"Fosslbly nothing" said a gentleman who
has long been regarded as something of an
arbiter in social questions, ''more decisvely

ability in ordering dinner, and draws atten-
tion to the manner in which he eats it, has.

OF character. If he is a gentleman and has
always eaten well ever since he was born, he
will be aware that what he personally prefers
is Of no more consequence in the real art of
cooking than what his neighbor relshes, and
that eating is not an exhibition but gratifica-

content to allow these commonplaces to pass,
but must impress upon people about him that
he is deeply affected by the vulgaiity of them.
When it comes to the proper use of wines he
is insufferable. The mention of brand that
is well known makes him shudder. He

makes every one about him feel very ignorant.
After dining with such man one rises feel

pended to be absolutely correct.

Mr.. Eustis's Imported StabIeman.
Assistant Secretary Nettleton has decided
that Francis j. Hewlett, who came to this
country from England under an agreement
made last winter in Paris, France, with Mr..
G. W. Eustis, of Washington, ID. c., to serve
as head stableman and coachman for him at a
salary of 500 month, is debarred from land
ing under the provisions of the Alien Contract
Labor law. The question arose as to whether
this case did not come under the provisions
OF section Of that act, which admits persons
employed strictly as personal or domestic
servants Mr.. Nettleton says that the Depart
ment has held uniformly that this proyiso ap-
plies only in cases where such servants come
into this country aVith their employers, and
that it is question whether head stable
man or coachman can be considered as
strictly personal or domestic servant. Steps
will at once be taken to secure Howlett's re-
turn. He is now at liberty under bond.

OF benefit and endowment and improve

operative associations, etc., etc., there is no
lack in Washington, but in addition to these
institutions, valuable as they are, there has
long been felt growing need for a savings
bank with such modern methods as are
adopted in other cities.
The guarantee fund is ample, the officers
and directors are men of character and stand
ing, and all legitimate efforts will be made to
render this bank a conservative guardian OF
the best interests OF it's depositors.
This bank pays per cent. interest on de-
posits.
5 CENTS A DAY saved by child until
he is twenty-one years old will make about
$1,000, enough to buy home. The actual
saving has only been about $400, but this has
earned about 5000.
25 CENTS A DAY will equal homes for
five children, or about $1,000.
S1.O0 A DAY for the same time will equal
about SOC, 600, which is more than 9S out of
100 persons ever own at one time. Forty
years of age is not too late to begin to save
