Paris, Feb. 6.-Countess Boni de
Castellane formerly Anna Could
has entered a plea for divorce. Repre-.
sentatives of the countess and the
count appeared before Judge Henry
Ditte, of the court of first instance.
who, in conformity with the French
law, endeavored to arrange a recon.
eiliation before allowing a definite suit
to proceed. 1t is said on unquestion-
able authority that Judge Ditte's ef.
forts We're not successful, the countess
absolutely declining to resume her re.

Count de CasteIlane's advisers to ar.

No decision has been reached rela-
tive to the eventual custody of the
three children of the count and coun- |
tess but they being under age will for
the present naturally remain in the
care of their mother.
Sensational reports have been circu. T

81 believe there is nothing better ir
all the world than patriotic, brave and
chivalrous American manhood except
the loveliness, the purity, and the
beauty Of American womanhoOd. Some
one has said that when God made
the American girl, "He sent his Angel
messengers throughout all the star
str8wn realms of space to gather all
there was OF beauty and brightness, of
enchantment, Of glamour. When those
Angels returned from their harvesting
of beauty and threw down their glitter,
ing burden at His feet, He began in
their wondering presence the fashion
ing of the American girl. He wrought
with the gold and the CLEAN of the stars
shifting glories of the rainbow hues
and the paIlid silver of the moon. He
wrought with the CRIMSON which
swoOned ia the roses pubied heart,
with the sweet snow which CLEANS,
from the lilies petals and the
flames which fash and leap from
the jewels depth, Then gIancing
doep into His own bosom He took of the
love which CLEANED there like some
rare pearl beneath the wind kissed
waves of a summer sea thrilled into the
form he was ~fashioning, and all heaven
and earth reioiced, for, 10! he had

never been blest by having a son in

given me three bright faced blue-eyed,
rosy checked girls, who are the pride

If their lives are committed to the care
and protection of a plainAmerican citizen

character, devoted to his country and to
his God. To be queen In such a home
is woman's God given and highest
sphere.
had rather see my daughters associ-
ate with a young man who posses sed of
virtues, though he may not have a dollar
in the world, than to see them shine in
so-called high society" with somebody
who boasts nothing except some exalted
position or inherited wealth cast upon
them without merit or worth on their
part, by favored circumstances sur
rounding them.
In other words what | admire is true
worth in man himself. | do not care
what his position is so far as cl asses are
