There is a letter on record In which
Washington asked Mr. Fauntleroy's
permission to make a proposal OF mar
riage to his daughter in the hope Of
q revocation of a former cruel SEN
tence." But the fathers reply was
unfavorable, as usual, and Miss Betsy
afterwards married Thomas Adams OF
Williamsburg. 1t is a tradition Of
that town that after her rejected suit
or became famous and visited Will
liamsburg as the guest of the people
she watched the triumphant pageant
from a window and when the great
hero saw her he waved his sword and
saluted her, whereupon the lady faint
ed away.
On another occasion he fell in love
with Miss Mary Phillipse, the beauti-
full daughter OF wealthy Englishman
who lived in a superb mansion on the
Hudson near West Point. Washing
ton promptly proposed, but was told
that somebody elses coquette was al
ready engaged to be married. Wash
ington said afterward that he thought
things might have resulted differently
IL he had waited 'till the lady was in
the mood" There was tragic end
ing to this romance years after, when
the naughty creature who had spurned
the hand of the commander of the
American forces was arrested as an
English spy. She was thrown into
prison and all Of her property was
confiscated.
Washington was too wise to turn
into woman hater. merely because
he had been thrown down three times
In succession. He knew there were
plenty of pretty fish in the aquarium
and that 1t would be only matter of
time when he'd make good catch.
That time came just two years after
he was Tilted by Miss Phillipse, and
1t happened in this way: Col. Wash
ington was on his way to Williams
burg on official business, and while
crossing Williams ferry was accosted
by hospitable old gentleman, who

FOR THE KITCHEN
FURNISHINGS OF THIS MOST I'M.
PoRTANT APARTMENT.
Aluminium the Most satisfactory
Material for the Necessary

Preferable to Metal.

Fastidious housekeepers are bestow'
Ing quite as much attention upon the
furnishings of their kitchens as upon
any other part of the house. The mod
.ern kitchen is sanitary In every re-
spect and 1t CLEANS with white enam'
ell. porcelain fittings, glass topped ta-
bles and white sinks. But the most
attractive feature Of this realm Is the
array of kitchen utensils and recep-
tacles. These shine from being per-
fectly kept and from being made from
a material which survives the treat
ment through which such articles
must be put.
Aluminium is generally considered
the most satisfactory material for
kitchen ware. 1t costs more than the

ing row against the white walls. The
simplest and most convenient way to
arrange ones kitchen utensils is to
have fiat six inch board fastened
horizontally against the wall on three
or four sides, well filled with hooks
of various sizes and kinds. This keeps
the pots and pans out of the way but
in easy reach when needed.
The other necessaries of the kitch-
en-, jars for sugar, pots for spices and
the little odds and ends that must be
kept on hand, may be arranged in por-
celain receptacles. Germany, Eng
land and Holland are supplying us
with some fascinating jars in white
with blue or brown patterns. in Delft
blues with white trimmings--in fact,
in any of the popular colors which
one might choose for kitchen furnish
ings. These jars may be had in sizes
ranging from the tiniest little spice
pot to one large enough to hold spe-
cially sifted and selected flour.
Ordinarily these jars have covers to
match and 1t Is one Of the housewives
greatest joys to arrange the jars on
the shelves which she has put up In
the pantry. These shelves are either
enameled white or they are made of
thick plate glass with porcelain
or nickel supports. Whenever porcelain

trouble to keep clean, while, on the
other hand, the weather and the at.
mosphere as well as the cooking affect
the polish of the metal.
Some housewives like to have their
pantries and kitchens fitted with dull
green pots and jars or with terra cot
ia ones, though the majority prefer
blue and white or white with some
fresh colored pattern.

asked him to rest a while at his home
In the neighborhood. The colonel
answered that his pressing business
would not permit the time. But, as
an inducement, the old gentleman
mentioned that among the guests at
his house was the handsomest young
widow in all Virginia! That changed
matters. The young colonel smiled.
hesitated, and then-well, then he
decided that he had more time than
he had supposed!
Upon reaching the house he was in
troduced to the fascinating widow
Mrs. Martha Parke Custis, and we
can imagine the coy glances of this
enticing young creature, for 1t was a
case of love at first sight. And in.
stead Of getting away in few hours
as he had intended, U1d' Bishop, the
colonel's servant, held his horse In
readiness for hours and hours. But
his master didn't come. In fact his
delighted host had little difficulty in
persuading him to stay until the next
day.
Washington had just returned from
brilliant campaign, was gallant
young and handsome, and the clever
widow didn't lose any time bringing
down her game! A few days later Col
Washington visited Mrs. Custis at her
own beautiful home and this time he
offered his heart and sword with sue
cess. 1t Is quite evident that pro
pitious reception awaited him, for on
the way to the house he asked slave
IL Mrs. Custis was at home, and he
said, Yes, sab, l reckon you'se the
gentleman what's 'spected." They
did not meet again till their. marriage
six months later.
At that time Martha Custis was ~
years old--just three months younger
than her fiance. She was short, had
eyes that snapped. her manner was
very gay, and she was thought by
some to be the most beautiful woman
In America. She was the wealthiest
woman In the old dominion and the
mother OF four children. two OF whom
we're living. The marriage took place
at the home OF the bride In January,
1853. The exact date Is uncertain.

SEEKING
FOR LOST SON
AMOS HICKS WRITES CHIEF DA-
Wis REGARDING BOY WHO
HAS STRAYED AWAY.

Sterling Price Hicks, who in the sum-
mer of 1906 was working on a boat
in this city. is wanted by his father,
Amos M. Hicks, of Tulare Cal. He
wrote to his father in the summer of
1906 that he was working on a boat
here and boarding at 215 FOst street.
Just what kind of a game the young
man, who is 10 years of age, can have
reen working on his father, is hard to
tell. The earliest pioneer cannot re-
member when the boats came up the
waters of the classic Mill creek. Neither
is there any Fost street, nor Post street,
and at First street there was no lOdg-
ing house at the number given, at the
time the young man wrote his father.
However. the meaning may have been
twisted and at any rate the father is
anxious to hear from the lad. The
letter of inquiry written to Chief of
Police Mike Davis is from the boys
sister Mrs afaIie ki4cks Davidson,
1913 University Ave. Berkeley. Cal.
The straying lad is six feet tall, fair
aired and b!ue-eye5.
