TWO EXPERIENCES AT THE CAPITAL. A Young Woman Who Came to Fay an Extended Visit to nn Entire Stranger. "We bad some remarkable experiences in Wellington,'' said a lady whose hus band had, through two administrations, held a high office in the government "Insane claimants come to Washing ton by the hundred with preposterous demands of every kind. Of course at the departments and in their houses the president and his cabinet are guarded as far as may be from these intruders, but they sometimes gain access to the peo ple they desire to see, and give a great deal of trouble. "Owing probably to my name having been more or less in the newspapers, I had not a littlo annoyance from these people myself, and women as well as men used to deluge me with the most absurd applications. One very funny incident, which, however, was most an noying at the time, occurred after we had been in Washington only a short time, and before 1 had warned my serv ants against these eccentric gentry. We had had a big dinner, and I was alone in the drawing room about 11 o'clock, just after our guests had departed. I heard a little bustle in tho hall, but fan cying that it was somo one going away did not disturb myself about it. "Presently the door opened, and the footman announced, 'Miss Clark.' And, quite as if she were an expected guest, in walked a very ladylike looking wom an, who calmly informed m« that she had a claim against the treasury depart ment for a million dollars, and that she had come to stay with me until sho had arranged matters satisfactorily. T have brought my trunk,'she explained very composedly, 'as 1 suppose I may have to stop with you for some time.' And to my consternatisn 1 found that the cab man (for she had arrived in a carriage) had brought her box into the hall, and that she had paid and dismissed him. Her whole demeanor was so quiet and assured that tho servant who opened the door never dreamed but that she was expected. "To have a crazy woman in your house at midnight is not a pleasant po sition 1 assure you. 1 felt that she must be humored, and making some excuse, hastily sought my husband and ac quainted him with the situation. For tunately Dr. , our good neighbor, lived within a few doors, and writing him a lino to ask his advice and assist ance, we entertained our strange visitor until he arrived with a carriage to take the poor lady to a safe shelter for the night. With great tact he persuaded her to go with him, and she took leave of us with many apologies for her short stay and abrupt departure. "My next experience was more seri ous. My daughter was to be married, and on the afternoon before the wedding I had gone up to my room for a little rest when I was disturbed by one of the servants who informed me that a gen tleman was down stairs who insisted upon seeing 'Miss Mary', (my daughter) or myself. 'Ho wouldn't give his mes sage, ma'am,' exclaimed the man, 'al though I told him that you did not wish to be disturbed.' Thinking that it might bo something of importance, I went down to the reception room, where I found a tall, very good looking man, who in an agitated manner told me that he had long loved my Mary, had seen hsr mar riage spoken of in the papers end had traveled night and day from his home in the west to be in time to prevent the sacrifice. "He insisted upon seeing my daughter at once. He was so excited that 1 was terribly frightened, but kept my pres ence of mind, and contrived to ring for tho footman. 'Show this gentleman out,' I said, and fairly flew upstairs. Some way or other they got rid of him, but that evening he returned, and again the next morning. Of course he was not admitted, but I was made so thor oughly nervous that my husband sent for a couple of policemen in citizen's clothes, who remained with the wedding party until the young couple were fairly off on the train."—New York Tribune. Why She Couldn't Isuy. "While I was doing some shopping.' says a man, "1 encountered the tyj .• woman shopper. She was with unovii woman and they reached a countc ■where some charming little teakwoot cabinets were displayed. " 'Therel' exclaimed the type entlms; astically, 'the very thing of all other* for Mrs. O. Only last week she was admiring a little one of mine and wish ing for ita fellow for her dressing table.' " 'How fortunate!' exclaimed her com panion. 'I should get it directly, and it will be off your mind.' "The other hesitated, looked at the price and commented: 'They're not at all dear, and they're certainly very pret ty and I know she wants one, but,' put ting the cabinet back, '1 feel as if 1 hadn't looked quite enough—you know I had planned to give up the rest of the afternoon to Mrs. C.'s present.'"—New York Times. Two Points to Observe in Walking. There are two vital points indispensa ble to a good walk, which, if the student will observe, he will acquire a free and elastic carriage. These two points are to let the chest lead, and to feel the balls of the feet as one walks. 1 do not say point the toes downward, for this will give a strained and mincing gait at first. But as you walk, so poise yourself that the heels touch but lightly, and, as it were, incidentally, and all the weight and strain coming on the balls. This, with a forward and erect chest, will give the main items for a good walk, and the minor points, such as controlling the hips, restraining the arms slightly, etc., may follow as incidentals.—Chi cago Woman's News. Secrets of Comfort. Though sometimes small evils, like invisible insects, inflict pain and a single hair may stop a vast machine, yet the chief secret of comfort lies in not suf fering trifles to vex one and in prudent ly cultivating an undergrowth of small pleasures, since very few great ones, alas! are let on long leases.—New York Ledger.

Tlie Average Sleeping Boom. Look into the sleeping room of the laborer, the clerk, the mechanic, where they spend from seven to nine hours of the twenty-four. O-enerally they are the smallest and most inconvenient rooms in the house; on the shady side, with one window, precluding any thor ough ventilation. Even this one win dow may be so arranged that the wind will blow directly on the sleeper's head if left open at night. Perhaps there is a small closet where, for want of other room, soiled clothing, boots, shoes and other belongings are kept. Oftentimes a row of hooks on the wall is the only apology for a closet, and the clothing hung on them adds to the general stuffi ness of the room. In this smali, ill ventilated room two grown persons sleep, with a baby or small child added — sometimes both. What wonder that the children are cross and have no appetite in the morning 7 How can the parents be fitted for their daily labor, after sleeping in such a room? The boarding houses are no bet ter, especially among the cheaper class, many sleeping rooms being hardly larger than a closet.—Good Housekeep ing. Queer Theory About Insanity. "There is something in the atmos pheric conditions that develops insanity and murderous impulses," said a student of human nature. "That is my theory. It is like the grip and other diseases that prevail at certain times and under cer tain conditions. There are all sorts of diseases and impulses in people, and it only needs the conditions to develop them. Insanity is a peculiar disease, and to a greater or less degree exists in a pretty large proportion of mankind. "In most cases it is shown in a harm less idiosyncracy and excites no more comment than mild ridicule, but in many cases it has a homicidal tendency that is suddenly and unexpectedly de veloped. Can this be through natural and general causes or is it imitation that produces these mind waves? I believe it is the former —that general causes similar to the conditions that produce the grip wave, the cholera wave, the horse dis temper wave or any other disease of a season also tend to unbalance the badly balanced mind."—New York Herald. Princes Who Cannot Borrow. In regard to the Prussian royal family there is an excellent law, which, had it existed here, would have saved us much money. No royal prince is allowed to bor row, and no one is allowed to lend money to him. If any one does lend he cannot recover. Acting on this law, Frederick the Great never repaid any Prussian who had lent him money when he was heir to the throne, for he deemed that such a person had not only violated the law, but ought to lose his money for having done an improper action. Were one of our princes to borrow money, and an application to be made to parliament to repay it, the strong probability is that the house of commons would follow the example of Frederick the Great. I would, indeed, go further. I would in flict a heavy fine on any one asking to be repaid by parliament and on any minister asking for a vote for any such purpose.—London Truth. The Antiquity of Wheat. The Chinese cultivated wheat 2,700 years before the beginning of the Chris tian era, always considering it as a gift direct from heaven. Scientific agricul turists are of the opinion that it was widely known and cultivated by prehis toric man. At the present time it is the principal bread corn of the leading Eu ropean nations, and is fast supplanting the use of maize, or Indian corn, in the American states. The Egyptians at tributed its origin to Isis, and the Greeks to Ceres. —Exchange. Clearly Defined. Teacher —Define devotion. Little Girl—Losin a spellin match when you don't need to.
