This Mrs. Astor died in 1887, and SO
Mrs. William Astor became simply
"Mrs. Aston" and the society head Of the
family. She was Miss Schermerhorn,
daughter of that Abraham Schermer-
horn who was worth a million or two
and therefore great in his day, though at
present he would not be counted as 'sin
it, among the rich. The new "Mrs.
Aston" is conspicuously qualified for a
social leader. Her mansion on the
avenue and her country places, her par
lors, and more than all her famous Paris
dresses, which the cruel customs officers
seized and sold-are they not celebrated
in all the papers?
Her four daughters were all beautiful,
and Augusta, the third, was the most
beautiful of the lot. Ten years ago she
married Mr. J. Coleman Drayton, of the
noted Drayton family in Philadelphia,
and they have three children. sIncom-
patibi1ity" developed, she made a friend
of Mr.. Borrowe, and now she is in ''re-
treat near London, her children are
with her husbands friends in Wales,
and Mr.. Drayton is seeking an oppor-
tunity to shed some of Mr.. Borrowers
blood.

THE AsToR SENSATION.

Something About the Noted Family
Now Unpleasantly Prominent,
ga scandal in the .Astor family? Inn.
possiblei They have their faults of course,
but as to question about their women
why, they simply aren't assailable!"
Such was the exclamation among the
Four Hundred and of many others; but
the report proved to be true. Not only
is an Astor accused, but she is the CEN
ter of the center group, and almost the
social head of the family. She is now
Mrs. j. Coleman Drayton, and her hus.
band is eager to shoot or slash Mr.. Alsop
Borrowe on her account.
The Astors are American nobility, it
there is such thing-that is, the wealth
has been in the family now four genera
tons, culture has done its prettiest fol-
them, and every scion of the family
has married in their own rank. There
have been no mesalliances. The original
John Jacob Astor founded the family,
as every one knows. He was born at
Waldorf, Switzerland, in 1858, and died
at New York in 164s. He founded tn.
Astor library and several other things,
and left $so,ooo,O 900 to his oldest son,
William Backhouse Astor. William B.
died in 1875, aged eighty-three, and after
the muni6cent provisions for all the
kindred and many charities were carried
out, there was still at least $50, 900
to divide between his two SONS, John
Jacob and William.
At this stage nice distinctions became
necessary, for old John Jacobs other
grandchildren live in New York; sosby
common consent John Jacob Astor be-
came the head of the family and his wife
the very head Of the heads and cream OF
the cream of New York society. She
alone was Mrs. Astor." All the others
had to put their initials on their cards.
She was originally Miss Augusta Gibbes,
of Savannah, and her only child is the
Hon. William Waldorf Astor, who has
done something in literature and diplo
macy, ran once for congress from New
York city and was turned down SO
beautifully that the ward heelers have
not got done laughing about it yet.

The Cotton Picker.

A hundred per cent month seems like a
big interest, but if the men who furnished
the money originally to Prof. Bell to
place his telephone on the market had
loaned it at one hundred per cent month,
their profits to this day would not have
been half those actually realized from
their investment in the stock of the COM
pany. The enterprise turned out to be
one capable of earning profits which not
the most sagacious could have foretold.
The invention was one which occupied a
field until then untried, and the extent to
which the public would wish to utilize it
and paw for its use could have been but
pure guesswork in advance of its actual
Introduction. No data were at hand, no
figures, no information, no facts. That it
would be profitable many people thought,
how profitable, none could venture to
guess. From the nature of the case, only
after offering the invention to the public
and observing to what extent they availed
themselves Of its advantages, could any
accurate estimate of the profits be made,
nor. indeed, could it be positively known
that there would be any profits.
The Cotton Picking Machine does not
enter upon new field in this sense at all.
1t does not, like the telephone, create
want to satisfy. On the contrary, it salts
fies one existing. For years the cotton
raisers of the South, crushed and almost
annihilated by the methods of harvesting
by the unaided fingers of the negro,
have expected, or hoped for, or dreamt
of, this relief. 1t has come, and one has
only to pick up Southern newspaper
with reference to the machine to learn
with what joyous hosannas its coming is
hailed.
1t can, therefore, be known beforehand
Just what the demand will be for the Lone
Star Cotton Picking Machine. This
demand will be for just the number
required to harvest the 100000 bales,
produced annually.
The earnings of each machine for the
company at royalty of "a bale are
known beforehand, and the company's
profits and the eventual value of its shares
are mere matters of calculation. tits safe
to say that this company will develop an
earning capacity equalled by no industrial
enterprise of this century, and that its
shares will acquire corresponding value at
an early day. The Cotton Picking Machine
is in operation daily at the company's
office, 81 Milk Street, Boston, Mass, where
stock in single $40 shares or in blocks to
suit can be now purchased.

Upon the admission of Vermont as the

Susan was their second child. She

The school house was an old log cabin,

She gained livelihood by making
clothes for the soldiers of the war of
1919, which was then in progress. In
