Katie Expresses Herself fin Charac-
 teristic Style

teristic Style
 When l returned to the kitchen, found that Katie had made good her invariable phrase T feex." She was just taking from the oven a pan of my favorlte mullins, while an ome- let putfed itself appetizingly from a hot pan.
 "You shoost so on in dining room, sit down, eat dot contaloupe, und have desc tings dere in one shake of lettle lambs tall"
 The familiar but ridiculous phrase cheered my nerves as much as the toothsome dishes she had prepared tempted my appetite. found my self ravenously hungry, and paid ycoman tribute to the breakfast she had prepared. When she brought me my second cup of coffee, l de- tained her with a hand upon her sleeve.
 "This Was Very Thoughtful"
 ''This was very thoughtful of you, Katie" I said gratefully, Ito pre- pare this extra breakfast especially for me. You don't know how I have enjoyed it."
 With one of her quick movements she caught up my hand, held il against her cheek for second, then kissed it and replaced 1t gently upon her arm again. It is pretty for eign gesture, which in the first days of her service, she used to employ so often that I had to check her in Its use, and explain that in America we did not commonly employ such ges- lures. With her zeal to become a one hundred per cent Americana know no more faithful follower of the overworked slogan than is my little maid-she dropped the gesture, except in some moment of unusual affection toward me. That my en- comium had affected her Volitile spirits l understood and forbore any more praise, for fear she might burst into tears, an annoying man nerism of hers, when she is emo- tionally tense. Therefore l patted her hand casually and asked brisk ly-
 Where Is Mother Graham Katie?"
 The query steadied her, as l knew it would.
 "She go out, take keeds, so dey not disturb you. Mcssis Bickett she say you work so late und you must sleep. l no call you eef dot man nc say telegram"
 Her voice was filled with depre- eating apology and hastened 10 as sure her that she had done the right thing.

NATIONS CAPITOL HAS
! EFFICIENT CORPS GUIDES
lTracey S. McCrackenl

~
When you visit Washington, which
is something e good citizen
should try to do at least once dur
ing his life. do not be timid about
rubber-necking. Crane your neck
at tall buildings. monuments, or the
capitol dome till your hearts con-
tent-or until your neck aches. No
one pay any attention to you. Ev-
erybody does it openly in this great
mecca of tourists. And be not dis
turbed if every Washington guide
whom you meet-and there's an
army of them-picks o out as a
prospective member of his sight
seeing party.
During this writer's first few
months in Washington we were con-
stantly annoyed because these fell
lows approached us every time we
ventured outdoors. We did our best
to assume an attitude of nonchal-
ance, appearing quite as Indifferent
to the many sights as ever the
most hardened of Washingtonians.
Failing miserably in this, we
dered if u manner of dress were
not quite up to snuff and if this
enabled the guides to spot us as
recent arrivals from the open spaces.
We tried everything. but no relief
from the go-gettum guides and bar
kers. Our humiliation was COM
plete. And it continued so for six
months until we CHANGED to walk
a block or two one day with a prom
inent United States senator whose
services at the national capital dates
back many years. To our great as
constituent these guides even ac-
costed him with one of their al
Turing offers to join a sightseeing
party just ready to take in the Cap
itol, treasury and other points of in
terest. And to our greater aston
ishment he merely said: mo, my
man. l wouldn't be interested to-
day"
Time was said the senator, as
we continued on our way. when
that sort of thing offended me. as
though %suspecting I'm a stranger
here. but they take no chances.
They ask everyone"
Since then. the pangs of humilia-
ton have left us. True, the guides
are as p~estiferous as ever. but be
tween puffs of our favorite cheroot
we simply tell 'em, with the utmost
indifference, mo. my man, / would
mt be interested today"
