The song writer was deeply affected by
the pathos and sweetness Of the air
and before the train arrived had
thought out the lines which have since
been sung by millions of people and
have drawn tears from thousands of
eyes.

She relates that once while pupil at
the Institution For the Blind she was
required to produce some lines Of blank
verse and had put it off out Of sheer
laziness. Finally her teacher said to
her: ''Now. Fanny, it is time for bust
ness. No blank verse, no dinner She
had the poem ready before the dinner
bell rang. That sort of practice en-
abled her to concentrate her mind on
a theme and partly accounts for the
sWiftness Of her thought when she
composed the immortal lines for Mr..
Doane
The blind poet has a strong feeling
for rhythm and a keen enjoyment Of
music and in her time has been herself
skilled performer On the guitar and
piano. In the case, of some of her
songs and hymns she composed both
words and music. She used to have
sweet soprano voice, and her sense of
harmony was so strong that anything
like a discord Jared on her ear and
would even awaken her from sleep. A
gentleman who knew this once used it
to his advantage. On calling at the
hotel where She was staying he was
told by attendants that she was Sleep
ing. They were reluctant to disturb
her, whereupon the caller, whose bust
ness was pressing, strolled down the
corridor where her room was located
and began singing hymn out Of tune.
The first false note awakened her.
Fanny Crosby's judgments of those
about her are accurate. She comes to
her conclusions through the sound of
the voice. THAT Is kind man; like
his voice" or Il don't want to know
that person." she will say. She was
seated next to stranger in hotel at
dinner. Afterward friend who knew
his character asked her what sue
thought Of him. ''He Is a deep, vile.
bad man." she quickly replied. 1t was
true. Conversing with a man who had
spoken scornfully of good impulse, she
exclaimed, Get me hammer and let
me raise bump Of reverence on this
mans head!y r."
In some Of the churches the hymns
which she wrote will be sung on Gan

make her the recipient Of GIFT, thus
honoring the poet while she II alive IN

The trimming most often seen where

Among the handsome outdoor cos

are also made in colored silk. Some
very neat and fetching suits OH this

Mrs. Charles Warren Fairbanks.

A more important parsonage than
ever in Washington society is Mrs.
Fairbanks, wife Of the vice president.
She is more highly and solidly edC-
Gated than almost any other woman in
the capitals social circle. She is a
college graduate and also studied law
with her husband, in due time receiv-
ing a diploma as bachelor of laws. She
has had a course in International and
parliamentary law, the latter fitting
her especially to fill the post of presi-
dent general of the Daughters Of the
American Revolution, to which she
was elected. When her children, four
sons and a daughter. were little, she
studied medicine that she might know
better how to take care Of them.
Vice President and Mrs. Fairbanks
will continue to live in the house they
occupied when Mr.. Fairbanks was sen
ator from Indiana. 1t is adapted to
large entertainments, and that COM
mends it to Mrs. Fairbanks, one Of the
most hospitable hostesses Of Washing
ton. In the selection of her guests she
is entirely independent, governed by
no official precedent.

we will say few words about it, In
the first place, it is shown in every pos
sible kind of material and form. Just
now the silks and velutinas have it,
but there are enough washable ones

is the plain one with plaits made large

taste may dictate. The inch wide
plat extending from shoulder to waist
is the neatest and is the easiest to'iron
and for that reason the waist made in
this way gives the best satisfaction in
the long run. Dotted swiss is very

Mrs. Roosevelt and her aids as we'll
