Among the Most Prominent of These Gladys Vanderbilt Who Has
Been an Angel of Mercy in Ausa-Hungary and Who Now
Finds Herself ATayed Against Home
Land and Family.

Germany, before the war, treated the
American woman who came to her
arms with great consideration. The
touch of business did not rankle at
the imperial court because the kaiser
himself embarked in trade and was as
proud of his pottery as he was of Il
new regiment.
But there was sadly different story
TO be told in Austria, all of which adds
TO the predicament of the talented and
beautiful women who are now forced
by love TO salute flag that is arrayed
against their own.
Under the rules of the Austrian
court no person could be presented
unless eight generations of nobility
could be shown as condition preee-
dent. Coming from America, where
titles of nobility are not recognized.
these women found the imperial gate
closed, or half-closed to them, while
anything with the required armorial
bearings might slide through the
ehink.
Notable among them was the Count
ess Sigray. who was Miss Harriet
DAILY, daughter of the late Marcus
DAILY. Her sister is Mrs. James ".
Gerard, wife of the former ambassa-
dor of the United States to Germany
She married Count Anton Sigray. who
had held many important posts in the
service of the empire and whose po-
sitien at the court was beyond any
possible question. Love and the law
also took her from the land of her
birth and from the friends and rea-
tives who are cheering for Old Glory
while she nurses the sick and seeks
the wounded under the imperial ban
ner.
She has given q private hospital to
the Austrian forces, and, with New
York enterprise, has seen to it that
the government also had frst-class

Her Choice

Hazel was at a loss to make a choice
between two young sprouts in her gar
den of love. She desired a hardy plant,
one that would thrive in any sell and
under any conditions. No shadow must
prevent the sprout selected from grow
ing.
Every day could not have its full
allotment of sunshine. Which would
she choose? Either was pleasing TO
the eye. Then came day when the
wind blew hard-a draft from one end
of the country to the other.
One of the sprouts wlthered from the
biting blast. The other thrived and
grew as though 1t had been blessed
with continual sunshine. Now Hazel
