is particularly fortunate in having for its
leaders those women of culture and gra-
ciousness of manner who embody the pres
ent Cabinet circle and who are led by Mrs.
Mckinley, the first lady of the land.
MRS. MCKINLEY.
The recent severe illness of Mrs. McKin-
ley in California has brought out a number
of expressions of endearment from her
friends in Washington who have known her
intimately. These words have placed her
in the most enviable light as a wife and an
intimate friend. Mrs. Grant. one of her
great friends and judge Of human nature.
says: Mrs. Mckinley is a pretty little
woman and a loving wife,
Mrs. Mckinley is not only pretty. but has
a particularly intelligent expression; and
those who have been thrown much into
her society say that she is very witty and
bright in conversation. She Is very gracious
and easily approached. and her sweet pa
tent face is an index to her true charac-
ter. She never complains.
