all said TO be skilled I'm the art Of land
scape gardeury, and by Miss Goulds d.
reetion they devote large portion or
their time to the general Identification

Despite her gentleness and many wo-
manly qualities. Helen Gould is an ar
dent advocate Of woman's suffrage. So
true is this that while she hesitates 10
talk for publication on most topics, she
has more than once spoken freely on
this one; and. when you come TO think
about, it. there is nothing surprising mat
the present order OF things, under whsh
one OF her stabiemen can have a voice
i'm the government while she cannot,
should seem incongruous TO her.
Miss Gould is as much In favor or mus
cular femininity as she Is OF equal SUE

physical exercise Is rolling ten pins. The
bowling alley at Lyndhurst IS descriped
as a model structure OF It's kind ana MISS
Gould as an expert bowler she likes
horseback riding as well as bowling ana
moreover, she likes horses too, though
she does not take an interest IN the race
