If an Englishman wants to succeed in public life, in fact, if he wants a mascot, he straightaway seeks out an American girl for his wife, says an exchange. That the American girl brings luck, fame and generally wealth to her English husband has been demonstrated over and over. Look at Curzon's career. Since he married Miss Leiter he has become Viceroy of India. Glance at the Duke of Marlborough. His fortune was rehabilitated by the taking of Consuelo Vanderbit to wife, and now he is to be made Lord lieutenant of Ireland. Lord Randolph Churchill married Miss Jerome, and became a member of the British Cabinet. Joseph Chamberlin is a power in English politics, and his wife was an American girl, Miss Endicott. Even Rudyard Kipling must be classed among the greatly successful Englishmen who have American wives. Truly the American girl is a treasure and nobody knows it better than the American boy.--Seattle Times."No Known Copyright The organization that has made the Item available reasonably believes that the Item is not restricted by copyright or related rights, but a conclusive determination could not be made.
