Titled Women
Arc Successful in
Trade Ventures
Members of Knglish Nobility
Are Conducting Prcimniaking
Anil Furniture Hio and
Other ltalilifliments.
, ' By HELEN HOFFMAN. ,
London. Nov. J',-Vliile the re
sults of war hae given new ap"l
to many phases it KkkIMi life, none
of thce is causing wider and more
favorable romni'nt than the itcres
that many women of the old nobility
are making of busino venture.
Minv uoinrn whose family line-
?Ke trails bark to the dint past when
knighthood wa in llower bear new
litlc today. 1 hey sic known as
Madame tin or Madame that in
litiMne! circles. The fact that they
at occupied with matters more e
riouhati drawing room small talk,
iflfcrts Hheir high social position ntt
a hit. Many of them still maintain
their lofty position among the elite
of British nobility and at the Eng
lish court.
Mr. Fortesijue, who lia made a
great meres of her small but ele
gant dressmaking shop, is well
known to American. At her home
hire she entertained a bit; number
of the Rotarians at a Riirdcn party
when they were touring England.
She is the wife of the king's librar
ian and a noted historian.
Succeeds as Pa.'nter.
Lady Eileen Ordc, daughter of the
duke of Wellington, i another who
has taken up the serious life. Her
husband, who is an artist,- has a
studio in Faris, and there she fol
lows the artistic life as well. She
has made a great success of hand
painted gowns. The painting is
done on chiffons largely, and the
best effects are obtained from white.
The designs represent old flowers of
dainty shading and coloring.
The countess of Derby, wife of
the former British ambassador to
France, has gone in for poultry'
raising on a large scale, as have
many other women of title and so
cial distinction.
Society was surprised a few weeks
ago when it became known that
Mrs. Romilly, sister of Mrs. Win
ston Churchill and wife of Lieut.
Col. Bertram Romilly, had opened a
hat shop in the fashionable shopping
section ot .Maytair.
Works at Dressmaking. '
Many women of society who pos
scssed some artistic talent are just
beginning to realize the value of its
development and encouragement.
While there is a feeling prevalent
among the many that it is bad form
to be idle these days, or occupied
with, nothing more serious than
bridge and balls, the mounting taxation-
imposed here, amounting to al
most one-third of the ordinary in
come, and running into vast sums
for the big incomes, has had telling
effect on the fortunes of many who
were regarded as affluent before the
war descended on Europe. v" .,-
Speaking of the Winston Church-'
ills reminds me that there are other
relations in business. Mrs. Fox Pitt,
a cousin of Winston Churchill, is
doing a thriving dressmaking busi
ness under the name of Elizabeth
Phelps. Her husband is a cousin of
Mrs. Winston Churchill, Mrs. Fox
Pitt says she intends following the
example set by other society women
of England recently, and 'is leaving
shortly for a, tour off America.,
Conduct Furniture Shops. -
: While a number of titled women
of less social renown than these
mentioned here are engaged in dress
making or millinery business' to add
to the family income, -a number of
society women , have gone in for
other lines of trade. An antique
furniture shop claims .. the attention
of Mrs. Methuen, daughter-in-law of
'Jford Methuen. Lady Bentinck, wife
of Lord Henry Cavendish, a half-
brother of the present duke ot Port
land, and connected with some of
the proudest and oldest families of
England, has felt the call of business
and, like many of her titled sisters,
has opened a small furniture shop.
One of the: most distinguished
members of not only English but a
broader European society who has
to a certain degree Substituted so
ciety for business is Mrs. Rodd, wife
of Sir James R.' Rodd. who has had
a long and Tionorable diplomatic
career, having at one time served as
the councillor o f .the embassy at
Rome, among his many other diplo
matic posts. Mrs. Rodd always has
moved in the highest circles of
fashionable society, but as going Into
business is no longer a novelty here
among society women, no one ap
peared surprised when it was learned
that she was interested in an antique
furniture shop here. '
Aside from actual business ven
tures, many titled women are prov
ing a great success with the pen and
brush, and are turning this talent to
commercial benefit.
Dietary Diseases Most
, Deadly, Asserts Doctor
Columbus, Nov.' 19. "Nearly all
diseases which take us off before our
;m hav their oricrin ill dietary de-
ficiences," declared Dr. Harvey W. j
Wiley, in an address ncre.
"If we want to build up human
vitality, if we want to resist disease,
if we want to live healthy, useful and
especially, long lives, we should
study carefully that problem which
most nearly affects those things, and
that is food," continued Dr. Wiley.
"By the study of food I do not
mean the traditional study of food,
or what your doctor tells. you, but
what the scientific dietitian tells you.
If we have that kind of advice we
will lay the foundations for that great
work of human uplift, so far as pro
longing human life is concerned,
which will mean so much to the
health and prosperity of the nation."
Fat. New Yorkers in Earnest Race to Reduce
New York. (Special Corropond
nice.) What is the most univerally
popular; topic of conversation today j!
ball? Kailroad ktrikei? The
eallier? None of thee, no matter
how vitally they affect the individual.
Ni. It's teducing. Take any gather
ing of women, some of them either
have reduced, are doing it now, or
ire going to in the near future
(which day may arrivj and may
not). At male gathering, too,
physical fitness is a large part of
their main interest in life.
.Therefore, knowing that no one
wants to be fat who i fat, and no
other wants to be fat who is leaning
in that direction, and knowing fur
thrr that outside of a small minority
with whom fat is an actual disease,
usually an affliction of the thyroid
glands, there is no need of people of
cither ex carrying about extra
weight which dofj nothing to im
prove their hralth and looks and
much to dispel both. Dr. Royal S.
C'opeland, - health- commissioner of
New York, and I have staged a vvar
on the obese goblin.
First Contest in Chicago, 4 -
It came about this wayi'LVvear
ago last spring Health Commissioner'
Dr, John Dill Robertson , and I
staged such a war in Chicago. He
took 25 women and I took 25 men
and for a mouth we carried on a
contest the result of which proved
that even in one month's time many,
many pounds, may be removed from
tne person ot- a number of people
wittt comparative .ease and extreme
comfort and joy to. the reduced one,
In case any donbtincr'Thomas who
reads this about the men being as in
tcrested as women in the abosorbing
work of remodeling overweighted
frames, let me say in that contest the
men came off victorious with a total
male loss of flesh of 268J4 pounds, as
agiinst 127H pounds loss among
the women, or an average loss per
male of 13 and a fraction, as against
1U and a traction pounds per woman.
Since that contest requests have
come to me. from all over for the
staging of another battle. Which
brought me to New York, where the
health commiss:oner has entered 50
women against 50 men under my di
rection and an extremely lively race
for honors and weight loss is prom
ised. I wanted to see if people in
the east were not as vitally interested
in this absorbing subject as those in
the west. I find they are, indeed.
Recruits Storm Office.
. Following the announcement with
request for recruits on both sides in
the Daily News of New York, the of'
fices set aside for registration were
mobbed with heavyweights register
ing around, oyer, and. above the W
mark. . ,
- Policemen had to. be called in to
quell what looked like a riot. It was
heartbreaking not tV be able to take
every applicant. They begged and
pleaded to enter, but even though we
had secured Philadelphia Jack
O'Brien's institute in the Madison
Garden, a huge place of its" kind, we
could not accommodate properly nor
give personal attention to more than
the 50 applicants on each side. ..
"I've simply got to get into this
class," pleaded a girl who would
have been a beauty but for her ex
cess 40 pounds. "I can't get a job
as a model any more."
Love Is Fading.
"I've KOt to jret in," said another.
"My husband is kicking all the time
about how fat I'm getting. I
weighed only 122 when I was mar
ried, and he doesn t love me ntce ne
used to." .
"A heavy fellow doesn't stand a
good chance at a job these days," a
247-pound male .urged in his own
cause. "I go looking and employers
tell me I can't work as well as a fel-

has recommended that a corps oj

Oyster-Toting Mare
Splashes Into Harbor
Baltimore, Nov. 19. Old Nell, the
oyster-totin horse and the pride ot
Yn'W street, walked into the harbor
at the Baltimore Canning company's
landing and was nearly drowned.
. She and her wagon were standing
on the dock near the oyster boat
Bertie, taking on a load. Jack Ander
son, her negro driver, who swears at
and by Nell and says she's the one
horse in Baltimore that can eat an
oyster without sprinkling hay all
over it, was putting the oysters on
the wagon.
Nell stepped out a little too far
(being too blind to know how far),
and first thing she knew she was
overboard and the wagon with her.
Nell trod water with all four ieet.
Paralysis knocked the oyster in
dustry cold as men came running to
fish Nellie out. Fifty men might
have pulled her out by the tail, but
she didn't have enough tail. So
they sent for the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
shouting encouragingly at Nellie un
til those experts came and rescued
her. That night she had a straw
bed twice as thick as usual and a
doctor and a lot of prescription for
horse hooch. .
Girls in Knickerbockers
Almost Mobbed by Crowd
Atlantic City, Nov. 19. Two
young women, who sought to give
the board walk a thrill by appear
ing among the promenaders .in1
knickerbockers, were forced to call
an officer to escort them to a taxi
cab to escape being mobbed by the
amused crowd . that surround 'd
them. .
The knickerbockcr pair, wearing
long capes, removed their outer
wraps when they reached the cen
tral part of the boardwalk and im
mediately became the center of a
jam of humanity that crushed closer
and closer to them. Frightened, the
girls decided they had enough and
the gallant policeman acted as a buf
fer in getting them clear and down
a side street.

Another man who tipped the beam
at 297 confided that his wife wasn t
the same old girl to htm since fie
took on all this weight.
And so it went, running the gamut
of reasons, some humorous, some
tragic, and all reasonable enough.
For after all you cannot plead much
in favor of obesity, can you?
Good Stunt Anywhere.
Now, if it is popular in New York
and Chicago, it is going to .be equal
ly so in your city; So, why not
get in the game with us. Why don't
you start a reducing contest of your
own? You can get a gym to work
in. Or, if you can't, have some meet
ing place and get an army man to
put you through drills daily say a
20-minute workout. Have a leader
on both sides, one who is interested
in seeing the thing go through and
who will carry it through to. a vic
torious finish. You haven't . any
idea the fun it is. Everybody who
is plump is good natured enough to
enter into the spirit of it. And the
good comes not only from the ac
tual daily exercise and diet, but it
lasts longer. You get into the ex
ercising habit, and consequently you
are pioneering an excellent . health
movement. The contest idea is best,
for any rivalry heightens interest in
a thing, as you know. If you can't
get, 25. women pitted against as many
men take 15 ot 10.
I'll start right in now to give ' youJ
some diets, so you will not lose any
time. If you re in earnest, you can
get' your physical director' right
away, or if you cannot get-one you
can do a certain amount of .exercisr
ing yourself daily say 10 minutes
morning and night.

Radium, King of Cures
There are only two kinds of RA

the power of Energy and to reach
the germ of deep seated, malignant
diseases.
RADIUM SULPHATE cleans out disease

two most difficult of all to cure; all other
affections being easily cleaned out by it.
It is applied one hour each day. Every
phase of the two considered, it is a better
RADIUM than that discovered by Mine.
Curie. It has been proven in this city
that $15 worth of it will cure more and
severer diseases than J60.000 worth of
Mme. Curie's RADIUM discovery at their
respective selling prices; and it is a harm
less, nonsurgical cure for all operable
diseases. It does not waste; guaranteed
to retain its curative properties ten yean.
