There is one story that George
Washington watched the building
OF Wheat Row and Laws Mansion
with great interest. Work on the
two operations began a few months
after the cornerstone of the old
United States Capitol was laid.
One of Laws claims to fame was
that he married the daughter of
Martha Washington.
After his plunge in southwest
Washington real estate, Greenleaf
was in demand as a builder in
other communities and some of
his buildings stood here for a hun.

promptu saltwater bath.
Later George told me he hadn't felt the
cold water and didn't realize he was wet
until we were safely aboard the Barren
drecht. Only then did he discover that
his clothes were drenched.
We almost fell asleep at the table after
having had our tea. The reaction from
the long hours Of wakefulness, from the
strain Of battling the storm, was beginning
to set in.
The next day the captain laughingly
told US that had said family, TIM so

"I'll bet you are"
Captain Coos took George to his cabin
to give him some dry clothing. When
they reappeared had the first real laugh
in many hours. Captain Coos is a large,
broad-shouldered man. You can imagine
the picture George made in his clothes.

 On the way upstairs Lily made up her mind that she did not feel like going to the Roy Jettersons house that night after all.
 T think I'll stay right here and rest" she told Florence, flinging herself down on the bed and folding both the pillows under her head. I've had a pretty strenuous day, and I'm more tired than l thought was" She yawned.
 Pats sister swung around from ing her hair with an electric iron. You'd better go for a little while, don't you think?'' she asked. "Sadys probably been working hard all day to get ready for this party. And it's in your honor-Pat's and yours. Sadye will be hurt if you don't go."
 Pat can go," Lily answered, carelessly. T don't know as I care to meet his old sweetie, anyway. l think that Jefferson woman had her nerve to invite her"
 "Oh, I'm sure she would have more sense than to come" Florence said, rubbing a piece of black satin over her hair to give it gloss.
 Well, I'm too tired to go, any way" Lily decided again. And when you see Sadye tonight tell her that my friend, Sue Cain, is going to come to my wedding tomorrow. Pat said that the Jettersons would stand up with us, and If he wants Roy it's all right-but ] don't need her I have Sue, instead"
 Presently Pat came upstairs and pleaded with her to go to Sadye JetterSon's house. but Lily was stub porn. "1'm dead tired, Pat" she said. And besides, I just hate that Jefferson woman. There's no use in my trying to hide 1t. l don't want to go to her house, and I'm not going to-"
 That was the end of it. When Lily did not want to do thing, she simply did not do 1t! The next day Roy Jefferson came to the wedding without his wife. T suppose she's peeved," Lily said to herself, and did not care. After their ceremony Roy shook { Pats hand heartily, gave Lily q sound kiss upon her lovely mouth which shocked Pats mother-and went home. Sue Cain alone stayed with the family for the simple we'd ding feast of chicken salad, rolls and ice cream and cake.
 By six o'clock everything in the little house had settled down into its regular routine.
 Its all over and we're married. It doesn't seem as If it can be true v Lily said to Pat, twisting the plain gold band on her left hand.
 Their wedding trip was a journey to the movie theater around the cor ner, and Lily told herself that she preferred it to the European trip that Staley Drummond had promised her for a honeymoon. She was breathlessly. gloriously happy.

 Lily never had felt so close to him as she did at this moment. For years she had seldom thought of him except as the person who paid the bills for her clothes and good times.
 He was not a talkative person at any time, and of late years he had moved through her life like an actor with q small part in play of which she was the star.
 But now he was her father again

 She clung to him. You make Mother send me my clothes" she told him. I've got to have my clothes" You tell Agnes to pack them up and sneak them out of the house first time Mother is away from home"
 Instead of answering, he put his hand into his hip pocket and took out a billfold. In it was a check made out to her-a check for two hundred dollars. T brought this along, just in case things turned out the way they have" he said, as he held her tight and kissed her good bye. His eyes were filled with tears, but Lily did not see them.

BEAUTY How and Why
CLEANLINESS IS TIE BASIS OF IT ALL
 (By Ann AlySiS)

Judging by the immense sums spent year in year out on beautifiers of all kinds and descriptions, there is one great, personal question al ways before the American people, men and women:
 How to improve personal appear ance, to approach as nearly as possi- ble the standards of beauty accept ed by the civilized world.
 This is not to be considered vani- ty. Far from it. Cleanliness and good health form the basis of our ideas of beauty of body, so the more we know of these subjects, the better we shall understand the secret of true beauty.
 How it Began When the world was young and the human race appeared upon it. the Lady of the Caves saw herself mirrorcd in the clear pool where she had come to bathc. She dis covered herself refreshed, revived and beautiiied. her skin satiny and tingling, her hair in ringlets. And To, from that moment the quest for beauty was on. Coincident with the ladys discovery of her improved ap- pearance came her recognition of the great universal beautitier, water.
 That discovery has spelled prog ress for the world, Today, though hundreds of creams, powders, To- lions and hair preparations are used, water is still the universal medium through which beauty may be ob- tained For no one will dispute the fact that the foundation of all beau ty is simple cleanliness. Scrupulous and immaculate cleanliness and daintiness are the first steps toward the ultimate goal of loveliness. The One Essential Clothes, decoration and adorn- ment may follow later, but as the first step in our quest, the bath in water, by which all impurities are removed from the body is essential Famous beauties have at times used other cleansing mediums than water milk, cream and even unguents. While these may have proved won derful beautifiers, the fact still re- mains, that water is the best solvent for the waste deposited on the body through it's numerous sweat and oil ducts.
 Under certain circumstances, it is necessary to use other solvents than water, as we'll as helpful toilet requisites.

Your Health How To Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FJSHBEIN Editor Journal of the Amerit an Medical Association and of Fly
 geIa, the Health Magazine

Although it was proved many years ago that tuberculosis IS caused by specific germ, the disease has not yet been eliminated as one of the major causes of death of man.
 Specific methods of treatment attacking the germ have not been satisfactorily established. nor has any drug been shown to have spe- cial virtues in overcoming the dis ease
 Primary among methods of treatment are the provision of ade- quated nutrition, proper amounts of rest and exercise, and exposure to fresh air and sunlight. Special at tention always has been given to the question of providing adequate food Apparently this well grounded meth cd of treatment is now supported by scientific evidence of great interest
 Laboratory Study
 Workers in the department of biochemistry and bacterioogy of the University of Cincinnati have just made public the results of some Investigations on rats which are of great importance in this connection.
 The white rat has long been thought to be almost immune to tuberculosis. Several experiment. CTS who have studied the affects of the injection of germs into rats were convinced that it was of a.l animals least susceptible 10 this disease.
 The Cincinnati Investigators, noting that the rat is susceptible to deficiencies of vitamins. deter mined to lind out whether the nat urally high resistance could be low cred by decreasin the amount of calcium and vitamin D in the rats diet.
 They found that rats from nor nal mothers receiving an abund- ance of both calcium and cod liver oil were immune to fairly large doses of tubercle germs, whereas those with a diet deficient in cal cium and vitamin D developed un- mistakable lesions of tuberculosis in the lungs following the injec- ton of comparatively small amounts of tubercle bacilli.

Military Camps Are
Closing Hundreds
Ready for New War

PINE CAMP, N. Y, Aug. 30.-The
reserve officers training camp has
already closed for the season and the
citizens military training camp will

away. French 75-millimeter guns
were used throughout the reserve
work.
