 The words army and navy are an open sesame to the best clements of 70. eial life everywhere in our country, and among the leaders of Washington SO eisty ere found many whose husbands are in one or the other. Washington is the natural rallying-point of the army, and even after the active protea- sionel life ia ended they find there the pleasantest resting-place. Mrs Grant, Mrs. Sheridan and Mrs. Logan hava chosen their homes there, and hold sway over large circle of friends. The widows of other prominent officers drift to Washington from time to time, and in the inner circle of Washington's pleasantest social life Admiral pewey has found in Gen. Hazen's widow gra- eious woman to hold sway over him. self and his home. At the last New Years reception Mrs, Custer, known for her charming personality, as we'll as because of her gallant husbands fame, stood beside Mrs. Miles and re- esivsd with her during the afternoon. -Asry Breekinridge Hines,

The shah of Persia. having been tosr years on the throne, wishes to see the world, and has planned . long journey. He will visit St. Petersburg. Berlin, Vi- enna, Paris, London and Constantino- pie, and will be entertained at all the courts. It will be costly journey, and the shah is not reputed to be rich; but his credit is good, especially in St. Petersburg, where the treasury is al- ways ready to make advances to the ruler of . vassal state whose territory Russia covets, says Youths Companion
 MuzaffaT-eddin, the shah. is nearly 30 years old. He looks younger than he is, for there are no traces of gray in his jet-blaek hair and long, dropping mustaehe, and there are no lines on his narrow forehead. His eyes are soft and dreamy, the contour Of bis face is regular and hia smile is - e sn in- dOlent and weak man who can bs easily amused.
 He is ruler without strength os character, who is believed to have ss. cured the throne through Russian sup port when his older brother had c clearer right to it. and would have re- sisted foreign influence more strenu- ously. He is pleasEe-loving aover- eign who likes 10 go about svsrythins in the easiest wsy.
 Great results may follow the shsh's circuit of European travel. An empire larger than France and Germany to- gether may be opened to European commerce and American railway build ing; and Russis may find herself on the Pergien gulf and on the frontier of h. dis, while Engiishmen are asking whether Lord Salisbury was really dreaming when he declared that there wss "room enough for aN in Asia"
