Women, to be sure, can also be something of a financial drainees- pecially if they have a perfectionist turn of mind, like my friend Mrs. Guinness, who feels that "for a fur coat to look proper, it must be completely new." The quest for youth and beauty is the female way of whiling away time and money slimming expeditions to Main Chance or the Greenhouse, animal-cell injections by Niehans in Switzerland, face liftings by Rees or Converse in New York, and assorted blood aerations, breast shapings, or skin peelings. These cosmetic Sayings leave a woman pretty unsightly...
...Elysee, thinking in characteristically bold strokes about how to end the chaos, Pompidou all but ran the government from an emergency command post set up near his office in the Hotel Matignon. When some Ministers started cracking under the strain (one took to packing a pistol under his coat, another wanted to crush the rebellion in the same way that he had put down Algerian terrorism), Pompidou calmly took over their responsibilities.

But in years of campaigning with Dick, she has developed an easy grace with the voters.

Imagine it: Cahaly was fitted for a top hat and morning coat and Elsie was decked out in peasant costume. The Sheriff of Cambridge County was to open the ceremonies, and the Harvard band was to play. But at 2 a.m. the night before the Big Day, the bird disappeared from the off-campus apartment in which it was residing. No festival. Two graduate students, probably Swarthmore graduates and bitter, who lived upstairs, had casually stolen the bird. Not knowing what to do with it, they handed it over to Alfred E. Vellucci, Cambridge City Councilman, who nabbed prize television...
