SOCIETY BELLE BECAME GYPSY

In the October Wide World Maya
zine the story is told of how the faS-
cination of a gypsy's life overcame a
young lady who was a member of one
of the most aristocratic families, and
induced her to sacrifice her position
in society to throw in her lot with
a gypsy tribe.
Six years ago Miss Jessie Key Ha~
bersham was the mistress of one of the
stately homes of the city of Balti-
more. Miss Habersham was one of
the most beautiful girls in the city
and an acknowledged leader of Bal
timore society.
Many American girls obtain a title
by marrying a duke or a lord. Miss
of the gypsies. Today she is Queen,
Jessie Michele, the wife of king"
George Michele, head of one of the
largest and most aristocratic clans or
gypsies west of the Mississippi river,
a tribe that comprises over thousand
families.
One day Miss Habersham suddenly
disappeared from her Baltimore home,
to the alarm and amazement of her
family and friends, and all efforts to
trace her whereabouts failed. Four
years passed before anyone knew what
had become of her, and then the facts
caused a sensation.
When Miss Understands mother dled
the child was sent to a private school
at the famous New York springs. One
day, while out walking with two
school companions, they met a gypsy
caravan camped beside the road. The
gypsy women were kind to the school
girls, and told them strange and
weirdly interesting stories. After that
the girls went out frequently, visiting
the camp at various times.
When IA years old Miss Habersham
came home to her father. She told
him of the gypsies and of the attrac-
tiveness of their life, and began at
once to study all the literature upon
the subject that she could get hold
of: she also mastered the Romany Ian
guage. Before long she was sent to
college, where she sought the oppor-
tunity of learning Romany ways and
manners. During this time the girl
told her friends that she sighed con-
tinually for the fields, the open road
and the gypsy life. Society stif1ed her,
she said, with it's conventions and shall
lowness. Once she ran away and was
gone for several DAYS; but who" she
returned she would never tell where
she had been. AS matter of fact,
she had been to see the gypsies, with
whom, in some mysterious way, she
seemed to be in touch. A second time

ishness and not point their guns at a
woman. They laughed and shouldered
arms. That seems to be all there is
to the story. Stonewall Jackson is
eliminated; there was no shot fired,
but nevertheless guns were pointed at
Barbara Fritchie, and so the poem of
Whittier's is not altogether the pro-
duct of imagination. The poet may
have got his information from some
dispatch to a yellow newspaper, if
they had them in those days. Wash

CATARRH

Catarrh, what is it? A disease af-
fecting the mucous membranes of the
nose. Acute catarrh is generally
brought on in childhood by sudden
change of temperature causing chill
ling of the surfaces of the body, espe-
cially if perspiring at the time.
1t is also brought on by inhaling
irritating particles, like dust or other
foreign substances.
There are two forms of catarrh-
acute and chronic. In the acute form
there is an excessive amount of secre-
ton poured out from the nose, the mu-
cous membrane appears red and sWol-
len. Chronic catarrhal Inflammation
differs from acute catarrhal inflamma-
ton in that the subepithelial layer OF
the mucous membrane is more deeply
involved. Usually the mucous mem
brane is thickened and hypertrophied
and refuses to get back into its normal
size after the cold is over. In fact, the
very pressure of one gland against the
other so irritates the membranes that
they never recover and we have
chronic form of catarrh that goes on
from bad to worse finally turning into
a dry catarrh and ending up with
ozena or sinking catarrh. The latter
form is almost incurable, but its symp-
toms can be greatly benefited and the
breath sweetened by simple home
treatment.
1 think that I am safe in making
the assertion that there has not been
a case of chronic catarrh cured by
sprays, inhalations or douches alone.
The hood and nerves also need treat
ment, as most catarrhal subjects have
inherited some faint of scrofula from
some of their parents or grandparents
A great MANY cases of catarrh are in
durable without surgical operation,
removal of spurs on the septum, en-
larged turbinates and polypus.

T HE hatpin controversy is getting to be a national
affair,
AS a natter of public interest 1t has put the
HALEY comet com pletely in the shade.
1t is now a misdemeanor for any woman to wear a
long hatpin in Chicago. After a months discussion in the
City Council the ordinance was passed by a vote of 6s
to 2, in spite of Kisses from the galleries, where women
had gathered to protest.
The women maintained that long hatpins often at
night formed their only weapons of defense, and they
logically added hat the city had mo right to regulate

WASHINGTON, March 30.-Repre-
sentative Nichols of Pennsylvania yes
terday introduced resolution in the
house of representatives calling upon
the attorney general Of the United
States for data in connection with the
arrest and conviction of Nillareal, Ma
gon and Rivera. who were found guilty
Of conspiring against Mexico and thus
violating the laws Of neutrality.
Representative Nichols expressed the
belief that the government is allowing
itself to be used by Mexico to punish
political offenders, and he demanded
that thorough investigation be made
into the status Of affairs with the view
10 ascertaining in just how far the
United States is being made catspaw.
\ series of magazine articles now in
course OF publlcati0n under the title
Of I'm Barbarous Mexico makes
charges that slavery exists openly in
the southern republic and has caused
considerable talk. Il is this charge
which moved Nichols to introduce his
resolution.
NiIlareaI, Magon and Rivera were
first arrested in shack in Los Angeles
on Geographic orders from the secre-
tary Of commerce and labor. They were
supposed to be conspirng against the
government of Mexico. and they spent
several weeks in the Los Angeles city
prison, during (which time they were
treated As martyrs by the socialistie
and anarchistic elements. Later thew
were released, but were again arrested
in Arizona, and are. now serving terms

N the time Of the arrest of the
three men an effort was made by Mex

extradition. but the California State
authorities refused to give them up.
