Baroness eurdett.coutts 10 SO.

few days ago Baroness Burdett.
Coutts celebrated her eighty-ninth
birthday. Lady Burdett-Coutts is
one OF the most interesting figures
of modern times. Her schemes Of
philanthropy, in which she has been
ably seconded by her American-born
husband. have been many and vari-
GUS and she has given immense sums
to charity. In many respects Lady
Burdett-Coutts is extraordinarily con-
servative and 1t is said to be owing to
her wish that the partners and en-
ployes at Coutts are all clean shaven.
