MRS. U. S. GRANT.

One Woman Who Has Not Spoiled by
Prosperity and h Homage OF tho
World.
We do not hear much of Mrs. Grant ex-
cept now and then q description of one of
ner fine toilets, and the following reminis-
cence from one of her ola time friends is
pleasant:
There is one thing that seems to me
always like a fairy tale, and l have thought
OF 1t q thousand times since that day. There
| vas q time when the captain had a run of
bud c Things went wrong and he was
pretty poor, 80 julia Mrs. Grant aud
the children were home at her fathers.
We were all going to a hop given by the
officers. and of course, wanted her to 10, too.
She wished to 60, l know, but ehe had no
dress she thought good enough to wear.
Friend fashion, we leased her, suggesting
one thing and another to fix up win, But
no. she would not come. W. set forth in
glowing terms the splendid time we would
have, mentioning this and that friend who
would be present, and did all We could to
coax her to get ready. Her eyes filed with
.ears, and to hide them she picked up her
baby, who was playing a, her feet, and be.
gan to caress him, "Never mind Ulie,n
said she, turning to ns with a smile, papa
may be president of the United States one
Of these days. aud then we will have plenty
Of dresses" Nothing seemed more unlikely
then and yet it has all come to pass, aud if
| should live to be old enough to forget
everything else almost l shall always re.
member, l am sure, how Julia Gran, looked
when she uttered that speech. Like a
vision came to my mind, while listening,
.ome Of the magnificent C ~tumes l had
seen Mrs. Grant wear from time to time,
and one in particular, a blue silk velvet
trimmed with silver fox fur, a magnificent
creation. Now the picture came before nv
minds eye together with tn 1t of the owner
of this regal robe when she felt herself at
fault for the want of a suitable one to 20 to
9 small hop at the officers quarters. 1 W
| felt q curiosity to know how she had
stood the test of prosperity, 90 [ asked was
she friendly to old friends?
Eyes" said my informant, "she was al
ways one of the sweetest-tempered, sincere,
single-minded girls among US, and now, for
all the difference that has grown up be.
tween herself and some of US, it really does
not make a particle Of difference in her.
She never comes here without hunting US
all up, and for any change in her manner
towar us she is just about the same a. she
vas long & when We all played together
- girls. She is not one of the changeable
.ort; in fact, she never was. When Capt.
Grant vas poor, the poorest day he ever
saw. she seemed just as proud of him, just
"a admiring - she does to-day. What
would spoil another woman doesn't change
ner one bit. She will come back at er
visiting the high migh,iness' around the
world precisely as she ven. away and quite
IS ready to fall back into the old groove a.
