Lady Washington.

Lady Washington, who was perhaps
the most charming and accomplished
woman that has ever graced the Presi-
dental Mansion, had the courage to main
tain in that excellent position the Sim
plicity of manners and dress which had
always characterized her. In that early
day there were those who loved dress and
display, and some of them had deter
mined to call at the mansion and insist
upon greater ceremony and display.
One morning three fair danes appeared
at the mansion dressed very gaily and
splendidly, and diamonds glittered in
their ears and on their necks. Their
rich silks fell in heavy folds about them.
They came rustling, futtering into the
presence of Lady Washington. She re-
ceived them with dignitied courtesy.
She heard what they had to say very gra-
ciously. But they did not find it so easy
to give advice, when face to face with
the noble woman who through years of
anxiety and privstion ministered to the
wants of the suffering soldiers during the
terrible struggle for independence. She
said: ladies, believe we were made
for more noble purpose than to display
superAuous finery, which mars rather
than improves the graces that nature has
given US. Ladies, during eight years Of
ceaseless struggle the noble women Of
America spent no money for fnery.
They spent all Of their available means
in providing clothes for the soldiers. II

ABD-EL-KADER, the famous Algerian
chief, is living in Damascus, where he has
been visited by Charles Warren Stoddard,
now travelling in the East. His time is
mostly devoted to literature, and he is es.
pecially interested in Arabian poetry.
He said that the chief modern poets in
that tongue dwell in Damascus. His
eyes, which were inexpressibly sad,
frightened as he touched upon this
theme, but he soon relapsed into a mood
the image of hopeless detection. The
once proud chieftain lives in his tattered
and furnished pavilion in the paradise of
the Orient, and dreams away his life
among the choicest poets of his time.
When bis thirty-day fast comes on he
shuts himself in room so small he can
not even lie down in it, feeds sparingly
upon bread, leeks and olives. and sees no
one during all the fast, not excepting his
wife. To my delight, when begged for
an autograph Of my illustrious host, he
turned to servant who had stood near
him during our visit, ordered his ink horn,
and when it was produced he held the pa.
per in his left hand, writing acrvss the
palm OF it As easily as if he had never
known any more convenient desk. He
wrote IN hand as beautiful rs the traecry
on Damascus blade, Praise be Ia God
alone. Mr. s,oddard in Damascus ha.
this day called on me AsDn-kApER. =
