Passion OF Washington's Life.

Writing of Washington's great pas
sion, Sally Cary, in The Ladies' Home
Journal, Mrs. Burton Harrison says
Apparently SO riddled by the shafts
Of the little god Of love had been
the heart Of Washington, the boy, that
it is hard to know how, after his signs
for the 'Lowland Beauty (Sally Cary,
and his repeated addresses to Miss Bet
sey Fauntelroy, and his later sensibility
to the charms Of the very agreeable
young lady, afterward Mrs Amber,
the passion for woman who never
might be his could have dominated him
as it did for so many years. But from
the evidence Of his own letters the love
he had felt for the others was as water
unto wine beside the hopeless attach
ment for his beautiful neighbor, Sally
Cary, that during this period threatened
to assume sovereign controul' of his
ardent nature. Fortunately. thanks to
time. to the lady's subsequent absence
in England with her husband, and,
above all, because it was made subject
to his own indomitable will, the feel
ing was subdued, and his marriage with
Mrs. Custis ended the episode happily.
"The proofs are the enduring init
macy and confidence that existed between
Washington, his wife and every men,
Der of the Belvoir family during their
respective lives. They may be read by
any student of the writings of Washing
ton and will carry conviction in each
limo -

THE MALE COOK.
He Is Better Than a Woman Because n
Has Moro ADVANTAGES.

Has More Advantages.
A great deal has been said about the
superiority OF the male cook over the fe-
male, but whatever of superficial truth is
in such statements they lack the root of
truth.
The truth is that 1t pays q man to learn
all that Is required OF first GLASS chef
while it has never yet paid o woman, IL
we except those who, having mastered
both tho chemistry and the fine art of cook
ing, teach classes the same. And, except
through these classes or expensive and
laborious private experiment, there is no
way for woman to become skillful
cook.
In Europe man or boy who begins as
scullion may, by paying certain
amount to the cook just above him, learn
oil that he knows; then by transferring
his tribute money to his first teachers SUI
perior he advances another step, and so on
till he has spent oil his earnings, and often
more too, but has acquired in return a
liberal education, one which renders him
Independent. He is now in position to
do little work with his hands, but to di-
rect, to superintend and to draw "a salary
often larger than that of college presi-
don't The ordinary kitchen girl has no
such opportunity.
She cooks for those who know OF moth
Ing better, and she has never seen any
thing better herself. But lot her once I'M
derstand her possibilities, and of course
she must have intelligence in order to do
this, and she may add new feature to the
woman's century. philadelphia Press.
