Washington laniHi.
Th purchase for President Wilson
of the former home in Washington
of Henry P. Kail banks. 23 40 S. street,
northwest, was announce! last week
by It. W. Uuline. tiie president's
brother-in-law. The home will be
the permanent result-nee of the Presi
dent after his rctirnnent from office
March 4ih. Mr. Holms said the
property would pass in.o possession
uf its new owner Kebtuary 15th or
bt.foie.
The price paid was not made pub
lic, but it is reported to have been
in the neighborhood of $15". urn). The
home was built about four years ago
and is of colonial brick mid lime
ttoue. It is surrounded by giouuds
that take up nearly 'ialt a square and
is taisej well above the stri-et leel.
Tho house the President bought ii
a magniliccnt four-story brick and is
directly on the street. It is the sec
ond house from Massachusetts ave
nue on S street and is juM where the
sirn't slopes down to the fashionable
t hoi miL-hl. ire. There are two large
pi.lars eacli side of the entrance door
which leads into a re-c.option hall done
in blue. On one side of this is a
luxe living room with an inviting
fireplace. The house is close to the
street and stands solid between
houses on either side so thete are no
side windows. The house has plenty
of natural light, however, because of
its depth back to Massachusetts ave
nue. S street and Massachusetts avenue
meet at a point a hundred feet down
the hill. Up S street at 23rd is a
, municipal play ground. The nelgh
i bcrhriod is exclusive, being Just over
the hill from Connecticut avenue and
'awav from the old-time closely built
houses abounding in that section. To
the north the neighborhood inc(udes
such homes as those of John Hays
. Hammond and Senator Harding. Just
around the turn on Massachusetts av
iiue is ihe naval observatory and
fiirt her up the hill St. Albans cathe
dral. It Is expected the president's
purchase' will result in a great boom
in the vacant acreage along Masso
chusetts avenue that the speculators
have been holding; for years.
Of Course Wily Not?
The women of this country are
among the best dre.-sed of their sex
in the world.
i ThOTe may he other countries
where more extreme styles are used
and where a more spectacular ap
pearance Is noticeable, but nowhere
lis there to be found a more refined
elegance in dress than among the
Amerfiean women.
This applies to rich and poor alike.
In many of the foreign countries,
women of l!ie poorer classes do not
preserve the same neatness of inex
pensive simplicity that we find among
the less fortunate of cur own land.
Willi a very few except ioi. ihe
American woman is nntirnlly neat in
her dress and personal appeatanco.
She cannot he unything else, Sloppl
ness Is foreign to her nature.
The cheapest kind of a dress Is
Invariably worn with a pnice which
is nn inherent peculiarity of our
femininity.
Possibly our freedom from the old
world caste has something to do
with it.
We have no blooded aristocracy,
and we have no peasantry. Every
toman has a legitimate right to con
sider herself as pood as any other
woman, though one may be revMin;
in the lap of luxury and the other
suffering the pinch of poverty.
The woman who skimps to make
both ends meet today may be ihe will
of a president a lew years hence.
The door of hope stands open to
every American woman, and hop'
begets pi loo, and pride demands
neatness, cleanliness and purity .
In dress, ns in all other d'sirfMe
tnlts, the American woman has few
equals nnd no superiors. Exchange.
