The use of a small proportion Of

A small private hotel for babies is
the latest idea Of domestic life. The

The baby's hotel or boarding house

THIS A "WoMAN'S COUNTRY"
English Writer Gives an Interesting
Impression OF Her Sister over
Hr the Seas.

AS an English woman who went

making friends, East, West, South and
North, / ought to be able to contrast
the women of the two countries, but
the more one travels the more one re-
allies that folks Is just folks" all the
world over.
American women are quicker at the
pptake as regards friendliness and
k~indnesses; but the tongue-tied Eng
hsh do Just ns much In the long run.
The Americans manpers are more
cosmopolitan, her clothes are better
put on, she has more good stories In
her after-dinncr speeches. But II you
compare corresponding types-as most
travellers omit to do-they are both
the same color under their skin"
America Is a woman's country. The
boy belongs to his mother. and most
women give their own opinions on all
subjects-qulte c~uriously well ex-
pressed-without any suggestion OF
having gone to a man for help.
The Engllshwoman speaks o
shortly and with n suggestion OF hav-
ing asked her husband at home; but

Century by Benvenuto CellinL Leo

artists.
In the Eighteen Century the
Marquise de Pompadour and the

Today, in the Twentieth Century

a woman who was fat and forty,
but not SO fair, entered.
Il raj my hair bobbed and
fluffed all up like Nazimova's, she
told an attendant.
"See. that's Just an example of
what / was telling you" whispered
the woman to whom / was talking.
Some of 'em think hat all they
need to look like some famous wo-
man is to have their hair fixed in a
similar manner. You can't tell 'em
that they'll make themselves look
ridiculous. They'd just get mad and
go TO some other shop to get it done
anyway"
Here's what I heard at another
shop
There's a girl who in here

sp her-baics She has a photograph
of GlorN Swanson, and says she
wants hen wave TO be just like
Gloria's. ME looks in the mirror
and at the photograph TO see that
It's being done hat way"
And at another shop
I'VE have about 20 actors of the
stage and the movies who are regu-
lar patrons. Most of them have
their hair curled but several of
them are having permanent waves
put in their hair. One of thu latter
is one of the best known movie
heroes"
That's interesting stuff. We poor
males may soon be trailing after
screen idols in the matter Of hair

The effect of the movies on cloth

Now Cecil DeAIille has been ap-
preached by the manager of a chain

such an offer it would not be sur
