. WASHINGTON. "Laddie Hoy,"
President Harding's pet Airedale, is
more than Just n pal in leisure hours.
"Laddie Boy" is after a fashion the
president's confidant. Every morning,
when the president leaves the man
Blon proper for the executive offices,
"Laddie lioy" prances uesido hiui and
goes with the president into his pri
vate office and perclies himself quietly
on one of the guest chairs beside the
great mahogany table at which the
president sits.
"Laddie Boy" retains this perch
sometimes more than an hour, jump
Jug down and scampering out into the
gardens behind the White House only
when the hour arrives for the presi-l
'dent's first caller, which is usually
about 10 o'clock. While thus esconced
at the presidential sido "Laddie Boy"
finds t. irksnniA ti normit nnv ntlinr
to watchvjLhe -president at work.
Should Seci'Mary Christian or any of
the other suiiluiimieries of the White
Ifjuse staff enter the rosm during the
early hours he Is greeted by a low.
rumbling growl fromV'Laddle Boy",
which is chocked quickly by the ghost
of a gesture from the president.
At the end of the day, . wjjen the
president retires from the 'executive
offices and heads for the mansioiby
way of the garden-house arcade, lie"' Is
greeted outside his office door by
"Laddie Boy," whose joy at seeing the
president often costs the president the
price of having one suit' of clothes
repaired or cleaned.. Few of the presi
dent's friends are believed to enjoy the
friendship that the president bestows
on his dog.

LONDON, Sept. 23. la. tho cig
arette habit threatening the degener
ation of English womanhood? ,
This question is being debated by
medical authorities of England, who
aro becoming alarmed at the start
ling IncrcuBo in the cigarette habit
among women.
Highly emotional women arc be
coming more and more frequent in
England, and many medical experts
blame the cigarette habit. Thoy
theorize that tho absorption of nico
tine produces a condition cf nervous
distress and that from this there pro
ceed palpitations and exhaustion,
with frequent outbursts of emotion.
In rare cases this may lead to mon
tnl dieabllity, the doctors eay, and
they point out that woman's delicate
nervous organization is ne t intended
to endure large do3es of nicotine pois
onng and that tho functions of a
mother must bo interfered with when
the smoking habit is indulged in to
excess.
Custom ill-owing
Tho English woman has taken to
the cigarette with a vengeance, and
smoking among women is genoraly
accepted. In fact. English women
laugh nt American ideas and customs
frowning upon tho femalo smoker.
The war is blamed, as usual, many
women arguing that under tho stress
of war thoy had to find rellof for
their frayed nerves, and they took to
cigarettes. The flual result has been
that English women now smoko in all
public places with perfect propriety.
It Is quite the thing to see a richly
and handsomely gowned woman Bit
ting in a box at the theater sipping
her after dinner cup of coffee and
puffing away furiously at her cigar
ette. Nor is it unusual to see women
strutting up and down fashionable
Piccadilly smoking like a motor-car
that has been over-oiled.

by discriminating smokers in Amer

in their taste, but. women of England
