SOCIAL AND PERSONAL
GOSSIP OF WASHINGTON

Washington, d. c., Oct. 23.-Improve-
ments on the White House are pro-
crossing so slowly that it is more than
probable the usual official receptions
will have to be omitted this year. A
schedule for the four evening levees
and three state dinners will be made
out in November, according to time
honored custom, but there have been
so many delays in the work of repair
ing the executive mansion, that it is
doubtful if the East Room and Red and
Blue parlors can be completed much
before spring. This is a great disap-
pointment to those who have planned
for a gay Washington winter, and es-
pecially to ladies of official circles who
have prepared costly toilettes for the
several occasions when they are ex-
pected to be ION show"
The fact is. social indications point
to a rather disappointing winter, any
way, at least until after Lent. With
Mrs. Roosevelt at oyster Bay and Mrs.
Shaw and Mrs. Payne in the Far West.
there are only two matrons of the adj
ministration circle now in Washington
Mrs. Knox and Mrs. Hitchcock. Mrs.
Shaw is en- route to the Pacific coast
to welcome her only son, Mr.. Earl
Shaw, on his return from six months
or so in Alaska. Postmaster General
and Mrs. Payne are visiting in Mil
waukee, their former home. There are
also a conspicuous number of absentees
in the diplomatic circle, although all
the embassies and legations have been
formally returned to Washington for
the winter. The British ambassador
and Lady Herbert, who will undoubt-
eddy be the leaders of the foreign con-
tingent, although the latest corners OF
their rank, will occupy a suite of rooms
at the New Willard Hotel for sew
eral weeks to come, the embassy being
far from completed. The Austrian min
lister and Baroness Hongelmiller, who
are the most popular diplomats in

Gated the last eight years, will return

TEACHERS jealousy was aroused and
he was ready for a quarrel.
When once a young man lets his best
girl understand that he is jealous of
her she feels il her bounden duty to
make him as uncomfortable as she can

mill man with his golden whiskers, but
when he heard that the two sang
hymns and played checkers together
in addition to gathering harvest apples
and reading Shakespeare on the front
veranda after dinner. the green-eyed
monster demanded a row.
One was forthcoming. One evening
the clerk drove up to farmer Davis
with his jaw "sot." and five minutes
later he was saying to the girl of his
heart:
False creature, how dare you look
into my eyes after the way you have
carried on with that yallar-whiskered

You want to marry him!"
From thence on it was easy for the
young man. All he had to do was to
call Minnie a heartless girl, a f1irt and
a coquette, and add that he was glad
he had found her out before Ii was too
late Her feelings were hurt, her indig-
nation aroused, and she suggested that
he had better look around and find
some one to suit him better. OF course
he drove away with flaming face and
surging heart, and of course 1t wasn't
a week before everybody heard of the
row and had something to say about
il.
When he had fulfilled his mission,
which was to put up the best windmills
on earth and tell every farmers daugh-
ter that she was the sweetest and
handsomest girl in the country, the
windmill man took his pay and drove
on, and his golden whiskers were hard

was not only surprised, but Modified.
He was not only Modified, but found
himself wondering If he couldn't make
it up with the girl and be restored TO

didn't appreciate a good thing until
he had lost it.
The more Burt thought of those
whiskers the more he was inclined to
believe that the color was golden in
