HOW MRS WOODROW WILSON LOOKS AND DRESSES

sY lDAH MeoLoWE GIBSON.

I
AS | climbed into the surrey at
Princeton, N. j.. and told the drives
wanted to see Mrs. Wilson, he volun-
teered this information: She's a
mighty fine woman and none Of the
family puts on any Tugs. Ne and my
eight brothers are going TO vote for

Cheering information TO impart TO
the governors wife," / thought as
alighted at the door OF the home or
the Democratic candidate for presi-
dent.
Mrs Wilson will see you imme-
diately." and hardly had the maid fin
ished speaking when a woman at the
zenith OF her matronly beauty entered
the room and graciously greeted me-
Her brown eyes had golden glints Ia
them. Her hair. bronze brown, was
rolled back from her face and confin-
ed In becoming Juliette cap made OF
bronze braid and tiny pearl beads
Her complexion had lost some OF the
freshness OF youth. but still retained
its color In cheeks and lips Her
gown was OF lavender charmeuse
made somewhat fuller than Is the
fashion OF today. Bits OF lace were
placed upon the gown as gsrniture
and softly fell away from the slightly
low neck and elbow sleeves,

she cares little for fashion, except
where she considers II artistic and
suitable for herself. and | gathered.
IS much from her manner and dress
as from her conversation, that she
cares little for the society which u
only bent upon amusing Itself.
The thought Of living in the con-
strained social conventions that must
surround the white house II rather
appalling" she said when / asked her
II she liked the idea of being the wife
of a president. II care very little for
the formal society function. In fact,
have never learned TO play bridge,
because / realized II | did not know
how to play It would not be invited
TO those afternoon affairs which only
bore me.
II am never bored with real things,
and / never get tired Of talking with
any man or woman upon any real
work which is being done In the
world, even II II and its methods are
of the simplest description. The
everyday people and the common
duties OF everyday Life hold my In
terest always"
While Mrs. Wilson u not at all
conventional In her ideas OF social
life, she shows q conservatism, per-
haps inherited from three generations
OF Presbyterian ministers. In being q
little reluctant to take on all the
ideas OF the new woman" asked
her II she believed in votes for wo-

said: MY daughter. who is interest

Podgoritza, which means Foot or

battle of the Balkan war was fought.
The Montenegrins rushed the Turk

victory.
King Nicholas dashes about In a
motor car and sleeps upon the tented

The splendid fighting spirit OF the
Montenegrins as nation in arms
commands admiration, but the trag-
edy of their inadequate equipment for
war is appalling.

Mrs. Wilson Is very fond Of her

She speaks with pride and little awe

However, 1t seems to me that altogether too
much prominence has been given this uues-
ton OF Wool Tariff, when we consider that Il
is one Of the smallest industries of the farm,
and Notwithstanding the fact that II has been
given artificial support and an attempt made
to sustain sheep husbandry by the use OF all
kinds Of stimulants. gradually, but surely, nat
ural conditions must prevail. And as the
country has become cleared up and more set
tied and the land becomes more valuable
for other purposes. sheep have become fewer
and fewer. which is demonstrated by the fol-
lowing Government figures. The states east
OF the Mississippi river in 1893 had Is. s32 900
sheep Seventeen years later. in 1910, these
same states had 11,S44,000 sheep, a loss OF
over SO per cent. In our state we had
2,5lsOoo sheep in 1893, and in 1910 we had
100000; loss Of just 40 per cent Mind
YOU this covers period OF the highest pro-
tective tarlff this country has ever had I have
