C, MONDA Today in ‘ Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. March 10, 1791.—Maj. Pierre Charles L’Enfant, lately an office; the Engi- tiguous to this town, where the new Federal City is to be built. Maj, L'En- fant is & French gentleman, who has been employed by President Washing- ton for this purpose. He reached Georgetown yesterday, and expects to remain in this vicinity until the work is completed. Maj. L'Enfant has brought with him instructions “to confine himself to the lands within the Eastern Branch, the Potomac River, the Tiber and the road leading from Georgetown to the ferry on the Eastern Branch.” President Washington has asked him to begin at the “lower end and work upward.” The letter of instructions to him was written by Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State, at the President’s direction. “You are directed to proceed to you will find Mr. Ellicott employed in making a survey and map of the Fed- eral territory. The special object in asking your aid is to have drawings of the particular grounds most likely to be offered for the site of the Federal town Mr. Ellicott is a native of Bucks County, Pa. of English stock. His father established the flour mills about 10 miles west of Baltimore, known as Ellicott Mills. His father's family be- longed to the Society of Friends, but in the late War of Independence the principles of the mclefidld not prevent the son from giving services to the cause of his country, and he became a major in the Maryland Militia. After the war Maj. Ellicott engaged in his profession of surveyor, and was employed by the State of Virginia in tween that State and Pennsylvana, known as the Mason and Dixon line. Later he was employed by Pennsylvania to run the west and north lines of that State. e is now in his thirty-seventh year, and when he was 32 years old was elected a member of the American Philosophical Society. Two years ago he moved his residence from Baltimore to Philadelphia. Maj. L'Enfant stands high in the esteem of Gen. Washington. He is a native of Paris, where he was born in 1754. He came to this country in the Summer of 1777, several months before Gen. Lafayette arrived. He joined the Continental Army as a volunteer, and at his own expense, and was made & captain in the Corps of Engineers April 30, 1779. He was wounded in a gallant forward movement in the assault on Savannah, and was made a prisoner of the British in May, 1780, at the siege of Charleston, S. C. In November of that year he was exchanged, and he served in the American Army to the close of the war. SONNYSAYINGS BY FANNY ¥. CORY. ©Oh, Baby! Come a-runnin’!

There is no crime so black as treachery in love. The game of hearts is of necessity a gentleman’s Em, in which each player must trust to the other’s honor, and it should be played honestly and squarely with all the cards on the table. Of course, we must all recognize that our emotions are not subject to our control, We cannot love or cease to love at will. And often in our ignorance of our hearts we diagnose our symptoms incorrectly and mistake what is only a passing fancy for a deathless passion. Also we change, and without rhyme or reason lose our taste for some certain individual whom we thought we adored, so that the touch that once thrilled us leaves us cold, and we have as little appetite for the kisses that we once hungered for as we have for a second helping of a suet pudding. ery often love is not strong enough to endure the strain of a long engage- mem‘.’ r\;ery often love cannot stand the wear and tear of matrimony. Sometimes & boy Who honestly thought himself in love with & girl finds out that her only attraction for him was that of a pretty face, and that it is out of sight out of mind with him. Sometimes the girl finds out that the man she thought her Prince Charming is just a passing stranger who has none of the qualities she desires in a husband. And there are many pitiful cases where men and women mistake puppy love for the grand passion, or a physical attraction for an absorbing devotion and who marry wives and husbands who bore them to tears, with whom they have not a thought nor an idea in common, and whom they actually come to hate in the revulsion of their feelings and because they stand between them and real love. PR T}ESE are just the blunderers in love. They are not the criminals. When a girl jilts a boy, or & man breaks an engagement; when a man falls out of love with his wife, or a woman ceases to care for her husband, the aggrieved one always accuses the party of the other part of being a cheat and of having deliberately broken a trusting heart. But it is oftener the misfortune rather than the fault of these who have ceased to love, They would prefer to go on loving if they could. The real sinners in love are those who make playthi of love and, like Lady de Vere in the poem, break a country heart for plt:t’:m ere they town; who just for the kick they get out of watching a conflagral erately start fires that sear lives and leave them nothing but a heap of burnt-out ashes, There are girls who make a graft of love and whose kisses are as mercenary as those of any woman. They know that men are like sheep about following the leader and that the more popular a girl is the higher men value her. So these girls willfully encourage the attentions of men they never have the slightest intention of mlrryugs in order to get gifts from them, in order to be taken around by them, in order to make them come-ons for richer and more eligible men. ‘They are the worst sort of cheats because they feed these men, who love them with all their honest hearts and souls, on half-words and half-promises that keep their love alive. They will not let them go. They keep them hanging on with vague promises and elusive hopes until they have accomplished their purpose of snaring the men they want, and then they kick the men they have befooled out of their way as carelessly as they do the strip of carpet on which they have walked to the altar. Then_ there are the girls whose vanity demands that a living human sacrifice shall be made to it. These are the girls who find a flendish delight in flattering and cajoling some middle-aged man into being unfaithful to his wife. They tell him pretty lies about what a boy he is and how much too young for his wife and that they love him for himself alone. And it amuses them to see how big a fool they can make 6f him and to wafch the agony of his poor jealous wife who sees all that she holds dear in life being taken from her. Many a girl wrecks a home and orphans children and ruins the lives of & man and woman just for sport. Pl iy WOREE still is the middle-aged woman who preys on boys. It makes her feel young again to feed on the fresh hearts of young lads. It flatters her to think that she can take them away from girls of their own age. She enjoys their adoration, their blind faith, and she uses every art and wile that her long experience with men has taught her to snare them, and then she laughs at them. And it is nothing to her that she has sullied their souls, that she has made them distrust all women, and that she has taken something beautiful out‘ of their lives that can never come back into them again. And there are married men who, to add a little pea to their day, win the love of the girls who work for them. They are ade in love-making that makes the boys love-making seem crude. They know how to appeal to a girl's sympathy with a hard-luck story, how to woo her with gifts and delicate atten- tions. They know how to break down the barriers which convention and the moralities have built around a girl. ‘They can't marry. They don’t want to. They are not really in love, but it is amusing to them to have a pretty little playmate who trembles at their touch, and it is nothing to them that they fill a girl's heart so full of love for them that it will never have room in it for any other man. No. Everything isn't fair in love. Love can be the cruelest thing on earth. DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1930.) Beets With Peas.

We all know that one good tonic universally good, is brushing the hair. But it is necessary that brushes and combs should be abselutely clean. Dan- druff is a germ, it can be caught, it can be transferred. If you have it never let any one use your brush or comb, and never use them more than a day without washing them in hot water and soap, ringing in water and drying thor- oughly. Why brush germs bafk into your hair? Of course, never use a comb or_brush belonging to any one else. For blondes, this tonic is good!
