has been enormously described as being
blonde, whereas it is in reality dark,
growing on her low white forehead in
little love points and massed at the back
in a lustrous coil At the Charity ball

pearing with a wreath of shining green
ivy leaves on her hair, matching the ivy
festoons in her pink gown, giving the
appearance OF some blue eyed, dark
haired nymph or dryad. Equally CLASH

manner in which Spanish looking Miss

indubitable belleship, daringly arranges

when Mrs. George Gould Was Young.
Mrs. George Gould is a young lady
whose girlhood did not give much fore
cast of the position which she fills today.
Mrs. Gould was Miss Edith Kingdom,
and she early evinced a talent for the
stage. When she was still a child she
thought and dreamed of the great things
she was going to do and the triumphs
she was to achieve. Her parents object
ed to her desire and discouraged her in
every possible way, but fate interposed,
and through death and the necessity for
making money she accepted her first
position in a very subordinate capacity.
She worked very hard and conscien-
tiously, and as she was intelligent and
painstaking as well as very pretty, with
large appealing eyes and a sweet, sensi-
tive face, and had undeniable ability,
she rapidly rose in the profession, and
though she did not reach to any very
exalted position there was every reason
to suppose she would in a few years.
She vas very young, not over is, when
Mr.. George Gould first saw her, and he
fell in love with her, and with the quiet
persistency of his nature set about win
ming her love in return. The young girl
was modest and doubtful of her own at
fractions, and for a long time Mr.. Gould
feared that money could not buy every
thing, but at last she consented and they
were quietly married, and her prosperity
is as great as her merit.
She now has a home next door to that
of her father-in-law, who is very fond of
her and her two splendid little boys. /

thinks of the struggle for life made by
