FAMILIES OF PRESIDENTS
Some facts regarding the fam
ily relations of our presidents
may be of interest, as they are
obably little known to the
average reader. How many,
for example, could tell off
hand how many presidents nev
er married? The answer is,
only one., Buchanan.
All the rest were married,
and five of them married
twice, Tyler, Fillmore, Benja
min Harrison, Roosevelt and
Wilson. Seven married wid
ows, Washington, Jefferson,
Madison, Jackson, Fillmore,
B. Harrison and Wilson, the
last three taking widows as
their second wives.
The wives of Jefferson, Jack
son, Van Buren and Arthur
died before their husbands be
c a m e president. Cleveland
went into office as a bachelor,
but was married during his
first term.
Washington, Madison, Jack
son, Polk and Harding were J
childless. Tyler was the father
of 14 children, seven by each
of his wives. W. H. Harrison
was the father of 10, Hayes
was the father of eight, Jeffer
son, Taylor and Roosevelt
were the fathers of six each.
Two widows of presidents
remarried. Mrs. Cleveland
married T. J. Preston, Jr., a
professor of archeology, in 19
13, about five years after her
husband’s death. Mrs. Benja
min Harrison married James

Blaine Walker, Jr., her third
husband, in 1921, when she
was 64 years of age.
The most unusual circum
stance connected with the mar
tial relations of any president
concerned Andrew Jackson.
Believing that Mrs. Lewis Ro
bards had been divorced from
her husband, he married her in
1791, only to discover that the
decree oif divorce had not yet
been granted. Later the de
cree was issued and Jackson
remarried Mrs. Robards in 17
94.
A RAILROAD NICKNAME
How a chance remark may be
perpetuated is illustrated by
the nickname which has clung
to the New York, Chicago &
St. Louis Railroad for nearly
half a century.
Opened to traffic in 1882,
the road was only moderately
successful in its early years. In
1885 the owners sought to sell
it to the New York Central
and named a price. As the
story goes, when Commodore
Vanderbilt was informed of
the figure named he roared:
“I wouldn’t pay that if the
tracks were nickel plated.”
Later a price was agreed up
on, however, and Vanderbilt
bought the New York, Chicago
& St. Louis. But to this day
the road is known as the Nickel
Plate.

glacier, the Malaspina, consists

i(VJ OW look here, Dorothy," her
father said with a sudden con
traction of Ids thick eyebrows, “out
there against his plains and moun
tains your western hero may have
looked nil right, but get him here in
the East and facing a finger-bowl and
lie wouldn’t know what to do with
it. He’d probably drink the wa
ter—”
“But I don’t see—”
"I know you don’t. Honey, but I do.
Just now, you won’t think of these
tilings, so your dad must. Anyhow’,
mother and I are going to invite him
here, and we’re all going to get a
good chance to look him over.”
Dorothy's feelings were mixed
when she left her father. To see
Maylan again—she had been plotting
and scheming herself, but she had
thought more of going out to his fa
ther's rancli again rather than hav
ing him visit her aristocratic home
in the East. Now lie was to come—
big, bronzed, handsome. What did
she care if they made fun of him be
hind his and her back?”
But her mood of quiet happiness
in the news of Ids coming was marred
by tlie attitude of her friends.
"So tlie wild and woolly one Is
coming, is lie, Dora?” one of her
friends asked. "1 am crazy to see
itiin. Is be bow-legged from riding
too much? Do you suppose we could
get him to give an Indian war
whoop?”
“He’s not bow-legged! You people
will drive me wild! I want you to
know lie went to college one year,
and then bad to go back to the ranch
because bis father was Injured, and
lie's got as big a library there as
any of us—bigger!” she argued.
But even as she rose In bis defense
little quaking fears began to disturb
her. lie probably would appear un
couth among them and be would j
lie at a loss as to many of the proper |
ways of doing tills and that.
So into her inmost heart crept the
shadows of nn unhappiness that she
could not drive away, but her thoughts
were more of him than of herself.
It almost seemed to her that her
father was deliberately planning to
make things difficult for Maylan. The :
gathering In his honor was to bring !
the blue blood of the suburban coun- i
tryside people who would be sure to 1
note and enjoy blunders that a some- j
what uncultured man would make.
The night of Maylan’s coming ar
rived. Her father was to bring him
from the city with him.
She could hardly keep still as she
wnited for the sound of the car. She j
was often at the window—so often
that her younger brother broke In
with—"Sis, what’s the matter with
you. (fee, he must be some chap for
you to act this way!”
When he did come and she went to
greet him, her first wild desire was
to throw herself into his arms, but
she knew her father did not think
“things had gone that far.” So she
checked herself and in that checking
she had time to notice how plainly
he was dressed.- He seemed uncom
fortable. Only his eyes were calm
urn! serene—and Dorothy knew she
loved what lay behind the calm eyes.
Her father led him away to his room.
She dressed for the evening in a
simple white dress that she knew
would please him and went down
from her room. The guests were ar
riving, and she found herself busy
greeting them.
Suddenly a stir among them made
her turn. Down the broad stairs
came two men; one white-haired, dis
tinguished; and beside him, dark of
hair and eye, serene, In evening
clothes that lifted him perfectly; an
other, powerful of form and poised |
of bearing. Dorothy caught her
breath ns she saw him—Maylan!
Soon she was Introducing him. He
met her friends easily, with Just a
trace of retiring shyness.
Then, later through ail the In
tricate courses of the Intricate din
ner, he went without blunder. Under
her gentle prodding and the challenge
of others, he told stories from the
lore of his plains and mountains, tell
ing the tales so fascinatingly that
the room was often still of every
other sound than his voice.
