and the Injuries OF wealth, and had all
the educational and social advantages
that money could supply, Mrs. Coolidge
has fallen into many OF the customs and
become addicted to many of the habits
of the red people among whom she has
lived for the last six years. She dresses
more after the fashion OF a sQuaw than
a woman OF her own race, she Is careless
of her personal appearance, undignifed
in her bearing, and destitute OF those
social graces that constitute the chief
charm Of the city-bred young woman OF
the class to which she once belonged.
Her choice OF a husband and Of life
has involsed the sacrifice Of all those
things that the average daughter OF
wealthy, well-bred parents value most
highly, but this sacrifice seems not TO
have made her in anywise unhappy or
Disconnected. To all appearances she is
devoted to and happy in the love OF her
red-skinned husband and her half breed
child and in the devotion Of her hus-
bands people, among whom she has
come to be regarded as a sort OF saint
She has faithfully and zealously assist
ed her husband TO uplift his people NOR
ally and 10 enlighten them spiritually,
land her labors have not been fruitless.
The life OF Sherman Coolidge has been
isingularly rich in incident and measur-
ably rich in achievement. Out here In

WAS attacked and destroyed by band
iof hostile Sioux, and a brother and ais
