duel in the fashionable suburb of ST.
German, and even though this de-
nouement was averted, police court
proceedings are to follow.
The actress was walking in st. Ger
main in company with Prince G..
when two ladies who passed her, fol-
lowed at a short distance behind their
husbands, began to make audible and
not altogether complimentary COM
ments on the size, shape and trim
mings of Nine de Pougy's hat, which
they judged loud" and quite out Of
place in quiet and respectable St.
German.
Prince c. thereupon intervened
and demanded from the husbands Of
the ladies an apology for their un-
seemly remarks and was about to hand
his card to one of them when that
gentleman, without further ado, struck
him in the face. The prince and
Nine. de Pougy have taken out sum-
monses against the ladies and their
husbands.

COUNTESS HELD FOR
FRAUD, ELITE SHOCKED

Berlin.-Social circles at Munich
have been shocked by the arrest of
the Countess Frederick Won Schon-
born Buchheim (born Princess So
phia Cantacuzene) on suspicion of
completely in swndles perpetrated in
Austria and Switzerland.
Though the countess has been liv-
ing in the most modest style, she has
had access to the best circles in Mu-
nch society, and 1t is believed that
she may be a victim of case of mis-
taken identity. The Vienna police
send word that the person wanted is
a chorus girl, who, it is thought, may
have made unwarranted use of the
countess name.
The countess husband is member
of the Bohemian branch of the great
Schonborn family, which was founded
in the thirteenth century The heads
Of it were barons, and later counts, of
the Holy Roman empire. The coun-
tress comes of the yet more ancient
Russian family of Cantacuzene, which
is of Byzantine origin.
Since her husbands financial af-
fairs became involved, few years
ago. the countess has lived with her
mother, the Princess Cantacuzene, at
Munich, where her 10-year-old son,
Count Paul, attends school.

government had better go slow and
try out the rural system before at
tempting the costly establishment OF
parcels post in cities. Its rural dis
tricts, he pointed out. the nucleus Of
the machinery already existed in the
rural free delivery.
He considers a raise OF 5000 a year
sufficient amount to cover the ex.
this there was little additional cost to
be expected in the way of horses and
wagons and he said that a thorough
inveStigation had assured the mem
bers Of the Merchants association that
the venture would prove profitable
to the postoffice department. The
views held by Mr.. Marks are all in

John NJ. Stahl, president of the
Farmers congress, said that II was
unfair that a japanese in this coun-
try could send a package of 10 pounds

citizen to send that same package
from Washington to Baltimore would
have to pay s1.60. even when the
package was broken up into mail linn
it of three pound packages He ad-
vocated either the zone system Of
charge or else an entire monopoly Of
the parcels carrying business by the
government. The express company.
he said, was almost exclusively an
American institution as In nearly
every other country in the world the
government had a monopoly on this
business.

FROM THE SUNNY SOUTH LAND.

Nature has been lavish in her gifts to
the South, and none Is more important
and practical than her gift Of the Cotton
Plant. In the soil, warmth and sunshine
of the South, the Cotton plant attains its
highest perfection. Formerly, only the
white, downy lint Of the Cotton Boil was
preserved, but today, from the kernel Of
the cotton seed is pressed an oil which
compares favorably with the purest olive
oil. From this oil of the cotton seed is
made cooking fat called Cottolene. In
efficiency, purity and wholesomeness,
Cottolene far excels the fat of the hog,
and 1t has well been named "Nature's
gift from the Sunny South"
