My conversation with the proprie tress of the “beautifying establi-b- raeni” was interrupted by a lady ot uncertain age and pimpled skin, who remarked that, having arrived at the cuncluiiun that it was a woman’s duty to make the most ot her looks, she had oomo to madams for assiotaiue. “That’s right,” said the ma-lame. cheerily. “I can make you so good looking your own husband won’t know you.” The lady’* expression grew a trifle dubious at this, but the { iroiessor began: “First, you must earn to smile frequently; I notice your thee is naturally grave. There is nothing men like eo much as a smile, especially w hen it comes from a pretty mouth, aud a mere soupeon ot my lip-dew will make yours fresh and red, and by rubbing a little extra on tile middle ot the lip you can ob tain a positively voluptuous effect.” “But my complexion?’’ Interrupted the visitor anxiously. “Oil, I can fix all that. Just let me ehow you,” and ilhe seated the lady in front ot s mirror, whipped out a piece of chamois skin, dipped it iu a creamy liquid and polished off the lady’s face, then she powdered it. well, rubbed tome rouge on the faded cheeks, tinted the lips, penciled the brows and, presto! there was auoihur woman. Ou the stage she would have looked very well, hut near the cosmetics could not conceal either themselves, the harsh outlines, the dim eyes or the lack cf youth’s roundneu. The poor CRAZY CTLl.TtttN.

Washington correspondent, lms occu pied that pot*t for several year*. He is a tall, powerful man, who haa an espe cial eye on insane callers. Very few of the insane ever get by him. The most violent lunatic that has called at the White House since Gen. Garfield’s inau guration came up to the door one morn ing iu April. He was a tall, sauare- shouldered man. He was dressed in a dark suit, and wore an apple-green tie. He rang the bell at the door with a vio lent jerk. The sergeant appeared and asked: “ What do you want f* “I would like to be shown to my room at once/’ said the man. “Butyou must be mistaken in the place. This is not a hotel" Ths caller swelled out his chest and •aid: “Take care how you talk to me. I am the real President. Garfield's name was put upon the ticket merely as a cover for mine, aa I wished to avoid the unpleasant notoriety attendant upon a canvass. I hfve come here to demand my seat, and I want you to be lively about it, too." “ But where are your papers ?" The lunatic produoed a bundle of pa pers, showing that he had been dis charged from both the regular infantry and artillery service. The man was so violent that the sergeant stepped up dose to him to be ready if he should at tempt to draw a weapon. The claimant placed a hand quickly in liis breast pocket, but. instead of drawing an ex pected revolver or knife, he brought out a huge roll of manuscript, which, un rolling as it came out, stretched from his upraised hand to his feet. “Now," said he, “I will read you a few brief points in my case.” “No, youwon't,’ r said the sergeant. “Yon want to get out of this, or I will kick you clear across the grounds.
