QUEEN OF SOCIETY.
Mrs. John Jacob Astor, an American
Woman, the Rage of London.

Mrs. John Jacob Aston, an American
Woman, the Rage of London.
Many Americans, and especially
those who look with longing eyes to-
ward the top round of the social lad
der, are fond of saying in knowing
and rather convincing manner that
Mrs. So and So, wealthy leader in
society, has gained her place "by sheer
charm of manner" and that Mrs.
Blank, multi-millionaire's wife.
holds her envied position in the fash
ionable world simply through "grace
of character" or sweetness of dispOsi-
tion." As matter of fact it often
seems to the everyday, common"
people that character" or personal
ity" has very, very, little to do with
the process of getting into'' society.
Unlimited wealth, the knowledge of
how to spend it and very ordinary
disposition make much more popular
combination among smart" people
than do a manner Charming" "fas-
cinating," sweet" ''lovable," ETC., etc..

ed It, Tor she had not yet made up her
mind AZ to how she would answer him.
Her wish was fulfilled sooner than she
anticipated.
Jack showed her his sketches one after
another, and they were discussed, criti'
cised and replaced. As he put the last
one back into the portfolio he turned and
addressed her abruptly. With such I'M
petuous force did his words flow that
she was compelled to listen to the end.
with regard to my staying here, MISS
Mailing, / did not care to discuss the
matter further before Mrs. Seton at
luncheon; but must do so now"
He drew a deep breath, and clinched
his hand firmly on the back of chair.
Il cannot dare not stay here with
out telling you the truth; for, If allow
my feelings to become any stronger than
they are, and meet disappointment In the
end, I'm afraid shall not be responsible
for my actions. Miss Mailing, | love
you-madly. While l am telling you
this know the chances are that you Will
presently turn your back and say, as you
leave me, Please quit my house at once;'
yet l now tell you, because | cannot
stay in your presence with safety another
hour unless you give me some hope.
have loved you from the moment | woke
and saw you that morning in the wood.
You will say that is not very long; to me
it is lifetime. l never lived until that
moment. l shall never live again if you
send me away"
His face was very pale when he ceased
speaking. Pauline stood near him. the
color coming and going in her cheeks,
her eyes fixed on his face; but she said
never a word. When he spoke again his
words came slowly, hesitatingly. and his
voice had stified sound, as if choked
with despair.
you have no answer for me; but you
do not tell me to leave you! 1t cannot
be that, Pauline; heart of my heart,
queen of my soul, you love me"'
His last words died away to whisper
of intense rapture; and, as Pauline felt
his arms encircle her, his kisses on her
lips, she forgot all the shadows that
lurked in the past, forgot all the ques-
tionable means she had employed to at
tain this end. She only knew that she
loved him with all the force of her ma
ture, that she was loved in return; and
for the moment there was in her heart
as supreme a joy as was ever felt by a
woman.

Ava Willing, beauty of Philadelphia.
She was married to Mr.. Astor in Feb
ruary, 1891.
The first John Jacob Astor was q
financial success of the first rank. In
1889 he was merchant in New York,
who dealt in furs and pianos, certainly
most singular combination. Five
years before that he was a poor immi-
grant working for 50 a week as a de-
livery boy to German baker. In the
course Of time, attaining success as q
merchant, he began to put his money
into land and, his prophesy of the
growth of New York having been veri-
fled, he became wealthy. He was the
richest man in the city and worth the
then fabulous sum of $1,OOO,OOO.
The two present heads Of the Astor
house are William Waldorf, who lives
in England, and John Jacob, OF New
York. To-day the combined Astor es-
tate Is estimated at $45O,OOO,OOO, and
it is said will reach 81, 100000 be-
fore many years pass. William Waldorf
Astor is keen-sighted business man,
prudent and energetic. John Jacob has
been interested in literature and scien-
tif1c subjects, but in real estate matters
he has been quite content to follow
the lead Of his more progressive cou-
sin. The English Astor is worth about
three times as much as John Jacob,
but the latter manages to worry along
somehow on about $1OO,OOO,OOO. The
wealth Of the Astors is in land, and
writer, William s. Bridgman, says
their fortune does not depend, as most
OF the others do to greater or less ex-
tent, upon the life Of any individual
or individuals. Industries may change
and fuctuate, railroads may be injured
by new competition or new inventions.
but nothing can stay the expansion of
the American metropolis; and it can
not expand without paying an ever
greater tribute into the Astor Golfers.

It is curious how the untutored say.

phenomena long before the Swans
Of the civilized community attain an
insight into the same natural causes

cases can assign no definite reason for
his belief, but relies apparently on his
intuition, or, more accurately, his keen
observance of sequence in effect.
In Egypt there are few petroleum
wells and the natives make rude
attempt at distilling the produce to
produce Illuminating oils to be burned
in lamps that are marvels OF simple

modern standards. The oil mace oy

any circumstances and in the ruae

The native, however, is wise beyond
reputation, for If closely questioned
he will reply that he prefers the smoky
native oil to the imported article as
the smoke "drives away the MOSQUE

statement would have been flul'
culed, but to-day, in the flush Oh tn0

Kaiser Races a Train.

The Kaiser's recent journey from
Hanover to Hamburg, a distance OF
about 100 miles, was accomplished in
about three and half hours.
Owing to the rain, the Emperor had
Intended to travel in the royal train,
but the weather becoming fine he ex-
pressed his intention Of making the
journey by motor car in order to enjoy
the beauties Of the Luneburger Heath,
across which he would have to pass.
In the forest the royal train, which
had left Hanover shortly after the
KAISER came in sight.
His majesty Immediately gave or
ders to his chauffeur to quicken speed.
and the motor, a Mercedes car, dashed
forward at the rate of about sixty
miles an hour.
His majesty enjoyed the sensation
immensely, and was anxious to race
the royal train. He had long express
ed desire to see such a race. and had
maintained that on a straight road the
automobile would win. The race was
entered upon with great zest, but ow-
Ing to the curving Of the road had to
be abandoned.
Near Celie the royal car met with
an accident. A loud report was
heard. the automobile staggered, turn
ed, tilted sideways, and almost pitch
ed into the ditch. One Of the tires had
burst

For some time the main topic of con-
versation among New Workers. and
Londoners who are high up in social
life, and among many who are not, but
who would give great deal to be,
has been the reign of Mrs. John Jacob
Astor in London. In single season
this beautiful American has achieved
what some of the best-born women in
England have never done-the priv
ilege of entertaining his majesty the
King. She has all that can be desired
in the social world; there is nothing
more to be had; there are no more
worlds to conquer!
In the drawing-rooms Of London the
name of Mrs. Astor has been on every
lip. No American woman has ever
done in one season what Mrs. Astor
has done. They have become well
known, popular and have even
achieved the acme of success, but 1t
has taken years where it took Mrs.
Astor weeks.
Undoubtedly there are very few
women in society who possess the
beauty of Mrs. John Jacob Aston. She
is tall and willowy, with masses Of
soft, curling hair slightly tinged with
gray. Her chief loneliness lies in her
eyes, which are large and literally
glowing with a clear, soft radiance.
They attract great attention wherever
she goes and give her singularly
naive, artless look. Mrs. Astor's gowns
are part Of her attraction, as she has
made them a study, and some Of her
creations are marvels Of beauty and
richness. The King was heard to re-
mark after having met Mrs. Astor at
a gathering Of social lights, "She Is the
best advertisement Worth ever hadr'
She seldom wears gown more than
twice. Her costumes all come from
gay Paris, and are OF two distinct
styles. In the daytime she is stately
and decidedly "clean CUT in the Eng
lish style of tailor made, but at night
she is a radiant vision OF beauty In
soft, clinging, sweeping frocks and
with her hair falling In loose waves
about her face. She possesses sets Of
jewels to suit each costume which che
wears, whether intended for day or
evening. It Il said that Live and let
i've" Is Mrs. Astor's motto, which sen
timent ought not to be unusual for I
woman whose husband II one Of the
worlds wealthiest men.
