Two Titled American Women.

An American father had two
daughters, and when he died he left
each of them large fortune. One
of them said to herself. | like soci
ETY.; | like titles. and as there are
no titles in America, | will cast my
lot in foreign lands As she was
rich and attractive, it was not long
before titled gentlemen from
France offered her his hand in mar.
rage. She accepted. the marriage
ceremony was performed, aud she
went with her titled husband to
Paris. opened up palace, and
went in for all the enjoy meuts Of
French society
We shall not speak of the many
troubles which befell her and the
distress which her titled husband
brought upon herself and members
of her family in America. But
the upshot of it is that the Count
has spent up to this time some
thing like $8.0O0.0O0 of her estate,
and besides has so outraged her
feeling by his attentions to another
woman that she has brought suit
for divorce.
The other daughter said, | love
the simple life best, and | will con-
secrate myself, nv talents, nv
mind, my womanhood and my for
tune to the good of humanity
From that day she has found her
pleasures in doing good. She has
never been ostentatious: she has
never paraded herself before the
public; she has found no time for
the frivolites of society. for she has
been too busy in good works for
such diversions. If she had any
desire for title, save that which
belongs to every true American
woman, the public at least had no
evidence of it, and vet she has IT,
tie. She is known throughout the
length and breadth of the land as
our umcrowned American queen,
and that title. which he's been VOL
unfairly bestowed upon her by the
American public, is title of honor
more rich and worthy than any
which has been gained by inheri'
lance or by marriage.
Which of these two titled women
do our American girls most admire?
And which has had the happier
life?-Times- Dispatch.
