the waterway
