THK HERALD. New Manager for New Hotel Broadway 5? The McCarthy Company, owners of New Hotel Broadway, 207 North Broad way, has engaged Mr. Fred George, who resitsned as chief clerk of Tho Westminster to take a position an manager of tho big New Hotel Broad way, built by the McCarthy Company ut a total cost of $250,000, which has recently been newly fitted up and fur nished at a cost of J25.000. The New Hotel Broadway contains 250 rooms, two elevators, steam heating plants and located close to the busi ness center. Mr. George, the new manager, was chief clerk of the Midland Hotel, Kansas City, for several years, and later proprietor of the Washington Ho tel in Kansas City, and has been for yean a close friend of Manager Whltte more of the Alexandria In Los Angeles, and one of the most successful hotel managers In the United States.

CKMI.IAN AND VICTOR DEALERS, 345-347 South Spring Street - Men in the Public Eye MAJOR PEN C. TRUMAN, Los An geles bon vivant, and who in the days following the war was pri vate secretary to President Andrew Johnson, lias been writing for "The Club Woman" a series of articles under the heading "A Disquisition on Female Beauty." in the current number of thai esteemed periodical Major Truman 1..n his respects to British femininity. Invariably gallant where one woman la concerned, the major here proves him self a fearless critic of women —Knglisli Women—ln their collective unlovelliiess. "There la little striking beauty of female face and form In England," writes this American Paris. "There are few neat, tidy-appearing figures, and fewer really pink and white complex ions, nut what these women lack in feminine grace and loveliness they make up in healthful redness, round ness and rotundity of flesh and limb." Surely this last, which the major seems to urge as an extenuating coun ter-irritant, is the most unklndest cut of all. Just think of It! "Healthful redness, roundness and rotundity of Ilesh and limb!" Such charms would start tho average American woman to rolling madly in an effort to dissipate that "roundness" and "rotundity." But the major is not yet content. Listen to this: The English woman, he says, has "monstrous feet and undignified ankles and insteps"; she has "ugly angulari ties rather than soft womanhood and grace." After this the major declares, In all BUrtrtUWIMS, that th» English woman Is to be praised for that she passes only ten minutes daily before her mirror, as compared with twenty minutes for the German and Italian, forty minutes for the French and Span ish, and from fifty minutes to an hour for the American. To the careful reader, who has re tained In his mind's eyo the major's eomphohenslve word picture, this ab stemiousness on the part of Hrltannla's daughters would seem to be born of wisdom and an estheticlsm rather dis cretionary than laudatory. Senator Boles Penrose of Pennsylva nia Is the biggest man in the senate— physically. He's not the big noise, though. On the contrary, his is the still, small voice which seldom cries out even in the wilderness. There's a superstition to the effect that the owl Is a wise old bird. Perhaps he is. No body, you see, knows to the contrary, because of the night-fowl's extreme taciturnity. Penrose is like that. Tu multuous thoughts may swell and throb behind that aristocratic brofv, but if so nobody ever hears about it. Of course Penrose knows, but Penrose isn't talk ing—not for publication, anyway. The senator from tho place where they Invented keystones has held hla job now for three terms*. He learned politics under the state's late master, ments of New Hotel Broadway planned, including in the near future another addition of 100 rooms connecting with the present hotel and running through to Hill street, between Court and Temple streets on property owned by it; also fitting up a new office for the hotel in one of the stores of the build ing and later opening a cafe, which will be opposite the new Hall of Records and Court House. In speaking of his new position as manager Mr. George said to a Herald reporter: "I feel that I have the mak ing of one of tho best popular priced hotels In Los Angeles. "The McCarthy Company has given me a free hand to improve this fine property In any way I may see fit to foster the business it already controls and to Increase its patronage and pop ularity, and I expect to do my part in making New Hotel Broadway an at tractive hostelry for permanent guests as well as transient and tourist guests and the traveling public. "I will of course appreciate particu larly a call from my old friends and acquaintances, and will bo glad to do my utmost for the comfort of all guests." LOS ANGELES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING, MAY L 5, 1010. Matthew Stanley Quay, and he proved an apt pupil. He's an aristocrat horn, a native of Philadelphia and a liar yard graduate. He can say nothing In more different languages, dead and alive, than any other man In Wash ington. Hailing fr»m Pennsylvania and hold- Ing: hit Job without having been bucked off once In a decade and a half, it fol lows that Penrose Is an organization man. Re's a tractable little brother to the senator from Rhode Island, and he's never given that same senator a snigle minute's uneasiness since the day he unpacked his portmanteau and was assigned to a bench among the politi cally elect. Aldrlch always can count upon Penrose. He doesn't have to aak; he knows. In this connection they tell a little story in Washington, a tale that illus trates the Fennsylvanlan's devotion to the Aldrlch idea. "Penrose," said a friend, "why don't you marry?" Penrose meditated. "Think It would be a good thing?" he asked. The friend did. , "All right," Bald Pen rose. "You tell the organization to pick out the girl. I'll marry anyone they select." Probably you never have heard of a Httle place in Pennsylvania which fig ures on the time table of a certain railroad as Franklin. It's almost a cinch bet that you never heard of Franklin, but you're going to. Old Joe Sibley's started out to make the | town famous by getting himself elected to congress from the Twenty-eighth Pennsylvania district. Old Joe lives In Franklin,, and where he puts in two licks for Joe Sibley he puts in another one for the town of his nativity—all of which is commendably patriotic and laudable. Sibley opened his campaign a few days ago with the issuance of one of the most remarkable feuilltuns in the history of American political strife. You see, old Joe Is an outlander —politically speaking, of course. The Twenty-eighth already has a congress man, and he's pretty well satisfied with his Job, thank you. His name is Nelson P. Wheeler. He's not so big a man, of course, as that other" Nelson, from another state, in the other house; but he thinks he's big enough not to rattle around much in the limited confines of the Twenty-eighth district. Therefore, when he found that old Joe was Jump ing his fences and tramping down his I crops he waited a lot of wroth and de- I veloped a life-sized, name-blown-in the-bottle peeve. What's more, he said a few things and did a few things in the way of fence repairing. Then old Joe got busy also, and Issued his letter in which he accused Wheeler of having set aside a corruption fund of $100,000 to secure his re-election. Further, he said the congressman had bought the services of "some of the most unprincipled and degraded news paper men that have ever disgraced the commonwealth." Then came the keynote of the Sibley campaign. The letter closed with a direct appeal to the farm vote, old Joe explaining that in his life time he has sold 000,000 worth of horses and never has "cheated" a single man, either In a sale or a trade. He's no David Harum, is old Joe, as you may see by his letter. Perhaps he wouldn't make such a bad congressman after all. Remember Horace Fletcher? He's the apostle of mastication, is Horace. lies talked mastication so long and with such strenuous emphasis that he's given a new word to the dictionary people. To fletchorlze now means to masticate fond thoroughly. Mr. Fletch er would have us all emulate the dental activity of the rumlnatory and out wardly placid cow. He says If we don't do It the merry little bacteria are going to get us good and hard. Recently in a public address Dr. Hor ace Fletcher drew a fearsome portrait of a toothless race, compelled to take its nutriment in liquid or concentrated form, merely because It had lost, through disuse, the means to prepare ordinary food for assimilation In the ordinary way. Man should have thirty two perfect teeth, he explained, but not one man In a thousand has 'em. The cliff dwellers, "he added, didn't use tooth-brushes and never indulged in dentirrices. They used their teeth and they kept them. Some of the exhumed skulls show all the thirty-two In a state of complete preservation to this day. It's the bacteria that make the trou ble. Fletcher doesn't explain—at least he didn't up<jn this occasion—how mas tication is going to remedy matters. Of course it can't be possible that he thinks those bacteria can be masticated out of existence, chewed to a pulp, so to speak. Of course not. M. Emile Faguet—if you do not know your French you can pronounce that name any way you please with the ab solute certainty that you're pronounc ing it wrong—M. Emile Faguet has just made a remarkable proposal, a proposal that has set all literary Paris to talk- Ing. M. Faguet, it may as well be ex plained, is a member of the Academic Francaise; he's one of the Forty Im mortals. Another one of the "Immor tals" having taken on immortality re cently, they called a meeting of the academy to choose his successor. M. Rene Dominic was elected to the va cancy, and it was at the meeting con vened for the purpose of that election that M Emlle Faguet Jumped into the spotlight with his amazing proposal. His idea, clearly expressed and with out reservation, was that women should be admitted into the company of tho Immortals. Therefore Paris gasped, and therefore the Paris Matin instituted a straw ballot on the momentous ques tion among the Immortals themselves, a ballot whtsh revealed thirteen out of the immortal forty to be partisans of the woman Idea. Among tho equal op portunists was found M. Paul Hervieu, several of whose plays have been shown in Los Angeles by Olga Nethersole. Seemingly the time isn't ripe yet. The thirteen —unlucky number —are in a minority, but It is a surprisingly act ive minority. Being a close corpora tion, with the power vested In them selves to keep their ranks numerically Intact, the Immortals naturally are conservative. But there is always an otther day. Toujours. and perhaps, as the Parisians are so fond of saying, toujours la femme.

SOMETHING ABOUT HER HAS Mrs. Humphrey Ward been drawing from life in her latest novel known In England as "The <'anadian Born" and In Canada as "Lady Merton, Colonist?" UP in Ot tawa they think so, mid they assert confidently that W. U Mackenzie King, dominion minister of labor, posed un consciously for the principal character In the book. Mrs. Ward first met the Canadian when, some years ago, he had a travel ing fellowship from Harvard univer sity and was In Kngland. Then, when she went to Canada on the trip thai in spired the story, Mr. King gave a t ■ for the eminent writer. The book Is called "Lady Merlon. Colonist," in Canada in compliance with thH requirement of the Canadian copyright laws that books Written in England hear a different title in Can ada. It deals with a trip over the Can adlan Pacific railway of a titled Eng lishwoman of wealth, a widow, with her brother, a semi-invalid. They travel In a private car, and where the line Is blocked she meets a young Can adlan, George Anderson, in the employ of the Canadian Pacific railway, who has all the physical and mental at tributes that a her/) should have in a new country and who eventually saves her brother's life. GPeorge Anderson is a westerner. Therein the character bears no similar ity t,. Mr, King, <■'•■■ Is from Toronto Mrs. Ward gives Anderson a pioneer grandfather. Mr. King is a grandson on his mother's side of William Lyon Mackenzie, who led the revolution of 1837. The hero of the novel is about to run for parliament, with assurance of suc cess arising from successfully averting for the railroad company a strike which would have caused much financial loss and industrial suffering, lit. King got his foothold for a rapid rise In Can adian public life by settling a serious coal miners' strike in bethbridge. There are other points of simlliarity as well, and so all Ottawa is convinced that King is indeed Anderson. Of i our.se they regard the "love element' in the story as fiction, for Mr. King is still a bachelor. Mrs. Gertrude Atherton, who, on oc tjasion, has written most charmingly of love, does not herself believe in the tender passion. She confesses as much In a recent article In Harper's Bazaar on "Love's Illusions." Mrs. Atherton doesn't think so very highly of men, either. In fact she says that the better young women know men and the more men they know better the less inclined they are to enter into the marriage rela tion. Occasional exceptions she declares to belong to the class of the "undeviat ingly maternal" women, "those in yfhorn love of children is so deeply implanted that no amount of contact (save matri monial) can rub off the masculine halo." It's too bad that Mrs. Atherton should Insist upon that halo. A halo is an awful nuisance to a man. You see, he's got to live up to it Just as though it were blue china. And a man usually doesn't much care about living up to things; he's usually too busy living: down other things. Continuing, Mrs. Atherton writes: "One thing that the generalizers never take into consideration (possibly because they do not know it, and gener ally because they are men or old-fash ioned women) Is tho enormous percent age of non-maternal women. Whether this was the case in ancient times, or whether it is the gradual result of edu cation and leisure, increased Indepen dence and the facilities for knowing men before marriage, I cannot say, but the fact remains that thousands of women that are married ought not to be are the dutiful mothers of children whom they secretly regard as enemies. They have married in their springtime because tradition and youthful instinct The Herald's Exchange Column EXCHANGE WHAT YOU DON'T WANT FOR WHAT YOU DO 10c for Each Advertisement 10c for Each Advertisement THESE ADS MAY BE TELEPHONED IN.

Twenty men yelled at her, two <>r three grabbed at her, and the fat man cried ■Madam, th-that dog Is in-m.id. He m-must be slid. Look at the foam coming from his mouth." "Foam," said the woman, contemptu ously "That's not foam! He Is my dog. That's a i ream puff he was eat tog." Another echo of the recent convention: of the National Hotel Men's association has clattered back to L.03 Angeles from the far east, and like all previous echoes, it Indicate! that the meeting in , the opinion of eastern guests was at least not ■ frost from beginning to end. John 8, Mitchell, manager of the Hoi-; lenneek, and retiring president of the Hanoi itttiun, lias hud a Komi letter from Fred W. Reed, who managed the New York excursion. Among other of his remarks was the following: "In years to come every one or our | party will recall the pleasant memory of our stay in Los Angeles. You cer tainly gave us the lime of our lives, and we are looking forward to the near fu ture when we can In a small way show more substantially our appreciation of your kindnes to us." "Thr political situation in England is serious, but the death of King Edward will not have a dlaaatroua effect upon it." said J. O. Stewart, a wealthy steel and iron manufacturer of London and a director of the Highland railroad. Scotland, who is among the guests of the Angelus. "But both of the great political parties are waiting to se»- what the new king will do. "I think most of the people are begin ning to feel a revulsion against poli tics already, and the demonstrations that the radicals cause is beginning to subside and sounder judgment is pre vailing. "The Unionists are working to estab lish a tariff and the radicals are meet ing them with opposition and have ralMd a hu* and Cry about the increase in the cost of living that the tariff would <-auae. They have gained a ma jority in parliament, but the balance of power is held by the home rule party or Ireland, and they will throw their in fluence to the side that will give them the better bargain. So the country Is watting for the king to show his hand I and the home rulers to enme out." Mr. Stewart is accompanied by Mrs. Stewart, Maj. and Mrs. A. B. Ritchie and Ellis B. Hayman of London. "Give a town a good hotel and it will give the town a good name," says the Christian Science Monitor in an elab orate hotel number recently published. (nothing is more evanescent) suggested it. There was a time, happily passing, when the collocation 'old maid" was almost a term of insult, when it was even a matter of pride to be a young grandmother. There Is no possible doubt that whether women get the vote soon or late, this division of their sex will come early and more early to the conclusion that the less they have to do with love the happier they will be." Just remember that last phrase the next time you read one of Mrs. Ather ton's love scenes.
