Mrs. Geo. j. Gould, who before
her marriage was the beautiful ac-
tress, Edith Kingdom. is one OF
those remarkably rare New York
society women who combine charm
ing social graces with the most de-
voted domesticity. In many ways
she is a marvel to her friends. The
mother of seven children, her
beauty and grace of figure are the
envy of women whose years are far
fewer than her own. jJ1 j
While giving much of her time to
her social duties, she has made her
children the objects of a devoted
personal care, and they themselves
with their achievements and
healthy beauty are the best proof
of her success as a mother.
my acquaintances have some
times pitied me-" said Mrs. Gould,
because / have had so many
babies, but l have not one child
too many. have never had child
that / did not want. nor that has
not found a warm welcome waiting

why my children have all been so
strong and have had such serene
dispositions.

ASK THAT MUD
Be REMOVED

When a force of men from the
street department began cleaning
the cross walks on North Division
this week there was rejoicing, for
the business men then concluded
that the mud was likewise to be
removed from the street. But the
good work stopped with the cross
walks.
Division street people think that
their new pavement should be
cleaned the same as other paved
streets of the city, as they pay their
taxes the same as the others.
Inquiry today at the office of the
city engineer elicits the information
that mud will be cleaned off the
Division street paving before it is
finally accepted, and that it will
not only be cleaned but washed. in
order to detect any broken blocks
or defective work that might have
developed.
