Society in Washington, and for that matter all over the world is much more interested In the president's wife than it is in the president himself. Emer son .ay that life is only a little con versation, and I say that you can not have conversation without society, un less one has a constitution like Macau lay's and it is not reported that he talked to himself. His idea -of a pleas .a'nt party was where one voice" and that .on; Jils, talked all the time to many ears. From gay Dolly Madison tothe gra cious Mrs. Cleveland, the people .have intruded upon the privacy of the presi dent's family. The. people want to know how the president's wife looks, what she wears, how she brings up her children and -what they say and do. By unremitting effort President and Mrs. Cleveland have kept their chil dren In complete seclusion so far as the newspapers are concerned. In consequence, gossip, unable to under stand such conduct, says that the children must be witless. In point of fact they are bright and pretty, and Mrs. Cleveland believes that the Idle tales about the children will not hurt them as much as publicity would. The president Is not a sovereign, but hU wife occupies the only throne in America. Mr. Cleveland's three hun dred pounds of resentment at the American people for taking so much Interest in his wife Js so much waste choler. Mrs. Cleveland has a gracious, womanly manner, a trick of remem bering people and of listening to any one who is talking to her with perfect attention and the manner of being es pecially delighted with him, that sug gests the stones told of Recamler's tasclnatlon. It Is thoughtfulness for others that has made Mrs. Cleveland's administration so successful. She ap plies the golden rule in society and in forgetting herself she will be remem bered longer than any one of her pre decessors. If the Chicago convention had been allowed to Indorse Mrs. Cleve land it would have done It by acclama tion. Simplicity and entire self-forgetful-ness characterize Mrs. Bryan. Her un worldly absorption in books and babies and her husband Is shown by her clear, direct, uncalculating glance. Her life has been one of study. She is an only child and her mother was almost a life long invalid. "She was such a thin little girl," her father said, "I hated to punish her when I thought I ought to." The doctor said she must be kept out of doors. Luckily she did not like ln ;door life and all day long she tagged her father, and her little dog Frisk tagged her. They dug in the garden and 'her father made funny rhymes that she whispered herself to sleep on at night. Long before she could read sheTcnew the names of the bugs and 'worms that her little hoe and his big one turned up fn the garden. The man 'showed the little girl with what exact perfection all the insects were made, and how they clung to the earth. By the time she was ready for books she "wis Xin to everything they told about. She idealized the earth and Its gener ating and regenerating character. .From a puny child sje has grown to 'be a strong woman with a rare power of endurance and concentration. She and her father sat on the porch at '.night and he told Greek and Norse "stories of the stars. He told her how far away they were from them and from each other though they looked so neighborly. He told her what a speck the world would look If they could look at It from Venus. Then he took 'her In his arms and crooned his" own funny nan's mother goose.

Over there behind the goose-berry Daily and Sunday, by mail bush is a wild spot, and the orchard beyond it is undiscovered still. The sense of proportion and perspective that Mary Baird acquired from her father, has had a great influence upon her. Her father says she never told him a He. I don't believe she ever told anyone a He. Her words have the Quaker llteralness and simplicity of long habit. If she should be the first lady of the land she will be a sweet ex ample of 'womanliness. Early star gazing or her father's influence trained her to think of things abstractly, na kedly, without the Impediments of custom and fashion. She was born in Perry, Illinois. When she first went to school she did not like it. The books and the confine ment were unaccustomed and as hate ful as new. She was naturally lazy and she did not want her intimacy with the beetles and birds interrupted. Her father told her if she did not go to school she would be an Ignoramous and all the other children would get ahead of her. So she consented to acquire an education because she did not want other children to get ahead of her. It was her good fortune when she was in the high school of Dixon to be taught by a man who was passionately fond of mathematics. He was a good teach er and inspired Mary Baird with a sense of thrir beauty and use. When the time came that she must go away to school she and her father travelled over most of th middle west to find the best one. They inspected many and finally decided upon Monti cello. Her first winter at this school was interrupted by repeated illnesses of her mother. The next winter, though she hated to leave this excel lent school, she wanted to b nearer her mother, so she went to a girls' school in Jacksonville, 111. It was In this town that a young man by the name of William Jennings Bry an was attending college. At the ba ginning of the school year the teachers and pupils of the Fern. Sem. held a reception In the, parlors of the school. On this occasion Mary Baird was standing In one of two large rooms when a group of young men entered the other one. She looked up and no ticed on of them In particular and FIRST PUBLICATION JULY 11. To Frank W. Little. Mary T. Little, The New York Security & Trust Company, a corporation.
