Nevertheless she stands out as the greatest of all mistresses of the White House, and hur popularity wns unbounded. She ruled over her world in Washington with genial good nature und Instinc tive tact. Her nature was warm, af fectionate and Impressionable. Sho loved life and people, and her world loved her. Her brilliant coloring, unl imited face and well rounded figure Went with a cordial manner and n sym pathy for those about her amounting to genius, und she was always ready to bubble into laughter. Who could resist such a woman, the wife of a president? She was the cen ter of observation at the Inaiigtirnl bull, lail she would have been tin- cen ter of observation at any ball even if she bail not been the president's wife.
