Girls In . Foreign Atmosphere

Girls In . Foreign Atmosphere.
A German American author, Frau
Won Ende, whose book was published
In Berlin the other day, undertakes to
explain why SO many American girls
are captivated by the nobility Of the
continent. She says that very many Of
these girls never get an American edu-
cation. They are often taught by Ger
man or French governesses and reared
In surroundings which are intended to
initiate those Of cultivated Europeans
Even cheap limitations Of foreign fur
niture and paintings may affect girls
ideals Of the things desirable in life.
American girls are expatriated "be-
fore they make their first trip to Eu-
rope" says this author, and the men
they meet in American society have
nothing in common with their vitiated
tastes. What everyday life fails to do
in creating foreign atmosphere for
the Idle mind is supplied in the for
eign novel with its heroic nobleman
as impossible as he Is romantic. An
attractive young woman cannot be long
abroad without meeting the Prince
Charlie Of her dreams. and after that
American simplicity has no chance.

Foreign Capital In America.
The late king Of Belgium held stocks
Of railways in this country. King Ed
ward recently made a good turn in
speculative stocks here. These In
stances Of royalty investing capital in
America are not exceptional. 1t is said
that about 10000. 900 in foreign
money has been brought to this coun-
Try for investment during the last fifty
years.
The inflow Of capital from abroad
began with the financing Of our new
railroads. The financing Of American
enterprises from this source will prob
ably continue for a long time, although
the relative amount may diminish.
Our national wealth is now fixed at
about s1O7, 600, 100000 and will doubt
less increase. The amount Of foreign
money at work here is too small to be
Of influence except as it contributes to
greater productivity in certain fields
and adds to our own wealth. The for
eign investor gets the dividends, but
the advantages Of substantial develop
ment remain here.
