Recent doings in Germany and elsewhere abroad, however, would seem to indicate that with theia it is now largely a case of "Othello't occupation's gone." But they need not cease from repining oyer our world relations. The subject of international marriages should afford them at least partial outlet for pent-up energies. Really, you know, when it comes to International marriages the situation is exactly the reverse of "splendid isolation.** It's really quite awful the way our fine Ainerlcaa women are marrying titles abroad -and deserting, the "Land of the free and the home of the brave* --to say nothing of the millions of good American dollars that go with them. Of course, there's nothing new about these international marriages. They've been going on for a long time. All middle-aged novel readers will remember when the subject was new and exotic enough to set Henry James wiggling and twisting through one of his subtle and intricate studies of international life and character. In fact, Jennie Jerome, born in Brooklyn, who revolutionized the, British idea of the American woman, married Lord Randolph Churchill away back in 1S74. At that time the American woman was looked upon in England, as on the continent, as a strange creature, with habits and manners something be* tweea a red Indian and a Gaiety girl. There was only one type. One was Just like the next. Uer dollars were her only recommendation. She was looked upon as a dangerous person, to be avoided. Jennie Jerome, however, had wealth, social post* tion, education and brains and her vivid brunette beauty was a sensation *in that day of the blond. She won over the Marlboroughs, captivated London and became an acknowledged social leader. Later, as the widow of "Randy" and the mother of "Winny" (Winston Churchlil) she became a political and literary power. In 1900 she married Capt. George Cornwallis-West and her power grew rather than diminished. This remarkable woman' retained her remarkable beauty remarkably. At . the marriage of her son--when she was nearly sixty--her hair was still raven black and she was said by the London newspapers to have appeared to be the Junior of the bride and to have been the most beautiful woman in the great throng is St St. Margaret's church, Westminster. It's an odd thing that right now, fifty yean ^ later, the next most famous American woman of ali these American brides should be so persistently in the limelight that beats on high-up personages, in Britain's public affairs. This American woman Is of course Lady Astor, the first woman to take a seat in the British parliament. And her career-Is a romance--no-less. She was Nancy WJtcher Langhorne of Virginia. She was the widow of Robert Gould Shaw when in 1906 she married Lord Astor, son of Wiriiam Waldorf Astor, great-grandson of the founder of the Astor family, who became an expatriate and received a title in England for his donations to roylU char* Itles. Consuelo Vanderbilt also married a Churchill-- the ninth duke of Marlborough. They are "now separated. She is the daughter of the late William K. Vanderbilt and her mother is now Mr* points from which these international marriages are to be regarded. One cannot indict all tlieae American women who marry foreign titles any $iore than one can Indict a whole nation. For It LB evident that some are real love matches. Not always does a fortune go with the bride. Social position has been the heart's desire of women, everywhere and always, and marrying the right kind of title abroad is a short cut to it. Besides, young women are oftefi "in love with love," the philosophers agree. So the myth of the "splendid Euroin lover" appeals to them, rather than the food American husband." • j On the other hand there are international mapltage8 where it looks to the average American as If the holder of the title were after money entirely and as If the American women did not get their money's worth. Anyway, it is a one-sided bargain. We get nothing In returh for a fortune and a citizen. There is, to be sure, an occasional exception by way of emphasis. We did not lose a citizen--and may have"gained one--when Miss Cornelia Vanderbilt, only child of the late George W. Vanderbilt, recently married Hon. John Francis Amherst Cecil, third son of Lord William Cecil. Her father's will provided that in order to inherit his estate at Biltmore, N. C., she must always maintain her residence in the United States. Mf. Cecil resigned from the British diplomatic service and Is assisting in the management of the estate, one of the show places of the country. 1 Up to the time of the World war international marriages were on the. Increase. An Incomplete list of the more noteworthy in a 1914 almanac totals about 250. Many of them caused a sensation In their day. The aftermath of others still finds Its way to the first page of the newspapers--for example, the marriage of Anna Gould to Count Bonl de Custellane and later to the Duke de Talleyra'nd- Perigord, Prince de Sagan, and that of Mary Victoria Lelter of Chicago to Lord CurSon, now earl of Kedleston. During the war the business International marriages fell olf. After the war came the Influx of French brides with their soldier husbands--not many fortunes there, one imagines. Now the business is booming again. They do jay that the 40 presentations at the Court of St. James this year through the American embassy would have been 600 had all the applications hy American women been granted. Anyway, 1924 has .^already broken all records with its long list of international marriages. Gossips of two continents are still talking ahoat the first international marriage of 1924--that of Jffary Mllllcent Rogers of New York, twenty, granddaughter of the late H. H. Rogers of Standard Oil fame and heiress to something like $40,- 000,000--well protected. In January she married Count Ludwlg Sulm von Hoogstraten, about forty, of an Austrian noble house. The count and his bride were married in the municipal building, New York, and took her parents. Col. and Mrs. Ilenry H. Rogers, entirely by surprise. They went to Paris. In April her father went to Europe and returned with the. countess. The count did not come, as he had pressing tennis engagements In , Berlin and Vienna. The gossips intimate that her father arranged matters so that the count may be able to devote all of his time to tennis abroad. An example of an international marriage which apparently affords little ground for carping Is that • of Prince Vlggo of Denmark and Miss Eleanor Margaret Green of New York last June. The bride is a granddaughter of Abram S. Hewitt, once mayor of New York, and a great-granddaughter of Peter Cooper, the philanthropist. Her official title is Her Royal Highness Princess Eleanor of Denmark, countess of Rosenborg. There Is no great amount of money on either side. It is stated that Prince Vlggo was obliged to waive all rights of succession to the Danish throne of King Christian X, both for himself and his heirs. When Mrs. Jacob Wendell of ^few York (and Hertfordshire, England) recently announced the engagement of her second daughter, Phllippa. to Randolph' Algernon Ronald Stewart, twelfth earl of Galloway, another glimpse was given of tbe realm of pure romance, where American dollars Paper Makers Complain of Scarcity of Rags It seems like harking back to early Jays that the manufacturers of highgrade papers have called on Secretary Hoover of the Commerce department !o aid them In procuring a reserve ttock of rags. Some of the mills had less than a week's supply on hand «vhen they made the request, and none of them had any considerable ttock. In the days following the Revolution paper manufacturers advertised In the newspapers urging housewives lo save their rags that they might have a sufficient supply for their use. This was before the discovery thai paper could be- made from wood pulp, says the lirockton Times. In the early days of paper making tombs were rifled and the wrappings of mummies were converted Into pa per. For many years most of the rag stock for paper mills had come from •cross the sea. Smyrna was the greaf shipping point, and thousands of tons were sent here every year. Due perhaps to the prevailing poverty, Europe Is sending less than half the usual amount of rags. Probably the people are still wearing them. where she could live cheaply. She also lived QttW* ly--and the two titled Bultors had to come to tbe country home to do their courting. Rich? Yes, Indeed; both earls are very wealthy. And oh, the family tradltlohs that 'go with their titles! For the brides of the House of Carnarvon always have to face at Bretby Hall the ghost of Lady Chesterfield, an ancestress of the tline of Charles II who visits them In the night and warns them against the wiles of men. And the brides of the house of Gallowuy always receive one visit from that ancestress who was no less than the bride-of Lammermoor, famed In song and story. The story of the marriage of Ava Alice Muriel Aator to Prince Serge Platonovltch ObolensUl Neledlnskl Meletskl shames fiction. Bhe is the greatgreat granddauKhter of the original John Jacob Astor (1703-1848), with a fortune of ten or fifteen millions, and a relative by marriage of Lady Astor. He la a penniless member of an old Russian fatally. Badly wounded In the World war, he was nursed back to health by the widowed Princess Barlutlnaka, daughter of Csar Alexander II by his second (and morganatic) wife, Catherine Dolgorukl. He married her. After the revolution In It us sla they went to London, where Princess Obolemkl went on the concert atuge to nupport them. Sh« got a divorce from him In London last spring, charging "neglect, Infidelity and nonaupport." Soon after her mother died, leaving an eutate of about $30,000,000--which was beyond the Prince's reach. Nothing daunted, the prince turned around and married Alice Astor. The fortune of the second Princess Obolenskl comes from her father, John Jacob Astor IV (1804-1012), who went down with the Titanic. Her mother was Ava Lowle Willing of Philadelphia, who Is now Lady Illbblesdule, the wife of an eccentric Briton who is seventy and owns 4,800 acres. The father and mother of Alice were divorced in 1009. llei* father then married Madeleln Force, who Is now Mrs. W. K. Dick and tbe mother of John Jacob Autor V. Mathllde Oser's marriage In 1028, which set the international gossips fluttering, links the Standard Oil and Harvester millions. Mathllde la the daughter of Harold F. McCoriulck and Mrs. Kdlth Rockefeller McCormick and the granddaughter of John D. Rockefeller. Uer parents have beea divorced and McCormick Is now the husband of Ganna Walska-De Dulgorn-Fraenkel-Cochrane-Mc- Cormlck, a Polish woman whose beauty, marriages and prima donna aspirations have Interested two continents for several years. Mathllde, at sixteen, with her hair down her back, announced that she was going to marry Max Oaer, proprietor of a riding school in Zurich, whose age was varlouslj stated to be between forty-three and fifty seven j ears. And marry him she did. Her mother never gave her consent. Her father made her wait till she was eighteen. And now Mathllde Oser has a daughter, presumably heiress to untold McCormick and Rockefeller millions. Mrs. William B. Leeds, widow of the "Tin-Plate King," Is said to have attained higher foreign rank than any other American woman. In 1020 she married Prince Christopher, brother of King Coa> stantine of Greece. George II is now king and Princess Anastasla, who was originally Nonnle May Stewart of Cleveland. Ohio, died last year. Her son, William B. Leeds, at nineteen married Princess Ksenla of Russia In 1921. 8he Is a daughter of a sister of the late King Constantino. Young Leeds, who presumably retains much of the Leeds fortune, is still an American citlsen ""d says be intends to live In America. Resting Pools "Help Salmon Climb Dams ."•'Ay) There are several Important rivers on our west coast and in Alaska where power dams are being strenuously opposed by those interested in the fish Industry on the ground that It would stop the niu of salmon. Considering the vast quantities of fish that are canght and commercially distributed all over the world, the opposition would seem to be folly Justified. However, means have apparently now been / found to dispose of the difficulty and to satisfy all concerned. The United States burean of fisheries ha8 heretofore believed that flsh would not pass a dam more than thirty feet high, regardless of the number of flsh ways. This opinion Is said to have been revised after some experiments In California, where large schools of fish have passed dams of considerably greater height This has been made possible by providing a series of "resting pools," so that the salmon do not have to make the long cliinh in one uninterrupted efTort.--Compressed Air Magaslne. * Her Innermost Thought Gars ton was always telling bis friends what a dear, sweet, loving little creature his wife was--and such an excellent housekeeper.
