DOWNTOWN:

DOWNTOWN:
can well imagine the pleasure
one would have in decorating
this unusual room. With walls
tinted in a cool green against
which the most artistic gold side
lights made a startling contrast,
the room was impelling in it's
extreme beauty with plenty of
wall space to place large pieces
of furniture. At one end of the
room is a most graceful fireplace
in front of which there could be
placed an immense divan and
still there would be plenty of
room. The other end of the room
has a glaSsed-in partition which
closed off this room from what
once was a conservatory with
the fixtures in grape design, one
of the most beautiful lighting ef-
fectS have seen. The windows
were long reaching to the floor
and overlooked a small but beau
tifully executed garden. Off to
one side was a small room with
running water, electric refriger-
ator and lots of storage space. AS
you will see when you visit this
house, at one time this part of it
was the dining room, buffers
pantry and conservatory and it
has now been turned into living
quarters. I liked it very much,
it was original, beautiful and
reasonable. It is in the down.
town Connecticut Avenue dis
trict, within strolling distance of
most anywhere.
$500 BLOCK 3STH ST. N. w.:
Around the corner from Alban
Towers is single room in a
private home. While the room is
not so very large, it seems to
me that it would make cozy
quarters for some one. There is
no more delightful locality to
live in and it is extremely con-
venient. The busses and street
cars are just a block away. If
interested in a room, such as
described, kindly get in touch
with my office.

Housekeeping on a tiny scale
yet complete as if you were in

what is offered in this lovely
room I visited today. Furnished
in modernistic black and silver
furniture, with an electric grill,
dishes, linens and maid serv-
ice, if desired, as we'll as a ga
rage, it would be a splendid
home for two working girls;
there are facilities of all sorts
for pressing and things of that
type.
PEABODY ST. N. w.:
Now that Spring has officially
arrived ones thoughts naturally
turn to the outdoors and I know
that the room 1 inspected this
morning would be a delightful
one for the summer months. Lo-
Gated on the front of the house
with lots of windows, it was
very bright and CHEEKY, and has
as an added attraction, a pri-
vate bath. This room was taStily
furnished and the owner of the
house will also provide garage,
if necessary. For further infor-
nation, get in touch with my

ROOM AND BOARD NEAR
THE CATHEDRAL:
Yesterday morning I went in
search of rooms where you could
live just like you do at home. In
the vicinity of the Washington
Cathedral I found several at
tractive vacancies. One that I
found was in a corner house
which had wide porch where
you could spend many pleasant
hours and the room was located
on the front of the house. The
meals are prepared under spe-
cial supervision and I was told
that just as soon as weather per.
mits, the meals will be served
outside on terrace overlooking
a garden. The atmosphere of
this home is quiet and cultured
and it is my belief you will be
very satisfied here. ....

CAKES AND WINE

THE tea which was served" at
Il the famous Boston Tea Party
one December night In 1878 Is com
monty regarded as the most lmpor-
tant beverage in Revolutionary war
history. But something should be
said for the cakes and wine which
were served by Mary Lindley Muir
ray in New York one August after
noon In 1776.
Washington had Just been defeat
ed at the Battle OF Long Island and.
by mastery maneuver. had led
part OF his army safely across the
East river. General Putnam's 1000
Continentals were also retreating
but II seemed certain that Sir VII
liam Howe's quick movement would
cut them OF.
SO confident was Howe that when

suggested they stop at the home of

Mrs. Murray and her daughters
were charming. They gave Howe
and Tryon and Sir Henry Clinton
and Lord CORVALLIS a warm well
come. The wine and cakes the
women served were excellent. For
two hours the British officers lin
gered.
During those precious two hours.
Putnam and his Contlnentals were
swiftly marching. BY the time
Howe took up the pursuit again.
Putnam's 1000 were safely out OF
reach. They Joined Washington and
the next day helped him fight the
Battle OF Harlem Heights, the only
Revolutionary battle won by the
Americans in what Is now New York

SHE WROTE A BOOK

TT APPEARED first as a serial in
an unimportant newspaper in the
national Capital. She was paid
$500 for her story of some 100000
words-a little better than a hun
dredth Of a cent a word. The first
book publisher to whom she sub
mitted her novel turned 1t down.
But In March, 1852, a Boston com
pany brought 1t out In two volumes.
The first edition and then a second
were exhausted within a month.
By the end Of the year 295,000
copies had been sold. For years 1t
was an American best seller" and
established a record which no other
novel came near touching. 1t has
been translated into almost every
language on earth. The copyright
ran out long ago but 1t is still on
the lists of more than a score of
American publishers who sell about
5000 copies annually.
A play based on the book was pro
duced in the summer of 1853 and
1t ran for n years-that Is. 1t was
always being performed somewhere
during that time. 1t had the "long-
est run" in theatrical history.
Although it is now admitted that
the book was an exaggerated and
distorted picture of the conditions
which it portrayed, it helped bring
on the greatest civil war in history
which cost over S3.O00,000,000 and
took the lives Of more than 100000
men.
The book was Uncle Toms
Cabin" and the woman who wrote It
was Harriet Beecher Stowe.

 There's company. I slipped out. Judy, how could you?" he ended unevenly.
 "How could IT what?" Judy managed through 8 tightening throat.
 He took her cold hands between his.

 "You meant all you said in your letters-for me?" she asked, wide eyed, unbelieving. There was little silence, lilac scented and breathless, then he lifted her face. Here's how"
 The kiss was sudden and bewil- dering to them both, falling as 1t did on Judy's small, unattractive mouth. But it convinced her that she couldn't be so very plain-not with Bart loving her like that. Copyright, 1885, The Chicago Daily
