great effort 10 restore some of the social glo-
ries of Paris, which were SO much obScured
under the Grevy regime. She was active in
pushing her husband and in keeping his
name before she public, and never missed at
tending an official reception, so TO her he owes
10 a certain extent his present honors. While
she was going % all these receptions she was
taking notes Of the failures and errors of the
hostesses. and has thereby managed TO avoid
most OK them, now that she herself has to
give them. She is the daughter of a brilliant
man, Dupont White, the translator OF Stuart
Mills works into French. She speaks En-
glish with perfect fuency, and is much more
fond of English than of French novels.
George Eliot is her favorite, but Ouida and
Miss Braddon she also likes because of their
rapidity, which carries her swiftly along to
the denouement. She has no son, which is a
great grief to her, but for consolation has
four pretty clever little daughters, whom she
trains with great care. She is extremely
fond of American women, and since her ele-
vation 70 the Elysee has been careful 10 have
