details. Remember once the lease lie
signed your bargain is made. and the
agent or landlord is compelled to add
nothing to it,
If you have an option to renew the
lease, that should also form part of 1t.
If there are any children in the family,
or domesticated pets, it may be wise to
have the lease recognize ones rights to
house them on the premises.
When negotiating on the lease MOTH
ing should be left to the landlord or
agent. If heat is not part of the
service rendered, one may find herself
liable to a charge for the same. The
plumbing and electric wiring, of course,
should be in good order.
Assurances not backed by paper and
ink are worthless in the event of later
question. Therefore. If any details no:
properly part of the lease are in doubt
have the agent or landlord confirm his
promises or statements by letter.
Incorporate in the lease everything
YOU wish 1t to contain before signing.
Overlooking relatively small details may
ultimately cause inconvenience and ex-
penSe.

With the present vogue for fabrics

deemed worthy to consort with stones
of far higher price, and in England the
Duchess of Marlborough has set the

wearing a long chain of amethysts set
in platinum between diamonds. Ame-
thysts are sometimes set with jade, and
are sometimes worn as ornaments with
gowns of green.

Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

September 10, 1814.-Congress met in
special session today in the building
heretofore occupied by the Post Offlce
Department and the Patent Office, at
the northeast corner of Eighth and E
streets northwest. This is the only
public building in Washington which
escaped the torch of the British in
vaders, 10 occupied the city for parts
of two days after the battle of Bla-
densburg last month.
This building was saved through the
personal appeal of Dr. William Thorn
ton, the superintendent of the Patent
Office. On the afternoon of the day
after the coming of the British a tor
! nado struck the city and did much
damage, blowing off the roofs of houses
and destroying chimneys. The rain
which accompanied this windstorm put
out the fires that were burning and
saved some of the buildings from total
destruction by fire. The storm seriously
damaged the roof of the Post Office
Department Building, and 1t had to be
| repaired in hurry so that Congress
could meet there.
The room occupied by the patent
models was cleared for the use of Con-
press. The Post Office Department and
| Patent Office have moved into tenn
porary rented quarters, but the city
most office. located In the same build
| ing, will remain there during the ses-
sions of Congress.
With the return to Washington of
President Madison and members OF the
cabinet. normal business has been rap
idy resumed since the departure OF the
British. especially since it became evil
dent that the fleet which the enemy
sent up the Potomac River to Alexan-
dria had no intention OF attacking

the foot OF lofty green mountain, with
groves and jocund villages, which
studded it. as it were, with gems and
shining ornaments, and he said:
This must be the wall of the world,
for surely nothing can exist on the
other side of these hills. But I will
ascend them and look over, for I should
like to tell my friends in Bagdad what
is to be seen on the outside OF the
earth"
Accordingly he ascended the green
mountain and came to thick forest OF
trees, and came to steep moorland
part of the hill, where no living thing
could be seen, but O solitude without
limit, and the living world all glitter
ing at the foot of the mountain.
This is high place." said Haddad-
Ben-Af1ab, "but will yet go higher"
He began to climb with his hands
After an upward journey of great toll
he came to a frozen region, and the top
OF the wall of the world was still far
above him. He was, however, none
daunted by the distance, but boldly
held on In the ascent, and at last he
reached the top of the wall.
But when he got there, instead OF q
region of fog and chaos, Pc only beheld
another world much like his own, and

in loud voice:
.Will my friends in Bag4ses believe
this? But it is true, and I will tell
them"
So he hastened down the mountain
and went with all speed he could back
to Bagdad, saying, "Bagdad," and CIV
ing gold to every man he met, until he
reached the kiosk of dreams, where his
friends were smoking and looking at
the Tigris.
When the friends of Haddad-Ben-
Ahab saw him approach they respect
fully took their pipes from their mouths
and held them in their left hands while
they pressed their bosonig with their
right hands, and received him with a
solemn salaam, for he had been long
absent. They questioned him about his
adventures, and he faithfully related
seen, upon which they declared he had
made himself one Of the sages OF the
earth.
Later Haddad- Ben -Ahab fell sick and
died. Never was such a funeral seen
in all Bagdad, save that Of the Caliph
Mahoud, commonly called the Mag
nificent. Such was the admiration in
which the memory of the traveller was
held the poets made dirges for the oc-
casion ani mournful songs were heard
in the twilight from the windows OF
every harem.
Nor did the generation of the time
content itself with the ceremonies OF
lamentation. They caused fountain
to be erected, which they named the
Fountain of Haddad- -Ben-Ahab, the
traveller. When the slaves go to fetch
water they speak of the wonderful
things he did and how he was on the
top Of the world and saw outside the
earth; SO that his memory lives forever
among them as one of the greatest. the
wisest and bravest of men.

About Your Lease.

Some of the forms of leases used are
so intricate that the average housewife
renting new apartment or house does
not bother with all of the details. She
is advised to read 1t through, however,
and refer any incomprehensible parts
to some one capable OF advising her.
Affixing ones signature blindly TO a
lease may result in dissatisfaction.
Your lease should state the term OF
the lease, monthly rent, and how that
rent is payable.
If any concession has been granted
you, that concession should form part
of the lease. Vague promises which
do not materialize in the lease are
valueless.
Housewives moving into old apart
ments. or apartments or houses which
have been previously occupied, may find
that the premises require renovations,
The lease should describe in detail the
alterations which will be made.

EVERYDAY PSYCHOLOGY
By DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLs.

fiuctuating. His brain processes act
like missing cylinder. Day-dreaming
takes the place Of reason. He has no
will of his own. Almost any sugges-
ticn from another is acted upon at
once and uncritically.
Next below this state Is the subcon-
scious state. The attention Is so poorly
concentrated that person is aware OF
nothing in particular. The brain proc
esses are poorly organized, so that even
suggestion from another has a poor
chance of debating behavior. Now and
then, however, some ideas, memories
and suggestions do break through the
threshold of awareness and lead to a
sort of disconnected chain Of activities.
, There is, of course, no will or purpose
in the subconscious state. This state Is
usually sleep. Dreams hold sway, with
all their irregularity of fantastic pic
lures. Nothing but dim memories are
carried over to the waking stage, and
even then they tend to disappear when
one tries to recall them.
Then, finally there is the unconscious
stage, in which person Is as COM
pletely unaware as It is possible to be.
The depths of hysterical coma might
be taken as an example Of this highly
unconscious state.

States of Awareness.

In everyday mental life 1t Is Gus
tomary to say that person is either
asleep or awake; that he is either aware
of what is going on or that he is un-
aware.
The facts, so far as science can de-
tern1ine, are quite different. Science
recognizes neither complete awareness
nor complete unawareness. For the
sake of description, however. science
does recognize several degrees OF aware
ness.
When a person is highly conscious
Gas completely conscious as possible)
his attention is controlled. His brain
processes are unified. He goes about
his business willfully, behaving along
the line of what is commonly called
reason.
But more often his attention is di-
vided. It fiuctuates little. His brain
processes work like weak spark plugs
in an automobile He is puzzled some
what about the next link in his chain
of performance. He Is more open to
suggestions from other persons than
when he is highly conscious.
Then sometimes a person Is only
dimly conscious. His attention Is very
