A Queen Of Washington Society.



Tie Washington go-sips are again in
raj tires over Mrs. Attorney General VII
liams. No lady in Washington, they de-
clare, has more sffability than she, aud few
can compare with her In spirit. tact, or fine
personnel. Her figure has regalned its
gracefully filled curves, and her cheeks are
once more blooming. Her house is pc
ture of elegance, and the salon for recep
tons extends from the from: to the rear of
the house. The carpet is of rich Axminis
ter, with pals-gray ground, relieved from
tameness by flowers with faintest tints Of
pink and blue. At one side is a square
bow window. separated from the room pro-
per by rich iace curtains, 10 which stand
two or three easy cushions for those who
like little "prisate and confidential con-
versation amid the flowers and plants IN
the beautiful jardiniere, and within sound
Of flute and basso9n.' The furniture is
all Of pale blue satin damask, and in the
middle Of the room stands an exquisite
circular divan, IRON the centre of which
uprlses a cone-shaped pedestal, crowned
with q tall bronze antique vase filled with
exquisite flowers and trailing vines. Mrs.
Williams supervised this diyan herself
and, IN fact. assisted in its manufacture,
She is mistress Of the patent, and her
paIlors exhibit, the only one of the kind in
the city. The woodwork of the house is
/ OF Black walnut, and the Applique lace cur
taiDs and satin damask lambrequins fall
| from deep gilt cornices. The purchase of
the real estate, planning and erection of the
domicile, furnishing, and 50 forth, were all
directly under her own overseeing. A real
estate man declares that Mrs. Williams has
a fine head for business. Why che bought
that rore rty on Rhode Island avenue when
it was worth only 70 cents per foot, and
now it is valued at fully $3.50 square
foot, and she has given me authority to sci
the lots adjoining her grounds some sever
in number-thus realizing a very handson,
percentage.

Was Gov. Hoffman Elected By a
False Count:


Mr.. Conkling repeats the state political
SANDER that obn L. Hoffman WAS not cleo
ted Governor of our State in 1868. On
what proof does be base this asser ZION? He
knows that a Congressional Committee
searched in vain for evidence sufficient to
invaiidate the ELECTORAL vote of New York
that year, and he knows that Hoffman ran
ahead of the election ticket not only in
New York city, but in other sections of the
State. He makes this bold and false state
NEXT, and deduces from it-wtat moral?
Why, as near MS We can make out, his point
is that an elected Governor has no right to
his Office, but that it should always be given
to the defeated candidate

Every year increases the popularity of
this valuable Hair Preparation which is
due to merit alone. We can assure our
oldpatrons chat it is kept fully up to its high
standard; and it is the only reliable aud
perfected preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color, max

scalp, by its use, becomes white and clean.
1t removes all eruptions and dandrutf, and.
by its tonic properties, prevents the hair
from falling out, as it stimulates and
nourishes the hair-glands. By ITS use, the
hair grows thicker and stronger. In bald
ness, it restores the capillary glands to
their normal vigor, and win create a new
growth, except in extreme old age. 1t is
the most economical HAIR DREssING ever
