Of the Gallo nation with the fluency
Of a Partisan. 1t would be impossible

enjoys the satisfaction of being prominent
socially because Of her wealth, but she
should hold unique position won entirely
by her own intrinsic merits. 1t would be
out of the question TO attempt to catalogue
MRS. Baird'S deeds Of kindness, some of
them having been performed at no small
cDst of sacrih e to herself, involving not
merely the outlay Of her money, but
calling upon her for personal Su pervision
OF the exercise OF her charitable intentions.
and making great drain upon her nervous
system, Tor Mrs. Baird is a highly nervous,
delicately organized little woman, and any
sight of suffering or tale of distress so
works upon her that she is completely eX-
hausted by the violence OF her own emo
tions.
Mrs Baird has been a great traveller, hav-
ing been some time in Europe and in the
Eastern States as well. 1t is understood
that she is very likely to take her newly
graduated daughter 10 Europe and perhaps
spend a winter in Paris before long.
One OF the lady's special delights is in her
pair OF thoroughbred housekeeping horses,
behind which she loves to ride either on
our principal streets or out at tile park.
In appearance Mrs. Baird is a trim little
inquire, very like that OF a slender girl Of Is.
Her hair is somewhat auburn in hue and
her features are those Of bright, iEtelli-
gent woman. Her voice is rich and full when
she speaks, and there is something which
pTOvOkeS to mirth in the very way in which
she tells a funny story. 1t is simply ire

bright remarks feel that she is talking for
Rlm or her alone, and with such success
does she converse that she is able to draw
out the moat bashful wight that ever sat on
the end Of chair, and wished that il was
time to go home. No one can feel awkward
or constrained in her presence, she is so
bright and lively. Then, for those who pre-

discuss the weghtier questions of the day.
She has been student of occultism, and Is
