The Baroness von Malizan

She ls Wearing the Celebrated
 Family Pearls.
 to direct the building of piggeries and personally to inspect her stock. ln- stead of the pleasant sound of barking hounds and the whitney of horses heard in other days, the castle grounds echoed with the grunts and squeals of pigs.
 Now and then the Baroness caught the furtive glances of her visitors as they curiously eyed the pearls-which she always wore. Everyone expected them to turn black and to see the mis- tress of the castle sicken with despair with the downfall of her business, which 1t was thought must surely come. But at these times, the Baroness smiled perhaps with secret satisfaction. And well she might. As the sausage busi- ness flourished, the pearls took on . new and delicate coloring.
 She now felt sure that she had been right. On that night long ago, in the sixteenth century, when the goblin is said to have appeared in the dim!y lighted bed-chamber of the Baroness Eva Regna von Maltzan, and pre- sented her with the pearls, he had cer- tainly intended that the gift should be used as symbol of good luck.
 According to this legend the gift followed an act of kindness shown toward the eery little goblin by the Baroness Eva. The Baroness had first been awakened by the gnome. who said that the oil from a lamp on the table near her bed was dripping on his grandchild. This goblin grandchild was of course invisible to the Baroness. but she courteously moved the lamp, w,hereupon the goblin thanked her and vanished.
 Next night he appeared again hold ing the lovely pearls. He told the Baroness Eva that they would bring good luck unless they were sold by some member of the family or one of them was injured. He also said that they would foretell disaster by chang. ing color. On one occasion they are supposed to have become discolored just before an earthquake party de- stroyed the von Malzan castle and at another time when an attempt was made to sell them disaster threatened at once.
 When jewel experts were told of the pearls remarkable sensitiveness to happenings in the world they dismissed the whole idea as . medieval myth that had been built persistently by simple association. They admitted that pearls taken from the sunlight for . long time can turn color, but they in- sisted that the discoloration has noth. ing to do with the life" and death" of the gems, because pearls never really live. They pointed out what a remarkable thing association is and that once we begin to believe that

 tivities of the Baroness with disdain, are lauding her defiance of the super. stitious tradition surrounding the fam lily pearls.
 With the family fortune somewhat depleted by the ravasss of the late war. the Baroaess hit upon . scheme that shs hoped would replenish the von Maltxan co6srs. Sausages are certainly an important item in the daily menu planned by the German hausfrau, and the great kitchen of the castle could bs turned into miniature factory with very little expense. But the pearls-what color would they a. sums if the Baroness took this unprs- csdented step? Would they blacken and portsnd doom as they had on other conspicuous occasions in the history of the royal family!
 Only . short time before. when her brother, Baron von Maltzan then Ger. man Ambassador to the United States was suddenly killed In an airplans acci. dent, the pearls were fearfuIly taken from their ancient caskst, and again the veraeity of the lsgsnd of the von Naltsan pearls was evidenced.

When news of the sudden death of the Baron reached them, the family hurried to the old castle to examine the pearls.

that she was already con- templating a venture into the sausage industry and that this daring step would afford her an excellent op- portunity to add a new and happier story to the many sad ones long recounted about the gems if her as. sumption was correct. She won her point, and in spite of the entreaties of her rela- tives carried the pearls back to her castle at Schulenberg.
 Several days later a tradesman appearing at the door of the castle, prepared for his usual morning chat

 such a strange picture at the castle.
 But the picture of the Baroness with the pearls clasped around her aristocratic throat, and dressed in . housemaid's apron, was no more un- usual than the orders she gave. The tradesman thought he must be dreaming. When on succeeding days the Baroness continued to ap- pear in this costume and give similar orders, he knew that he must be wide awake, and that here in the quiet village of Luebeck an un- precedented event was taking place before his eyes. The vague rumors heard in the market place must be true. The Baroness had indeed turned her own kitchen into saul sage factory. She had really pressed the family servants into new serv- ice, and she was personally work ing with them in the backstairs realm.
 If the countryside had not been> so curious to see the ancient castle in its new activity. it would have drawn back in horror. But the tempt tion was too great, and the village sought every excuse to call at u kitchen of the castle to see this gent woman turned business manager ar cook. The hustle and hustle of u long slumbering estate told plain that the royal sausages, seasoned l the Baroness herself, have met wi the enthusiastic approval of nation connoisseurs.
