MRS. DoUNs NEE MISS sALL1E WARD.

with Mrs. Douns, we clip this article from
an exchange. While beauty sallie Ward
was also great favorite with every one
because Of her kindness and her great spirit
and determination-Kentucky traits
7 "Mrs. Douns, although nearly sixty
years CT age, is still a very beautiful wo-
man. The poraries of her youth
say that at twenty she was the most splen-
did creature this country has ever produced.
It was at about that age that the fame Of
her beauty attracted to Louisville NJ. L.
Bigelow Lawrence of the famous Massa-
chusetts family, and then one Of the richest
men in America. He was at the bead of
the great firm controlling the cotton mills
at Lawrence in that State. Her father,
Robert j. Ward, was at that time also
very wealthy man, and at his handsome
residence on Second and Walnut streets,
he entertained in fashion perhaps never
paralIelled even in the hospitable south
The wedding was the ofaire eelebre of the
period. Miss Sallie Ward had another
scarcely less beautiful sister, Miss Lily, who
was one of the bridesmaids. It was at
about that time that Matt Ward, her
brother, had made himself in a way the
most noted young man in the country by
shooting dead school teacher, who had
fogged one Of the younger Ward boys, his
pupil. Matt Ward was somehow acquitted
on the ground Of self-defense, and was shot
by guerillas during the war.
Mr.. Lawrence took his young wife home
to a stately establishment in Boston, but
the severe social atmosphere of the Puritan
city did not suit the beautiful Kentuckian.
While the breath of scandal, neither in her
youth nor since, has ever touched her fame,
she has always been spirited and uncon-
ventional. There was a merry and brill
liant social group in that period of Louis
ville's history. Gifts members besides the
Ward sisters, there we're Miss Jennie Smith,
the heiress Of her day, who afterwards
became celebrated in New Orleans society
as the wife of Mr.. Built Miss Susan
Rudd, who married Clark Fitzhugh, and
afterwards Judge E. NJ, Huntington, and
who was Miss Sallie Wards chief rival as
the most beautiful woman in America the
witty and eloquent Tom Marshal, who once
kept Congresr spellbound by a speech last
ing twenty-four consecutive hours, and who
was much in love with Miss Smith Will

The HEsthetic Club met at the residence
of Mrs. Richard johnson, on 7th street.
i There were present about thirty-fve mem
bers AS the roll was called each mem
Der responded with quotation from some
writer. Mrs. D. L. Gray then read a hu-
morous selection, depicting a journey Of
the Mann family. Miss Bette Clark, by re-
quest, was then seated at the piano, and
played brilliant instrumental selection.
Mrs. Ffolich then read choice and interest
ing essay. A song was rendered by Mrs
Ches. Butler, Mrs, Kidder sustaining an
alto part. Mrs. Hampstead read an arti-
Gle upon the scenery Of the sky, the change
of cloud landscapes and the varying lights
over cloud masses; this was an essay of
great beauty from, perhaps, Lamb or Rus
kin, we did not learn the name of the au-
thor. A song was rendered by Mrs.
Alden Woodruff, Mrs. Bell accompanied,
the clear, sweet melody was entitled "Jesus
my Refuge" Mrs, Holman read poetical
selection Of great beauty. Mrs. Hamilton
also read poem which, graceful and of
pretty sentiment, closed the reading course.
Mrs Ches. Butler executed a brilliant In
strumental fantisie comique. A guest, in
troduoed by Mrs Upper, was Mrs. Hyde,
nee Miss Belle Boyd, who recited with
dramatic intensity, II am dying, Egypt,
dying" also "Money Musk" The lady,
who still keeps the name of Belle Boyd,
stated to the ladies of the club that she
was about to engage a children's opera and
spectacular performance, and wished to
secure the services of the little
daughters Of some of the ladies present
Shortly after Miss Boyd's Rotations the
club adjourned.
There were present: Mrs. Richard

Where it is convenient to allow
your boy to own colt or two in his
right, says the National Stockman,
and where the young fellow is suf-
ficiently manly to appreciate the ami
NAL for what he is, and shows suffici-
ent pride to want to make him all he
can become, it is both sensible and
profitable to give the boy chance.
Personal ownership offine stock, with
an understanding of its value, will do
more to develop in the youth (D a
liking for the farm aud ~ broad
and progressive spirit in connection
with farming than perhaps anything
else. Even q liberal education will
do less toward making all enthusiastic
farmer, filled with the better side of
his chosen business, unless it is ac-
companied by association with the
higher types of domestic animals.
Nothing is better calculated to de-
velop enthusiasm In the boy for good
stock than the ownership of q fine
horse. Its beauty, its spirit, its in
telligence, its susceptibility to train

with whom such animals come in
contact. Let your boy own colt.

At the Qairyman's convention at
Red Wing last week Miss Nina
Holmes was awarded the prize for
the best treatise OH Tie tto manufacture
of butter. Her remarks are sensible,
and directly to the point. We publish
them for the benefit Of Stevens County
butter makers.
"In the first place, to make good
butter you must have the cows III
good condition to make it. Hav a
good pasture for them in summer,
and plenty of good hay, good feed and
pure water in winter. Give them
straw for bedding and make them as
comfortable as possible. Then have
the milking done in clean manner.
Don't let any of the mixers dip their
hands in the milk pail and wash of
the COWS bag with milk. as I have
seen some do, but rup it off with
cloth in dry weather, and wash it off
with water in wet and muddy weather.
The next thing is to take proper care
of the milk. See that the milking
utensils and cans are carefully washed
