i To turn to the purely domestic side
she is an excellent housekeeper, and
she has reputation for retaining not
only the good will but the cooperation
of her domestics. She herself can
work out a menu admirably, and If
the necessity arose she could person
ally "get up" palatable dinner. She
is clever at the Sunday evening sup
per table Ga distinctive feature of
Southern households), and her hand
| ling of the chatting dish on these oc-
casions conduces to the good diges-
ton which waits on appetite.
She is a familiar figure in the
Washington markets, her smart little
runabout many times being filled with
the more perishable fruits of her
domestic shopping.
Altogether she would make "fne
wife for poor man."
She is open handed and generous, a
devoted church woman and until
quite recently a member of st.
Thomas Episcopal church. She now
attends st. Margaret's, where her
brother, Richard Wilmer Boiling, is

John Randolph Boiling, and her Sis
ter. Miss Bertha Boiling, also attend.

up the invalid and elderly and taking
them for drives about the parks are

Southern woman employed in one OF
the government departments came to
visit her daughter, whom the presi-
dents bride had frequently met. Al
