SATISFACTION GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY BACK $ 1 OR IS 112 South Riverside leader of an estimated 40,000, 000 Ismaili Moslems in India, East Africa and Asia. In 1944 she embraced the Mos lem religion and was re christened "Ome Habiba," which is the name of Mahomet's last wife and means in Arabic "Mother of the well-beloved." Went To Mecca Last year the Begum made the difficult and arduous pil grimage to Mecca which each good Moslem is required to make at least once. - Dressed in the cotton gown of the pilgrim, and barefoot as the law requires, she carried out each of the required rites for five blistering days when the temperature never sank below 118 degrees in the shade. The aging Aga Khan never has made the pilgrimage and it seems unlikely his health will permit him to make it now in the prescribed summer season. If the Begum had her way she would spend most of her time in the magnificent villa the Aga Khan has built for her at Cannes, in the hills overlooking the Riviera Cannes. It is called "yakimour'' a contraction of "yaky," the Aga's pet name for his fourth wife, and "amour" the French word for love. The cream-colored house, with its -terraced gardens, its swim ming pool and its period furni ture and works of art, is air conditioned. When she is at horhe, the Be gum rises at 11 a.m. She says the secret of health and beauty is plenty of sleep. She lunches with the Aga and usually, in the early afternoon, the Begum takes a drive at the wheel of her black Citroen, while her husband rests. From time to time she visits an old people's home she has founded or drops in to see re tired artists and other old friends, many of whbm are par tially or wholly supported by her. ' She also is an amateur photog rapher and has recently taken up both sculpture and painting. They Get Around Among the Begum's friends on the Riviera is the Aga Khan's third wife Andree Caron whom he divorced "amicably" in 1943 The Aga Khan 43rd direct descendent of the prophet Mo hammed first married his cou sin Shahar while in his 20's and later repudiated her under Mos lem law. In 1908, he married the Italian dancer Teresa Ma- gliano, mother of the Prince Aly Khan. She died in ; 1926 of a cerebral hemorrhage. The first of May, the couple leaves Cannes for London for the British Derby then 'it is to Paris for the horse racing sea son at Longchamps and Auteuil, a short stay at the fashionable northern bathing resort of -Deau- ville, several weeks in Aix-Les- Bains, where he takes the water cure, and the end of the summer is spent in Switzerland. In September, they return to Yakimour but in November go on to Egypt to spend the winter. They also own stables in three countries, a' suite in the Ritz Hotel in London, a villa at Deauville, and a place just out side Paris. . Her favorite colors . in dress are green, cream and pearl grey and she says simplicity is the key to beauty in dress. She has this advice to offer: "Be simple. Avoid all that strikes the - eye harshly. Wear neutral colors and above all make sure that the cut of whatever- you wear is good this is the secret of real elegance." Her. jewels reportedly are valued at more than $2,857,000 and were the lure of a daring band of robbers in 1949 who held up the Aga anl his wife in their car one night and stole $600,000 worth of jewelry from the Begum, including the fa mous marquise diamond. Most of the jewelry later was mysteriously returned, to the Marseilles police.

Commercial TV Bows in Britain To End Monopoly London (U.R) Commercial television makes its bow in Brit ain tomorrow, and the life of Londoners may never be the same. Advertisements will come into millions of living rooms via the airwaves for the first time in history. The long monopoly on broad casting held by the government run British Broadcasting Corp. will be broken when an, an nouncer smiles into a camera with such words as "Try Ral gex! A solid preparation for re lief of backache, lumbago, stiff neck and rheumatism!" 49 Hours Per Week For better or for worse, the advent of commercial TV will bring Britons an unhead-of 49 hours of television per week, a greater variety of programs and, for the first time, a chance to switch to another channel if one program begins to lag. There will be two channels the old BBC and the new CTV (Commercial TV). Viewers will be able to watch either one with, out an increase in-the annual li cense fee of $8.40 they have been paying for the privilege of watching BBC television. And while commercials will hit the viewers regularly at a maximum of six minutes per hour at no time will the an nouncer say ."and now -a word from our sponsor." Programs will not be 'sponsored in the American sense. Advertisers will buy time for their announcements but the In dependent Television Authority, a government-appointed "Watch dog" committee, will decide where to put the commercials in the broadcasting schedule. The most desirable time slots will be rotated among advertisers. (Cost to advertisers will run from as low as 90 pounds ($252) for a quarter-minute spot an nouncement at 10 a.m. Saturday to 1000 pounds ($2800) per min ute for the peak viewing period between 8 and 9:30 p.m. Satur days and Sundays.
