The present generatiou_ of Hinoeâ€" uma girls are now turning 25 an ago at which they are losing their prosâ€" pects of marriage. To a Japanese girl marriage is everything: death or reâ€" treat to a convent are the only alterâ€" natives to the vast majority of Hinoeâ€" uma girls. In Japan the years run in cycles. There is the Year of the Horse, folâ€" lowed by the Years of the Sheep, the Rabbit, the Dragon, the Bird, the Dog, the Rat, the Tiger, the Monkey, the Snake, the Boar, and the Cow? Every fifth Horse Year â€" or every sixty yearsâ€"is Hinoeâ€"uma, the myth which condemns the unlucky girls born in it arising from the legend of a Daimyo‘s horse which trampled its mates to death. "Hinoeuma may be superstition, but to me it is real, O cruel society. Others like me are destined to go through the same agony. But there are many other educated young men who would sooner commit suicide than marry a Horso Woman. And there are Many Horse Women who do not commit suicide. "Cruel Society" The present year is the Year of the Horse, hence the reviyal of interest and a new crop of suicides. A girl found on Kamakura Beach, not many yards from the famous huge image of Buddha, had pinned on her kfmono a note which said : A society of youths was recently formed in Tokio to combat this superâ€" stition, and the members of it could think of no better way of giving the lie to the myth than by being happily married. This sort of advertisement is becomâ€" ing more common in the Japanese newspapers. It means that the adverâ€" tiser wants as his spouse a woman who is deceitful and fickle, and who will send him to an early grave. A girl born in the Year of the Horse brings nothing bt woo to her family and her husbandâ€"if she is lucky enough to wed. 1 Superstition _ Attaching _ to Year of Horse to be Combatted Tokio.â€"Marriago, Young Vniversity graduate wishes to marry girl born in the Year of the Hor:e.‘ Doomed at Birth Meeee, "uutP s Yh w Soap Jelly lent way of disâ€" ces of soap which households. of fishing but decided to try his luck.

"Why do you think so*" "She has such a sour looking face." In the case of a female she can only succeed to the throne after all her brothers, but she has a superior right over the brothers of the King. There is also the outstanding inâ€" stance of the eldest son of Prince and Princess Arthur of Connaught. He is strictly a "commoner," although both his parents have royal titles. of the royal house to Windsor and created the alteration in the law by which in future the title of Prince or Princess should only be used by childâ€" ren of the sons of the King. Thus when Princess Mary‘s son was only plain Master George Lascelles he was still in the line of succession, but was not allowed to take on any special title. He is now Viscount Lascelles only by reason of being heir to his father‘s title of Earl of Harewood. Even a Commoner Perhaps the mos\ interesting fact in this connection is that it is now possâ€" ible by Constitutional Law for even a "commoner" to be a potential King or Queen of England in his or her own right. This has only been possible since 1917, when King George by speâ€" cial Proclamation changed the nam» In both the cases of the Duchess of York and Lord Harewood their posiâ€" tion could only be that of Royal Conâ€" sort with no right of any kind perâ€" sonally. * It is in this way that the Princess Mary could only succeed to the throns in the event of the Duke of York‘s family dying without direct issue and both the Duke of Gloucester and Prince George dying childless. It is because of this clause that the birth of any royal baby is of such imâ€" mense importance constitutionaliy. Each such birth creates the possiâ€" bility of this succession branching off at an entirely new tangent. Thus, should the Prince of Wales marry, any and every child of such a union would rank in precedence to every other member of the Royal family. Again should the eldest son of the Prince of Wales marry, it wou!ld be his children, who would once more alter the position and place the reâ€" maining members of the Prince of Wales‘ family several steps away from the throne. There is a good deal of misunder standing as to the position of Prince»s Mary to the throne. Many people «p pear to think that she should come beâ€" fore the Princess Elizabeth. But ac cording to the definite law of succesâ€" sion the right passes to "the heirs and successors." Following the Princess Elizabeth at present in the direct line are the Duke of Gloucester, Prince George, Princess Mary and her eldest son, now the young Viscount Lascelles, in the order given. That is always providiq; of course, that the Prince of Wales does not marry and have a family. That much desired condition of things would, should it happily happen, again divert the line into an entirely new channel. What May Happen Should another daughter be addcd to the family of the Duke and Duchess of York and there be no son, the Prinâ€" cess Elizabeth will remain the direct heiress to the throne in her own right. First, of course, comes the Prince of Wales, As he is unmarried the next in line is the Duke of York. It is here that a very interesting and romantic position arises. For the time being the succession right goes on to the litâ€" tle Princess Elizabeth, but should a son be born to the Duke and Duchess, although he would be younger than the Princess, he would not merely stand before her in the right to the throne, but actually he would exercise the potentiality of diverting the line to an enormous degree, as will be exâ€" plained later. The line of succession to the Crown of Great Britain at the present moâ€" ment can be explained very clearly. Actually the whole issue is clearly defined in the British Constitutional law of succession, but few seem to know how this would work out in actuality, It is opportune therefore at this inâ€" teresting time to make the position clear. just now as to the possible personality of Britain‘s future ruler.
