Those pessimists who are continually

In person Miss Gladstone is tall and
rather upgraceful u defect which Is in
tensified by her carelessness i'll the mat
ter of dreSS-a very unimportAnt item In
ner busy life; but :one forgets her want
of grace in the charm of her
face, which,, without being real
ly handsome, fascinates by its
earnest expression. The spirit of her
fathers genius shines through her eyes
and causes one to forget that her features
are wanting in actual beauty. She wears
her hair brushed from her face in rather
severe style, and coiled in q knot at the
back of her head, Her forehead is low,
says the Omaha Wort a-Herdld, but well
shapeu; her mouth rather large, with full,
expressive lips. Miss Gladstone is of a
very retiring nature, having a great dis
like to publicity Of any sor,, and is by no
means the 'strong-mlnded" woman whom
one would expect to find at the head Of u
college. Although her views on most sub
jects are extremely strong, this fact only
serves to intensity her individuality, with
out detracting from her sw eet and woni-
auly nature. Many of the qualities which
have endeared the 'grand old man" to
those around nim. reproduce themselves
In his daughter, who resembles him
in character as she does II map
its stamp upon her; her Ia
ture bears the impression of his. No
wonder that her strong feelings are
usually in accordance with hose of her
father, and that in his political views his
daughter is one of his most ardent fol-
lowers. Another less important subject
on which her ideas coincide with those OF
Mr.. Gladstone IS a great belief in the
virtues of strong exercise, n though l
have never heard of her assisting In his
tree cutting operations, she is an indie
faJigabte walker and ehdeavors to make
her girls follow her example. Although
her nature is a reserved one, Hna she Is as
a rule rather silent, she is, when interest
ers OF conversation constitute one Of her
great charms. Even the most frivolous
dom would feel delighted at being re-
quested to take Miss Gladstone in to
dinner.
