individual. When her father was living
Miss Garrett was his private secretary,
his best adviser and his most trusted
friend, even above any of the old gen.
tleman's sons. ItwaS in this capacity
that she obtained her knowledge of the
road and her insight into its financial
affairs. After the death of her father
Miss CARROTS influence over her broth
er, Robert Garrett, was so marked that
it became matter of current talk
insBaltimOre. But there were certain
theories held by her brother which
even the. influence which she held
over him could not success
fully combat. When the schemes
which led to the invocation of the aid of
the DreXel syndicate eliminated,
sisters counsels, which he had failed to
follow, and practically surrendered to
her the management of his interest in
the road. When he started on his tour
around the world his sister followed and
overlook him at San Francisco, where
he was induced to give to her the con-
troll of all of his interests in the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad company.
Recently, when the syndicate which
had helped the Baltimore q Ohio out of
the difficulties in which it had unwit-
tlngly been plunged, began TO maggie
about the commissions and threatened
to place the road in an embarrassing
position, Miss Garrett quietly brushed
them all aside, put up the needed cash,
! and saved the credit of the company.
Since the recent death of her brother, T..
Harrison Garrett, Miss Mary CARROTS
control of the Garrett estate has be-
come practically unlimited during
Robert Garrett'S absence
Miss Garrett is a most unaSsuming
lady, and would never be taken for a
great financier, as she is. at first sight.
She is not fond of notoriety, and in
manners and habits is most domestic
and hOmelOving woman. She wor-
SHIPPED her father. and her most ardent
hope is to see the great road which he
built and brought to such great i'm
portance kept up to the position where
he left it, and perpetuated as one of the
great institutions of the country.

ruded her individuality in the mana ge-
ment OF the great property which her
father left at his death. but her influ-
ence and capacity have nevertheless
been felt and recognized by every one
who has come i'll contact with the finan-
clal management of the Baltimore and
ONO hallway company. Fol- many
years before her fathers deaths she was
his chief assistant. Her love for her
father was the ruling passion of her
life. and her devotion to him was the
admiration OF her friends and the des-
par OF those who sought to win her
hand in marriage.
Miss Garrett to-day, although few
persons know it, controls and manages
the Garrett interest in the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad, and has for some time
been the most potential factor in the
manipulation of the interests of that
great corporations She is thoroughly
acquainted with all the details of the
business of the road and its financial
status. and has always been looked
upon as one of its most SagaciOuS adj
YiSerS.
Although personally directing the
management OF property worth not
less than S20.000,000, Miss Garrett is al
most unknown to business men, because
her fine sense of modesty and true
Womanly reserve will not permit her to
assume an individual and personal con-
troll which both her capacity for finan-
cial affairs and her direct control of
millions OF money would enable her
to do.
There is no woman in the United
States who can command more ready
cash than Miss Garrett. Her knowledge
of the road and its management gives
her position i'll the councils of that
corporation not possessed by any other

scented flowers are also being used for
the floral boas, which continue popular.
and are one of the prettiest fashions in
troduced for some time.
The greater number of summer hats
are broad-brimmed in front, thus shad-
ing the face, while at the sides and rear
the brim is either narrow or turned up,
so that the hair is not obscured. These
hats are suitable to all women and are
SO showily handsome as to sometimes
turn positively ugly wearers into slightly
objects. Flowers appear on nearly all
of them. 1t will be seen that in two of
the samples here given, looped ribbons
form part of the trimming, but the flow
ers are there also. and in the other two
models flowers alone are the embellish-
ments. If Solomon in all his glory paled
before the lilies of the field, what
wouldn't have happened if brought into
contrast with such a floral hat as the
milliner of the present day turns out.
The imitation of natural flowers has
-heen carried to perfection. 1t seems al
most impossible, indeed, within the
range of the admissible to use
them too lavlshly. The tall rib

A tumble-down wheel, tattered ball

Bells that clash in a gau y chime,
Swords that clatter in onsets tall,
The words that ring and the flames that
climb
Youth is the sign of them, one and all,
Hymnals old in a dusty STALL
A bald, blind bird in crazy cage,
The scene of faded festival
These are type of the world of Age,
Hours that strut as the heirs of time,
Deeds whose rGmor's clarion call,
Songs where the singers their souls sublime
Youth is the sign of them. one and all.
A staff that rests in a nook of wall
A reeling battle, a rusted gage,
The chant of a nearing funeral
These are type of the world of Age.
