Baroness Adolphe de Rothschild MAJ
fairly claim to be fin de steele agri-
culturist. She keeps a farm at Bou-
logne-sur-Seine, just outside the Bois
and here during the summer it is her
delight to initiate the weary votarie:
of fashion into the simple pleasures Of
rustic life. The guests are welcomed
into Louis XIV. drawing-room. where
the furniture is covered with satin bro
cade of the palest blush pink hue, and
all the knicknacks and ergravings are
suggestive Of the ancient regime. One
of the walls, however, consists of a
huge sheet of plate glass, giving views
into the cowshed, if so mean a word
is applied to the superb apartment
within which a double row of milky
mothers" browse peacefully at their
marble hangers.
A Breton herdsman and his wife in
natural costume tend the sleek cattle
and make the picture complete. When
aesthetic cravings have been sated by
this charming spectacle an adjourn
ment takes place to the dinner-room,
and dainty lunch is served amid q
bower of fragrant orchids. Then fol-
lows stroll through the gardens, laid
out in Louis ". style, with nymphl
and fauns of stone cleaning through
the foliage. and lastly there is a visit
to be paid to the dairies. By this time
1t has become cool enough to venture
on the homeward drive, and the car
riages are brought around, but each has
