MISS VANDERAMVERA
ADMITTED At LAST
Wealthy Belgian Woman
Said to Have Trochoma,
Barred From u. S.

Washington, Aug. 15.-Acting Secre-
tary Herbert Knox Smith of the de-
partment of commerce and labor sent
the following telegram to the immigra-
ton inspector in charge at New Or
leans:
Decision of board of special inquiry
in case of Irene Vanderauwera sustain
ed. Admit her"
In this laconic order Acting Secre-
tary Smith disposes of the case of Miss
Irene Vanderauwera, a young and
beautiful Belgian woman, whose eff
forts to obtain admission to the
United States have attracted national
and international attention.
Miss Vanderauwera reached New Or
leans April as a passenger on the
steamer Tampican. In common with
| other aliens, she was subjected to a
medical examination by surgeons of the
marine hospital service, who certified
that she was afflicted with trachoma.
| On that certificate a board of special
| inquiry of the immigration service de-
cided to exclude her and ordered her
| deportation. She appealed from the
| decision and later was examined by a
special board of marine hospital sur
geons. the members OF which unani-
| mously declared she had trachoma.
Being a woman of some means and
| Of high social position in her own
country, and having relatives among
prominent people in the south, Miss
Vanderauwera was able to bring great
influence to bear in her behalf She
! finally was permitted to join her rela-
tives pending a final disposition of hel
case, She was kept under observation
by marine hospital surgeons, who found
no reason to change their first opinion
However, she was examined by some O.
the most eminent oculists in the south
all of whom declared unhesitatingl!
that she was not afflicted with tracho
ma and never had been.
In the latter part OF June Senate
McEnery of Louisiana and other in
fiuentiaI people appealed to the presi
dent to prevent Miss Vanderauwera1
deportation, but after looking into TIL
case he decided on July % not to in
tervene.
Acting Secretary Smith ordered tn
special board of inquiry to reconven
and take testimony covering ever,
phase of the case and render a decision
By vote of 2 to l the board decide
to admit her to the country. The dis
senting members appealed to the de
partment Of commerce and labor an
IN an opinion rendered after an ex
haustive examination of the case Act
: / ing Secretary Smith sustained the find
ing OF the majority OF the board.

Eddie Hahn was the popular hero at

broke up the losing streak with fine
three-b Dagger, while two men were on
bases. 1t was a grand rally by the
home team in the last two innings

Of hits and with a few passes
pulled home five runs. They had a mar
row squeeze, however, and just got
under the wire by a score of to 5.
Glaze who was in the box for Boston,
pitched great ball UP to the fatal eighth
inning when he seemed to go all to
pieces and was knocked out of the box.
Pruitt, who was put in, was a prune
indeed, and the last two runs were
made off that gent. However, the Sox
had their little box troubles and three
pitchers were used. Patterson was
bumped in the third, Altrock went well.

Hickman a chance to bat for him.
White then came along in the ninth
and they could not make a hit or a

game today and the Sox will enter
with more courage. Walsh will prob
ably face Tannehfl or Cy Young.

The Evolution Of
Household Remedies

The modern patent medicine busi-
ness is the natural outgrowth of tie
old-time household remedies.
In the early history of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas, bit
ters, laxatives and tonics, were to be
found in almost every house, COM
pounded by the housewife, sometimes
assisted by the apothecsry or the fam
ily doctor. Such remedies as picra,
which was aloes and quassia. dissolved
Ia apple brandy. Sometimes a hop
tonic, made of whiskey. hops and bit
ter barks. A score or more of popular,
homemade remedies were thus COM
pounded, the formulate for which were
passed along from house to house,
sometimes written, sometimes verbally
communicated.
The patent medicine business is a
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old time custom. In the begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, inn
pressed by the usefulness of one of
these homemade remedies, would take
At UP, improve it in many ways, manu-
facture it on large scale, advertise it
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus it would become used over a
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK A
MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM.
Peruna was originally one of these
old time remedies. 1t was used by the
Mennonites, Of Pennsylvania, before it
was offered to the public for sale. Dr..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of Men.
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed il
for his neighbors and his patients. The
sale of it increased, and at last he es
tablished mandatory and furnished
1T to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in great many eli
matte ailments, such as coughs, colds
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrha
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THT
USE OF PERNUA and its value il
the treatment OF these ailments. The,
have learned to trust and believe in DR.
Hartman's judgment, and to rely OF
his remedy, Peruna.

The Oldest house in New York State
is situated at the lower end of Staten
Island in Tottenville. 1t is known as
the "Billopp house." and was built in
1868. The Duke Of York presented
Captain Christopher Billopp with
tract of land on Staten Island, where
on he built this stone mansion, which
still overlooks the waters Of Raritan.
That it was well built its survival dur
ing 238 years attests. In it have been
many notable gatherings, and here was
held the peace conference. During the
revolution Billopp's descendants were
loyalists, and the, famous generals Of
the British were entertained at the old
house.

CHAPTER vIII.-(Continued.l }


In music and pleasant conversation the
evening passed quickly away. Arthur was
rapidly falling in love, and Constance,
too, could not help confessing to herself
that had they met twelvemonth before,
she might have one day been the mistress
of Penrhyddyn Castle.
While these thoughts were passing
through her mind, Arthur, who was look
ing through some portfolios of music,
came upon a number of French ballads,
which, from their worn and discolored ap-
pearance, seemed to be very old.
"They were my mother's," said Con-
stance; "she greatly valued them; they
belonged to her grandmother, by whom
they were brought from France during
the Revolution"
WAS your mother, then, of French ex-
traction?' inquired Arthur.
"Oh, yes; she was descended from a
branch of one of the old noblesse Her
grandfather and grandmother fed to Eng
land during the Reign of Terror, saving
only their bare lives; they died soon af-
ter their arrival, and then their children
settled down here, after making an un-
successful attempt to recover something
out OF the property they mad lost"
What was the name of the family
might l inquirer" asked Arthur.
You will find it upon the back of that
song you have in your hand" answered
Constance.
He turned over the sheet, and found
inscribed in one corner, in stiff, angular
characters, Marguerite de Soissons."
WAS she a De Soissons2" asked Ar.
thur, family, the memory of his owr
family legend rushing back upon his
mind.
Yes; and intensely proud she was oi
her lineage" answered Constance.
1t was Arthur's turn to be cold now
The conversation tagged, he finding 1t i'm
possible to support his share in 1t, and
presently he rose to take his leave. Tht
parting was equally cool on both sides.
Upon consulting railway time table
Arthur discovered that he should be able
to catch the last train.
In less than half an hour he was on hi.
way back to London.
