1t well nigh impossible for the con-

makes the wholesale calling process
unnecessary.

writes a Berlin correspondent. The
Austrian Countess Czivek started the

of making you wait. Tired of turning
over French novels in an antecham-
Der, the beautiful countess fell asleep.

OF sleeping beauty he threw off a
