QUEEN IS NOT FOND OF
AMERICAN SOCIETY
NEW YORK, Aug. 8. —"The English
court is discouraging to Americans."
"The queen is not fond of Ameri
cans."
"Queen Mary desiree to preside over
an old-fashioned, conservative court."
These statements, that will send a
chill down the spines of many a cot
tager at Newport or Bar Harbor and
many a fond society or "subsociety"
mamma whose dearest wish it is to
present her debutante daughter at the
Court of St. James, were made yester
day by Mrs. Algernon Aspinall. who is
stopping at the Vanderbilt hotel.
Mrs. Aspinall, whose husband is sec
retary of the West India commission, is
a noted beauty. She possesses a creamy
satin complexion showing beneath the
soft pink tints of peach-like bloom.
"It is too bad that the queen is not
fond of Americans." she said. "Ameri
cans are so delightful and interesting.
It is true that they are always in a rush,
but that Is what makes them interest
ing to me.
Queen Mary Old Fashioned.
"But the queen wishes to maintain an
English court slow conservative,
everything moving by rule and rote.
Queen Marx is different in temperament
from Queen Alexandra, whom the Eng
lish people fairly idolize. But Queen
Mary, it must be confessed, is old fash
ioned in her notions.

of your society people have remained at
home this season, the English court, to
put it mildly, being just a little bit dis
couraging toward the American who is
not officially represented at court. Os
course, many American women, splen
did women, come within the class that
is officially represented through their
marriage to titled Englishmen. "
Mrs, Aspinall has some decided ideas
on the question of diet and proper
methods of living for women.
"What is your recipe for an attrac
tive complexion?" she was asked.
"What is the secret of the British wom
an's freshness and good looks?”
“Well," volunteered the English beau
ty languidly, "do the things American
women don't do.”
"For instance." she went on. "these
are a few of the enemies to good looks
and the ruination of the American
woman's complexion:
"Too many ice beverages.
"Late hours.
"< werheated houses,
"Too many social engagements.
"< )vei eating.
“Insufficient rest, and relaxation.
"We English women know how to
vest." said Mrs. Aspinall. “And we
don't hurry and fuss over things. The
English people never hurry. I think
the fact that Americans are always in
such a frightful rush and display such
great nervous energy Is what makes
them so fascinating to the slow-going
Englishman."
