The illness of Mrs. Harding, now
■
oart of the country. When the grav
i her condition became known
>mpathetic response was Imme
rtiare, spontaneous, universal. Ex
tiation does not lie wholly in the
ct that the sufferer is the wife of
1'resident. In large measure it
4 < s in the huraanne.-is of the Hard
's:*. in the fact th.it over and above
maintaining the official character of
the White House tiiey have given it j
an atmosphere of friendliness—al
most of neighborliness. What the
Hardings were in their home town |
of Marion, and larer in the senatorial
life of Washington, they have been
in the White House. There has been
the same freedom from pose, the
same simplicity and cordiality. There
has been no stately mystery about
their lives, no appearance of isola
tion. And all this without sacrifice
of dignity or of conventional form.
Sincerity and simplicity have
marked the conduct of Mrs. Harding

from the hour she entered the White
House us its mistress. Of her suf
ficiency upon formal occasions the
whole world has knowledge, but it
has remained for kindly gossip to re
veal a more intimate expression of
her character. A recent visitor at the
White House tells of finding Mrs.
Harding busy transferring a piece of
silk from a sofa pillow to repair a
break in the covering of a chair. It
was a small economy characteristic
of careful a.id thrifty housewifery,
and under the circumstances espec
ially pleasing. A recent dinner gues;
at the White House upon being ten
dered a cup Of coffee brewed upon
the table by the hostess begged off
upon the plea that he suffered a
state of nerves under which indulg
enge In coffee nt night implied later
denial of sleep. "This will not narm
you," replied Mrs. Harding; "It
comes right from home—from Mar
ion, It is warranted not to affect
the most sensitive nerves." "My
wife," replied the guest, "Is a cof
fee lover and she has tested all the
substitutes and dopes, but none of
them work with us." There was no
further insistence, but later, npon
his leaving the White House, there
was handed him with his hat and
coat a tin of coffee for big wife with
the compliments of Mrs. Harding.
Trivial thiugs. to be sure. None the
less significantly revealing kindli
ness—a neighborly honieiness—on
the part of the mistress of the White
House.
President Harding has had his
share in maintaining a gracious at
mosphere in the great official estab
lishment for the time being his
home and ir. his keeping. The cour
tesy that marks his official hours is
transmuted into cordiality the mo
ment he enters the domestic atmos
phere. It is universal testimony that
no host could be more free from any
form of affection, more solicitous
for the comfort of whoever may be
his guest.

tier and Joe Radcliffe, who were tak
ing a load of provis! ma to him.

that he wa3 dozing, and called to
him, but, getting no response, they
approached him and then discovered

worked on the hydroullcs on Treas

the cause of his sudden death, lie

tion of the circumstance.
NEW ITALIAN PREMIER
SNEERS AT BRITISH
London. Nov. 24 —Mussol'nl, the
now Italian premier, has a cabinet
of curious structure. He is to be his
own foreign minister and nowhere
could his loud rhetoric be brought
so speedily face to face with real!
ties. Mussolini stands for definite
and noisy antl-Britlsh policy. He
tinds It a pleasant pastime to sneer
at the English pretended goodwill
toward Italy and at what he con
siders the laughable, feeble help we
gave the Italian army during the
war. He wants the Mediterranean to
be an Italian lake, with the British
cleared out of Malta. He has always
advocated a friendly policy towards
Turkey and Russia, having a keen
eye for concessions in the Levant
and southern Russia.
