fashionable fad of marrying title has
clearly been shown by recent events Miss
Anna Gould is now French countess,
and Miss Mary Letter. our own far-famed
Washington beauty, will soon become the
wife of the Hon. G. Curzon, NJ P, pros
| pective heir to the title OF Lord Scarsdale.
Miss Letters father is millionaire sew
eral times over, and it is not improbable
that as the Hon. Mrs. Curzon Miss Letter
will take with her to England something
like three million of good American dol
lars. Anna Gould's fortune is estimated
TO be fifteen million.
These facts bring up the question with
start ling emph asis-How much money
have titled American girls taken away
with them to foreign shores? A labori-
ously compiled list of all the marriages of
American women to titled men for the past
thirty five years shows that at least two
hundred million have gone away from these
shores in the period. Eighty per cent.
of this is represented in the marriages of
the past six years. This shows how the
habit is growing. The appended list is
the first time that anything OF the kind

verified. 1t speaks for itself:
