an hour later 1t is rarely the case
that some one is not invited to JOIN
in this meal, in a wholly informal
manner-a cabinet officer with whom
the President may thus continue con-
ference, or some friend who is asked
to extend his stay over the hour for
lunch.
In the afternoon, for an hour or
Whereabouts, Mrs. Harrison receives
friends, who come by appointment
and who usually have some relative
or visitor to present. Later in the
afternoon Mrs. Harrison usually
takes a drive, often with the Presi-
dent, and when not accompanying
him she takes Mrs. Mckee and the
babies, or some friend who may be in
the house. The variations from this
programme will include lessons in
china painting, in which art Mrs.
Harrison displays rare talent and
skill.
Dinner is served at $50 O'Clock,
and as was the case at lunch almost
always the family is Joined by some
friend President and Mrs. Harrison
are plain livers, preferring the dishes
of an old Kentucky "aunty" to the
more elaborate menu arranged by a
French chef
In the evenings out of the season"
the White House is q very quiet place.
President Harrison rarely has an OPP
portunity of spending any time with
his family, except at meals. and after
dinner he is usually to be found at
his desk again. If Mrs. Harrison is
free from any social duty, she utilizes
the evening hours by reading. Being
fond ola good theatrical or operate
performance, she occasionally graces
one of the theatres with her presence,
accompanied by two or three friends.
The President has little taste for
this class of amusement, especially
opera, so is seldom seen at these
places. He is fond of meeting friends
in quiet way, and when Mrs. Har
rison is entertaining callers i'll the
evening, he comes down from his
room whenever business permits him
to do so, and mingles with them in
delightfully."- informal way.

MRS. HARRIsON's DAILY LIFE.

INKS HA RRISON'S DA lily LIFE.
The routine of the day begins early
at the executive mansion, says A ].
Hallord, in an interesting article on
Mrs HarrisOn's Life in the White
House. in the March Ladies' Home
Journal. Breakfasts served prompt
" at half past s o'clock, in the family
dining room on the north side of the
house, adjoining the conservatory.
This is followed by prayers, either
the President or Or. Scott conducting
devOtions. The family then separa te
for the day; the President proceed
ing directly to his room Mrs Har-
risOn and the ladies retire to the ''liv-
ing room of the house, which is not
Il room at all. 1t is the north end of
the main hall, on the second floor,
separated from the office or public
portion of the floor by n rather Sc
we're, not to say forbidding black
walnut partition, half the height of
her mail, which is attended to with
promptnesS and regularity. SO far
as the work of answering letters can
be delegated. it is given over to Mrs.
Sanger, the stenographer. But a
large portion of her mail Mrs Harri-
son answers herself. Many of the
letters can be answered by means of
a form that has been composed for
the purpose.
The consideration of her mail over,
Mrs. Harrison receives the superin-
tendent of public buildings and
grounds, at present Col. Oswald Nj
Ernst of the engineer corps, who is
charged with the duty of disbursing
the appropriation made for the main
tenancc of the executive mansion.
With him Mrs. Harrison discusses
! theneeds Ofthe house and her desires,
which must be made to conform to
| the amount of funds on hand MANY
| and long are these conferences, and
OftentimcS they result in Il shifting
about and repairing of the furniture
and fixtures that would astonish
some persons who imagine that the
life of the lady of the White House IS
without care and a continual state
! of bliss
After having dismissed Col Ernst,
she devotes herself to the domestic
| branch of the establishment in con
ference with the housekeeper The
menu for the day is arranged during
this conference, and in consultation
| with the steward Mrs Harrison
maintains an intelligent supervision
/ over the kitchen, but the stories cur
rent in some circles. representing her
as devoting much of her time to ac-
tual participation in the work of the
department, are exaggerations. Al
| though good cook, she does not
| find it necessary or desirable to usurp
| the functions of that individual in
! the White House. And so as to the
marketing Having arranged III a
general way for the provisions of the
day, it is left to the proper person to
| see that it is procured Lunch is
served at 1 80. but frequently the

seekers, or cabinet meetings, and he

But the work of her life, and that
which portrayed her real intellectual
qualities. was her History of Yer
mont" Since her arrival in Chicago
shehad published a fifth volume, and
at her death was engaged on the
sixth and last volume of the work
\ few weeks ago she said she would
have it completed before the year
was out, and then she would rest
and enjoy the fruits of her toll for a
quarter of Il century. The Leg1sla-
ture of Vermont, it seems, has been
paying her something for the vol
umes already completed, and when
the history was finished she expected
Il remunerative sum from the state
which would enrich her and enable
her to spend her declining days III
peace and rest.
The extraordinary feature in Miss
Hemcnway's character was the man
ner i'll which she toiled and struggled
to complete her history In the sec
ond story of the little cottage she
had two small rooms The front one,
being the brightest, she fixed up as q
printers composing-room, and there
she daily worked at the case putting
into type the sentences of her history
which she had written during the
night, and she not only set up her
own copy but she got it into forms"
ready for the printer whom she had
employed downtown. In this man
ner she was gradually completing
her work and daily adding to the
pages for the binder.
Miss Hcmcnway lived almost as
an ascetic, although she was in no
want She had no thought but
about her sixth and last volume.
When she left her tiny printing office
to get milk or bread she noticed none
of her neighbors and seemed to be
etcrnally thinking and wrapped up
in her own thoughts.
Upto her last moments, it appears,
Miss Hcmcnway stuck to her type
setting on her history. She had but
few acquaintance and only visited
the homes of MIR. and Mrs. Henry
Pitcher, No. 33, and Mr. and Mrs.
Smith, No 81 Ncwberry avenue
Sunday last she dined with Mrs.
Smith Tuesday evening she was
found dead i'll her room, the cause be
ing apoplexy. Yesterday her broth
cr, Horace {. Hemenway Of Kansas
City, took charge of the body and
had it shipped to Ludlow, Vt
Among Miss Hemenway's effects
were Il rare collection of articles of
jewelry, most of them being of a de
scription that would entitle them to
the admiration of an antiquarian.
There was also found in her jewel
box a certificate for 225 shares III the
American Electrical AnnunciatOr
company, dated New York, July 10,
1865, and signed Joseph T. Sanger,
President, and John Compton, Secre-
tarv She also left certificate of
shares in the Illinois Building and

PECULIAR INFATUATION.

Different Methods Of Following the In
junction Love One Another"
Do men ever fall in love with each
other?
Women do. Not long ago young
woman in New Jersey was married to a
youthful laborer on her fathers farm.
Sometime afterward it was discovered
that the husband was female the young
wife refused, however, though earnest
" entreated by her frie ends, to give up
her chosen consolt. The strangest part
of the discovery was the fact that the
bride knew her husband was woman
before she was led to the altar.
If men do not exhibit this strange
infatuation for one Of their own sex
they at least oftentimes give evidence
of the fact that they love one another.
There are many instances on record
where one man has given his life for
another. There are many more in
stances where men have given life TO
another.
1t is proud possession-the knowl-
edge that one has saved a precious
human life. Meriden, Conn, is the
home Of such happy man. John II.
