July 9. —Imagine a wom an at the magnetic age of middle life, soft in voice, matronly in contour, brown of eye and hair, above the aver age in height, charming in personality, and you have the present mistress of the "Little White House" and possible future mistress of the "Big White House” at Washington—Mrs. Wood row Wilson, who, until young Lawyer Wilson came a-courting back in 1885, was Miss Ellen Louise Axson, of Rome, Ga. Mrs. Wilson is still surrounded by the aura that clings to the soft, dreamy South, and more particularly to the old fasffiioned Southern woman, the woman who was once described by a distin guished visitor from abroad as "God's agent on eartit." It was at the close of a dinner party given at the summer executive man sion that the wife of the Democratic nominee for the highest office within the gift of his party received a repre sentative of The Atlanta Georgian. From the drawing room one could see Governor Wilson on the glttss-enclosed veranda, chatting .with a bevy of friends, while his gaze wandered to the deep line of blue, beyond a sweep of green, that marks the sea. She’s a Real Artist. On one of the big tables in the draw ing room, the only one unadorned with beautiful floral testimonials of friend ship, stood a huge Independence day cake in red and white and blue. On, the wail opposite the huge fireplace was a life-size painting of the Madon na, one usually gracious and free from ecclesiasticism. This was the last por trait Mrs. Wilson did before taking up landscape work several years ago. It is only one of the gems front Mrs. Wilson’s brush, a brush with so mas terful and vivid a stroke that an art critic recently- gave it as his opinion that “if Mrs. Wilson could devote all her time to her art. she would undoubt edly take first rank among the women artists of the New World.” "The Madonna is a copy—only that,” said Mrs. Wilson, motioning the visitor to a seat on the big divan opposite the painting. “The original is wonderful. I’m glad you like the copy*.” A study of the painting makes the spectator realize that the artist's beau tiful spirit of motherhood is reflected— the spirit of motherhood which Mrs. Wilson believes to be the ideal type of womanhood. Gives Her Idea of Happy Life. “The happiest life for a woman.” said Mrs. Wilson, smiling happily,, “con tains three elements—a husband with whose tastes you sympathize, your home and your children. I've often saia —and I’m sure my husband, practical theorist that he is, agrees with ine— that husbands and wives reach their truest and’ noblest development when they are complimentary to each other. That's the way I feel about my hus band. 1 want him to feel that I am always at his side." When she speaks of her husband Mrs. Wilson’s fine eyes light with enthu siasm, and her conversation proves her splendid grasp of big social and politi cal topics. "To say that 1 am pleased at Mr. Wilson's nomination is superfluous,” she continued earnestly. "I am proud of the trust that has been reposed in my husband. What woman would not be? Isn't it a great thing for a wom an to realize that the man she loves is considered by a great political party to be worthy of the highest office in the land? "But 1 can not say that I am elated at the honor that has come to Mr. Wil son,” added the governor's wife soberly. in n | For Wednesday and Thursday i I White Pumps I : rj .^ t A : | and Oxfords I I 95c i I 1 D • ■ I 162 Pairs White Canvas Pumps and Lace Oxfords, values up to $3.50, a special | pre-inventory bargain for Wednesday and i Thursday selling.

But no brave man fears or shirks responsibilities— rather he prays that his abilities will measure up to his responsibilities. Has Faith in Husband’s Ability. “Mr. Wilson has an opptrunlty to dv>_ enormous good if he is permitted to carry out the principles and the high Ideals for which he stands and has al ways stood. I know my husband bet ter perhaps than any other persons in this country. I have faith that he will live up to his opportunities. "I want others to know my husband as I know him. You know my hus band’s Ideals and mine have always been supplementary to each other. I have the greatest confidence in his ability to render practical the theoret ical ideals which he holds. I have such great confidence in the clearness of his vision that I have frequently accepted his ideas on subjects about which I had no opportunity for personally in quiring into. “1 believe that Mr. Wilson will be elected. If he is, I believe he will make a good president. To my mind he pos sesses one of the most essential char acteristics of a good president—sin cerity. "Mr, Wilson is the very essence of unselfishness. He never thinks of him self. I have to do that part of his thinking for him. That is one reason I say we are supplementary. “Home Woman’s Sphere; World Man’s” “It seems to me that a woman has almost enough to do in attending to her home. While I believe it wise for a wife to know everything about her husband's business affairs, 1 do not be lieve in a wife interfering in his busi ness affairs. The home is woman's sphere, the world Is man's. "A man does not want to be both ered with housekeeping details. As a rule, they are too trivial to be dis cussed. It Is a good rule for wives not to trouble their husbands with the vagaries or idiosyncrasies of the butch er and the baker. "Do not take this to mean that a wife should not spur her husband on in his vocation.” continued Mrs. Wilson. "That seems to be the double function of woman—ambition accelerator and mental recreator. A wife should make it her business to see that her husband secures a few hours’ mental recreation every day." "Have you kept up with recent po litical developments?” Mrs. Wilson was asked. “Indeed I have," she answered quick ly. “I have been the most interested person in the household, and that is saying a great deal. The most thril ling thing to me has been the visits of Dudley Field Malone, Senator O’Gor man's son-in-law, and other fine young men of his type, who called here and told of the splendid confidence they have in Mr. Wilson and his convictions on public questions.” Enjoy* Excellent Health. Touching upon the new social duties that will develop upon her in the event of Governor Wilson’s election, Mrs. Wilson said: “I have only been to Washington once. It seems curious, but I visited the national capital on only one occa sion. This was a few years ago, when I accompanied Mr. Wilson to Wash ington, where he was to make an ad dress.” Mrs. Wilson said that she enjoys ex cellent health, although she has al ways insisted upon numerous outside interests as a means of “broadening one's nature.” "I have splendid health. 1 conserve my strength as much as possible, and I do not attempt things beyond my strength. If I did something more im portant would probably suffer in con sequence. I think that American wom en, as a rule, have too many interests at once. Thus they draw upon their strength far in excess of what they should to keep their health. "However, the tireless energy of the twentieth century woman is wonderful to behold. It is a manifestation of the awakening spirit of American woman hood—a spirit that is destined to help us maintain ourselves in the vanguard of civilization. I am a great believer in the intellect, strength of character and optimism of thje American wom an.” With this as her motto, Mrs. Wilson promises to be one of the most popular hostesses who ever extended the hand of welcome to white house visitors.
