Women in tailor-made gowns and orchids, “concentrating” in hushed and darkened draw- ing rooms, have met the mysteries of Esoteric Buddhism and bowed before the Sublimities of the Seventh Sphere. Most of this, fortunately, is fad and does no particular harm. Every now and then, however, somebody goes off the track. Of late divorces, alienated affections, neglected families, absurd wills and other cascs of irregular living among these “devotees” have pointed with increasing plainness to the truth— “Oh, East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet.” The best chunk of Indian wisdom we have seen in a long time : is contained in the remarks of an Indian gentleman newly arrived r in this country from Bombay, who asks: | “Why do you Americans run after etrange gods when you have) such good ones of your own?” ,, After explaining how thunderstruck he has been to hear society women he has met here professing with their first words the faith of his forefathers, he declares: | *, “I have made a careful study of comparative religions. Yours ig ds good as any in the East, and I have been shocked to see some of your American women running after Swamis. Yours is a goodly, godly heritage. Stick to it.

NE HUNDRED AND NINETY-FOUR YEARS ago to-day | O an English woman, wife of the British Ambassador to 7 Turkey, then living with her infant son at Belgrade, took | a step which has since led to the saving of millions of lives and i.:. eidentally to the exchange of millions of hard words. She had the boy innoculgted with the smallpox. The practice, well known in Turkey, was utterly unused 2nd anfamiliar in Western Europe. In one of her letters from Adrian- ople the year before, the Jady wrote to a friend in England: . “The emalipo2, 80 general and so fatal amongst ua, ts (here) entirely harmless by the invention of ingrafting, which is the term they give it.

I AM PATRIOT ENOUGH TO TRY TO BRING THIS USEFUL INVENTION INTO FASH- 10N IN ENGLAND." The lady kept her word. She brought it to England. ie had her daughter innoculated there. She fought horrified ‘i 1 men. She faced bravely the attacks of the clergy, who de- * mounced the innovation from the pulpit as “an impious attempt to take the issues of life and death out cf the hands of Providence”(!) The common people were taught to hoot at her as an unnatural mother, until she wrote to her sister: “I have such a complication “ ur of things both in my head and my heart that I do not very well} : know what I do, and if I cannot settle my brains your next news! of me will be that I am locked up by my relations,” Nevertheless, innoculation and its later development, vaccina- | Yon, steadily won their way until we find that while in 1721 nearly | eight per cent. of the population of Boston died of smallpox, from & Schooldays 1800 to 1840 vaccination so far checked the disease that only ibe ‘ twenty persons died of it in those forty years, | cx = Some time since an English doctor, from the records of more -— + than 15,000 cases in the smallpox hospital, calculated that while the Em WAS THE unvaccinated died at the rate of 3% per cent., the vaccinated died | ( RePY.

The youth was famous as a heartbreaker in the gay French court, And already the number and frequency of his conquests and bis Nghtning speed in transferring his heart from one woman to another had | Won for bim the nickname of “The Inconstant.” Washington invited Chateaubriand to dine with him, and learned the Frenchman had come to the United Siates in order to search for the | “Northwest P: that had baffled every explorer since ndric Hud- ton, The President pointed out the terrible hardships and obstacles that {lay im the way of such a discovery, Chateaubriand replied in true courtier | fashion: | “It is surely easier to discover a Polar passage than to create a mighty | Ration out of nothingnesa—as Your Excellency has done.” |__ Nevertheless, Washington's common sense advice checked the explorer's aeal, | Chateaubriand merely wandered about civilized America for awhile—making no | Httle impression on American girls’ hearts in Boston and Philadciphia and | New York—then visited a few Indian tribes, with the object of studying thelr customs, Whether or not he would have set out then on the Northwest | age hunt cannot be sald. 7 bile tn @ settler’s log cabin he came across a ta j@ English newspaper that told him his beloved sovereign, King Louts XVI. of France, had been kicked off the thro 4 had been imprisoned. This news sent the loyal aubriand hurrying back to Vrance—much too late to ervice to the Ki any way, but in ainple time to plunge into @ love With one Mile, Cele |de la Vigne Buisson. He and Celeste were soon married. According to one chronicler: “She was his faithful, tf neglected wife.” | The Reign of Terror was at its height, and the royallst Chateaubriand was forced to flee for his life from France. For years he knocked about Kurope, | often half starved, picking up a living as writer and painter, His book “Atala,” | founded on American Indian legends, later made him a hero in the ary | World. He came back to Paris whi poleon Bonaparte's power was be- | inning to be felt, and for a time, of the Corsican, had all ¢ jeminine adoration his conceited, shallow craved. The great Mme. Stael—hideous, brilliant, and as vain as C! jand himself—is said to hay adored him, But before the affair had continued for any length of time Napol ordered her to leave France. Chateaubriand held high political office under the Emperor, until the latter's brutal tyranny so disgusted him that he threw over his position and proceeded |to endanger his life by writing fierce denunciations against the Bonaparte dynasty. In 196, Chateaubriand, to gratify the caprice of a woman who loved | him, made a pligrimage to Jerusalem. Soon after his return he enbdarked upon the foremost love affair of his life. The woman with whom he fell in love and who returned hig adoration @ thousandfold was Mme, Recemier, Mme, Recamler was the loveliest ivoman of her time. Sho was exquisitely | Deautiful and was possessed of great charm and high intellect. Napoleon him- in love with her, But she turned her pretty back on the Emperor and ot Hsten to his plea. She openly laughed at the love-making of Napo- | leon's brother, Lucien Bonaparte, and was deaf to the adoration of dozens of | other adorers. Rejecting all these, she fell hopelessly in love with the middle- aged and impecunious Ch: briand, ick of the flattery, the vanities and the weak- nesses that his own conceited, morbid character brought out in others, turned to her with absolute devotion. “You have transformed my nature,” he wrote to Mme. Recamer. ‘I know nothing more beautiful sor mere good than you.” After @ checkered career as author, artist, statesman, political retugee— | sometimes without a penny in his pocket, sometimes in jail, sometimes rich and famous—Chateaubriand went at last into retirement, avoiding every one but Mme. Recamier. He fell into a melancholy that was elmost a mania, Mme Recamler had by this time become blind. Age was blighting her beauty. The melancholy old man, lovingly tended and nursed and amused Iike a little child by the blind old woman who had been the reigning beauty of the world, lived on until 1848, dying in the throes of the “Revolution of '48,” whose arrival he had long ago prophesied.
