She Was a Debutante.

That Washington, D. C., has a welladvertised social life and an up-to-date colored population is illustrated by the following: 4 Young Mrs. H required a nurse for her children and advertised to fill > the position. From among the applicants she selected a neat and attractive young colored girl, soon arranging most of the preliminary details of hiring. “You may have" two nights a week out," Mrs. H— 1 —- said kindly. “That wouldn’t do foh me,” the colored girl answered quickly. “Ah must hab ebery night out dis wintab.” “Out every night!” replied Mrs. H— —, in' astonishment. “And why this winter?” “Well, yo’ see” —the colored girl hesitated a moment —“yo’ see, Ah’m a deberatante dis yeah, an’ Ah mus’ be out at night.”—Judge.
