devoted. He is in politics Republican, but
is equally esteemed by all parties.

Her frame is rather small, but perfect in Its
proportions and delight to the eye i'll its
curving outlines. 1t has no angles no super
hous flesh, no abrupt curves-it is all gently
flowing lines and graceful curves, that melt
into one another and leave upon ones mind
the impression Of harmony and grace. She
has three children-Cynthia, aged 6, and u
pair of twins, boys, two years younger.
Little Miss Cynthia mothers the two young
sters in most comical way, putting on to-
ward them natronly and protecting airs
which they already begin to resent. The ac-
pompanying picture scarcely docs Mrs. Burke
Roche justice, for it is regent one, and shows
the effects of her trouble in the unusual thin
ness, and in the rather drawn and sad express
sion.
Mrs. Cooper Hewitt is Mrs. Burke Roche's
sister and Is thought by many people to haSo
greater claims to beauty. She is larger, With
darker, brighter coloring, and m uch more
life and vivacity, She rides and fences and
plays tennis and indulges in all the other
fashionable athletic sports, and shows tip
result Of them all in her high vitality and
hearty enjoyment Of life They are the
daughters OF Frank Work, In whose stable,
fitted up as temporary theatre, Il little COM
pany Of young society, women played "Ca-
mile" a few years ago before very select
audience of ladies alone Mrs. Hewitt, who
was then Miss Work, played Armand with
such vigor as to bring down the house and
win the delighted admiration OF the entire
audience
The very sweetest face in all New York, as
every one who studies this picture will GER
tainly agree, is that OF Mrs. David Thomson,
born Miss Purdy. It has NIL the beauty of
refined, harmonious features and of a sweet
and gentle expression, but it lacks a littlc in
complexion and coloring, of all that very
beautiful face must hnve.

A Baroness E, the widow Of the last
Swedish governor of sweaborg, who surren-
dered the fortress to the Russian troops in
1909, was very beautiful in her younger days
When Alexander the First went to Helsing-
fors to open the Finland parliament, a ball
was given in his honor, and he led Off tho
dance with the generals wife Baroness
E-l, and with his usual gallantry kissed
her hand. The Indy decided to carry that
kiss with her to the grave, and from that
hour she never washed her right hand, but
always wore kid glove. In her old age this
peculiar habit proved, shall we say, some
what offensive, and she found it difficult to
induce people of her own rank and station to
join her at q game of whist. To crafty this,
her only passion, she offered free board,
lodgings and clothing to three poor students
at the university, whose only obligation was
to play whist with the old baroness for u
couple of hours every eyening.-San Fran

The builders tell n rather interesting story
of a Buffalo capitalist who was pretty sum-

up as the end of all things in whatever he
undertook. No mntter what was on foot, il

nobody else was allowed even a side remark
Not long ago he built tlne brick house. In

tects, and all without the slightest hesitation.
AT last they grew very tired of the browbeat-
Ing they had to stand and let him have his

house was finished and shortly nfterward the
owner set about building furnace fires to test

Physical Exercise.

Bodily Exercise" DR.. F. Lagrange says that
fencing, apparatus gymnastics and riding
school lessons may be safely prescribed for
the idle person ''whose brain langpishes for
want of work" But for "a child oyerworked
at school, for u person whose nerve centers
are congcstcd owing 10 persistent mental
effort i'll preparing for All examination, for
such NC mus prescribe long walks, tho easily
learned exercise of rowing, and, feeling bet

rather than difficult exercises and acrobatic
