she married him. But when he finds he Is
expected to live up TO her ideal Of another
man-and such a strenuous ideal as that
of the Duke Of the Abruzzi-well! Yet
exactly that standard so the stories told
IN fashionable society rup was what Mr.
Hits beautiful wife held up to him con
stantly as beacon to follow.

of the world when there was so much com
fort at home. He didn't see why he should
go out and shoot lions and hippopotamuses
and climb mountains II he didn't want to.
According to the gossip that The divor.'t
has let loose there were many occasions
when Mrs. Hit drew unflattering compar
sons between popular, easy-going BILLY"
and the heroic achievements Of her forme:
sutton. When "Billy" came in blown from

able importance in the eyes Of the royalty
loving ambassadors and their encourages.
Even to-day, with royalty on its death bed,
a glory continues to shine about anything
appertaining to king!
Whenever foreign visitors of high degree
visited Washington Katherine was invited
TO meet them, and always she was ex-
planned as the girl who broke Abruzzi's
heart" Her husband speedily realized this
and 1t did make him peevish.
Talk about being known as the husband
OF a noted woman" he is reported IS
grumbling. Here am !, free.born Amer
lean, and all get is being called the hus-
band of the woman the Duke of Abruzzi
wanted to marry. I don't like it,"
But what, 1t is said, annoyed him more
than anything else was a collection of pho.
tographs which Mrs. Hit kept on view a.
"Hazelhurst.' There was none in her
boudoir, but in the library and drawinS
room there were many. Visitors often
commented upon them.
To paraphrase Tennyson's Charge Of
the Light Brigade"-there was Abruzzi 10
the right of Mr.. Hit, Abruzzi to the left
of him and so on. These photographs
showed the Duke in full action. There
was one portraying him up in the clouds
atop his high point on the Himalayas, an.
other among the north polar ice, another
standing by an elephant and a rhino he
had just killed. another charging an en-
ragged lion, and so on and so on. The one
peaceful portrait, or what Billy called
human" showed the Duke In the decora-
tive regatta Of the italian court.

these pictures. II was no use for her hua

better half. II so happens that this young
woman, spectacular figure in American
society, has a side to her nature little
known to her friends. Her family know
Of It and It was this that made the late
Senator Efkins hold a tight rein over her
during the Abruzzi romance
Mrs. Hit herself is fond of adventure,
she has the soul Of an explorer hidden un-
der her modern, social veneer When
Abruzh talked Of his adventures and mar.
row escapes her dark eyes glowed and she
longed to do the things he had done. So
ciety has always bored her. She, II left to
herself, would have married the Duke and
been happy to live with him In African
wilds or among Arctic icebergs.
The Somaliland adventure made a ire
mendous appeal to her heart and intelli-
gence. She decided. SO II Is said. to make
one last grand effort to turn her husband
into an American village builder-empirs
builders not being popular over here.
There are miles Of uncultivated land round
about the Virginia plantation. Mrs. Hit
studied II with an eagle eye. She talked
with engineers and architects.
Then, her plans made, she sprung her
surprise on Mr. HIT He was to turn this
waste land into model village for the
mountain and country people! There
should be model cottages with bathroom
apiece, a school, a library. hospital, q
chapel; everything, in fact, a modern VII
lage would need. Perhaps Mrs Hits eye
also saw a private railroad running Of
somewhere through the pines and scrub
oak.
Unfortunately, Mr.. Hit, her husband,
rebelled. Here was one thing he would
not even promise to try. village
builder! Absurd! He betook himself TO
Washington and goomed and gloomed.
The Duke was one man. He, William
Hit, was another. And that ended It.
= Mr. Hit went to his brothers house to
live. Mrs. Hit, thoroughly disillusioned,
went to Paris. Six months later she got
her divorce.
No longer will she have the task facing
her of turning an American country gem
tleman and social favorite into an imita-
ton Duke Of Abruzzi, explorer and en-
pire builder. Whether or not she win
marry again remains q secret.
Abruzzi is said to have determined to
live and die in Somaliland. Whether Mr."
Hits divorce will affect this te'ern
ton II Is impossible to say.
The world has changed and what was
, impossible eight years ago Is no longer so.
Katherine Elkins may yet become Duchess
Of the Abruzzi, and even put on the royal
robes Of Italy's queen.
The Washington times., 1922-02-19


Hit knew that too. Compare his own
photographs hidden away in a snap
shot album with this fighting array.
The best he could show in the way OF
action" was himself in kniskerbockers,
taken with q golf stick in his good right
hand. His dressiest picture showed him
in the pink coat and white breeks of the
Virginia hunting field. His biggest game,
shot by his own hand, was a wiley fox!
1t is always difficult to put a finger on
the one last straw that breaks a hus-
bands back. But down in Virginia, where
the Hits kept open house on what they
called the Plantation. their neighbors
think they know Just what sent Mrs. Hit
to Paris and her freedom.
During the years that Mrs. Hit was
holding him up as the perfect example to
her husband, Abruzzi was doing many
characteristic things. The war came and
he went in heartily for all sorts Of dan
gerous Jobs. Already a hero to the tenn
peramental Italians, his war record made
him a demi-god. He undertook commits
sions that should have led to his death,
but fate always spared him and his every
act was cabled to this country.
Fully to understand the peculiar hold he
kept on Mrs. Hits imagination 1t must be
realized that this Italian sutton sincerely
and deeply loved the girl he could not
marry. This was the one great love OF
his life, and its hopelessness intensified
his love OF adventure. There is no doubt
that Abruzsi will go down in history as "a
one-woman lover"
Life in Europe became intolerable, fol
lowing the excitements of war. All about
him the Duke saw empires smashed and
kings become something less than COM
moners. There must have been hours
when he cried to himself, IF she had only
waited we might be married, now that
royal birth has become Of so little &C
count"
When he saw princes and princesses Of
the blood marrying into the ranks Of the
common people he must have ragged
against the old order that had separated
him from his "one woman" How the
gods of love and Of war must have
laughed at the unfortunate hero!
There was, OF course, much that the
Duke might have done in the reconstruc-
tion OF Europe, but he was neither a dip
lomat, a politician nor business expert.
His soul longed for action in strange
places. So, in 1921 we find him In farloff
Somaliland, an African colony belonging
to Italy. Desperate for excitement, the
Duke has secured blanket order from
his King and cousin to run Somaliland to
suit himself. When he first arrived In
this colony in northeast Africa he posed
as a hunter after big game. On his trips
ne studied his people and their needs. and
then the day came when he put his plans
in action.

Georgia Wives
 Would Allow
 Hubby's Fishing

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 24.-The senate committee on wild lands of the Geor- gia legislature has before it a bill in-
 troduced by Senator Dennis Fleming of Dougherty county to make it nec- essary for husbands in this state to
 obtain permission of their wives be-
 fore going fishing.
 Senator Fleming, a fisherman him. self and a married man, was merely exercising his keen Irish humor when he introduced the measure. and had no idea of hearing an echo expressed through the curiosity of so famous a person as Hudson Maxim, the inven-
 tor and author.
 In a letter tc S. G. McLandon. sec
 retary of state, MT. Maxim wrote: T see by the New York Tribune that a bill has been introduced in the sen- ate of the state of Georgia by Sena- tor Dennis Fleming which contains some provisions so drastic that it has
 occurred to me that the whole thing must be a joke"
 Quoting provisions of the bill as | described in the Tribune story, that "any and all married men who shall go fishing without the consent of their
 wives shall be guilty of a felony. and their sentence shall not be less than | five or more than twenty years at | hard labor" the inventor wrote: T shall deem the courtesy very much 1 if you will let me know whether or
 not such legislation is being proposed | in the State of Georgia. As I am writing a book on lawless legislation
 in the United States, I am gathering any striking bits of legislation which
 may be useful for my work.

X9 Diet and Health 1sryssr zI By Lulu Hunt Peters. MD ] Asdhore ef Diet and Health, pihh Kep to Ae cah~ss

it is said that if we will take care of our muscles, the fat will take care of itself. Heavy massage of the arms will be beneficial as well as special exercises for them. For fat hips and abdomen, the trunk exer- cises and kicking and rolling are in- dicated. Some people complain that they get dizzy when they roll, but it is not necessary. You can lie on your back, roll over on your ab- domen on one side. then to your ab- domeu on your other side-sort of a rocking motion. This does not re- quire much space and is a very good exercise.
 For heavy ankles. the exercises that exercise the muscles around the ankles such as standing on your toes and coming down on your heels, dancing, etc, are good. Deep mas sage of the ankles given by yourself, kill give a good trunk and arm ex- ercise at the same time. | The size and shape of ankles are more or less inherited characteristics, like the shape of the nose or the
 color of the eyes. However, there is no doubt that rolls of fat on ankles
 can be eliminated.
 | Fruit Diet
 There is no better way for quick
 reduction than an exclusive fruit l diet. You can use a. mixture Of fruits, or just one fruit. During the grape season, going on a. grape diet.
 and in the peach season, peach diet I-oranges, of course, ypu can get at all times. Fruits are comparative ly low in caloric value. but high in
 mineral matters and vitomins. Two
 moderate sized apples, a small bunch | of grapes, about cupful, a large
 orange, one-half a large grape fruit.
 a medium sized banana-al are 100 Galleries each.
 If you take 1000 Cs during the fday, theoretically you should lose
 more than a quarter of a pound a day. Practically, I have found in
 many cases that the loss is greater
 than this. This fruit diet is a pleas
 ant way of reducing and could be
 kept up a week or longer with bene-
 fit.

CHOOSING A SKIN BLEACH.

There have been so many inquiries regarding skin bleaches recently, that I feel there is need Tor enlightenment concerning these lotions
 There are many ways of bleaching the skin, just as there are for bleach ing fabrics; but only the simpler ones can be depended upon not to prove injurious. If a comparison could be drawn between skin and materials, the former would be found much more sensitive. to the acton or r, bleach than the latter. It is surpris- ing how many women there are who would never trust the bleaching of their linens to any other than the slow method of sun and evaporation, yet they expect to bleach their skins overnight and are willing to use in- gradients that they would consider risky for their table damask. The reason for this. of course, is the fac they have never applied this same knowledge to the care of their skins.
 The simplest bleaches are the juices from vegetables or acid fruit and such bleaching, if done slowly, will not injure the skin. There may be some irritation from overriding the acid applications, and since all skin bleaching will neutralize the natural secretions at the time, oil or a cream should be worked into the pores later to make up to the skin it's Joss of the natural oils. There are some skins so sensitive that an oil massage will be needed even after the use of butter milk. Bleaching with lemon juice should always be followed by a cream or oil massage.

Answers to Correspondents

Answers to Correspondents Dear Doctor:
 q wonder if there is any way of reducing a certain portion or the body only? am normal in all parts, except in my arms and bust. AS am only a young girl, I am most conscious of it, and although l nave dieted, it seems to no avail. Also you mention something regarding a fruit diet, but do not give details.
 .'I can't tell you how many of my friends are on your diet; in fact, It is one of our main discussions. Don't we anti-fats love and dote on you!- Your unknown friend R."
 This question of localized fat I am hearing from very frequently, so please, take notice of my advice to
 my unknown friends. (Thanks, dear)
 Usually it will be found that the fat of the fattest places goes first
 when you are on a reducing diet and
 it is simply a question of time before you will see the results, In the case of a large bust. the 'corseting may be at fault rather than the bust. Un- less the corset has no bust, or very low bust, it will push the roll of fat on. the abd omen up, which pushes the bust up and makes it look ever larger. This gives a very top-heavy effect. It is much better and more graceful to wear a corset that does not do this.
 I will give you a paper soon or corsets and go into this question fur | ther
 In the question of massage for the | heavy breast: Because the breast is one of the seats of cancer in later | life and because cancer sometimes seems traceable to injuries, you mus | be very careful in handling the | breasts. However, I think firm evenly applied massage could do nc harm-and we are not going to be SC l in danger of cancer if we keep our
 selves in a normal, healthy condition and do not get, or remain, overweight | Our cancer statistics show that can
 cer is much more prevalent among i the weE-to-do-those who are pre- sumably more apt to over-eat at-thar among the poorer classes who do moi | have this tendency.
 As far as fat arms are concerned
