Paris. April A-Mrs. Annie Wilson
Howe. President Wilson's sister. has be-
come An earnest promoter OF the Fresh
Air Art Society, en- international orSanl-
zatIon now about ten months DID, Whoss
purpose is TO stimulate healthy and "a
tional ideas In every variety or art III
erature. music. painting and sculpture.
Mrs. Howe is one OF four honorary
members, the others being the Princess
Alexandrine Wlndisch-Graetz, OF Austria
the Earl OF Plymouth and Lord WINDSOR.
Among the thirty members are Auguste
Robin. the sculptor; Camille Fiammarion'
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. the Countess
Hartenau. widow OF the Battenoers
Prince OF Bulgaria, and Lady Phylhs
Windsor Give. who is reputed TO 90 the

Some notable American members are
Grace King. the Louisiana novelist; War
rington Dawson. the novelist or Charles
ton, s. C: John Powell. the composer,
and Alice stopford Green, the historian.
Dawson and Powell are the founders or
the society.
Mrs. Howe, who has been living here
for a year, assisted In arousing interest
In France in the principles OF the society
which are as follows:
We believe in the Oneness OF Life.
We believe in the Oneness of Art.
We believe in the Eternity OF Art as
standing for Life.
Wherefore Art is a means. not an End.
Before the End can be conceived Life
must be understood.
Before Life can be understood its re-
sponsibilities must be acknowledged
That the End pursued by Arts means
may be true the Life which Art repre-
sents must be true.
Wherefore Life and Art must alike DO
founded upon conditions OF sound body
nerves, heart and mind. But such foun-
dation must itself rest upon the great
laws which have promoted the evolution
of Life.
That Art may be controlled il must con-
tain qualities of reason and OF constfhc-
ton beneath all forces or subteties OF
appeal. That Art may not only exist but
NAV wax strong in the harmony whlch
is infnity it must, like Life itself, obey
the laws Of health which combat decay
The great facts Of human history nave
been those which bespoke the eliminating
spirit Of race; the great works OF human
Art have been those which expressed the
highest spirit of their own age.
To acknowledge that exploiters OF SUI
perfcial emotions or seekers after sheer
eccentricity represent the spirit OF our
age is to pronounce this age unworthy to
ne a link between the past az we know 1t
and the future as we have the right to
desire il.
Wherefore we declare ourselves for the
Art as for the Life which. rests upon a
respect for Natures laws in the Fresh
Air Of Health and the clear Light OF
Truth.

TITLE A WINNER IN
MATRIMONIAL LURE
Old Type of Bunco Game
FlOurishes Anew in
Italy.

H.
Rome. april 22.-Matrimonlal bunco
games seem TO have become a favorite
amusement in Italy within the last few
months. There have been several arrests
recently for this sort OF swlndle the latest
one being that OF the usher OF one OF the
public Offices In Rome. who realized that
a title OF nobility added greatly 10 ones
market value as a matrimonial choice,
and gave himself the name Of Count Bat
tsta Lepanto Of Cavicchy. describing
himself as a member OF a noble Roman
family and the heir 10 great wealth.
In this disguise he advertised freely for
a wife, and when he was arrested hun
dreds Of letters from women who were
willing to pay for the privilege OF sharing
his title were found i'm his possession.
The counts" arrest was brought about
through his attempts to obtain premature
possession of the fortune OF rich family,
Mutt. to whose daughter he had become
engaged. He persuaded the girl 10 try TO
break open her fathers safe in order TO
get money so that the alleged count could
obtain possession of an imaginary in
heritance near Rome. When the safe
breaking attempt failed the count" in
duced the girl 10 give him all her mothers
tewelry. as well as her own, and. IN addi-
ton. to sign three promissory notes IN
blank. lie told the girl that the notes
would be filed in for $1,000 each, but after
he had pawned the jewelry he filled the
notes in for $4,000 apiece. When the fam
lily found oIt about the notes they bought
them back from the young man for $50
and then had him arrested
After his arrest ii turned out that Bat
tsta was also wanted for having robbed
a young girl in Milan under the pretence
of marriage. In this connection there was
found in his possession check for 100000
with the evidently forged signature OF a
we'll known Milanese jeweler.
Another of his escapades was sending
letter TO a banker in Piacenza threatening
him with death unless a letter addressed
TO "Athos,' containing $1,000, were sent TO
the post restante. Battista persuaded his
employer TO call for the letter, and when
the employer was arrested he was so con-
fiding as TO assure the police that Battista
was an honest man and gentleman ana
that the whole affair was a joke.
Now that he is in custody 1attista Of
fers with the utmost calmness the de-
fence that all his troubles are owing TO
his being so fascinating with women that
they insist on helping him in various
ways, while his other little difficulties
were mere matters of business. which
were in the course Of being satisfactorily
settled.

From Ths Tribune corresponden,l
ST. Petersburg. April 2t--The orthodox
Russian Church Is passing at present
through a serious crisis IN the matter OF
strange gods, divine healers and other
such persons. who are cropping W
throughout the country in large numbers.
The number and variety OF these miracu-
lous individuals are hardly more remark
able than the means being taken by the
dignltaries of the Church 20 combat them
in the endeavor to fight these phenomena
and restore discipline
The Bishop OF Riasan has issued a de
cree forbidding his clergy TO smoke or
wear starched collars. while the Bishop OF
Vologda had added 10 this order a pro-
hibition against wearing starched cuffs
The Bishop or Dvlnsk has forbidden the
clergy 10 belong TO any cooperative Sc
ciety. while another makes II unlawful 10
use such foreign profanity as opposition"
or protest
The new Bishop OF Tobolsk. in the first
sermon TO his congregation, ordered that
ing hat or skirt with color in II, or a
tight dress. or stand snear the men. His
first order TO his clergy forbade smoking
and the wearing In church Of robes built
OF silk The clergy were also forbidden
To visit moving picture shows. and a
priest who dehed the order and went 10 q
picture palace was reduced 10 the rank
OF deacon and sent to n distant mon
astery. where he was ordered 10 perform
divine service three times day for two
months
The last punishment occasloned a mass
meeting with bands and torchlight
parade and a written protest from all
the clergy Of the diocese. who state that
II was against the law and morals OF
the Church to compel priest to conduct
divine service, az the Church required
from its servants that they should praise
God with free will and joyful heart
This strange campaign within the
Church has followed a trial Of tho "Okhta

For years, common bold-sulphur has

The moment you apply 1t to an itch

stops and the healing begins. says a

amazement to physicians.
While not always establishing per

Any good pharmacist will supply an
