MRS. WOODROW NILSSON.

THERE is not an American home that is saddened
by the thought that Mrs. Woodrow Wilson wife OF
the President and the First Lady of Our Land is lying
at deaths door in the White House Her death is ex-
pected at any moment and may before words
here written reach the reading public
Mrs. Wilson is Of Americas ioveliest and most
popular and purposeful women. AS wife. mother
friend, neghbor and sympathizer with those who are
unfortunate she has distinguished herself for years by
the devotion she has displayed In fact it is asserted
that the strain Of that selfsacrhcing devotion those
whom she loved and TO those in whose future she had
a friendly interest had much to do with the physical
collapse which now threatens her life
IL did not require the election Of her distinguished
husband to the Presidency to the American pub
lie to appreciate the worth of Mrs Wilson Long be-
fore that she had recognition as a woman who had
worthily the crown of American womanhood Wife
hood and motherhood and who believed firmly in the
brotherhood of and the sisterhood OF woman
The heartfelt sympathy of the civilized world goes out
10 the entire Wilson family in this hour of anxiety and
grief and the hope is universal that something may
intervene the great calamity that now threatens
its happiness.
