AMERICAN GIRLS

AN INVESTMENT

LONDON, Oct. 25.AFrederick
Townsend Martins volume of remi-
niscences, entitled Things l Remem-
ber," just out, will be read eagerly
by Anglo American society. 1t is
full of anecdotes about well-known
people and is assured an extensive
circulation, as the Libraries and book
sellers have given large orders.
Martin expresses what may be con-
sidered too candid views on Ameri-
can peeresses.

American society or to qualify her for

ton, and only the pupils natural vi
vaCity prevents her from becoming
artificial.
Believe in Advertisement.
These daughters of liberty are
generous. They spend money lavish
", but with discrimination, and If
their manner of doing so is occasion
ally a little blatant, surely much can
be forgiven those who give much.
They believe in the value of adver-
tisement, they like to see society par
agraphs about their jewels and gowns,
and they love to know all the world
will read about their vast improve
ments on their husbands estates.
To them it represents business, not
snobbishness. They regard their po-
stion in the peerage as an invest
ment, for in both cases the idea Is
that they will become paying con-
Germs.
The late King Edward used to tell
Miss Alice de Rothschild that al

about an American lady" said His
Majesty, 81 am invariably told:
"'Oh, sir; she has no position at
home. Out there she would be Just
dirt under our feet"
When They Were Novelties.
Martin tells many stories of the
early days of the American invasion
Of English society. At Cowes every
one, was talking about Mrs. John
MacKay. Inc women were on the
edge of expectation to see what jew

seemed like a jewelers. display for
Mrs. Mackay's benefit, meaning to
imply: Well you may possess jew
els untold, but we are not quite out

At last the name of Mrs. Mackay
was announced. Everybody turned.
expecting to see walking Golconda;
instead there appeared a young
charming woman, dressed in white
without a single jewel"

Special Gable to The American.


LONDON, Oct. 25.-The large num-
Der of prominent Americans in town
during the week has been extraor-
binary. considering the time of the
year, and the "house full" sign is
much In evidence at the fashionable
hotels. The sudden break up of the
fine weather drove hundreds who had
been staying in the country back to
town, while the fact that the Impera-
tor on Thursday took more than 500
first cabin passengers home account
ed in great measure for the rush.
Naturally there was a good deal of
quiet entertaining going on in an ef =
fort to make life bearable, pending
the wholesale fitting of society to the
Riviera and such like winter resorts
In search of warmer weather.
Probably no newly appointed Amer
lean Ambassador has had SO many
worries to contend with as has Waiter
II. Page, He has been compelled to
cancel several private engagements
owing to the troubles in Mexico and
is constantly visiting Sir Edward
Grey, while his hours at the United
States Embassy are those Of fash
lonable physician.
American Actress a Hit.
Lady Maxwell and Lady Deerhurst
have been In constant attendance upon
their mother, Mrs. Bonynge, who at
one time was critically Ill in the
nursing home. Mrs Bonynge Is now
out of danger, and will spend some
months on the Riviera as soon as she
is able TO travel.
The Duchess of Marlborough will
enliven the winter season by giving a
ball at Sunderland House in Decem
Der. The dance she gave last winter
was an enormous success.

dinner last night, delivered himself Of
the usual paradox by saying that Brad
laugh was great religious force and
II he had been an archbishop he would

bishop England ever had seen.
Bradlaugh, he said. was also an ICON
oclast. Formerly an iconocast had an
easy task, he pointed out, in that he
only had to deal with smashing blocks
of wood and stone, but that it was
different to-day inasmuch as our idols
were made of flesh and blood.
Persons like ourselves, he declared

and called themselves kings" An
other idol wore a robe and an absurd
wig and was called a Justice" Others
put on blue suits and helmets and
called themselves law and order" Still
others put on collars which opened in

they were called religion"
