Looking backward at other inter-
national marriages, it would appear
that the new marchioness's chances
for future happiness are very few. The
roster of American brides of European
husbands is a large one and misery
and unhappiness is written large after
each name. Here is part of the dis
couraging list:
Ruth AmOry and Baron Roquefort,
divorced noble husband threatened her
life with a butchers knife.
Florence Audenroid and Count
est-Divonne; beaten and ill-treat-
ed by her husband.
Elizabeth Carey and Baron de
Stuers divorced; wife was prisoner in
castle for some time.
Estelle Chaplin and Count Villars,
divorced; the count lost all interest in
his wife after securing a liberal share
of her $1,000,000.

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE marriage
of Marquis Antoine de- Charette to
Miss Suzanne Herring has attracted
much attention on this side of the
water, and today's ceremony in New
York is looked upon as the culmina-
ton of a real international romance.
AS neither the bridegroom nor the
bride is wealthy. the prime considera-
ton which usually enters into such
'love" affairs is absent in this in
stance Indeed, those who pretend to
know state that the marquis is more
bountifully supplied with this worlds
goods than is his bride
The marquis is said to be thrifty
person, with considerable knowledge
of the value of money-a characters
tic almost unknown among the mobiles
of the decaying French aristOcracy. He
has given an exhibition of this thrift
by leaving on this side the many
beautiful presents intended for today s
bride, in order to avoid the payment
of American duties.
The gifts from royal parsonage
come from the connections Of General
de Charette, head of the French roy
alists in Brittany, where his ancestor,
the vendee chief, was shot by the re-
publicanS in 1897.
Among the donors are the Queen
of Portugal, the duke of Orleans, the
duke de Charette. the Countess de
Paris and the Count de Casserte. the
Duke de Rohan, the Duke de Lorge
and the Duke de Cases.
One of the gifts is a bejeweled
sword, which the Pontiflcial ZOuaves,
former comrades in arms of General
de Charette, have presented. There
are. again, historical pendants, dia-
mond pendants, diamond flowers and
old Flanders lace from the Baronee de
Charette. The aunt of the bridegroom
presents the bride with the richest OF
all the gifts. diadem of diamond laur-
ell leaves. The giver is Mile. Henrietta
de Charette.

lone Touch of Nature Makes the
Whole World Kin"

Where rooster finds a big fat
worm he calls all the hens In the
farm yard to come and share it. A
similar trait of human nature is to be
observed when a man discovers some
thing exceptionally good-he wants
all his friends and neighbors to share
the benefits of his discovery. This
is the touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin. This explains why
people. who have been cured by Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy write letters
to the manufacturers for publication
that others similarly ailing may also
use 1t and obtain relief. Behind
every one of these letters il q warm
hearted wish of the writer to be OF

England's Nervousness.

Los Angeles Times: Day by day
comes fresh evidence that English
nerves are upon edge and that she
believes herself to be in peril as great
as when the armies of Napoleon were
camped upon the cliffs of Boulogne.
A mere hint that in some Indefinite
number of years the naval power of
her rival may approximate her own
is sufficient to cause a financial out
lay that would have staggered the last
generation, while the frenzied call to
arms is sounded as emerge iically from
pulpit, press and theater as from thc,
army recruiting authorities, whose
business it is to attend to such mat
tiers. 1t is evident that there is such
a thing as collective hysteria, and that
England is still suffering from this
complaint.

Has Mistaken the Girl.

The American girl has generally
been puzzle to the women of Eng
land and the continent, but she con-
tinues to turn out better than Europe
thought possible for one with such
freedom of tutelage and such uncon-
ventional ways.
Europe, however, does not have a
chance to see the American girl at
her best. 1t is not fair to judge by the
samples that come over with the tour
list procession, for the nice girls are
often put out of patience by what they
have to endure in foreign travel, and
the girls that are not so nice, the
silly daughters of the newly rich,
make themselves more conspicuous
than the true American would wish.
A writer in the London Daily Mir
ror who is described as we'll
known English society woman" is
much disturbed over the demora1izing
influence which she says American
girls are having upon the young wo-
men of England. She goes on to spe-
city and it is plain that she has made
a mistake.
She says among other things that
the American girl wears high-jewel-
ed collars and cigarette case clanks
from her waist or wrist. She pos
sesses the tea rose pallor and the
airs of a woman of As. She can not
blush, has no romantic ideas and no
Imagination.

THE GERMAN PERIL.
Showing England's Hysteria As
Viewed By the Americas Press.
Sees Necessity OF Colonies.

i
Washington Post: The riyalries
and jealousier that prompt the build
ing of Dreadnoughts in England and
Germany are due to the fact that the
continental empire sees the vital ne
cessity of colonies. For half a GEN.
fury the United States afforded the
German a landing place; but Bismark
made a united Germany, and the ma
ton demands that the emigrant shall
follow the flag. The blood of both
nations is up and one or the other
must retire from the rivalry or fight.
Detroit News: The story that Ger
many coerced Russia in the recent
Balkan crisis in flatly declaring that
unless the latter acquiesced in the
Austrian program German troops
would at once invade Russian terri
tory Is incredible. Not because such
means of persuasion would be con-
trary to German methods or because
they would be too monstrous for pub
lie opinion, but simply because they
were unnecessary, and even Germany
does not indulge in brutality when
nothing is to be gained by it. In eff
feet the threat had been made al
ready. 1t was implied in the whole

WESLEYAN u.
OUT OF DEBT
Through Benefaction of James J.
Hill, Who Gives $4,000

Mitchell, June 22.-After labor
ing and worrying over the PROPOSE
ton for some little time President
Kerfoot, of the Dakota Wesleyan
university, has announced that the
debt of Sill, 800, which has been
hanging over the college for several
years has been completely wiped out
and that he will now devote his en-
ergies to the erection of a new gym
nasium, part of the funds for which
are already in sight.
When DR.. Kerfoot took his posi-
tion as the head of the university,
the task which presented itself to
him first was the abolishment of the
debt and IN this he has succeeded
most admirably. After several do
nations from eastern parties, Dr.
Kerfoot had an interview with
James J. Hill, of the Great North
ern railroad system, with the result
that this great captain of industry
said he would give $4,000 towards
the abollshment of the debt provided
that the rest Of the money was rails
ed. Under the supervision Of lots
belonging to the University were sold
which sufficed to wipe out the re-
mainder of the debt.
The gymnasium enterprise has the
hearty support of the board of dir
ectors, each member pledging him.
self to it's support. With $1,000 al
ready on hand to commence the
foundations for the structure, which
is planned to be the best in the state,
work will probably commence on it
early in the fall. With this sort of
accommodations Dakota Wesleyan
should easily forge ahead in the ath-
letics of the state as she has never
been hampered by lack of material,
the lack of training quarters being
her only embarrassment.

No Sex i'm the Heart

There are few people in the world
who appreciate the growing boy.
The most of us wouldn't care a great
deal if it were customary to put him
in a barrel and head the barrel up,
figuratively, to get him safely taken
care till he is grown But, just the
same, there is no sex in heart. If
the mother who believes boys are
more difficult than girls, were to
compare the hearts of her children,
she would find them built on the
same plan even to the emotions that
are popularity supposed to have
their origin there. The New Idea
