By MILDRED LOUISE DODGE

The social world is a boiling pot.
That which is under goes to the top
and after whirling about awhile sinks
again. The loss Of fortune among the
aristocrats Of Europe produces disas-
trous effects on the losers. There Is
little or no hope Of its recovery, and
they must drop to lower scale. They
can't bear to live among people who
have considered them far better than
themselves.
There is now an American colony in
avery capital in Europe, and those
who are financially able to entertain
and be entertained have an easier en-
tree to the one main social circle pre-
sided over by royalty than any other
nationality, for the reason that since
we have no titles In America no rank
is expected of US. Some years ago a
wealthy American gentleman named
Tracy spent a month In Rome. His
wife and daughter, Henrietta, had al
ways moved in the upper circles Of
America. and, having friends in the

Eternal City to introduce them, they
soon found themselves in the swim
there.
Henrietta Tracy was much sought
after by Italians, who would have
been glad to marry a beautiful Amer
lean with fortune Her only object
in accepting their attentions was a
natural desire to see the world In
Rome. One young man she fancied,
but he was supposed to be perfectly
Independent financially and did not
seem inclined to join the throng OF
her suitors.
But the lady was not sure that indif
ference was the cause of his standing
! aloof, though she did not know. There
are young men who are either toe
proud to enter into a competition fol
the hand Of girl pursued by fortune
hunters or too sensitive to pay atten
ton to such. But this young man, Lui
| 81 Brandini, was not pauper and nc
such motive could be attributed to him
| though his estate was said to be in
tOlfCQ III a Id w Suib VI
standing.
Nevertheless Brandini showed Miss
Tracy every attention he could with
| out indicating that he was likely to be
come q sutton The last time she saw
| him at a social function was ball Civ,
en- at the Quirinal palace, where he
| was her partner more than once dur
| ing the evening. He seemed gloomy
| and Miss Tracy could not help wonder
ing IL her departure, which was to take
| place the next day. had anything to dc
with his depression. When she was
leaving the palace the young man bid
her goodnight and goodby with a far
! away look in his eye that BODIED some
impending calamity.
That was the last the Tracys saw OF
Rome for some time. From there they
went to Berlin, thence to London and
finally sailed from England to Amer
lea.
Two years passed. One day Miss
Tracy entered restaurant In an Amer
lean city with party of friends fol

Being ignorant Of what had caused

THE TEST OF TIME

is a sure test by which to gauge the
efficacy of any remedy for human all
ments, whether advertised or ethical
ly prescribed by a physician.
A medicine that has stood the test
of time is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound. Its intricate merit
has been proven by the fact that for
nearly forty years It has been reliev-
ing womankind from suffering and
has constantly grown in popularity.
The demand for it today is larger than
that OF any similar remedy in the
world
This famous remedy for female ills
has proved to be of incalculssole value
to hundreds of thousands of Amerl-
can women.
