not realize for many months, that she was
being used by men and women who could
or would do nothing to boost her game.
The fact that Mrs. Aston invited these
sycophants to her large balls blinded Mrs
Frost's eyes to the truth. OF course, their
names were on Mrs. AstoT's list; they
were born to that honor; but neither IN
wealth nor behavior did they live up to It;
they were simply beggars at the feast, with
not an iota Of influence. Mrs. Frost
squandered fortune In cultiyating them,
but all she got out Of It for five years were
chances to subscribe to certain smart char
tiles and what not.
Fifteen years ago-in the Winter of 1904,
to be exact-Mrs Frost took account Of
stock and decided that she was being
steadily Hdone" by her new friends; she
found that half dozen women had given
her name to women Of fashion AID impor
lance as an "easy mark" who yearned
only to subscribe to their charities.
In this way these sycophants paid their
social debts while making Mrs. Frost feel
that they were trying to place her in
society. Five years wastedi
But, after all, the ambitious lady had
learned something-which was to accept
the situation gracefully and charge the
fortune scattered up to profit and loss.
Summer social position means moth
ing; it is ones Winter background that
counts. and Mrs. Frost realized this and
spent her Summers in Europe, acquiring
a knowledge Of French, Italian and human
nature
The FIVE years were therefore not en-
tirely wasted. With rare courage Mrs.
Frost dropped the worst offenders among
her followers and then put the matter
xlrr f.afn -
ness associates He said bluntly: when
/ can't put over a thing myself hire some
one else to do it for me. The result was
the engaging Of well-known social secre-
tary to engineer her future. This woman
had made the social careers Of a dozen
important Newporters, made them so well
that the lucky climbers now consider them
selves as the very foundations Of Newport
society!
The first plum that fell to Mrs Frost
was an invitation to the wedding and re-
ception of Miss Florence Twombly and
William A. M. Burden. This was great
achievement. Invitations to fashionable
church weddings are not so very difficult
to secure. 1t is the reception that counts,
especially such a reception as would be
given for the daughter Of H. NICK.
Twombly in the Fifth avenue mansion.
Mrs. T#ombly was daughter of William
H. Vanderbilt and sister Of the late Cor
nelius and William K Vanderbilt
The day Of the wedding arrived and Mrs.
Frost now made one of the greatest mis-
takes Of her life. The passing years had
developed her from pretty bride into
strikingly beautiful woman with a decided
talent for the wearing Of clothes

would be on parade before the ultra-ex.

ton and Bar Harbor, she ordered breath
taking outfit. She burst into howeT-hlled,
darkened St Thomas's Church gotten up
like second Marie Antoinette in her
snepherdess costume.
One Of her sycophantic friends, it seems,
had discovered Mrs. Frost's resemblance to
Frances unhappy queen, and urged her al
ways to dress like her majesty!
This the lady frequently did at home and
it was becoming. A conservative church
wedding, however, in the Vanderbilt family,
was no place for a sensational shepherdess,
wearing Vatican plaits and panniers Of
priceless brocades, topped by a Vatican
hat with long velvet streamers! The ef-
feet was that Of circus dancer appearing
at a prayer meeting. With one fell swoOp,
the lady's chances were gone completely;
she had made herself ridiculous, than
which there is no greater social blunder.
Her secretary threw up her hands in
despair, but finally promised to stay on the
lob a little longer. A new campaign was
started which called for Mr.. Frost's assist
anee. BY hook or by crook the wives Of men
with whom he had financial dealings were
persuaded to call upon Mrs. Frost, and this
marked a new era in American society-an
era in which finance was called upon to
play the social game. A few years later z.
n Hartman played the game to finish,
and made as great killing on Fifth avenue
as anv he ever made on the Street.
Mrs e. more beautiful than ever, was
now known as the best-dressed woman ID

sumptuous clothes, and her appearance, at
the Opera or at Sherry's always created 2
real sensation. But never again dlo She at-

which means a ball given for some three

This Of course. did not satisfy Mrs. Frost;
her lovely brown eyes saw falrer Visions.
In the meantime she met Hamilton Wilkes

Elihu Frost. Here, finally, were all the ele-
ments for domestic smash-up-the eterhal
triangle.
Cary was not only kin to Colonel John
Iooob A stor-he was one Of the best-known
and most popufar men in New York, rae
ing enthusiast and a yachtsman.. His life
held it's tragedy, too. Ten years before
meeting Mrs Frost he fell desperately IN
love with a young widow, Mrs. Morrell,
daughter Of Mrs. Helen T. Bostwick and
sister of Albert c. Bostwick.
Mrs. MorreIl had a large fortune in her
own right and incidentally was engaged
to marry another man. Cary was an I'M
fortunate lover and absolutely refused to
take no for an answer. Within month
he beat the other man to the altar Win
the charming widow.
For three years he was wildly happy and
then his wife became addicted to drink.
In 1905 she was declared mentally UNIT to
manage her. own affairs. She died year
later after a period Of frightful sorrow and
unhappiness. This experience saddened
The Washington times., 1919-08-10

Cary so noticeably that his only sister.
Miss Kate Cary, Of LenOx, and his fntis
mate friends decided that he would never
marry again. His sudden interest in Mrs.
Frost two years later was therefore not
taken seriously.
In April. 1903, Mrs. Frost left her home
and husband without his consent and
went to Reno. She secured her divorce on
December is, and within three lays was
speeding toward New York. Society had
forgotten all about the beautiful Mrs
Frost when a report was published the
day before Christmas that Cary had met
the divorce ct q station two hundred miles
east Of Reno and married her on the train.
This report turned out to be false, for it
was not until January 1 that the Eidower
and the Divorce were married.
As the wife Of "Herks Cary, the bride
expected to gain her long desired goal But
alas! The most discouraging years Of all
we're facing her, for she was In that black
est Of social holes, she was in society but
not Of it. Cary took "a house in Newport.
and made valiant effort to have the col
ony accept his wife As Of old, she was
always marvelously dressed and ieweled.
But it was all done in about the way one
throws bone to stray dog. When Win
ter came there was no effort to win New
York. The couple went to Palm Beach and
there Mrs. Cary was really in her element.
1t was no trouble at all TO become the
leader Of Palm Beach society, and her sue
cess was immediate
Until Mr.. Cary died two years ago the
couple went their weary round-Newport,
Lenox, where Kate Cary lived; Palm Beach
aAd White Sulphur.
Mrs. Cary was not giving up her New
York career. She was simply making
noble effort to live down her divorce and
make a few solid friends in Newport and
Lenox. Cary's death was the final knock
out, for it came just when she was ready to
make another assault on New York. But
cate seemed ever against her. If society
had not accepted her as Hamilton Cary's
wife, what chance did she have as his
widow!
When her affairs were Strengthened out
Mrs. Cary took her large fortune and went
to France to do war work. There she met
the charming Baron de Cartier de
Marchienne
The Baron also had a domestic history.
Years ago, when Baron de Moncheur was
Belgian Minister to this country. De Car
tier was counsellor to the legation. He
fell In love with Alice Draper COlburn. a
niece of General W. F. Draper, and a great
heiress During the engagement her health
failed and she was sent to Liberty, N Y,
for treatment. While there the Baron in
sisted on marrying her, and they were
happy together until her death
Until meeting Mrs. Cary the Baron had
displayed no interest in any womap s.nce
the death Of his wife. His marriage was
therefore great surprise all around.
And so the little New England girl is at
last, after twenty years, realizing her ambi-
tons. 1t has been a weary pull and one
filed with tragedy and heartbreaks, but
her victory is complete, She win be Of the
inner circle not alone in New York and
Washington, but in Brussels, Parishes,
even in London! To have attained all this
surely a woman would strive much.

The GreenvilIe Fair

We are in receipt of copy of the
premium list CT the Greenville Fair,
which event is to take place in that
city starting in August 10 and lasting
through until August %. The Green
vile fair is looked forward to by
many local people and not a little
interest is centered in it by our
people, who always get their moneys
worth when they go up there to take
it in. With but very few exceptions
the attractions at the fair are always
good and when the Greenville fellows
get something that should not have
been allowed on the grounds they
make short work of getting rid of it,
thus insuring the majority of cases a
lot of high class novelties and other
entertaining features. The premium
list is the work of the Greenville In
dependent Printing Company job de-
partment and is really work of
which the fair officials, the city and
the printer can feel proud.

Do not keep your box of ointment
Till the friend you love has fed;
Break it now, and let it's fragrance
Bless the living; for the dead
Do not need the sweet amounting;
Lifeless clayscan never know
Of it's sweetness; but the wounded,
Broken-hearted, need it so.
Dc not keep your choisest blossoms
For the casket and the grave
Bear away to some poor mourner,
They may comfort, cheer and save;
Carry them, with all their perfume,
And their beauty, rich and rare,
Into homes where hearts, sore bur-
dened,
Bravely strive with want and care.
Be not sparing Of your treasures;
Scatter with lavish hand;
Since you have received so freely,
Freely give is His command.
Deeds of kindness, love and mercy,
Words of tenderness and praise,
Shower them on friends around you,
Help to brighten life's dark days.
Use the balm of love most freely,
With its soothing, healing powers;
Scatter all a-down life's highway
Mercy's sweet and fragrant flowers;
Open wide the darkened windows,
Pour Gods blessed sunshine IN;
Cheer the lonely, win the hayward,
From the tempter's path of sin.

A Billion of Bug Food

The man who has to pay high
price for his loaf of bread rarely
stops to ask what are the causes that
tend to make the food supply scarce.
If he would look into the matter he
would see some of these causes are
perfectly renewable. Perraps then
he would be willing to join in COM
munity efforts to overcome them.
Take the matter of the destruction
of food staples by insect pests. These
losses are estimated to total $780,
OOO,O0 or mere annually. Not mere
ly do these increase the price of bread
but they reduce the supply of grains
available to feed to meat producing
animals. The people pay for it every
time they buy loaf of bread, pound
of bacon, or beef roast.
One insect alone, the Hessian fly.
destroyed 60,000,000 bushels of wheat
in 1917.
Now what can be done to prevent
this enormous loss I?
First, save the birds. Eevery man
that kills a useful bird or every boy
that destroys a birds egg, is killing
a form of life that feeds on harmful
pests.
Second, fight the pests with modern
science. Among the successful plans
for doing it is the scheme of strips
of road oil laid around grain fields.
In one middle Western state last
summer, $1,000 miles of this barrier
was laid at cost Of $4,000 to the
owners and $4,000 to the state. 1t
saved 81 100000 worth of corn. Now
if preventive measures could be in
PRODUCED everywhere, food would not
cost as high.
The farmer can well afford TO spend
money literally to secure the best |
Scientific insect killing work on his |
products. The consuming public |
should demand that the agriculture
Of the state and nation
have All the money they need to use

ing interests should do their utmost /

T. b. c. Hard on Smart People


The more intelligent you are, the
harder it is for you to put yourself
into the frame of mind that is best
suited to getting cured from tubercu-
losis.
This is one of the contributions that
a Michigan Anti-tubersulosls assocla-
ton representative brought back from
the national convention at Atlantic
CITY from a discussion OF the psycno-
logy of the tuberculosis victim.
The more intelligent person is,
the more interpretive he is likely to
be, on the average, it was declared.
He tries to figure out for himself
how the germs in his lungs are get
ting along. He worries about them
and his thoughts are frequently on
them. And this worry is one OF the
chief obstacles to a cure.
The less intelligent person does
not know much Of anything about his
internal machinery. Disease is a
mystery to him and he places conf
dence in the physician attending him.
leaving the whole conduct of the case
to him. 1t is more easy to get such
a patient interested in some form of
light occupation that will keep his
mind occupied. And all this helps
tremendously in affecting a cure.
The experience of tuberculosis
workers in the army has confirmed
this principal again and again. The
person who has high degree Of in
telligence is generally unwilling to
abdicate mentally and give himself
wholly into the care Of his physician
while the less intelligent person more
readily does this.
But that is the first lesson for
every tuberculosis victim to learn, the
Michigan association advises. No
matter how well posted he may be
and no matter how good a mind he
may have, he can't conduct bis own
case. He must entrust himself with |
out reservations to q competent ply
stefan and try to keep his mind busy |
with interests that will make him
forget his disease.

recently man was arrested for
shooting robins and two cedar wax
wings. When we consider that each
year the people of the United States
pay toll of 81 900 100000 to insects
the reason for protecting cur native
birds is apparent.
Some birds feed almost entirely on
the seeds of weeds, others on field
mice and others on small rodents.
Hawks and owls are considered out
laws, and the average citizen wants
to shoot them if he can. 1t has been
estimated that each hawk or owl kills
on an average 1000 mice year.
