THE IDEAL WOMAN.

She should lie womanly, Healthy In II cd,

We ought always clearly to bear II

mothers depends the future OF the race:
and that II either class must be sacrificed

sacrificed to the matrons who carry on
the life and qualities of tho species.
For this reason scheme OF female
education ought TO be mainly q scheme

And II women realized how noble and
important task IL IL that falls upon
mothers, they would ask no other. II
they realized how magnificent u nation

Exactly so; and therefore you sacrifice

THOMAS JEFFERSON,
4 Pen rioturs " ths Third President
tho rnited States,

| 4 Pen ricturs VI tbs Third President OF
tbs United States,
Jefferson was very tall, six feet two
and half inches in height, sandy-oom-
plexioned, shy in manner, seeming cold,
awkward in attitude, and with little in
his bearing that suggested command.
. One OF the greatest OF modern
writer's first made himself famou; by de-
claring that society was founded on
cloth; and Jefferson, at moments OF
some interest in his career as President,
seemed to regard his peculiar style of
dress as a matter OF political Importance,
while the Federalist newspapers never
ceased ridiculing the corduroy small
clothes, red plush waistcoat and sharp
toed boots with which he expressed his
contempt for fashion. For
eight years this tall, loosely-built, some
what stiff figure, in red waistcoat and
yarn stockings, slipping down at the
heel, and clothes that seemed too small
for him, may be imagined sitting on one
hip, with one shoulder high above the
other, talking almost without ceas-
ing to his visitors at the White
House. His skin was thin and delicate,
peeling from his face on exposure to
the sun, giving It a tettercd appearance.
This sandy face. with hazel eyes and
sunny aspect; this loose, Stacking per-
son; this rambling, brilliant oonversa-
ton, belonged to the controlling influ-
ences of American history, more neces-
sary to the story than three-fourths of
the official papers, which only hid the
truth. JefTersons personality during
these eight years appeared to be the
and impressed itself like
that OF Bonaparte, although by differ
ent process, on the mind OF the Nation.
In the village simplicity OF Washington
society he was more than king, for he
was alone in social as well as political
Except the British Lega-
ton, no house in Washington was open
to general society; the whole mass of
politicians, even the Federalists, were
dependent on Jefferson and ''the Pal |
ace" for amusement He |
showed his powers at their best in his
own house, where among friends as
yonial and cheerful as himself his ideas
could flow freely, and could be discussed
with sympathy. Such were tho men

the girls who do not laugh now and
