The Secretary OF Agriculture has a cast
iron rule that he VIII see no woman alone
IN or out OF office hours This is rule
10 which Secretary Morton adhyres with
the grmmest determination. To offend
HIM in this respect would mean to the un-
lucky person the complete overthrow of
any hoped-for favorS from him.
The messengers in the department ara
aware OF this rule and have been duly in
structed to see that the Secretary is not
annoyed by any strateErm Of the Up-tO-date
woman to cirCumvent him in his detcrmina-
ton.
II happened, however not so long ago
that one progressive woman who had been
biding her time and watching her oppor-
tunlty by slipping into the Secrrtary's S sane
tum through another room, accomplished
the great feat OF tete-a-tete interview with
Secretary Morton. Once in the room she
effectually barred his egress and proceeded
10 state her business, which, of course, was
in the nature of a hoped-for favor.
The Secretary listened, it is true, but he
was obdurate. Entreaty, Establishment,
cajolery, nothing moved him. He was
obdurate. His rule had been disobeycd,
his express commands set at naught, and
his wishes paid no heed TO. Consequently
he was in no mood TO grant even the
smallest favor. His visitor was dis
missed with scantest courtesy, as he
turned his attention wholly and exclusively
TO the inspection of papers upon the desk
before him.
She had her revenge, however. There
was decidedly enough of the old as well
as the new element of humanity in her
for that. When she got to the doorway
she stopped, and addressing the messenger
outside in tones sufficiently loud and clear
TO be perfectly heard by the object of her
sarcasm, she remarked
The Secretary need never have troubled
himself to make any such rule as he has
about not Seeing any woman alone. No
woman would ever dream of falling in
love with such q looking man as he

The Presidents of the United States since
Lincoln have been shaved daily during
their occupancy of the White House by one
and the same barber. This is coiored
man who at the present time, because of
the facts stated, enjoys the emolumcnts
of a 81 400 Clerkship in the Treasury
Department. His especial duty is the
sorting and rearranging of Revolutionary
claims. That is, for six months past the
work upon which he has been busted. He
is considered a good clerk, and writes a
good hand notwithstanding all this,
he still pursues his calling of Presidential
barber.
Every morning when the President is
in Washington he goes to the White House
carrying in a satchel all the necessary
razors, soap cups, brushes, straps, and
such things for the duty he never omits.
This duty is always finished in time for
him 10 be at his desk promptly at 8
O'Clock, and comparatively few of his
fellow clerks know of the real reason
why he never appears without that black
leather satchel.
Abraham Lincoln was the first President
TO employ him as a barber to the Executive.

been able TO get the same privilege gra =. ed
