AMERICAN GIRLS IN ITALY
One of Most Famous Is Known AS King HumberS Beauti
full Enemy-Beauties Who Wed Italian Mobiles Pay
With Happiness and independence For En-
trance Into AriS0cratic Circles.

Rome, April 2S.-After the first CLAM
our of her new surroundings has worn
off and her title has ceased to be a
novelty, the realization Of high life is
often disillusionment to the American
girl who marries an Italian noble. She
seldom considers beforehand the dow
ager mother-in-law who expects TO dis
cipline her, as q mother, of course, and
who, as long as she lives, is always
the head of her sons family. Then
there is the life of rigid etiquette she
must lead, where all natural impulses
are curbed by conventionality, and
where friends are chosen, not in ac-
cordance with the dictates of her heart.
but according TO the distinctions of
rank.
So it happens that the life of the I'll
lied American woman is as dull-out-
wardly, at least-as that of the Italian
born, and insofar as an outsider can
discover, she has no more influence in
public affairs. OF course, there are
ways and ways of welding influence,
and one hears vaguely of Instances
where the tact of an American wife
has wrought transformations in an
Italian household, but no EXAMPLES are
cited.
For instance, several titled Amer
leans in Rome recently expressed such
interest in the woman question that
they held several meetings in the house
of a friend to discuss the matter, but
when it finally came to the point of
anying themselves openly with the
movement, they all, not a woman eX-
cepted, withdrew.
The Princess Brancacci, the Contessa
Gianotti, the Marchesa Teodoli, the
Contessa di Braggi, the Princess Pogia-
Suasa. the Contessa REESE and the
Marchesa di Spinola are all American
women. and several others of lesser
prominence could be mentioned.
The Princess Brancacci is prominent
in the court circle, and bears the title
of Dame d'Honneur'' to her majesty
Queen Margherita. She was a Miss
Field of New York, and very beautiful
as young girl In middle life she is
still handsome, and has the airs and
manner of a princess born. Her inter-
ests do not extend outside of her fam
lily and the court circle. She is happy

because she champions the cause of
the pope and makes her hostility to the
kings party evident on every possible
occasion. She was Miss Lily Conrad,
and was so beautiful as a young wo-
man that the peasants called her Ma
donna" and used to kneel before her

ticeable, although it is somewhat i'm
paired by ill-health and anxiety. For
her married life has not been all roses
1t was a love match, and, neither side
having the money their position and
ambition demanded, the result has been
a constant straining and Scheming to
make ends meet. A sad case, but not
an unusual one in Roman life. She is
the author of two books, Under Pres
sure" and "Cdndidduccia,' both novels
of Roman life, gracefully written. She
aspires to be a female savante," but
attracts rather because of her social
graceS and accomplishments. Many
stories are told of extremes to which
she has gone in exhibiting her hatred
OF the Whites--the government party.
One day she boosted TO the French am
bassador how often she had refused to
rise in the queens presence. Mad

The Contessa di Brazil is already
we'll known in America from her con-
nection with the Worlds fair and as
one of the ardent promoters of the
universal peace movement. Di Brazil
is neither an old name nor an important
one here in Rome, but the present con-
tessa, through her interest in public
affairs and eloquence on the platforms
Of various women's clubs in America,
has made it, at least, familiar one.
She was a Miss Slocum of New Or
leans, and brought her husband both
wealth and beauty. At her summer
place, Cividale, near Udine, she has
revived the handicraft of lace-making,

duty / shall be branded a deserter-
There is nothing for me TO do but to
go back to my regiment"
Now, look here, my boy" said the
general, you just get right off at the
next station and go back TO your father
and mother, and remain with them I'M
til you are entirely well. 1 will attend
to getting your discharge, and when
you are fit for duty. come to Harris
burg, and / will have some place for
you. By the way, bring your father
along with you; I guess 1 can get
something for him TO do that will pay
him better than farming"
Then followed plans and explanations
until the station was reached, and as
the soldier boy was leaving the train
the general slipped ten-dollar bill
into his hand, saying: Take home to
your mother a nice, warm shawl"
The smart young officer in the rear
had not failed TO take in the situation,
and became exceedingly interested in
the little drama. When, however, the
removal of his overcoat revealed the
generals rank, and later he caught
the sound of his name, his interest
changed to uneasineSS and chagrin.
After the invalided soldier left the
train, he again touched the general on
the shoulder, but this time with quite
different air from his former ag-
gresSiVenesS.
General Couch" said he, will you
allow me to apologize to you?"
For what?" asked the general. II
do not see that you have any occasion"
But l wish to ask you to pardon my
rudeness in demanding my seat"
"Oh, that is all right said the gen.
eral. 1T is not of the slightest conse-
quence. But how long have you been
spand uniform.
"Only since Tuesday, replied the
officer.
Hum said the general. Let me
see. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
Friday-four days. Well, remember,
young man, it takes a puppy nine days
TO get its eyes open"

once beautiful and famous produc-
ton of that part of Italy.
But the really noteworthy exception
among the American women in Rome
is the Contessa REESE, who was Miss
Phelps of New York, and is related to
that entire group of Phelps-StokeS of
America Possessing the breadth of
interest and executive ability of the
most progressive American women,
there is about her the delicate aroma
which clings to the garments of the
true aristocracy, and lends a fine dis
tinction to his or her presence.
Cruelty and unjustly ostracised from
the Roman circle in which she belongs,
because she dared to marry a divorced
man, she has filled her life with wider
and more valuable interests. In these
Count REESE, who is a scholar and a
man of unusual breadth of culture, en-
courages and assists her, and their
home has become the meeting place for
people of ideas. An ethical society was
started through her influence, and for
several years held it's meetings under
her roof; a Young Woman's Christian
Association organized here but recent
~ finds in her an ardent promoter; she
is also much interested in the social
reform work of Father BiXio, which
is something in the nature of a peri
patetic social settlement movement. At
present the young men who are pro-
noting the soup kitchen department
meet with her every week for advice
and assistance. Her home, in the in
teresting old medieval Palazzo Cab
riella, is a treasure house of rare books,
paintings, prints, tapestries and ex-
quisitely carved old furniture. To
mention only one treasure, there are
nineteen of Albrecht Durer's wood cuts,
all splendid first impressions.
The Narchessa di Spinola. whose
name was mentioned before, was a Miss
Page of New York, and is much adj
mired for her beauty and sweet man
ners. The Princess Pogia-Suasa was
Miss Curtis, also of New York, and oc-
cupies the position of Dame d'Hon-
neur" to her majesty. Queen Margher-
ita. Her husband, Prince Pogia-Suasa,
is the syndic Of Rome, which CORE
spends to our position of mayor.
And there are many other American
women bearing Italian titles. In fact,
the number of American girls who have
married foreign titles is so large and
increasing so rapidly that one is forced
to echo the words of a Frenchman who
has written recently on the subject:
American girls have gone daft over
titles. They are the only things they
cannot buy in America, the only things
lacking to their eclat as the real queens
of the world NJ. S. NIXON.

That lay on the worlds dark breast,

And the weary that cried for rest.

THE AVERAGE MAN.

When it comes to a question of trust
ing
Yourself to the risks of the road,
When the thing is the sharing of burd-
ems,
The lifting the heft of the load,
In the hour of peril or trial,
In the hour You meet as you can,
You may safely depend on the wisdom
And skill of the average man.
lis the average man, and no other,
Who does his plain duty each day.
The small thing his wage is for doing,
ON the commonplace bit of the way.
IT'S the average man, God may bless
him.
Who pilots us, still in the van,
Over land, over sea, as we travel.
Just the plain, hardy, average man.
So, on through the DAYS of existence,
All mingling in shadow and shine,
We may count on the every day hero,
Whom happy the gods may divine,
| But who wears the swarth CRIME of his
calling,
And labors and earns as he can,
| And stands at the last with the noble
est,
The commonplace, average man.
