MRS. GROVER CLEVELAND.
Wife of Ex-President Will Spend
Winter in New York Where She
Is Very Popular.

The announcement is made that
Mrs. Grover Cleveland, having seen
her four babies out of the nursery,
will spend a greater part of the win
ter in New York, mingling in it's
life of gayety.
That Mrs. Cleveland will be more
than cordially received is a fact that
goes without emphasis, says the Chi
cago Chronicle.
No woman is surrounded in the
public mind with a greater degree of
interest and romance than Mrs.
Cleveland.
At the age of 81 she married the
chief executive of the United States.
During the decade that followed
little folks, making the historic walls
ring with their laughter for the very
first time in their history.
Other presidents had children that
were related to them distantly, or
were borrowed children. But in this
case the baby carriages were for tho
use of the babies of the president
and his wife and the rattles, the go
carts, the baby jumpers and the small
pets were intended for Baby Ruth,
Baby Marian, Baby Esther and their
small friends.
Mrs. Cleveland during this time
distinguished herself by her hospital
ity and by the elegance of her
gowns. No woman since Queen Eliza
beth dressed with such superb taste.
Her embroideries, her trains, her jew
els and her color schemes were the
work of the best modistes on both
sides of the water.
It is probable that she did not dress
extensively, but she was a college
girl, and college education certain
ly does tell. No Smith woman, de-
voted to art, ever achieved greater
triumphs than were those that fell
at the feet of Mrs. Cleveland the
while she was queening it in the
white house. She was the first lady
of the land, and no less in matters
of dress than in other things.
Aside from her personal taste and
individual elegance. Mrs. Cleveland
had beauty; she was really pretty,
and this helped out the whole.
But at no time in her career could
Mrs. Cleveland, then or now, be said
to be popular. She has a great dis
taste for notoriety, and has never

An original idea, in field which has

Great success by the little. woman
Who thought of it. She is now making

child. BY far the majority OF women

clothes. and it was in helping out or

natterns earned their popularity.

Cor infants and young children. The
correspondence of the firm has been
very interesting feature of the I'M

have a decided personal flavor, as the

HONEY IS WHOLESOME.
Curnt.hes Some Elements of Nh.
triton as Starch and Sugar and
Imparts Energy.

It is fact generally known that
starch and sugar must undergo di-
gestive change before they are assim-
Hated. But it is not SO generally
known that in honey this change has
been made to considerable extent by
the bees. A writer in Health explains
that honey is easy to assimilate, is con-
centrated, and furnishes the same ele-
ments of nutrition as starch and SUI
gar, imparting warmth and energy.
AS medicine, honey has great
value and many uses. 1t is excellent
in most lung and throat affections, and
is often used with great benefit in
place of cod-liver oil. Occasionally
there is a person with whom it does
not agree, but most people can learn
to use it with beneficial results. Chill
dren who have natural appetites gen
orally prefer it to butter. Honey is a
laxative and sedative, and in diseases
of the bladder and kidneys is an ex-
cellent remedy.
1t has much the same effect as wine
or stimulants, without their injurious
effects, and is unequaled in mead and
harvest drinks. AS an external apI1i-
cation it is irritating when clear, but
soothing when diluted. In many places
it is much appreciated as remedy for
Group and colds. In preserving fruit,
the formic acid it contains makes a
better preservative than sugar strip,
and it is also used in cooking and con-
fectfons. Honey does not injure the
teeth as candies do.
In early times, it is said, Palestine
aowed with milk and honey, but we
have far more to-day than the people
of any previous age ever had.

given to the public her opinions upon
this or that. She refused certain IA
vors to the woman's suffragists; she
would not become a white ribbon
woman; she declined to identify her.
self with any form of woman's work,
and so she made many enemies.
To-day Mrs. Cleveland is living
very elegant life in the beautiful old
town of Princeton, not far from the
college. Here her husband enjoys the
rural pastimes for which he will be
famous in history, and here Mrs.
Cleveland presides over menage
which is distinguished for its quiet
and unobtrusive elegance. A large
house, finely situated in the heart
of Princeton, affords the setting for
display of hospitality which is taxed
to its utmost all the year round.
Mrs. Cleveland has fine turnout,
and in this she takes her family to
drive with the boy Richard now add
ed to the little group. After lunch
con, at which there are always we'll
known guests, Mrs. Cleveland has her
afternoon at home or goes calling,
and later the dinner is served,
function which in the Cleveland fam
lily is marked with a dignity that
amounts almost to splendor.
Mrs. Cleveland preserves her ira
ditions in the matter of dress, and
while she assumes Dutch simplicity
in attending to the affairs of her
own household, she gowns herself
with fine taste, which is the admira-
ton of all who visit the Cleveland
home.
Mrs. Cleveland is prominent in sew
eral New York charities, her favorite
being kindergarten work on the
East side. While not a slum worker
by any means, she takes womanly
interest in matters that pertain to
the education of children and the
placing of education in the reach Of
the very poor.
Mrs. Cleveland is now about 3S years
old. She has gained in weight, and in
stead of being the spindling girl she
was when she went to the white
house, she is a woman of fine figure
and broad bearing.
If Mrs. Cleveland carries out her
intention of mingling in the society
life of New York she will leave behind
her at home her husband, for Mr..
Cleveland is not society man, and
a dancing function bores him, while
the formal reception is to him .

LARNED AND DOHERTY
REACH SEMI FINALS
American and Ensishmen VIII Probably
Be Left to Fight 1t Out

SOUTHAMPTON, L. l., Aug. 12.-The
singles of the tennis tournament on the
courts of the Meadow club were brought
up to the semi-final round today when
play was discontinued for the day. Will
liam A. Larned, the American champion,
William j. Clothier, of Philadelphia, and
the English champion, H. L. Doherty. won
their places in this round and 1t is eX-
pected that as the matter now stands
Larned and Doherty will meet in the
finals
In gaining his place in the semi finals
Clothier played a hard three-set match
with Mahony Of the English international
team. He was too strongly aggressive
at the net for the veteran EngliShman
and the latter was cleanly outplayed in
the second and third sets, after winning
the first when the games had gone to
deuce. That the ranking American player,
William A. Larned, is in the fine form was
made evident by his work against Harry
T. Allen the Philadelphian. Allen was
very accurate in his drives and his at
tempts to pass, but Larned overcame this
by the most dashing sort of work, and by
sprinting to the net he gained the posi-
ton from which it was possible for him
to cross-court the ball and pass Allen
almost at will. Allen only took three
games in the two sets of the match
H. L. Doherty found it easy to over
come the Yale player, A. W. Post. and
take his place in the Semi-final round.
Only one competition in the doubles was
decided and this resulted in a hollow vic
tory for the Doherty brothers. Summary

Of the train in ST. Paul yesterday
morning. When discovered the man
was in a terrible condition. He was
carried to shady spot and his body
was rubbed with axle grease.
After while WEIGH awoke, too
weak to resist the deluge of water
that was poured over him. He was
sore from the soles Of his feet to the
top of his head. The lime had taken
most of his hair from his head and his
skin was as smooth as childs. His
old skin had been almost entirely boil

WEIGH finally recovered sufficiently

aid. The mans eyes are still in a

Starving the patient who has sick
stomach. is an out-of-date treatment
and no longer necessary with the pre-
digested and nourishing food Grape
Nuts that the weakest stomach can
handle and grow strong upon.
There is plenty of proof of this: Il
had suffered from stomat trouble for
six years and for most Of the last two
years had been confined to my bed the
trouble having become chronic in spite
of the very best medical attention.
had always been a coffee drinker but
for the past year I could not drink it at
all because it made me so nervous
could not sleep, and my appetite was
almost entirely gone. Z
Then some friend advised me to try
the predigested food Grape-Nuts, and
about three months ago l did so and
since that time my improvement has
been so rapid that my customers and
friends are astonished, and every day
some one remarks upon my changed
condition have gained fifteen pounds
sleep well, my appetite is good and
my digestion is perfect. Where I have
lived on milk and light diet for years I
now eat most anything / want and
don't suffer any inconvenience, either.
The way Grape-Nuts food has built up
my stomach and strengthened my
nervous system is particularly wonder
full.
"I drink your food drink, Postum,
too, and no longer feel the want of
coffee. There is absolutely no doubt
that leaving Off coffee and using Grape
Nuts and Postum has brought me out
