Fron the Philadelphia Daily Erenfn0 Telegraph.
PARIS. Sept. ll.-Psris has just been edited
by a work streating OF the life and proceedings
OF a lady OF the sixteenth century, who carried
her care for her beauty to the very utmost
limits. This is not fairy tale, but sober, his
torical fact. backed by many official documents
OF undoubted authenticity, and the lady's amia-
BILE weakness Is described with wealth of de-
tail and forcible simplicity OF description that is
apt 10 turn the reader sick.
The lady in question was named Elizabeth
Bathory, C0mtesse Nadasdy, who married at
the age of 10. in 1895, COmte Francois Nadas-
dy whO was not OF too mild nature himself
as. when his wife complained one day that her
maid had been tmperttnent, he ordered the
erring handmaidsn stripped. smesred with
honey, and laid on wasps nest. from the effects
OF which gentle admonition she subsequently
died The Countess Elizabeth was left "a widow
in 1904 and began simply at first to try To keep
qp the rigorous discipline enforced by her late
husband Cnhappily, one day she struck her
waiting maid. and so wounded her that her mis-
tress' hands were covered with blood. When
her hands were whittier and the skin more supple
and firm, and thenceforward her naturally cruel
tain her waning beauty al any price.
Odd though II may seem IA the present day,
she used as a cosmetic from that time on a bath
her complexion cannot be imagined. She mur;
dered all her waiting maids. one by one, aided
by three accomplices. her old nurse being one Of
them, and when she could get no women TO
enter her service she cooly sent her emissarIes
10 kidnap the peasant girls OF the ueighbOrhOod.
Al last however, the CHASTITY scandal rose 70
such a pitch that even Hungary in the middle
ages could not afford 10 close its ears 10 the wall
OF bereayed families; and the Culprits first
cousin. Governor OF the province, entered the
castle on Christmas eve, 1910, 10 inquire into the
truth Of these horrible stories and discovered his
fair and hOnOred relative, her fair chin prUpped
by her exquisite hand, calmly watching the
death agunles OF three girls, while her attend
ants were filling bath with the life blood that
was 10 preserve her beauty. The Countess
herself was too great a parsonage TO incur capi-
tai punishment, but for thirty years she was
shut up in solitary confinement IN the castle OF
Cseibhe, In Hungary, where she finally starved
herself to death. As for her aCcomplices, they
hal their hands cut of and were subsequently
burned at the STAKE, as being common people,
there was no reason for sparing their lives.
IL Is said that this fair dame sacrificed 800
girls to her radiance OF skin, but the biOgrapher
states sobeTly that documentary evidence exists
Of the murder Of only 25O. Whether In after ears
she considered thirty years Of solitary conhne-
ment too high price 70 pay for siI yeaTs Of un-
