THREE PRINCESSES SUE
THEIR FATHERS WIDOW
King Leopold's Daughters Bring Suit
to Recover Works Of Art Given
Baroness Vaughan.

Baroness Vaughan.
BRUSSELS. Dec. 9.-Another suit
has been brought. by the royal heirs
Of the late King Leopold against the
Baroness de Vaughan, now Nine.
Durieux. to whom the aged king gave
the chateau OF Balincourt
1t Is known that the Baroness
Vaughan has in the chauteau many
valuable pieces OF furniture. as well
as some priceless tapestry which
came from the royal palace OF Lac
ken. Her contention, of course. is
that the king gave them to her, but
the royal heirs claim that the late
king had no right to ALLEVIATE these
possessions.
The courts have ordered an inves-
tigation. Meanwhile many of the pic
lures which Leopold tried to sell
shortly before his death have been
recovered and taken back to Brus-
sells. The most notable case is that
of The Miracles of Saint Benoit,"
by Rubens. This picture was in New
York when the king of the Belgians
died, but had found no purchaser.
Three of the princesses--Louise,
Stephanie and Clementine-have al
ready received one and one-third mil
lion dollars each from their late ia.

WHEN THE MESSAGE RINGS TRUE
Results From Persistent Advertising
Are Never Disappointing.

A number Of newspapers through
out the country are making feature
OF advertising talks, frequently allud-
ding to business firms that have trav-
eled onward and upward to success
through honest and persistent adver-
Using, backed, OF course, with the
right gbods and the right kind Of store
management. Such firms, SO these
writer's tell us, have gradually won
the confidence of the public and when
they appear in the public prints with
an announcement of a special nature,
immediate results are never disap-
pointing.
A convincing verifcation of the ad.
vertising trueisms advanced by these
writer's occurred i'm this city last week
when the Ballantine Co.. tailors, cor
ner of State-st and Washington-ave.,
announced that they had arranged to
dispose OF their stock OF fall and win
ter woolens by making q consider
able reduction from their regular
prices for made-tomeasure suits.
Their first newspaper advertising ap-
peared on Friday and 1t Is really Il
pity that all doubling Thomases"
regarding the power and efficacy OF
persistent honest advertising could
not have been present to note the
immediate and gratifying response.
This tailoring concern started Just
four years ago to advertise In small
but regular way. No part OF their
business received more attention than
what they had TO say to the public
in their printed messages in the news
papers. Their aim was TO simply tell
what they honestly believed they
could do in the direction OF providing
men with made-to-measure garments
at sensible, reasonable prices. They
honestly believed that I'm Mr.. Ballan.

appear to the best possible advant-
age. These straightforward talks,
coupled with a sincere desire and ef-
fort to give satisfaction. proved to
have the SNOWFALL elements of accre-
ton, and today this concern OF mod.

place I'm the tailoring world.

should be located over the line in Cald-
