When ' tbo
Chamberlain-Endicott
oourtahlp began, It was by the design
and deliberate aunageuient of other
people.
M r. Chamberlain aad Miss
Endicott met at the Chinese Minister*«
ball,and took a turn or two, arm-in-arm,
about the ball room. I t waa enough.
T b e lr friend« a t once began the dinner«
and little maneuver«, nt which M r.
Chamberlain and Mias S s d iw tt were la-
variably guest«, They were thrown to
gether dally In this way by i t y . people'
whq gloried In making such a •‘good
match.”

One hostess gave a luncheon bi young
women and asked Mr. Chamberlain. He
was the only man present among twen
ty or more ladles. Even the husband of
the hostess was not asked. I need hard

And now the match-makers toe busy
again. In the same way, managing a
widower and two widows, the three very

The gentleman, though not a young
man, la a “great catch,” the match
makers say, not only on his own ac
count, but because of his high position.
The ladles who bare Just laid aside
their mourning—end It waa Ufe deepest
mourning—are attractive women, one
younger than the othor—perhaps fifteen
year« younger. They are not only at
tractive In personal appearance, bat
both are women of fascinating manner.
They are not rloh, but are too comfort
ably off to make a mercenary marriage.
T he sentiment of lore would hardly oon-
trol either of them, for th a t la with

The only temptation to a second mar

T he widower snd the

guests at a dinner. Then the gentle

another dinner. There 1» nothing like
