An evening At the white House

II IL we'll known that Mrs. Hayes Is
especially friendly to artists. and al
ways extends " them An invitation to
cali on her while staying in Washing
ton. In response to her kind invitation
Miss Emma Abbott informally visited
her Sunday evening, in company with
Bessie Beach" On lraving the car
riags at the White House Miss Abbott
met Gen. Sherman and his daughter,
and the General SAYS: Why, Miss
Abbott, 10 that YOU What fortunate
thing it is that | cane this evening,
AMI he gallantly escorted the lady to
the red parlor. The President and
Mrs. Hayes, General and Mrs. Hastings
and Chief Justice Waite we're introduc
cd, and later in ths evening Attorney
General Devsns and Representative
Mckinley called. and most delig ghtful
evening was enjoyed. As Mrs. Hayes
had ex pressed q wish for Miss Ahb't
to sing some hymns, a pianist came in
about 9 o'clock, and Miss Abbott sang
two hymns--one "Nearer My God to
Thee" especially prepared for her,
with such pathos and power that 1t
drew tears from her listeners. The
President, anxious that his little
daughter should hear Miss Abbott, had
her walked up, and tile nurse came
down TO the parlor with her while Miss
Abbott was singing. 1t was great
surprise to Miss Abbott to meet Chief
Justice Waite, who heard her sing
nine years ago in Toledo, after her
eventful journey on which she sold her
dress to get money to reach that city.
Miss Abbott related the incidents Of
that journey, her hunger, cold cheer.
lrssn.ss, her desperation and the temp
tation 10 commit suicide so touching
ly that II will not soon be- forgotten.
Miss Abbott was delighted with her
visit, aud the inmates Of the White
House were equally well pleased with
her. Washington Star. Oct. 70.

A lady writes to an exchange as fol-
lows: "Think perhaps might add a
mite that would be Of benefit to some of
the many readers Of this department, and
wishing for recipe which would be of
great help to me, / have. tor the first
time, taken up nv pen to tell what I
know. To those that are troubled with
bed bugs: Remove all your furniture
from the rooms, after cleaning it of all
bugs and ,nits; then place pan Of Goals
in the room and pour good supply Of
birthstone on it; then close the room tight
and let it smoke; do not open until the
smoke has all gone out through tn crew
ices; then take wet cloth and wipe off
the WOO lwork, and, before placing your
furniture back, anoint all the cracks with
anguentum- have tried this way twice,
and have been very successful. Also, q
good way to get rid Of those little red
ants that are SO troublesome to some.
Watch them, and when you find out
where they travel to, just turn kerosene
Oil into their nests, and do not be afraid
to nse it. I think you will soon
be rid Of them. 1 got rid Of
them in that way, in q house where
could not keep anything out Of their
reach, upstairs and down; they never
troubled me aftefward.
