Oregon. She has very dark hair and eyes
and handsome, clear cut features. She
looks like a high born Spanish dame, but
is, l believe, purely American. Her spon-
sors, fortunately, selected just the right
name, Augusta, for her. She dresses
elegantly and with great taste, and is a
charming hostess. Her drawing room, any
Thursday during the season, will be found
crowded with the best people in town.
Quite the ball of the season was the one
she gave to introduce her oldest daughter.
Beside the "bud" the mother looked like
a rose which had only bloomed a little
earlier upon the same stem. Agnes Dolph
was not out very long before she married
Mr.. Richard Nixon, a bright young news
paper man. Her wedding, like her com
ing out party, was n of the most bril-
liant events of the season. That was five
years ago, but she looks scarcely a day
older. She is not very strong, and makes
me think of a tall, white lily, with her
iowerlike face, big, dark eyes, and the
pretty way she has of holding her head.
She is a heroine, too, for I heard her say
one day to some one who askedher how she
kept her pretty complexion and bright ex-
preston when she was sick so much. that
she had read somewhere, "That NJ matter
now much o woman suffered she should
never make up faces and get wrinkles, but
bear pain without grinning," and that she
had always tried to remember it. An aw-
fully good motto for other fair womepsto

The pretty wife of the handsome Hoosier
congressman, Benjamin F. Shively, was
Laura Emma jerks, daughter of Hon.
George A. jerks, of Pennsylvania, solicitor
general under Cleveland. Miss jerks
made her debut under very pleasant cir
cumstances, being a special favorite of the
beautiful mistress of the White House.
She is Of medium height, with slight fig
ure, clear, pale complexion, dark brown
eyes and abundant dark brown hair which
curls about her forehead. She has been
married about three years, and is one of
the most popular young matrons in con
g%ressional circles.
Another charming brunette is the wife
Of Hon. Joseph e. Washington, Of Tennes-
see, who was Mary Boiling Kemp, daugh-

manner, and has been IA great social favor
tie ever since she went to Washington
about five years ago. Like most Virginia
women, she talks easily and we'll.
A dozen years ago Senator Mitchell's old
est daughter, Maggie, threw aside her
schoolbooks to marry Mr.. w. T. Handy, a
youthful member of an old Washington
family, and become a devoted wife and
mother, instead of a famou belle like her
sister Matte, now Ia Duchesse de la Roche
f%oucauld, whom she much resembles,
though she is somewhat stouter and has
darker hair and eyes and more color. She
is bright and animated, talks well and isa
great favorite in society. On her day at
home her pretty parlor is always full of
people, who are awfully tempted to tear up
their lists of unpaid calls and remain to
enjoy the witty things they are sure to
hear.
AS Mrs. Armstrong Mrs. Noah L. Jeffries
was admired and General J~effries was
greatly envied when he bore the fair. widow
off from all competitors, three or four
years ago. She is of good height and has
a fine figure, dark auburn hair and eyes of
the same color. There are pretty little
dimples at the corners of her mouth when
she speaks or smiles. She is accomplished
and charming in conversation and enter
tains delightfully."- in her handsome home,
which she planned with artistic taste. She
introduced a lovely daughter during the
season, and had also a pleasant assistant
in her aunt, Mrs. Helen Mather, author of
that delightful book Zone Summer in
Hawaii"
Mrs. Anita Newcomb MCGEE, wife of
Professor W. j. MCGEE, of the Geological
survey, and daughter of Professor Simon
Newcomb, the eminent scientist, is a very
well favored young woman with dark hair
and eyes and mobile face. She is as clever
as she is pretty, and has written a good
deal on scientific subjects and read Il num-
Der of brilliant papers before learned so
cieties. She enjoys society when she has
time for it, but has lately given up nearly
everything else for the study of medicine,
and will soon graduate as a regular M. D.
She ought to make a good one. being per-
sonally so pleasing, and will certainly
make a brainy one.
One of five very comely sisters is Mrs.
Annie Baden Low, the wife of Mr.. A. Maui

worth, and herself a writer in years past
of pleasing sketches. Even as a very young
girl Annie Baden was q beauty and u belle,
with her lovely dark eyes and hair and the
wild rose color in her cheeks. She is slight
and not very tall, and has pleasing man
ners, which win her many friends. She
has two pretty little boys, but as they
have a devoted grandmamma and two
young aunts, Mrs. Low is able to go about
a great deal with her husband and have a
nice time.
Some of the handsomest women in Wash
ington, l think, are those with gray hair,
especially when it is premature, as it so
often is. One of these women, and for
seven or eight reasons one of the most
popular, is Mrs. Cultivate, wife of Mr..
Joseph Fl. Cultivate, representative from
Ohio. The soft rings of gray hair above
the expressive dark eyes, the winning
smile and sweet manner make her a lovely
and very attractive woman. Mrs. Outh-
waite was born in Ohio. Her father,
jeremiah d. Peabody, a banker. was Il
brother of George Peabody, the distin-
guished ph%ilanthropist.
Another beautiful gray haired woman is
Mrs. Hit, wife Of Representative R. X.
Hit, of Illinois, who has a clear cut face,
fine dark eyes and dark, beautifully arched
brows. She has travelled a great deal; is
an accomplished and brilliant woman and
a very charming talker.
Still another is Mrs. Rebekah Black
Hornsby, who made her debut in Washing
ton society when her father, Hon. Jere S.
Black, was secretary of state toward the
close of the Buchanan administration. She
was a great f~avorite of Miss Harriet Lanes,
and the two ladies are still firm friends.
Mrs. Hornsby has a neat, trim figure, good
features, curly gray hair and very engaging
manners. She is as bright and witty as
she is we'll favored in looks, has read and
travelled much, moved in the best society
of this and other cities, and talks well.
She has a ready pen, too, and writes as

Landing.

& Now is about the time of year when
the annual wall regarding ''unowned"
lambs commences, and l wish to say to
any of your readers who may have
wrongminded sheep that disown their
offspring that there is a sure cure for it
and not patented.
The cure is to feed the eve plenty of
good hay and grain for at least two
months before she lambs.
If a eve has fat on her ribs and udders
full of milk she will own her lambs nine
LYNNE times out of a hundred, and this
remark will hold good oven with young
Merinos coming with lamb for the first
time.
Where many lambs come in the same
pen at the same time, young ewes fire.
quently get confused and lose their
lambs, but when a system of marking
each lamb at birth and it's mother with
the am mark is used, and a few stalls
are fitted up for hay, grain and water,
where the eve and lamb a be confined
apart from the others, this difficulty
will be overcome.
When a W 6sowns her lamb it is in
most every case because she has very
little milk. and nature teaches her to
look out for number one.
Many people do not realize when q
sheep is thin in the winter or spring,
simply because Of the heavy covering of
wool that covers up sharp angles to
some degree, and think it doesn't need
much care and feed, but can get the prin-
cipal part Of its living as a sort of all
around scavenger; but the fact is that
no animal will so quickly and surely
repay the thoughtful owner in cash for
his careful attention and liberal allow
ance of the best water, hay and grain,
and no animal will be a poorer invest
ment than a half starved sheep.
l, for one, never had any trouble in
Landing because my ewes were too fat.
l once had the misfortune to fatten
for mutton fifty old Merino ewes that
had all taken the ram, although un-
known to me. raised f%orty-nine lambs,
and the yves were about as fat as corn
and alfalfa hay could make them at the
time they dropped, and l kept them so
until green grass came, the lambs grow
ing meantime full as fast as they would
have done upon grass.
Nature very seldom makes q mistake,
and q strong, healthy, fat eve will guard
her lamb as carefully a. a mother will
her child. II a man can't afford to feed
two sheep we'll, let him keep but one

POULTRY AND GARDENING,

The Two Fit Together Like Roast Lamb
@& and Mint Sauce.
Along with the poultry raising every
one should run a garden, for two rea-
IONS: First, nearly half of the feed for
the chickens in summer comes from the
garden; and second, the poultry n
ought to be sufficient fertilizer for such
a garden on ordinary soil. These are
two items generally overlooked in poul-
try raising. It is cheaper to raise the
food in your own garden than to buy it,
and over and above all Of this you will
have nearly enough to supply your own
table with fresh vegetables all through
the whole summer The poultry needs
green leaves, green food, roots, berries
and seeds, and a great amount of all of
these a be gathered for them in the
garden. Where poultry is not kept
there is a great deal of waste in the gar
den, for the green tops of vegetables,
half grown roots and pods are always
useless for the table. The time spent in
c%ultivating the garden might legiti-
mately be put down as conscientious
work for the poultry. At the end of the
year there would be so much saving in
the cost of food.
Then the outlay for the garden would
simply be for seeds, tools, labor and in
terest on the land. The poultry manure
we are going to make supply all the fer
tilizing material for the soil. The poultry
droppings should be gathered at least
weekly from the hen roost or the yard
and sprinkled owe with fine dust. The
best plan ia to take every barrel of this
mixture and dump it into a quantity of
muck gathered from some pond heal by.
Nil the two up thoroughly, and a good
fertilizer is prepared both for spreading
over the ground and for dropping in the
hills and rows. The poultry manure fur
nishes plenty of mineral and heating
elements, while the muck is rich in nj
trogenous material, decayed roots and
plants. The danger in using poultry ma
nure in the drills and hills is that too
much will be put in, so that the seeds
will be burned up, but when it is thor
oughly mixed with muck this danger is
partly removed.
After the garden crops have all been
gathered in the autumn the, chickens
should be turned into it for a range. They
will dig down into the soft, mellow
ground and root out all the worms and
grubs that may be preparing for a win
ter's Information. They will also snatch
up the seeds of weeds and foreign bodies
and prepare the ground for use the next
spring. These items are seldom taken
into consideration by those writing about
poultry, but in the long run they furnish
no very small profits. Annie G. Web
