Beautiful
Instead of distributing our Cal
endars indiscriminately vve have
decided this year to give them
away only to those who ask for
them.
They are too beautiful to risk in
the mail so wo shall only give
them to people calling at the store
for them on Monday, December
27th. If, however, you cannot be
here on that day we will, upon re
ceipt of your request by mail either
reserve one for you or mail one
free of charge.
Make your reservation, however,
as early as possible. Calendars
like these won’ t go ‘‘a begging”
long.

Count Caspar Gotwald at twenty-one
came Into bis ancestral estates. As
for family respectability, his inher
itance was large; landed property
and money were inversely small. In
bis father’s time the schloss that had
been in tbe family for hundreds of
years had passed Into the possession
o f an American millionaire.
When
Caspar received his inheritance it was
the remains o f everything the fam ily
had owned turned into money and in

The young man concluded that be
might os well avail himself o f the
only other asset in bis possession—un
entry into the court circle o f Berlin.
The funds at his command would en
able him to keep sueb a position
through one season, after which he
would go to some country where he
would not be known and make a liv
ing the best way he could.
Had he realized that he would great
ly need this money in the new field,
that its possession would be a great
advantage to any one knowing how to
handle It. doubtless he would have
foregone ibis plan o f a brief career In
the gay world at Berlin and held on to
his funds. Lint Count Caspar was ns
ignorant o f business as a child, and it
is quite probuble th at considering this
ignorance, had he retained his inher
itance, he would uot have had the
slightest knowledge o f how to use it
to advantage.
So it was that one autumn Count
Caspar Gotwald appeared In Berlin,
presented his credentials and made his
appenranee hi that exclusive society
presided over by tbe kaiser and the
knlserin. He was the handsomest man
in tlie court circle that winter, the
most entertaining conversationalist and
the best dancer All the women were
in love*with him. Yet, singular as it
may appear, he seemed to have no fac
ulty for bettering his financial condi
tion by marrying a fortune, which be
might easily have done.
For this there was a reason. Among
those who entered Berlin society that
year was un American family named
Ruthbone.
W inifred Rathbone then
saw the gay world for the first time
as a young lady. Her father was n
retired banker and rich
The young
count met her and was conquered.
During the whole season he was sub
servient to her beck and «•all.
But
when tlie spring opened lie was uot be
trothed to her and had thrown over
half a dozen women any one of whom
would have been glad to marry him.
A fter the departure or the fair Wini
fred. Huron Geralt, one o f Count Cas
par’s intimate friends wtio knew o f
bis necessities, took him to tusk for
having wasted his opportunities.
"Since you could not get the Ameri
can. why did you not take one o f the
other women who were dying for
you?"
“ I did not ask Miss Rathbone to
marry me.”
“Did not ask her?”
“ No
In America they do not make
marriages as we do here. It is con
sidered beneath a man who has noth
ing to ask a woman o f wealth to mar
ry him.”
