THE most beautiful English woman
OF the decade is coming 10 Amer
= lea for a visit. This Is not any
professional beauty like Lily Lang
try who would never have been heard
OF out Of little set had 1t not been for
certain social notoriety which she
achieved. Neither Is It the good and
lovely Princess Of Wales, whose charms.
while notable, have prohted by her
nearness to a throne. Nor is 1t the
filrtatlous Princess OF Pless, whose
youthful vlvacity and the fact OF her
being the daughter Of a one time ia
nous beauty gave her a reputation.
Nor is the coming visitor Lady war
wick, whose claim TO beauty depends
rather on her wit than on her face and
figure, which are only fairly fine.
The visitor is none Of these, but Lady
Theresa susey Helen Stewart, mar
chioness Of Londonderry. She was
married "a years ago, and just the other
day her son, the Viscount Castlereagh,
welded the niece Of the Duke Of Suth-
erland. Her daughter, Lady Helen
Stewart, is a belle Of London society.
Yet, slough the marchioness is past her
youth, in her splendid prime none Of the
young beauties can compare with her.
She has a regal carriage, a perfect face
and figure that Is a model In contour.
The daughter Of a hundred earls, she Is
an Ideal Of the type which one would
expect in a Lady Clara We're de We're.
The Londonderrys belong TO an Irish
house, and Lady Londonderry's own
ancestors have been making history
since the time Of William the Norman.
The earls OF Shrewsbury, who were her
forbears, have been as famous for their
pride and talent az for their splendid
deeds. It Is one OF the boasts Of the
family that the men Of the house were
always brave and the women always
fair.
Lady Londonderry married when the
present marquis was still Yiscount Cas-
tlereagh, this title always being used
by the heir TO the marqulsate. In 1854
Lord Londonderry came into his title
Of marquis This brought 10 him a
handsome town house In Park lane, the
Fifth avenue of London, where the
family resides during the London sea-
son. He has also five handsome coun-
try seats, the favorite one Of which Is
Wynyard Park. Mount Stewart, Coun-

seat
wynyard Park is one OF the most
magnificent places In England. The es-
tate is famous for its fine horses and
cattle, some Of the stock OF the place be-
ing race winners. The stables and the
paddocks connected with them are
models OF luxury. On the stable boxes
are silver plates recording the achieve
ments Of the most famous horses that
have used them.
Salter House at Wynyard is the man.
or In which lives the hired expert who
cares for the home farm. one Of those
model agricultural experiments In
which the gentlemen Of England have
a mania for dabbling. The London
derry farm is picture. So well is II
kept that its cabbage fields are poems
and It's turnip patches dreams in as-
thetics. The Londonderrys very rarely
exhibit any OF their stock. II being their
taste TO live In proud, almost regal, ex-
clusiveness. for they feel that there Is,
after royalty. no better blood than
theirs In England.
In the stables where are kept Lady
Londonderry's two favorite hunters,
