PRESIDENTS WIFE
IS BUSY WOMAN
SHE is PASSIONATELY FOND OF
MUSIC, HAS CIVIC IMPROVE
MENT VIEWS AND is INTER-
ESTED IN PEOPLE.

Washington, May 10.-Mrs. Taft
likes to work and like her husband
she works when occasion demands it
and she enjoys having a good time
according to her way just as much
as anybody in the world.
Mrs Taft is passionately fond of
music, and her favorite diversions
since she became mistress of the
White House have been afternoon
one of the professional recitals of i'm
portance and has signified in the
most unmistakable manner that I'M
less official duties interfere she will
continue to patronize these affairs.
Being the wife of the chief official
in the land, therefore, has not in the
least upset the system by which Mrs.
Taft regulates her life. In the morn
ing she looks after her mail and
usually takes a motor ride. Some
times these rides result in shopping
tours, and again Mrs. Taft may be
met on the speedway, accompanied
by one or two of her friends. She
has made her friends understand
that she wishes to see them as of
bold, although she has not introduced
a custom of holding afternoon recep-
lions.
Has Civic Improvement Views.
Mrs. Taft has strong views on the
Improvement of civic and industrial
conditions ana has no hesitancy in
putting the stamp of her approval on
any movement which tends to that
end. Mrs. Taft has shown that she
proposes to take the same interest
in the things which interested her be-
fore she went TO live in the execu-
tive mansion as she has in other
years.
Whether her experiences in other
countries in noting the success Of
such things or whether from an in
nate desire to pull Washington out
of the social rut into which even its
best friends must acknowledge 1t has
fallen has not been made known, but
when it was announced that Mrs.
Taft had decided to inaugurate a
series of band concerts on the Speed
way around the upper point of the
Potomac river and make that part Of
the city a popular drive the an
nouncement was received with the

The Most Common Cause of Suffering

Rheumatism causes more pain and
suffering than any other disease, for
the reason that it is the most COM
mon of all ills, and it is certainly
gratifying to sufferers to know that
Chamberlain Liniment will AFFORD
relief, and make rest and sleep pos
sible. In many cases the relief from
pain, which is at first temporary, has
become permanent, while in old peo-
pie subject to chronic rheumatism,
often brought on by dampness or
changes in the weather, permanent
cure cannot be expected; the RELIEF
from pain which this liniment AFFORDS
is alone worth many times its cost.
Is and so cent sizes for sale by all
dealers.

Don't Think of Age.

The girl who sets out on her social
career to be a success does not ever
think of age, much less talk 1t. She
is herself, natural, interesting and in
terested, whether she is thrown with
90 or 10.
Not only is it conducive to popu-
larity not to think age, but it is a
long-headed habit as well. The girl
who does not confine herself to one
set rarely lacks invitations, and some
of her best times are due to the older
men and women from whom the de-
