Washington correnpondence:
When Mrs. Taft, in her official role
«aa first lady of the land, surrounded
herself with a coterie of the cleverest
and brightest officers of the twin
branches of the service, everybody in
Washington society recognised that
the era of the army and navy eet had
arrived. In brave array the military
men form a moving background at
Mrs. Taft’s at homes, and in their im
maculate dress the officers of the land
and aqa forces are a splendid attribute

scarcely has the line of guests passed
until Mrs. Taft la surrounded by a
group of officers and their wives,
daughters and sweethearts, whose
persiflage and laughter Instantly die

or a "military" perfunctoriness.

Mrs. Edwards is a slender, delicate-
looking woman, whose eh lei beauty
lies In her sweetness of expression, her
well-bred air and her lovable manners
She looks at life through two jolly,
twinkling eyes and she has sympathy
with everybody and with everything
that lives, without regard to place or
position.. Her servants adore her and
pay her the sovereign compliment of
remaining in her service two decades
or more.

last to turn back. It persists when all
other forces have surrendered and
fled. It has won many a battle even
after hope has left the field.
Confederate commanders In the
Civil War said that the trouble with
General Grant was that “ he never
knew when he was beaten.” When
Grant’s generals thought that his
army, with only two transports, would
be trapped at Vicksburg, they asked
him how he expected to get his men
out, urging that in case of defeat he
could get only a small part of his
army upon two transports. He told
them that two would be plenty for
all the men that he would have left
when he surrendered.
It is the man in the business world
who will not surrender, who will not
take no for an answer, and who stands
his ground with such suavity of man

take offense, cannot turn him down,
that gets the order; that closes the
contract; that gets the subscription;
that gets the credit or the loan.
