equipped, Mrs. Tower prepared to
strive for social success as an American
woman with quite as high a goal in sight
as that which inspired her husband. With
Yankee independence and loyalty, she gave
her hrSt at home to the members of the
American colony. Next came the now

Fast on the heels of her first triumph
came a second. Mrs Tower gave a fete to
which only the uppertendom received invi-
tations. Emperor Wilhelm escorted her to
dinner on his arm. He devoted himself to
her almost exclusively throughout the mar

menu. He had been won by the charm of
his beautiful American hostess into the best
of humor. He strolled contentedly around

social.
Mrs. Henry White, who will succeed Mrs
Meyer In Rome. has perhaps the highest
social position of any American woman In
Europe. She was a fayorite of Queen Vic
torla, and the present King and Queen of
England regard her almost as a member
of the royal family. At the Whites home
Wilton Park, just outside London some of
the most notable entertainments of the past
decade have been held.
1t is unquestionably a fact that at the
present time the American embassies of
Europe are presided over by women whose
charm and tact make them leaders over
all nations In the social life of the capitals
where their husbands are stationed. With
out exception, all have rich husbands and
can spend as they like for their entertain

Humboldt. The fish abound in the stag

collect thirty to forty wild horses and
force them into the pools, and when the fish

appreciated early in her husbands diplo-

Mrs. George Won Lengerke Meyer, wife
of the newly appointed ambassador to St.
Petersburg. is favorably known in every
court in Europe. Her social triumph in
Rome, where her husband was formerly
stationed, was complete. Mrs. Meyer is
the personal friend of Queen Helena of
Italy. Here again is an instance where an
ambassadors wife actually accomplished
more for her country than would have been
possible under the opportunities open to
her husband.
Her entertainments in Rome were on a
lavish scale. Invitations to them were
highly priced. She gathered about her d
circle of influential friends of inestimable
value. Not that the object of Mrs. Meyer,
or of other ambassadors wives, is to cul-
tivate those only who can be used for a
purpose, but with the winning of friends
from the highest motives goes a powerful
influence which may be unhesitatingly en-
ployed when occasion arises.
Mrs. Meyer and her husband soon came
to be received in the inner circles of the
Roman court. While Ambassador Meyer
and King Victor Were companions on boar
to send for Mrs. Meyer. They had many
the quirinal distinctions of rank were for
gotten. 1t was one of these visits that
Mrs. Meyer told the queen that her little
son was an enthusiastic philatelist. Mrs

casual remark. A few days later gorgeous
