With a ceremony so simple and with j

lleve that the wedding means n new j
life for the president und a new "first j
tady of the land." I
Mrs. Gait, one of the most beautiful I
women In Washington of the old Vir
ginia stock, never looked more lovely
than she did as the date for the wed
ding approached. And even the most
cynical recognizes the genuineness of
the elation and buoyancy of the presi
dent, wlia under the spell of his bride
baa been literally "made over."
On Dec 28 the president will be fifty

In arranging the diplomatic dinners be
cause of the European war, but the
president's bride Is somewhat of a dip
lomat herself und will find a way out.
Jinny receptions have been planned,
and Washington society Is rejoicing.
Washington has often noted with
complimentary phrases the brlde'a
taste In dress. Her friends have al
ways remarked Iter ability to dress
distinctively and becomingly. Back of
this ability lies a talent cultivated In
the girlhood days. Money was not
overabundant lit the Boiling family.
There was enough to give everybody
the education duo the standing of an
old and Influential Virginia family, but
ber judgment In a matter so Intimate
and vital," was one comment
This aide light is further emphasized
In her manDer of traveling. Bhe selects
her route and her companion, makes
her arrangements and sets out sanely.
According to another of her friends.
she Is one "of the most alive and vivid
women" Imaginable.
An alive and vivid woman she ap
pears In ber travels. Two yeara ago,
with Miss Alice Gertrude Gordon, she
made a tour of Spain not the Spain
of the cities, but the bypaths of the
unfrequented Spain.
Between Miss Gordon and the bride
the warmest friendship exists. Called
to General Gordon's deathbed, her
promise to "look after Gertrude" has
resulted lu a devoted friendship ce
mented by long-periods of travel In far
off lands. Sentimental only Is thc tie
of "guardianship" which many ' In
Washington, even the closest of friends,
consider exists between Miss Gordon
and the president's helpmate. How
ever, so devoted Is she to her young
compnnion "Allrudu" la play on the
given numcs of Alice Gertrude) that
even her business affairs have many
times received the steadying Influence
of her oversight.
Fine "Poor Man's Wife."
To turn to the purely domestic side,
she Is an excellent housekeeper, and
she has n reputation for retaining not
onlv the good will but tho co-operntlon
of her domestics. She herself can work
out a menu admirably, and If the ne
cessity arose sha could personally "get
tin" it palatable dinner. She is clever
at tho Sunday evening supper table (a
distinctive feature of southern house
holds), and her handling of the chafing

Common eardon sago brewed into a

ed, will turn gray, streaked and faded
hair beautifully dark ami luxuriant, re
move every bit of dandruff,-, stop scaip
itching anil falling hair. Just a few
applications will prove a revelation if
vour hair is fadng, gray or dry, scrag
elv and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea
and Sulphur recipe at homo, though, is
troublesome. An easier way is to get
the ready-to-use tonic, costing about
."0 cents a largo bottle at drug stores,
known as ''Wvcth's Saee and Snl-
nhiir Compound." thus avoiding a
of muss.
While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to 'retain our youth
ful appearance and attractiveness. By
darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur, no one can tell, because
it does it so naturally, so evenly. You
just dampen a sponge or solt brush
with it and draw this through your
hair, taking cue small strand at a time;
by morning all gray hairs have disap
peared, and, after another application
or two, your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy, spft and luxuriant.

MT. PLEASANT ITEMS
l'hoto uopyrliiht, 1915, by American Press Association.
THE PRESIDENT AND HIS BRIDE.
the trace of a very eventful year was
written unmistakably Into his face and
physique. Kspoclally did he show the
stress and travail which lie has nnder
Kono during the last five yeara. To
day, apparently without a care In the
world, he looks less than fifty. His air
of austere reserve has welted away,
ud he Is all graclousness. Nobody can
doubt that under the Influence of tho
simple, gracious, companionable wo
man he has won, "tho year's at the
spring" for him, Moreover, ho devel
oped an enthusiasm lu his courtship
hat proved a delight and surprise for
those who thought they knew him best
The "Something Blue."
'The same turquoise bracelet worn
by other brides of this ndmlulslrntlon
Mrs. Frauds Howes Sayre and Mrs.
William Ulbha McAdoo adorns the
arm of the president's bride. It Is
tho property of Miss Mnrgnret Wlwm
and supplies the "something borrowed
and aomethlng blue" ucccssary to car
ry out the old brldnl superstition.
The "something old" Is a piece of
rare old rose point from a famous Boil
ing collection. The wedding gowu, of
course, provides tho "something new."
The Unit home In Twentieth street
was put lu spick and span order for the
ceremony and the festivities Incident
thereto. The floral scheme Is on tin
llnljomto order, hnvlng been worked
ut by experts of tho White Hmtso
conservatories.
The tall mirrored mantel In the
drawing room, which has been done
over In American llcauty tints, Is bank
ed with llllea of the vulley and Klllnr
tiey roses. Tho tall pulms which have
formed part of tlw decorations nt all
White House weddings since tbnt of
Nellie Grant have been placed In the
drawing room.
The dining room, the sceuo of the
nvoddlng feast, la one of tho most In
teresting rooms lu tho house. The
long mnhognny table, nn heirloom In
the brlde'a family, has been polished
o ultra brightness. The old fashioned
tufPrt Is laden with gifts of scores
of friends uud with the bund wrought
silver of the Boiling family,
The country has never witnessed
cash to buy trousseaux ud lib for a
family of girls remarkable for their
beauty and popularity was not always
available, wherefore Miss Kdlth Boll
lug began to utlllxe her girt for line
and form and for color and design.
Twenty-flvo years ago in Wylhevllle,
Vs., the new first lady as n girl In her
teens developed a great reputation In
the large family connection for her
ability to buy, to cut out, to tit and to
make up divers frocks for divers occa
sions. Ho, too, with hats. She has
great skill In (he building of a hat. She
can "poise a wing" or twist a ribbon
Into a bow with the skill of a trained
hand.
Not 7ond of Jewelry.
"She hns less jewelry than any mem
ber of the family," said one of the con
nection tho other day. "I should any
she had no favorite gem. The opal Is
her blrthstono and Is seen In the hand
some bodice Jewels, brooches or rings
she possesses. She never cared for
Jewels, even as A young girl."
Tho bride Is fond of flowers. No mat
ter what the blossom. Its color, lis
fragrance, Its shape, Its size, she Is
fond of flowers. Tho president's enrll
est remembrance took tho form of ex
quisite clusters of orchids, sometimes
while, sometimes yellow, sometimes
miiuve. Hugo clusters of rich red roses
sometimes replaced the orchids, and
again bunches of lilies of the valley
heautlllcd tho smart toilets In which
ho appeared cither In public or In the
drawing rooms of her friends.
A few books showed tho president's
thoughtfulness from tlmo to tlmo.
While not either bookish or a "bluo
stocking," tho brldo Is n remarkably
well Informed woman. She hns made
nlno or ton trips to Europe, and each
llmo she baa gono she has slopped for
periods varying from six months to n
year. She Is Keenly observant, mm sno
delights In leisurely touring about In
unfrequented paths.
A Simple Woman.
"You may take It from me, Kdlth
never docs anything for effect ur lw
cn.uo It is considered 'the thlmt to do.'
Shu Is In love with tho mnn Woodrow
Wilson. The glamour of the White
IIouso did not attract her or Influence
dish on these occasions conduces to
the good digestion which waits on ap
petite. She Is n familiar figure in the Wash
ington markets, her smart little run
about many tlmoa being filled with the
more perishable fruits of her domestic
shopping.
Altogether she would make a "fine
wife for a poor man."
She Is open handed and generous, a
devoted church woman and uutll quite
recently a member of St. Thomas' 'Epis
copal church. She now attends St.
Margaret's, where ber brother, Itlch-
ard Wllmer Boiling, Is nu usher and
where her mother, Mrs. W. H. Boiling;
her unmarried brother, John Itandolph
Boiling, and her sister, Miss Bertha
Boiling, also attend.
Fond of Young People.
To show the younger contingent a
good time" Is one of her nltriliutcs.
Not less Is she considerate of tho aged.
Many Instances of her looking up the
Invalid and elderly and taking them
for drive ntiotit the parks are record
ed. Tho mother of a young eqnthorn
woman employed lu ono of the govern
ment departments came to visit her
daughter, whom tho president's brldo
had frequently met. Almost dally
throughout tho visit sho appeared ei
ther In (he afternoon or morning and
acted as cicerone.
As to her accomplishment, the bride,
possessing nn nv!d mlud and having
traveled extetislvcly-sho has passed
some time In every country In Europe
and has traveled throughout the Unit
ed Stales, Canada, and Alaska-Is thor
oughly In touch with tho thought and
development of the life of the day. She
speaks French well. She Is a talented
pianist. Her lino mor.o soprano voice,
whllo untrained. Is admirably suited to
ballad singing. Sho Is fond or singing.
So nlso Is the president, who himself
has n good voice.
Finally she Is well poised, "very hu
man" and thoroughly unaffected and
slinvro. Not only charmingly pretty,
she bus the distinction of manner and
carriage which will admirably conform
to tho role she Is soon to nssume-chnt-elalno
of the White llouso and first
lady of the land.

(From the Pacific, Cosst Manu
facturer.) As a result of numerous conferences
over the 0. & C. laud grant of 2,3(10,000
ares, the state bids fair to lose its $2,
000,000 delinquent taxes and get no set
tlers on the land.
The lawyers prefer litigation to set
tlement, and new suits have been start
ed, and the politicians prefer to let it
be known that they are ferninst cor-
lot norations in Dereference to iustice.
In place of unraveling the tangle and
getting revenues for the state and set
tlers on the laud that can he settled,
demagogs keep howling for snles at
$2.50 per aero.
In tho meantime, suits have been
started to collect delinquent taxes in
Douglas county where tho sume lands
have been assessed at $14 per aero.
Some office-seekers care nothing for
the essential dishonesty of a proposi
tion, when the state and the counties
have been taking these lands at $10 to
$15 nn acre to demand sale at $2.o0 an
acre.
They know that will buy them votes
among the unthinking class of voters
who have no scruples at robbing the
corporation or the. state itself if they
enn do it by sharp practices.
The 0. & C. company very blandly
refuses to pay its taxes nt $14 an acre
in Douglas county when the state and
the federal courts say they hnvo only
a $2.50 interest in the property.
Those suits will be carried to the
highest courts aud then new suits will
be started, and the poor old tnte of
Oregon will get neither settlers nor
taxes.
The lawyers arc after big fees anil
the politicians have promised their
friends lands at $2.50 an acre to buy
their support in tho primaries and elec
tions. In tho meantime, state and county
tuxes mount higher and actual settlers
arc kept off the lands in the interost of
a speculative class nlready lined up for
the timber syndicates.
lu addition the state of Oregon runs
two other dangers tliut the ruilroad
company defaults in payment of taxes
and bids in the land grunt, thus getting
a rinul title.
No ono else would have the two mil
lion dollars to put up for the delinquent
taxes, winch with costs would amount
to half a million dollars additional.
Finally the state stands to lose the
property for taxable purposes by action
of congress turning it into the forest
reserves as urged by the forestry officials.
For Women
Who Are
Ailing
The best advice is-don't neglect matters. Take
prompt and proper care at the start of a bilious at
tack, a sick headache, indigestion, a feeling of lassi
tude or depression, if you want to keep well, strong
and happy. None of these complaints is serious in
itself, but may bejn what it brings about Neglect
breeds disease. The wise thing to do-the -best
thing to do the safe thing to do is to take
