tions, New England climate and Pilgrim Father ancestry. She Is sdescen6ed from George Morton, who came over oa the Mayfiower and wrote the first book con- cerning the Massachusetts colony's his- tory. George Morton's son Nathaniel was secretary of the Colony of Massa- chusetts Bay for forty years, and he, too, wrote history, the New England Memo rial" As showing the lamentable lack of new woman ideas in those days, how- ever, it may be mentioned that this Na- thaniel who wrote history did not teach his own daughter to write, and she af- fixed her mark instead of her name to legal documents still extant. Never mind. Her great-grandniece, Abby, has writ ten enough to make up for all that she did not do in this line.
 The material and outward improvement of the human race primarily through the recognition and development of the mental and spiritual man within is the keynote of Abby Morton Diaz's latter day labor, The drawing to this work Is an in- herited development of the old time New England religious enthusiasm, transmitted through her father, Ichabod Morton. How strange the old Puritan names sound now!
 The Morton family settled in Plymouth town and remained there. Ichabod, father of Abby, was a skilled shipbuilder, so brainy and clever that he superintend- ed the construction of a brig when he was only nineteen. A famous future was before him in those days when American wooden merchant ships ruled the seas. Ichabod went to Boston on business and took a room in a boarding house. One night he walked and found that boarding house room. like the room of Abou Ben Adhem, filled with light, making 1t rich and Nike lily in bloom" Ichabod | Morton believed, his daughter believes. that 1t was supernatural illumination. At the same time there came to him the impression that he was to work no more for mere worldly wealth, but thereafter for the realization of the perfect human race on earth. A vision was given to him of "our world as it would be under the reign of human brotherhood"

 But 1t did not happen. Your dukelet is rich because his grandfather, the first duke, increased his fortune by methods akin to those in vogue among plebeian American money magnets" as they are sometimes called. He knew how to jug gle his income returns with the best of them, that first duke. I have read a letter of his to a newspaper protesting hotly against the wild guesses" as to the amount of his income that were pub lished sometimes. He said report made him out more than twice as rich as he was. But the fact remains that he never would tell exactly how rich he was. -A recent English writer confesses: 'Tn these days there is always something peculiarly fascinating about the possess sion of great wealth." Just so.

handsome and fascinating as your own mother was when she belonged to the Prince of Wales set;" but then you are good looking enough and well dressed enough not to display jealousy toward American ladies. Worst of all. you let your husband display the same rudeness to the sweet American girl when Colonel and Mrs. Cornwallis-W West brought Miss Deacon to the Westminster stand at the races-even though Cornwallis-W is your own brother and a gallant soldier and a gentleman. You are young, but then you are older than your husband, and you ought to have toned him down by this time to observe at least common courtesy and good manners.
 You have much to learn, Shelagh. The sooner you learn 1t the better for your self. Know. first of all, you cannot pos sibly hurt American ladies socially. You are buclxing against the band wagon when you attempt It. Already you begin to get your "comeupance." That ball of yours, which was to be the social event of 1903 and to which you omitted to send invitations to every American woman in London society whom you dared leave out-did you not on that account receive a direct social slap in the face from your king. Albert Edward himself2 He de- clined to attend your ball at all; the Duke and Duchess of Connaught. the kings brother and sister-in-law, also re- fused to attend, and the actual reason was that you had snubbed American la- dies who are the friends of royalty.
 When he was only Prince of Wales. Albert Edward was noted for his tact fulness and genuine kindness of heart. He was too well bred to manifest to- ward persons entitled to respect the rudeness you and your husband were guilty of at the Chester races and your ball. How did you feel when, at that ball, your biggest lion was a young lady who had been an actress on the variety stage? It was nothing against the young lady; quite the contrary. But after all 1t wasn't quite like having the king and the Duke of Connaught among your guests. was 1t?
 The good will Albert Edward showed to Americans socially when he was Prince of Wales he manifests still in the larger national field, and the American people appreciate it.

 You can't do it. Your own kin and fellow countrymen will rise up against you.

 Whether the millionaire American girls did well to take the noblemen is neither here nor there. Considering how women like you have sometimes treated our American ladies when they have thus rescued your Englishmen from the bank ruptcy court, f not worse, 1t would probably been just as we'll if they had stayed on their own side of the water and married just chivalrous, plain Amer ican husbands. But something must per- haps be forgiven to the natural jealousy the attractive American girl arouses in the British feminine breast.
 Or is it because you don't like your brilliant and brainy American sister-in- law, young Cornwallis-W Vests wife, that you thus leap into the arena with a war whoop against all American women?

SIMPLY BREATHE IT.
A Few Minutes Use Of Hyomei Four
Times a Day Cures catarrh.

The pleaSantest, most convenient and
the only scientific method for the
treatment and cure of catarrh is Hy-
omei. Simply put twenty drops of Hy-
omei in the inhaler that comes with
every package and then breathe it for
few minutes four times day.
1t seems remarkable that so simple
a way for treating catarrh will effect a
cure, but the most important discov-
cries of science have always been the
simplest By breathing Hyomei in this
way every particle of air that enters
the air passages of the throat and head
and goes into the lungs, is charged
with a healing balsam that kills the
germs and bacilli of catarrh and
soothes and allays all irritation.
The first days use of Hyomei will
show a decided improvement and in
short time there will be no further
trouble from catarrh. Its action is
rapid and lasting.
You take no risk in buying Hyomei.
A complete outfit costs $1.00 and if
after using you can say that it has not
helped you Percy w. Means and Bow
ditch & Webster will return your
money. What other treatment for ca
tarrh is sold under a guarantee like
this? None other has sufficient merit.
