Lothrop, the Well Itnown author, and tho ablest writer'In this lino In America today. Mrs.

Lothrop has a peculiar, double fitness for this work; from tho literary side, her knowledge of tho groat people of tlie day and her original way of putting'things, and from the the largest collection of portraits In the world, which enables her to select the best possible views of her subjects. "Mrs. Lothrop," says a famous erltle, "lias unusual ability In presenting the vital elementsj of a man's character RO cleverly, BO del'tly, so humanly, and subordinating dates and details, thai from her pen we get. living biographies that sbow the' man, his qualities and his life. Some artists can give more In-a thumb-nail slietch than can present In a panoramic painting.

One rises from reading ono ot her biographic, sketches with tho fooling that one has actually met the Individual of whom tshc writes, and caught a perfect insight Into his character." Mrs. Lothrop has the distinctive honor of possossing tho largest collection of portraits in the world, now numbering over treasury of portraiture unappronched by that of any museum or library In existence. It comprises photographs, sloel-nngravlngg, half-tones, ernyon sketches, woodcuts, pen-and-ink studies, photogravures and every variety of modern photo- roproductlon processes. In tho collection are thousands of pictures of Iho homos of famous people, Interiors of their libraries, views of their grounds, etc. Authors, actors, statesmen, philanthropists, educators, inventors, oratorfc, inembprs of royal families, well-known society women, famous people In all walks of life, past and present, the world over, are hero gathered together.

The time, patience, concentration of Industry and systematic attention to detail expended In arranging snob collection is yet despite it all Mrs. Lothrop finds leisure for an unusual amount of literary work. says that "the close study of pictures of men and women gives marvelous, quickness reading tho life-story in tho fac.6. Tho collector begins to become conscious of the fact that he has boon absorbing wisdom, making deductions and.comparisons, almost without knowing how or why. As tbo naturalist finds nil animals falling into clearly defined clasHlfleatlon, so does the student of faces see men and women as belonging to certain types, and from few details he can determine what are likely to be their principal characteristics." Fannie M.

Lolbrop was born In Wisconsin of a family stock that shows fineness as a. marked characteristic of all its members. Her father, I. V. Mack, a New England gentleman of that class wo fondly term "the old ihpol," was a-lawyer, educator and thinker 6f rare power and singular ofmlnd.

He''founded the. public schools of Hochcsfcor, N. anil was all local movements during; his residence there, removing Wisconsin, where bo became prominent and wealthy by reason of "his legal talent. Mrs. Lothrop's mother, a gentlewoman of sweetness, culture and rare nobility and strength of character, IB a cousin of John Pierpont, tlio American poet who was the J.

Pierpont Morgan. Mrs. Lothrop spent a most happy childhood In a beautiful home on the banks of Sugar River, Wisconsin. She was for two years a student of Oborlin College, standing highest in her class, and a graduate of tho Cook County Normal College of Chicago. Her musical genius early attracted attention and her native power was developed by tbe best teachers, seven years of the time being under the instruction of V.

Flagler, of Chicago. Sho is brilliant In conversation and well-informed on all topics of tho day. She Is not a "now Woman" In any sense of tbo word. In her library, filled with tho best works of tbe best thinkers, she does all her literary work. Her wonderful grace of movement is so striking a characteristic that at a balloting at a fashionable summer resort a few years ago she was unanimously pronounced to bo "tbo most, graceful woman in tho This verdict was given by both sexes, oqiial suffrage being tho order of the day.
