"VAMPS" WHO
MADE HISTORY
" Ne"spHpeF DyHu1o"eeI
THE ANGEL WITH THE FROZEN
HEART"
BY JAMES c. u
tO by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate.)

I N 1913, with the French revolution
L at its height, a fifteen-year-old
girl was married to a banker almost
fifty and all Paris smirked. But Paris
would have been ashamed If it had
known, as historians believe, that
Jacques Recamier was the father of
his bride, Jeanne, and married her so
that she might have his powerful pro-
lection. Throughout his life he kept
a paternal attitude toward her.
Nine. Recamier undoubtedly was one
of the most beautiful women who ever
graced Paris. An admirer said that
she had a complexion that is a bowl
of milk wherein float rose leaves" An
other tells us of her "orange-tinted
eyes, and all agreed that she vas "the
angel with the frozen heart"
From the weller Of the revolution
and the reign of terror Napoleon
emerged. When he had made him
self secure he looked about at the
beautiful women Of Paris and his fan
cy fell OF Nine. Recamier. He made
lazy love to her. But she refused
him. Napoleon, In a spiteful humor,
ruined her husband and banished her.
Then the two left for Italy. There
Prince Augustus Of Prussia fell in
love with the bankers wife and want
ed her to become his princess. Again
she declined. Lucien Napoleon, broth
er Of the emperor, lost his head over
her. After him came the gallant Cen
eral Bernadotte, and left disappoint-
ed. Benjamin Constant, the states
man, loved her, and she made him an
instrument of revenge against Napole-
on, but granted Constant nothing. Cen
eral Moreau was next, then Murat,
king of Naples. Nine. Recamier in
weighed him into co%nspiracies against
his master, who fell not long after
ward. And the Recamiers went back
to Paris, leaving Murat empty handed.
Nine. Recamier's salon became the
most brilliant center of the restoration.
Recamier died and a thousand suit
ors besieged his beautiful widow.
When she was more than fifty she
met the only man to whom her heart
was not Indifferent, Chateaubriand,
the author, a cranky, saddened man.
But even theirs was a platonic love,
for it seemed that her heart could not
be warmed and won. She tended him
IL his last days and died 0 after
ward. Perhaps she really loved him.

FIRST GOLD MIN1ED
Coins of the Time of Croesus Dis

Thirty Gold Pieces Uaearthed by
Psychologists in Buried Ruins of
Sardis, Ancient Lydian Capt.
tai in Asia Minor.

New York.-Thirty gold coins be-
longing to the first series ever minted
have been unearthed by American
psychologists who are working on the
buried ruins of Sardis, the ancient
Lydlan capital in Asia Minor. Fifteen
of them may come t. the Metropolitan
Museum of Art.
They are the coinage of Croesus, the
last king of Lydia, and the first great
international banker, whose name has
been a symbol of wealth for nearly
$500 years.
The coins were minted some time
between 561 3. c., when Croesus as
cended the throne of Lydia, and SAG,
when he was captured by Cyrus, the
Persian king, in the battle before Sar-
dis. Some of the 80 "staters,' as they
are called, are as bright as new mint.

The 30 pieces of gold, which was

thought to have been hidden by some
wealthy Lydian in SAG, while Sardis
was besieged by Cyrus. They were
found in a tomb.
Some of the coins were a little

Says His Prescription
Has Powerful Influence
Over Rheumatism

Mr.. James H.. Allen, of Rochester, n.
Y, suffered for years with rheumatism.
Many times this terrible disease left him
helpless and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of cease
less study, that no one can be free from
rheumatism until the accumulated impu-
rites, commonly called uric acid depos-
its, were dissolved in the joints and mus
c1es and expelled from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and finally
compounded a prescription that quickly
and completely banished every sign and
symptom of rheumatism from his system.
He freely gave his discovery. which he
called Allenrhu, to others who took it,
with what might be called marvellous
success. After years of urging he decid-
ed to let sufferers everywhere know about
his discovery through the newspapers.
He has therefore instructed Orange Drug
Co. and druggists everywhere to dispense
Allenrhu with the understanding that if
the first pint bottle does not show the
way to complete recovery he will gladly
return your money without comment.

PITCHER PROVES
 PLAYER CAN .. COME BACK

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 21.-"Death Vallev7 Jim Scott, leading pitcher this season of the Pacific Coast Base ball League, is disproving the theory that a baseball player never can come back. Once a world series star, but later released as a has-been, Scott has forged his way to the head of the Coast League in a manner that has attracted widespread attention.
 Bothered for several years by rheu- matism that made it increasingly diff ficult to get into condition, and by some extra pounds of weight that did not disappear until the season was we'll under way, Scott spent all of last winter hunting in the forests of Ore gon and appeared in fine trim this spring The results of his extra months of training were apparent in his pitching, which has been as baffling to Coast League batters this season as it once was to major leaguers.
 Scott was among the leading pitch CTS of the Chicago White Sox in the days when they were known as the "hitless winders," and was one of the first baseball players to don unl- form when the United States entered the war in 1917.
 Scott left firing locomotive on des' ert train for baseball. He began by devoting his spare hours to play in

PRINCE IS WATCHED FOR MARRIAGE SIGNS
 BY CURIOUS PRESS
T~ ,ate-

LONDON, Sept. 21.-The Prince of Wales and his private affairs just can't keep out of London prints.
 The Princes desire for a complete rest upon his return from India and his refusal to appear frequently in public caused a lull in the rumors con- corning his affaires de occur for a while, but once again the London press is busy with most carefully phrased in- timations of another possible romance.
 It is pointed out that the Prince has accepted an invitation to be the guest of Sutherland at Runrobin during the shooting season. There is nothing ex- citing about that, of course, but i'm mediately following this statement the careful London press points out that Lady Betty Butler will also be house guest of the Duke and Duchess of Suth- erland. Then follows tribute to Lady Betty, one of the delightful younger women of royal circles, full of charm and a wonderful dancer There the newspapers stop. You can draw your own conclusions whether there is romance afoot or not, but the intimated romances of royal circles have been so numerous of late that wary readers are getting a bit skepti- cal and are not taking much stock in these stories.
 Maybe it's difficult to be a Prince, because so many rumors are circulat- ed, and particularly does this apply to an unmarried prince. Every time the Prince of Wales dances with an attractive girl there are immediate ru- mors of a romance Maybe the Prince tired of this, but at any rate his recent failure to dance with the debutantes and girls of the younger set has caused some comment When the Prince goes to a dance now he picks out the married dancers as a rule, women who are members of his own family or close to the court and bestows upon them his courteous attention Probab- lv he would like to dance with the young unmarried girls but fears Dame Rumor.

GUILTY CONSCIENCE
 PROMPTS GIRL RETURN
 SMALL CHANGE STOLEN

MARSHFIELD, Ore, Sept. 21. - Stories of attempts to right some wrong done in the past are constantly coming to light, and now Marshfield wants to advance a rather unusual in stance of an attempt of this kind. A To- cal man and his wife recently received strange letter. On opening it, they discovered that it had been written from another part of the state by a young lady who formerly lived in the same apartment house with them
 The writer of the letter stated that the Marshfield man and his wife had frequently received her as visitor in their apartment At the time, they kept a quantity of small change in a receptacle near the kitchen door, where it would be handy for paying small bills. The girl said that she was in the habit of taking money from this receptacle, always small amount at a time.
 She wrote that she thought that the total amount she had taken was not more than $50, and enclosed a money order for that amount. In explanation for her action, she said that she had "been converted" and wanted to clear

 In 1917, month before the opening of the world series, but after the Chi cago team had clinched the American League pennant, he asked Comiskey for permission to drop out so he could enter an officers training camp at the Presidio of San Francisco. He was given a leave of absence and received his share of the world series mone| despite the fact that he did not play iE the contests.
 Scott secured a captains commits sion and at Camp Lewis, after winning fame as a grenade throWer, was made athletic officer of the camp.
