invited cartoonist Giles to start off the year with a comment on the topic that fas- cinates every woman: Which is the Tire-
some Age?
Giles has a theory about it. You're al- ways at the tiresome age to your friends. Look at his picture analysis of the Eight Ages of Womanhood.
He starts at seven and works through to 87. And the moral is that each age is just as tiresome in a different way as the one before.

DATO
The first self-winding Calendar watch on a ball-bearing.
Eterna offers you a self-winding watch of two-fold value not only does it tell you the time, second by second, but it records the dare, day by day. This new Eterna Matic gives final and decisive proof of the exceptional merit of automatic winding on a ball-bearing. The 5 microscopic steel balls in the Eterna ball-bearing are absolutely unbreakable. ● Better mill, instead of wearing out as a "stuff" docs this bearing (which is no bigger than a pin's head) is self-polishing, thus its winding efficiency increases as it works. ● Needless to say, this constant automatic winding of the movement has a decisive influence on the accuracy of the watch and, at the same time, enables it to accumulate power-reserve of 44 hours. This amazing performance has so impressed leading New York reporters that they have spontaneously declared that the „Eterna-Matic "" eliminates", all ̈“previous winding systems.
The Eterna-Matic system of winding on a ball bearing is so highly-perfected that it has enabled Elerna to construct the world's smaller waterproof self-winding watch the ladies" Eteras-Matic.
