"There is no more difficult lesson for a woman to learn than that of learning how to forget that she has been beauti ful," writes a clever English woman. "One afternoon I saw Queen Alex andra driving slowly in her open motor through the gates at Hyde Park cor ner. For the first time it occurred to ine t"t this rarely lovely, queen is now nn olu woman nenrlng four-score years (if nge, Perhaps she had forgotten to be alert, as is her usual custom, or per hups the, heat of the day had fatigued her. But at any rate there was a touch of tragedy In the thought that Queen Alexandra Is learning slowly, jbut surely, that extreme beauty can fade although the charm of person ality can challenge the attack of time. "I fancy it must have been the queen (mother's costume that brought this lldea most surely before me. She was jwearing a mantle or cloak made of some material In chude of iridescent blue spangles with a close frilling of black lace all round the edge. Her hat jor bonnet was of the usual royal shape land built of Jetted stuff to match her cloak, with a small white aigrette standing erect In front. "Under ordinary circumstances one Jwould regard this quaint nineteenth century toilet of the queen mother's as a characteristic conventionality, but somehow on this Bunny afternoon It .represented to me a sacrifice to the inevitable."

Hospital Assistant, Threatening to Cook Alive One Patient to Obtain Grease, Reduces Sick Call. Stories of how to outwit Impostors who report sick In order to loaf in hos pitals are among the oldest traditions of the medical branches of all airies, says a writer in a medical journal. A fourteenth-century collection of anec dotes shows that the malignerer was known In those days and Cardinal de Barl, who had a hospital at Verceil, found its resources were being ex hausted by men of this type. He sent one of his subordinates to investigate. This man, Petrillo by name, who was something of a humorist, dressed him self, in the robes of a physician and assembled all the patients for an ex amination of their wounds. Then he gravely said: "There is clearly but one remedy needed for the cure of ulcers of this character, and that Is an ointment made of human grease. This very day I Intend, In consequence, to draw by lot one from among you, who will be plunged alive into boiling wa ter and cooked for the salvation of all." Seized by fear, all the patients made haste to report themselves fully recovered from their ulcers, and con sequently there was room In the hos pital for those who really needed care. Physicians today, by the use of sim ilar ruses, have discovered many "hos pital slackers." CONSTIPATION IS A FEALTY OF AGE Nothing i so essential to health in advancing age a free dom and normal activity of the bowels. It makes one feel younger and fresher, and fore stalls colds, piles, fevers, and other dependent ills. Cathartics and purgatives are violent and drastic in action and should be avoided. A mild, ef fective laxative, recommended by physicians end thousands who have used it, is far preferable. This is the combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin sold by druggists under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It costs only fifty cents a bottle; a trial bott!e, free of charge, can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 456 Washington St, Monticello, Illinois. Advertising?
