WOMEN SHAKE OFF YEARS.
King Georges Reign to Be Memor'

Correspoudence Of The Star.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
LONDON, August 81. 1912.
King Georges reign. according to one
Of the court physicians, who unfolds his
views in a morning newspaper. will be
memorable for the cult Of youth. Old
ladies are practically unknown in modern
society, because society women are shak-
ing off their years. Hence there are
grandmothers with as much go as
their youngest descendants. The medical
man attributes these evergreens to the
craze for simple living that the passion
for youth has engendered. Early hours
are coming back. At many q stylish din
ner champagne is rivaled by mineral wa
ters. Then, too, Americans coming over
have inculcated the principle of deep
breathing.
Queen Mary's disappointment at not
being able to disqualify the tight skirt
now entering on its third autumn-is
easy to understand She banished 1t COM
pietely from the court. But her influence
on fashion has proved less potent tnan
was prophesied. The queen, il is said,
continues to battle. She intends to or

The biggest school of all schools. says

this man ought to know. for he matricu-

dents for several years. Like many aver
age observers. this pupil. in the begin
ming, had the idea that to pass the exam

that deception was as necessary to poll

But he has at last learned that there

The liar cannot last in the game, he says.
My career and the careers OF all those
men whom ! have seen come and 60
through the halls OF Congress have
taught me that every enduring success,
every real power in public life. has been
based on frankness and truth.
It's a remarkably interesting article
that this political pupil makes for our
next Sunday Magazine. and what makes
il more attractive is that 1t Is all true,
and gives a remarkably clear picture OF
some of the inner workings OF politics

of its machinery, each of which is

Another company manufactures brick

kinds which are beyond the capacity OF

firm has for several years been using
moving pictures to demonstrate its prod

are prepared which can be carried into

the salesman. and if necessary they can
be thrown off against the wall OF the

An automobile company paid out $50. 900

made.
Another firm which manufactures
high-grade tooth brush have films made
in a similar manner showing each detail
from the cleansing Of the bristles to the
packing Of the finished brush In the anti
semitic box in which it is delivered to
the customer. At a recent hygienic ex-
hibit this tooth brush show kept an in

sales of those brushes in that town justi-
fed its cost within the next month.
