The TRUE SOCIETY
Defense Of the 400 by a Member Of
Famous Philadelphia
Family.
Miss Sarah Biddle's Letters on the
Real Aristocracy Of
America.

Philadelphia, Sept. 9.--Miss Sarah Bid
die, daughter Of the late Thomas Biddle,
and a member of Philadelphia's famous
family, has written book in defense of
Society
Her book is called Letters Of an Amer
lean, Concerning Love and Other Sub
jects"
The book deals with fashionable life in
New York, Atlantic City and abroad, and
Is good answer to Henry Watterson' s
recent bitter attack on the 400"
Some of the shocking attacks written
nowadays against what is termed the 400,
are most unjust and uncalled, for" says
Miss Biddle. "A member of this sO-called
400, who has the privilege of an entrance
into this charmed circle can say that
there are to be met refined men and
women who abhor coarse notoriety and
ostentatious display Of wealth. They are
people of education and high moral tone.
Among these people one finds the true
gentleman and true lady clinging tena-
ciously and proudly to their ancestry, but
most willing to open their doors TO any
who have earned the right Of entrance
This right is the reward of natural, noble
true-heartedness, a badge Of real gentility
and brains. .-. -,
This is the true 400, and one does not
find drinking to excess, foul speaking, OF
those who simply live for the dollar made
To-day one sees fortunes made in a year
a month, and even in a few days. This
is often done by the quick witted Ameri-
can who leaves himself no time for study
and culture. So he is debarred from thai
class of men and women who have either
inherited from their forefathers the man.

Gated themselves to this point. p T..
mot even the countries of the old world
can show to the world a. ,nobler Or finel
set of men and women than those who
belong in the truest sense of the wore
If one may use such a term in this re-
public, to the aristocracy Of America, a:
ut Is well said that money is the GOO
Of the American people, and for it they
would sell their souls. But whom are
these people made up Of? Not of the
aristocracy of America, composed of the
old families Of the land. Many are newly
risen from no social position at all save
| that of wealth. This is to their credit
when they learn the manners and ways o.
refined society.
In real society one meets quiet, refined
men and women; to know them is priv
lege and an education. Into this domain
no questionable class can enter. The.

England May Abandon Free Trade.

In the current number of the Fort
nightly Review a contributor argues with
much FEASIBILITY that England is about
to abandon free trade He starts out
with the assertion that the public confidence
of England in free trade as a commercial
policy has "evaporated" during the past
thirty years He makes the rather start
ling announcement that the rank
and file of the Conservative party
predominant in influence to degree I'M
precedented in our history is almost to
a man Protectionist; among its leaders
only one retains the reputation of a con-
WINGED free trader"
The change. he says. is not the result
of intellectual conversion, but of the logic
of events specifically the commercial ad-
vonce of the United States and Germany
built up under most vigorous system
of perfection.
The writer is confident of the opin-
ion that If the free trade policy has
not collapsed in England, the develop
ment of China by European capital and
for European trade will strain Il to
the breaking point" He scouts the idea
that England, which has enjoyed prac-
teal trade monopoly in the Far East
VIII meekly consent to the assignment of
the trade of Manchuria to Russia, certain
promising districts of China to Germany
and others to France. while she holds an
open door" in the English sphere" of
the Yang-tse for 1.-THE very nations which
exclude her 10 take their share OF trade,
and for the United States to cut her out
by cheap manufactures poured in from
the convenient Pacific coast."-[ Philadel-

THE GRIP AGAIN
A Simple Suggestion as to How
to Guard Against it and
its After.EffeCts.

Every year upon the approach Of spring
grip seems to make its appearance Once
every few years it spreads and assumes
alarming proportions. From all appear
ances this is one of the years in which it
will seize upon a great number of vic
Tins, for every day new cases are re-
ported both in the east and west.
Like scarlet and typhoid fever, the
after-effects of grip are often worse than
the disease itself. The sufferer is left
with debilitated system, short of breath
upon the slightest exertion, affected by
every change of the weather and in a
physical condition to invite the attack of
the many diseases induced by the incle-
ment weather of early spring.
a timely suggestion as to how to en-
able the system to resist the inroads Of
grip and its after-effects is given in the
