Every thing goes smoothly 'tit Long Branch is reached. Here several dozen happy wives greet their husbands, whose business has kept them it) the city ail week, with resounding smacks that make a city man feei glad he is a com muter and uta)<ried. This is enooun tered at almost every station. But it is at Asbury Park that the reai kissing is seeu, for as the train putis into the station the number of waiting wives runs into the hundreds. Occasionally one or two women, with a sad look on their faces leave the station when they discover that their hubbies'are not on the train.The recal oitant butbauds arrive on a train about two hours later, however, each one with a box of candy or a basket offruit under his arm, which, he has confided to the conductor is to "square himself" with his lady-by-the sea for an extra hour or two spent with the boys.

Mr. Cartot ia weli versed iu tite existing condition) and the transactions ieading up ft them, having obtained conaiderabie knowiedge of the company's opera tions from officers and creditors rep resented by the iaw firm of Durand Irvins Carton, of which he isa mem her. Mr. Carton said that he did not be iieve the ciaims against the company wouid go to $500,000. He thinks that $400,000 wiii cover it. The defunct First Nationai bank of Manaaquan, the failure of which and the suicide of ita president, Morgan DeL Magee, are said to have been caused by ioaing operations with the bridge company, has a direat ctaim of about $80,000 which with other hypothecated ciaims wiii bring its totaieiaimnp to perhaps $50,000.

The bonds, however, were issued and the piant mortgaged. Then the company de auited on the bonds and tite hoiders ustituted foreclosure proceedings on the mortgage.

There is some opposi tion to him in his own county which is being led by Theodore Strong, an Influential ieader. presumabiy in the interest of Senator Brown, of Mon mouth. Mr. Brown, is expressing great friendship for Mr. Howeii, while the iatter is doing the same for the Monmouth Senator.

After three signa! corps oiticers—Lieu tenants Lahm, Fouiois and Seifridge— had made eight trips in the airship at Washington Generai James Aden, chief signai otHcer, informed Captain (Baidwin that, having fuitiiied his cou i tract, he eouid turn over the baiioon at any time. While the airship had been accepted as far as construction, speed and endurance were concerned, Cap I tain Baidwin stiii had one provision of his contract to carry out. This was to train two sjgna! corps officers to han die the craft, in an hour's time he trained three oHicers to Generai Alien's satisfaction. OtHciai tests were made at Spring Held.

Miss May Winifred Parsons, the American giri who committed suicide in her apartments on the Avenue Iena, in Paris, with a revoiver. went to Paris four months ago, attended by three servants. She went to marry an American, who, however, died in June. Miss Parsons was inconsoiabie and every day visited the grave of her iate I tiance, covering it with Cowers.

CRiMES AND CASUALTIES. Under a ciose exami nation Mrs. Bonnie Rosenbioom and her six teen-year-oid daugh ter, Eva, confessed to the poiice in Bai titnore who had arrested them that Samuei .1. Rosenbioom. their husband and father, had been murdered by his son in his store in Wtndber, Pa., be cause the aged merchant had quarreied continuaiiy with his famiiy and had beaten, at) of them frequently^, $he sdy*.Ttemm<W<r. #Mose whereabouts* both women say they are ignorant of, then piaced the body in the trunk in which it was found near Camden. N. .1. The women had been itving in Baitimore since iast duty with another member of the famiiy and had hereto fore eiuded the vigiiance of the poiice. At first both denied aii knowiedge of the crime, hut the giri family broke down and gave information which ied the poiice to further cross examine the mother. Details of the hdtdup of eieven stages within the boundaries of the Yeiiowstone park show it to have been the most daring robbery of the kind that has taken piace in the west in many years. The work was done by a ione masked highwayman, and the pas sengers were heipiess in his hands, as no guns or pistois are permitted in the park to either drivers or tourists. Prom the statements of passengers it is esti mated that approximately $2,000 in cash was obtained, aiso drafts worth $10,000 and other paper and tickets caiiing for transportation, besides vai nable watches and jewelry. George W. Fitzgeruid. assorting teiier of the Chicago subtreasury at the time of the theft of $113,000 in government money, eighteen months ago, has been arrested in Chicago charged with the crime. His attorney, Edwnrd R. Litz inger. had endeavored vainiy to obtain his rciease on a $30,000 baii bond, 6xed i by Judge Chetiain. It was announced by Air.

Hitchcock, CAMPAIGN. xcw York headquar ters, and in a minute things began to happen. Right off the reei it came out i that Governor Hughes is to be renomi nated to heip the uationai ticket and that Senator Joseph B Foraker of Ohio is to be invited to take the stump for Taft under the auspices of the national committee. Postmaster Genera) Meyer, who was at Hot Springs. Va.. conferring with Judge Taft, expressed himseif in an interview on the generai poiiticai sit uation and on the Democratic proposi tion of guaranteeing nations] deposits. He said: "ibis guaranteeing of depos its by ait banks wouid mean nothing ;ess that) that the conservative and aonestiy managed banks wouid have 3) pay the debts of hanks which have oeen badiy and dishonest iy managed. The proposed system wouid resuit in re*oiutionizing the methods of banka. THE NATtONAL chairman of the Re pubiican nations] com mittee. returned to the and state banks and trnst companies wou!d be forced to enter under the same arrangements in order to have their deposits guaranteed, which wouid be an injustice to national hanks, ns the stockhoiders in the nationa) banks are subject to doubie iiabiiity for de posits, which is not true of state banks."

Mr. Bryan ex pressed himseif as more than pieased with the reception given him in Des Moines. Wiiiiam H. Taft, it is now practicai jiy determined, wiii make a stumping tour of the doubtfui states. This was announced by Gus J. Karger. persona) pnbiicity representative of the candi date, who visited Washington to spend a day on business. "Of course the matter cannot be said to be decided I yet," said Mr. Karger, "but i think the secretary inciines to favor making the tour, and know some of his trusted advisers do aiso. it wiii be decided iater, on a consensns of opin ion of the various advisers and man agers, but indications are that the trip wiii be made." The Democratic state convention at Minneapoiis stampeded for Governor John A Johnson and nominated him for re-eiection with a rush after a re markabie demonsttation. Frank Day, the governor's representative, imme diateiy rushed out of the building to find a teiepbone in order to get into communication with the governor at the capito). When asked if he would accept the nomination Governor John son said, "I have not been oiBciaiiy noticed of my nomination, so have nothing to say."

B., was the editor ia eidef, ami Tommy (in st name a ad degree of education wanting) was the generai ofiice boy. Margaret Van Amburgh. B. At. (bacho ior maid), heid ati the other positions. This aide trio kept things moving amteabiy—a state of affairs due to the editor's never failing good nature, to Tommy's iove of the ludicrous and to Miss Van Amburgh's—weii, to her com bined prettiness and extraordinary abiiity. into the midst of this center of ac tivities on one particularly exacting afternoon a minute piece of pasteboard forced Its poiite intrusion. Tommy handed it to Miss Van Amburgh with a reminiscent grin. "She toid me." he announced! "to give it to Mr. Mason, but 1 promised the boss not to let any one get by me this afternoon. She came near it, though. Say, but she's a winner!" Miss Van Amburgh gianedd ift the name, dropped her work and. ignoring Tommy's gratuitous observations, went out to meet Miss Elizabeth Greene. To Tommy's amazement he soon found himseif ushering the "winner" into the editor's sanctum. "H'm," he soiiionuized within cai cuiated earshot of Miss Van Amburgh. "something's up. She ain't no au thorest. 1'ii bet my meai ticket." "Tommy," reproved Miss Van Am burgh, with dignity, "you are not em ployed to pass comments on Mr. Ma son's visitors. Copy these letters." "Mark my words." he muttered as he moistened the copying sheets, "she's got the boss faded—sure." And it iooked so when an hour biter the mysterious visitor, smliing. i<ut with tear stained eyes, ieft the office, foiiowed by the attentive editor. "Just ciose up the day's business as best yon can, Miss Van Amburgh," in trueted Mr. Mason in passing, "i shaii not be back this afternoon." "Wot did 1 teii ycr?" boasted Totn my, but Miss Van Auiburgh was too busy to angwer. Things went badiy in the othce of the Literary i.ea Set the next dny. The editor in chief was nottceabiy dis traught. He dictated in an absent minded manner and again ieft the of fice eariy, offering no expianation of this most unusuai proceeding. Tommy waited untii the door ciosed tight and then whistied. "Gone to meet the 'winner,'" he con jectured. "I'ii bet my"— "Tommy, dust Mr. Mason's desk and be quiet about it." directed Miss Van Amburgh. "You grow iazier every day." in a few minutes oniy the ciick, ciick, of the typewriter broke the si ience. Suddcniy a iong chuckie came from the editoriai sanctum. "Tommy, what are you doing?" de manded Miss Van Amburgh, facing the cuiprit sterniy. "Get on to this," said the unabashed Tommy, reading haitingiy from some tom scraps of paper pieced together on the desk biotter before him. "I found them in the wastebasket, it's hot stuff: 'Weii—that's—the—way—i—feei— With a sudden sweep of her hand Miss Van Amburgh sent the teiituie scraps dying. "I'ii have you discharged. Tommy," she threatened soiemniy. "Go take those ietters out of the press and carry them over to the postofBce. You needn't come back." "Ever?" gasped the astonished Tom my. "You ain't got no right"— "Back tonight, you siiiy. Now, step j^eiy." M&s soon as Tommy had been gone a K\)iirient iength of time to insure against his possibie return Miss Van Amburgh spread the crumpied bits of paper out on the Motter before her. She feit as guiity as she was. "Did you ever see anything so beau tifui" (her cheeks Hushed as she read) )t you wanted to throw your arms around it and sing for happiness? wAi. that's the way I feei about you, sweetheart, i want to foid you close to my heart and sing to yon of my love." For some time Margaret sat very stUi. her chin resting on her hand. Suddeniy she brushed away the tears that were forming in her big brown eyes and, gathering up the precious scraps, put them in at) envelope. After she had directed this sentt montat coiiection to "Miss Hiizabeth Greene." she dropped it. without hesi tation, down the otiice maii chute. The thud that indicate:} tho tetter s arriva) in the box far heiow sounded the death kneii of her hopes, and the air castle .which she had built so joyously fell I crashing about her. Hut she was glad 'she had had the enurage to give an )ther woman tho happiness she coveted for herself. With the feeiing that she had passed through some tiwftti ordea), yet had come out of it croditahiy. Margaret wrapped up a bunch of mtseeilaneons manuscripts for home work and ciosed he oiiit e. As she was reading these over iater he came upon one that bore a ftre I ious comment of her own. "This is eorth accepting." site had jotted down *or the editor's benefit, "if you can Ks the man's iove tetters np a bit. They do not ring true."* Turning the pages over listlessly to the hero's first unsatisfactory epistle, she was startled to read, in Mason's handwriting, the very tetter she had I pieced together that afternoon. She turned to the next tetter. This, too. Mason had attempted to revise. It began encouragingly, but stopped short with the characteristic marginal com meat: "Miss V., I can't do anything with these oid things. Haven't had any practice. You rewrite them." The enormity of the biunder she had made Hushed Margaret's cheeks crim son. For the next two days she went about the otBce in a daze. Should she or shouid she not confess? Her de termination of the question was as far from being settied as ever, when, iate in the afternoon of the second day, Mr. Mason caiied her into his otiice. He sat at his desk on which iay. once more, those fatai scraps of paper and heid tu his hand a letter, over which he was evidently perpiexed. He iooked up at Margaret, however, with a smile. "Here's ttie strangest mixup, Miss Van Amburgh. i wonder if you ran hc!p me make head or taii of it. Looks to me as if that incorrigibie Tommy had been piaying one of his practical jokes again. See here." But Margaret wouid not iook. "i'm to biame, not Tommy," she con fessed, and then somehow she got through her expianathmf It was a humiliating experience. When she had finished and with pa thetic humility begged Mason's for giveness he iooked at her with a ten derness she knew she did not deserve, but which perversely she felt was worth the having blundered to win. "There's only one thing I'm sorry about," he said kindly. "You should have directed these iittie scraps of sentiment to yourseif, Margaret. They were written with the thought of you iu my heart. Thpy are my Crst love tetters." At this Margaret unexpectediy burst into tears. The strain of confession had unnerved her. Mason blessed her for it. It gave him the opportunity he longed for—of holding her in his arms and of comforting and ioving her. "But what wili you teil Miss Greene?" asked Margaret, dismay and amusement taking turns in possession of her big brown eyes and adorable mouth. "Oh, I'll make it ail right with Cous in Eiizabeth!" Mason assured her, iaughing. "She's a dandy giri, but has just had a failing out with her Cance. and I've been trying to help her patch it up." "Oh!" said Margaret comprehend ingly. "Do you know, dearest," asked Ma son, fingering the scraps of paper on his desk. "I'm insufferably proud to think my Brst love letter is accepted." "It—it rings true," commented Mar garet archiy. "I knew you couid do ;t." Just here Tommy hurst in upon the lovers. lie explained that he had mocked severai times, but got no nn .wcr. Tint) he coulinutd to-stand in the doorway, grinning.

A Frost !n Juty. ByC. B Lewis. Copyrighted, 1908, by Associated Idterary Press. When Miss Mary Cleves, forty yearn oht and aunt of Kiieen Oaves, not yet quite half those years, accepted the re sponsibility of acting as chaperon to the young iady for a few weeks' stay in the Berkshire hiits she determined to do her duty at all costs. They had scarceiy reached the hotel selected when that duty confronted her. I'aul Clifford, the artist, crossed their path. The young peopie had many mutual friends in town, but had never been introduced. In any hotei in the Berkshires, the Catskilis or on the seashore a hand some young gir! and a bncheior artist of note, with romance stiii leashed In ids soui, are bound to meet sooner or later If given haif a show. Such meetings come about by acci dent, or Providence takes a hand, and the first thing they know they have Introduced themscives to each other and are taiking about art and motor trips through Hu rope. Aunt Mary understood this: aiso that she was there to prevent It. She wouid insist on formailty to the bitter end. She did insist. Even when sho and Miss Eileen in walking out one day were suddeniy confronted by a snake as much as nine inches long and screamed and the artist, came run ning up and saved their iives from the monster she stood on formniity and insisted that her charge do the same. The artist hero was dismissed with a forma! bow and went his way w ith an eld sense of their ingratitude gnawing at his heart. Three or four days later, however, a fumiiy with whom he was weil ac quainted in the city arrived, and a formal Introduction took ptace. This made things ail right in one way and aii wroug in another. He was now privileged to lift his hat and say g<w td morning, but the old; maid looked upou him as a possible [over and' added many precaut ions. Site was polite, but she was aiso vtgi-l taut. The artist probably hoped, as! another man wouiu in his piece, that i in time she wouid thaw out, and he heid himseif ready day and night for more heroic deeds. Around the second story of the hotei ran a veranda, and the three parties in: the case had rooms opening on to this j promenade. One afternoon as the aunt' was parading up and down the verau-! da she noticed that the artist wasjp_hisj room writing a ietter. She at once, suspected that it was a note to be passed to Miss Eiieen at the first fa vorable opportunity. The chaperon was disturbed, but de termined. She promenaded clear around the house, and u[mn her return she iteheid n sheet of note paper iying outhetioor. Site aiso saw that the! artist had stepped out of his room. A! draft had caught up the ietter he was; writing and drawn it through the open! window. Aunt Mary was a woman of the sternest principies. She reasoned it! out in a moment that she had no mo- j rai right to that note. !t was for her to ignore its existence and continue! her promenade, but a.I at once her stern principies took a tumbte. She stooped, seized the sheet and tied to her room, which was next to that of her niece. Even then it was not too iate to save her life) mg pritt cipies untarnished. She could have torn the sheet into fragments before reading the lines written thereon. She! could, but she didn't. She read even to! the iast word, and a moment iater she was in the room of her niece, saying: "I suspected it from the first! He is a cold blooded wretch!" "Who is, auntie?" was the naturai query. "Mr. Clifford! I have found him out just in time. Oh. the perfidy of it! Oh. the iusuits heaped upon us! Read that. No. iet rue read it." And, holding the haif dnished tetter in her left hand and tlstng the right foreiinger to punctuate the air white niie heid her figure in tragic pose and spoke from the depths of her indigna tion, she read: Dear Jim—1 havo seen both of them The otd one is no good and badiy out of repair. Wouidn't take her as a gift. Guess she was one of the first ones made. in her. Decided bargain, and I shah ciosc the dent at once. Ciimbs the steepest hilis around here like a cat, and you ought to see her scoot on the ievei! The old one— That was as far as the artist had written when he ieft the room, and the breeze came in and toyed with the sheet and sent it to the feet of tiie woman who had a duty to do. She finished reading and maintained her pose for haif a minute and then soi ernniy said: "I found it on the vedanda. The wind brought it to me. It came from his room. I saw him as he was writ ing it." "Do you mean that Mr. Ciifford wrote this?" asked the young iady. "1 do. Was ever viiiainy more com pietciy unmasked! He has seen both of us. The old one is no good and bad )y out of repair, i am the oid one. I am badiy out of repair." "But, auntie"— "Don't interrupt me. Wouidn't take her as a gift! Guess she was one of the first ones made. Thts about me— about your own aunt! Oh. the crafty, sneaking viiiain!" "But why shouid Mr. Ciifford write such things about you? He is snreiy a gentieman, and. there must be a mis take somewhere." "And be refers to you," continued the aunt without heeding the queatioa —"he refers to yon as a ciipper with heaps Of go in her. You are a decided bargain. You ciimb hiiis tike a cat You scoot on the ievei! The tnan ought to be driven from the hotei." "He never wrote it!" excinimed the giri. "He never tueaut you nor me. There is some awfui mistake here, t never saw his imtuiwriting. but I'ii"— "Wait right here!" hoarseiy com manded the aunt. And, with the tetter in her hand, she went down to the of Bce to consuit the register. She was absent ten minutes, and during this intervai Miss Eileen heard a man's steps on the veranda and peeped out to see the artist iooking about as if he had tost something. When the aunt returned she had the tight of victory inhereyes. "The writing is the same," she an nounced. "He wouid he convicted in any court in the iand. I am an oid one and hadty out of repair, and you are a ciippcr and ctimh hilts ttke a cat. If he doesn't teave the hotet this evening we shat! start for home in the morning." "But I won't go unti! we are sure about It," reptied the young tady, with spirit. "Oh, we'ii be sure enough about it. Meanwhile at dinner tonight we'Ii give Mr. l'aui Ctifford the cotdest .snubbing a man ever received. If you don't as sist me I'ii teiegraph your father. Wc'ii see if he wiii put up with his daughter being caiicd a cat and a de cided bargain, i wiii do the snub bing, and you simpiy maintain your diguity. Out of repair, am I? We'ii see if he isn't worse off." The artist missed his haif finished epistie, made a search for it and Onai iy indited another and maiied it away. He came down into the parlors ten minutes before dinner, hoping for a word or two with Miss Oicves. She biusheti at sight of hint and biushed stiil harder as he advanced, but she stood on her dignity—that is, she tamed her head away—and in some confusion he passed tier and re marked to the annt that it tafd been a fine day. Miss Cieves wheeled about tike a machine, and after fixing him with a coid giare tasting thirty sec onds she iciiy rcpiied: "Sir, you have made a mistake." The artist feii hack. He airnost feii over himseif in doing so. So far ns he was concerned he might have fatt en over the hotei and not been aware of the fact. It was a snmmer frost, and it nipped him hard. Had he turn ed once more toward the giri he wouid have found her pose as dignified as before, hut a took of something iike pity in her eyes. Mr. Ciifford did not enter the din ing room. Frostbites take away a man's appetite. He went ont into the dtisk anti sat down on a bowider and imagined that he was Sheriock Hoijtli.tttnd after an hour or so he !#hrcd-,gngs out. Titen he sent a teiegram to a friend In the city-,a friend who knew the Oeves famity weii. That night he was missed from pariors and veratfkas. He eouid piay and sing and recite, and I here were many inquiries for him. When they were addressed to Miss Oeves her repiy was: "Excuse me. but i don't know the party." There was a new arriva! at the hotei next forenoon. He was cioseted with the artist for haif an hour, and then he hied him forth and found Miss fieves seated in a grotto, sttli wonder ing how any man on earth dared to write to another that site was an oid one. The interview which foilowed was hot for the first fifteen minutes. Then it graduaiiy cooied off, though at regular intervals for the next haif hour the woman in the case rose to her feet ami exciaimed: "yes, but how dared he write that tite old one was no good and out of repair? It's sitocking. sir. It'sdread fui! it's something that i cannot for give." "Put you know. Hiss Cievcs"— "A nd how dared he speak of my dear nicceasciimbingnhiiiiikeacatt And how ,dared he refer to her as a scooter on the ievel! Think of it, sir— a scooter!" But you now understand"— "Why, if her father come to know that she had been caiied a cat, a scooter and a hargttiti, i shouid trem hic for the consequences!" Xcvcrtheiess. when a man has expia nations'ihat expiain and when he goes over those expianations often enough, cvee nu indignant oid maid must be convinced at iast. So it was witii Miss fieves. She fiuaiiy meited, drew* a breath of reiief and. seeing Miss Eiieen strobing toward them, she caiied to iter: "Oh, dearie, it appears that we have made an awfut mistake. it transpires that Mr. Oifford was writing to Mr. Oasron about a enupie of autos that the tatter had asked him to iook at. Therefore am not an oid one, and you don't ciimb tiiiis iike a cat. if you can tind Mr Oifford bring him here, and I wiii apologize." Any artist who didn't pursue his ad vantage after that deserved to be ieft behind in the race. The Land of the Free.

The freshness, the charm, the briiiiance vanish tike the hioom from a peach which is rudaiy bandied. The matron is oniy a dim shadow, a faint echo of the charming maiden. There are two reasons for this change, ignorance and negiect. Few young women appreciate the shock to the system through the change which comes with marriage and motherhood. Many negiect to deai with the unpteasant peivic drains and weak nesses which too often come with mar riage and motherhood, not understanding that this secret drain is robbing the cheek of its freshness and the form of its fairness.

Copyrighted. 1908, by Associated i Literary Press. j It was a tiny iittie isiand. The year before Dick Staiey had threatened to come back aome day and carry it off in k Bhoe boi. But auch as it waa it was Barton Bradiey's own, and he was im menaeiy proud of his poaseaaion. Four years eariier his physician had ordered him to spend the summer in the woods to escape an impending at tack of "nerves." He had rented this Iittie island from its woodsman owner and had spent a deiightfui summer choppihg his own wood, frying his own bacon and in the intervals planning the piay that had brought him recognition. His Brat royaities had gone to pay for the iittie isiand, and now, when Bradley pitched his tent eariy in May, he went to work to build a iog hut that ahouid form a more permanent camp. Since success had come he was in a position to buiid a camp as eiaborate as any of the eiectricaiiy iighted, steam heated structures which mas queraded as camps in the fashionable coiony at the upper end of the iake, but Bradley wouid have none of these. As far as possibie the camp shouid be his own handiwork. He even re belled at the necessity for assistance in raising the iogs when the waiis reach ed a height above his ability to handle the heavy logs. He made the island his sanctuary and a thing apart from the busy months of the winter season. No one save Staiey had ever been invited to the piace, and only the guide who sometimes came to see that ail was well or ieave mail when Bradiey iacked the time to row down to the iittie viiiage ever braved the "No Trespass" signs with which the shore bristied. So it happened that Bradley, tramp ing over his five acre domain, was astonished to see a canoe on the shore and a giri calmiy eating a iate lunch under the very sign forbidding a iand ing. She was undeniably a pretty giri, with crisp brown curis escaping from a tam-o'-shanter and straying over a cheek on which the red showed brave ly through the tan. Bradley approved her costume of brown. It was so uniike the frocks of the fashionables, who dressed not for the woods, but for the men in camp and with an eye for spectacuiar effect. But notwithstanding the fact that Bradiey approved or tne stender, wen built Qgure he resented the intrusion on his isiand. He hated the fashionable crowd, and here was one at his very door, per haps the advance guard of a horde of iion hunters who would overrun the piace and gushingiy assure him that they doted on his piays even whiie their conversation showed that they had been more intent upon the chatter in the box than upon the diaiogue on the stage. It was this habit of using the boxes for sociai visits that had Brat given Bradiey his distaste for society. "It is too bad that you cannot read," he said, with what was Intended to be cutting sarcasm, though insensi bly his voice softened as he iooked Into two giorious brown eyes. "I know what you mean," deciared the giri, with a iaugh and a meaning giance at the forbidding sign, "but I was tired paddiing, and when I saw you at work on the hut I knew that the owner was not here, and I sup posed that the sign was enforced only when the owner was here. Can you be bribed!" She held b ahimtheweiidiied 'un box with its appetizing sand vice, amt dainty cake. "i a human enough to be hungry," she ttxpiained, with a iitSe "but t always tarry more than I need." ll...d)*ey iooked into the brown eyes an t was !o;t. H^ accepted a sandwich and sank down on a rock opposite the one on which she was sitting. "Who is the horribie man who won't tet us iand on this iittie Eden?" de manded the giri. "He's a New York chap." explained Bradiey noncommittaiiy. "He doesn't tike the peopie at the upper end of the iake, and he stuck those signs up." "Thereby preventing m^ from find ing a refuge from the piay campers," said the giri severeiy. "He shoutd change the sign to read. 'No Trespass ing by Peopie Who Ho Not Under stand.' There are people even up there who iove the woods and hate the poor imitation of Newport. New port." she added in expianation, "is a fashionabie coiony down on the Rhode isiand shore." "I've heard of it," assented Bradiey, the scene of whose iatest comedy had been iaid in that very resort. He was giad that this giri mistook him for a guide. It wouid be a pity to unde ceive her and piace their .mpromptu acquaintance upon a coidiy forma! basis. She chatted of the iake and the woods, and Bradiey more than ever admired her when she grew eioquent regarding the beauties of his beioved iake. it formed a common bond of sympatny. The n't] forgot that she was talktng to a guide, and Bradiey tn turn forgot that she was a member of the hated rotony of fashionable foik who were doing their best to make the take as srtiticiai as themselves. It was a good two hours before his visitor sprang up with an exclamation of surprise that she shouid have itn gered so ioug. and with a iittle sigh oi regret Bradley watched her naddls away, handling the frail canoe as ciav erly as though to the manner born. After that she came frequently and became much interested in the budd ing of the house. The heavy iogs were aii in piace now, and oniy the tighter work remained. The giri (Bradiey soon knew her to be Miss Nannette Cowdrey) found the completion of the cabin a matter of absorbing interest. It was no better than the huts of the natives save that it was more carefuiiy finished, and of this Nannette highiy approved. "It seems so fooiish." s#e observed, "to go in out of the giorious w oods and turn on the hot water and dress for dinner in the same frocks we wear It) town. I should iove to spend a sum mer in a camp like this with oniy sympathetic peopie around me." She sighed to think of the impossi bility of obtaining her wish and then gave her attention to superintending the fabrication of a rustic chair, deep, roomy and redoient of the woods. For a month she was aimost a daiiy visitor. *)hen one afternoon she came with a frown upon her pretty face, and as Bradiey settied himseif for a chat she drew a siip of printed paper from her pocket and regarded him at tentively. "A penny for your thoughts," he of fered when she did not speak. "1 think that you are horrid," was the unexpected answer. "This little Island has been such a haven of rest to me. Now I find that, instead of being a guide, you are a nasty, cynical playwright. I hate you!" "Because I write cynical plays?" he asked. "I assure you that I wouid rather write the other kind, but they do not take with the audiences. "I hate you because you deceived me," was the answer in a voice that was ciose to tears. "I saw this in a magazine." Bradiey groaned. In an evti mo ment he had given an interviewer a giowing description of his isiand with out betraying its iocation. It had been made the basis of an absurd "human interest" magazine story. A copy must have faiien into her hands, and more than ever Bradiey was determined to get even with the imaginative person who had written the story. "And we cannot be friends," he asked, "just because I am not a guide?" "Because you deceived me." correct ed Nannette. "You were just leading me on to taik about the imitation campers so you couid put it into a Play." "Not into a piay," denied Bradiey, "into a romance—a private romance, I had hoped. Had I introduced my seif as a city man you hover couid have come again. I shouid have raised the barrier of conventionaiity between us. As it was, you thought me a guide because I was buiiding my own cabin. With a guide you feit free to come and go as you pienset^. It was oniy for that reason I did not expiain your error." "But now that I know the truth I must come no more," she said siowiy as she rose to her feet. "I am sorry that I have found out." She iooked iongingiy about the camp which she had heiped to make so com fortable with her suggestions and aid. Then she turned and ran down to the beach, where her iight canoe iay upon the sands. She had aiready pushed off when he reached the beach, but at his caii she checked her headway. "May I come for you?" he caiied softiy. "May I come for you< Nan nette, and bring you back to the camp that we buiit for ourseives?" For a moment Nannette paused. "Yes," she caiied. dnaiiy adding. "Come soon," and then the paddie dip^ ped deep into the water. What Do We Know of God? For when God made promise to Abraham, because he couid swear by no greater, he swore by Himseif— Hebrews T., IS. No man ever had more opportun [ty of seeing God in nature and his tory than you and I have. God was no nearer to our fathers than to us. Nay, our growing knoweige of God's Work has brought us nearer to Him. He has iet us into some of His se crets. If there is a veil that hides God in Nature from us, it is in out eyes, over our minds, and not in Na ture. The Christian thought, then, of God, first and foremost, is that God is one—that there is some one Purpose, Mind, Personality, immeas urable, inconceivable; and that ws ourselves, like all we see, are a part of the expression of this Being which we call by the name of God; the un known origin and sustainer of mat ter and life and mind and soul. Ws think of Him best as the Father; that is our creed. We are very Biowly learning by experience—that best of teachers, who charges very high for what she teaches—the lesson that the Jews had partly learnt, that God rules the world of men in righteousness; that injustice, greed, lust, extravagance and ambi tion bring misery ali round; and we are very slowly acquiring that God like and brotherly love of men and sympathy in their sorrow and sin, which make perfect happiness lmpos sibie for men till sorrow and sin are fought and conquered. We are learning that the only path to pro gress !B progress ]n gooooeaB. But we team about God in a sec ond way. There is that marvelous figure In world history, Jesus Christ to whom the eyes of men have turned Ifor centuries, as they have turned to no cne else; on Whom they now' Irest with ever-growing Intensity of hope. What of Him? Have we any warrant besides the wordB of Christ Himself, reported In St. John's Gos pel, for believing that Jtgr God Whom Christ reveals? E$rd Himself makes answer: "If I bear witness of myself, my witness Is not true. There Is another that beareth witness of me." The answer Is "Yes." Christ reveals God to us. Just as Nature compels the recogni tion of a cause behind It and we name the Cause God, so Christ compels us to think how He came to be. We can know much of Christ, and the world haB learned by experience that He Is—the Teacher, the Inspirer, the Healer of Sorrows, the Saviour from sin, the Radiator of Love. Knowing all this and that there Is none like Him, we can eay, from our own ex perience that it can be nothing less than God Himself which Is manifest ed In Christ. God is our name for the highest wet can conceive, and this la what Christtmanifests. The more we know of Ohrlst the more certain we are that tt is God and nothing less than God whom Christ reveals. His first discHples learned who He was In just the same way. They lived with Him, talked! with Him for years, and at last camelthe irresistible con clusion. Not tllltthe end of His days on earth did Hef teach them by di rect words. He tlet them see Him, and they learnt the lesson. "He that hath seen Christ hath seen the Father"—that is.) hath seen all that the Father can so#manlfest. Nature tells us^somethlng of God, but leaves untold' all that we most want to know. The life and spirit of Christ tells us far (more, and that Is why His Qret followers hailed Him, as the revelation of God; In Christ Whom we see, Is shown something of tne God we cannot see. When St. Paul tells us that God was In Christ, like that of a Godlln Nature, Is near er and clearer to us than it was to any previous generation. Ch*dst stands out to-day In firmer outline, less obscured by theological scaffold ing than ever before. We see Him fn the sublimity of what He really was. Trinity Sunday comes year by year to remind us that God was In Christ, and that without this revela tion our knowledge of God Is quite Incomplete. Love. "We can leave the dead In the hand* of God And bend to our Father's Wilt, As we look away to the shining shore And feel that they love us still." An Easy Task. You will not Hnd It hard to get as much truth out of the Bible as you are willing to live. Rest on the Lord. It Is a great mistake to try to do the Lord's part of your work.

An hour before she had seated her seif with a brave resoiution to straighten matters, and now, after the worrying hour, heartsick and hopeiess over ike result, the woman stared in de spairing wonder. What shouid she do? There iay her tittle hank boo!t,*Th& piie of neatiy arranged bilis, her check book, three ietters from insistent colicction lawyers and. most dtrefu! of ali, a writ of attachment piaced in her hands that very morning by a po iite man who wore brass buttons on his vert. This man had surveyed her surprise with an air of btnevoient sus picion. The emptied pigeonhoies appeared to giare at her tike eyes of reproach; aiso the red figures in her recentiy batanced bank book, indicating a sad overdraft. The bank had a dreadful way of accounting for its errors and invariably put her in the wrong. She would not go to the bank. There was only one thing to do. Opening a drawer. Pauline drew out a photograph, gazed at it. moaned iike a hurt creature and Bnaily, with smarting eyes, began to tear the card. Her Angers trembied. She could not see for tears. "I can't," she whispered, dropping the picture. "He is oniy a memory now, but I can't destroy it. When I am Mrs. Winch—John—oh!" Her maid was answering the door beii's clear peal. Pauline's fingers were quick with handkerchief and hair. What on earth did Carson Winch want at this time of day? 'il'm in the library, Mattie." she called, a bit amazed at her steadiness. "It's Mr. Winch, ma'am," pushing aside the portieres. "Welt, show him in here. I thought it sounded like Mr. Winch. Is he alone?" "No, ma'am. Another gentleman is with him." "AH right. I'H see them." She pushed the telltale books and papers in a heap and rqse to draw a curtain for a softer tight. Pauline was near ly twenty-eight and showed it in the Mm The men came in smiling. "I've brought Dean Wickham to see you. Miss Altard," said Mr. Winch. "You've heard me speak of him." Wickham." Pauline's hand went nut cordiaily to grasp the ciutch of a bronzed, bearded, thick set man. who regarded her admiringiy. "Sit down and get acquainted, you two," said Winch. "i can't stay. I'll get around again before noon and car ry him off, Pauiine." There was that in his tone sugges tive of proprietorship and familiarity which grated on Pauiine's nerves, it was a new note, something more than usual, and the woman felt a pang of resentment- Carson should wait a ltt tle ionger to pay for that. Pauiine had been quite gay ail win ter and spring. The money left by her aunt must be about dissipated, Mr. Winch thought. Pauiine had iived on legacies with small doubt of more com ing at opportune times. Something al ways turned up. Her disregard of consequences could iead to but one end. Her servants had talked. The tradesmen had rubbed indignant noses. Winch heard rumors and chuckled good naturedly. Pauline was a superior woman. He wanted her and meant to get her. It was merely a question of patience. Lateiy his reward seemed in his hand. Pan iine's negatives iacked the true ring. After his cheery departure the host ess taiked brightiy to Wickham and soon had the stranger recounting bits of his history. She iiked the man. There was a fine streak of simplicity tn his direct, crisp manner. "Mr. Winch teiis me it paid you to wait, grubbing away on that ionesome claim in Aiaska." she said. "Yes, it pays to wait when one has a feeiing about it." "You mean a doubt of the wisdom of leaving a thing?" "That's it. There have been iots of us," he continued. "I teil you 8ve years makes an awfu! difference. The isoiation, the rough life, the doing for oneself, rarely seeing a woman and never a cultured. reBned lady, grow a coat of fur, all right. But I've made my pile if I have lost Hve years of real living. I'm satlsBed." "Surely," said the woman. "Not ail are as fortunate." "That's the worst of it. It is heart breaking to think of some fellows, gentlemen, you know—confident, eager, impatient, anxious to strike quick luck and to go home with Bytng col ors. They can't wait. They get to roaming, and heaven only knows where some of them land. One loses all trace, but now and then"— He paused for a moment, half smiling. Padline Allard had grown pale. Her caller did not notice the droop of the fair head. He went on speaking. "I've felt mighty sorry for one chap. We were real friendly. He couldn't wait I took over his little claim for a triBe. It was next to mine. Bless yon, it proved the richest dirt of all when I got to working it deep. He was daft on surface Bnds. And off went my hopeful acquaintance in spite ef entreaties. Funny!" Again he smiled queerly. "Mr. Winch must be delighted to have you here." remarked Pauline ab sentiy. Her thoughts were wandering tn a dreary vista of toiling, disap pointed men. far from their homes, reckless, proud, the sort that never wouid come back bearing the brand oi failure. "Oh, Carson, yes," returned Wick ham. "t!h's a decent enough felloe after his fashion—i—I—i beg pardon] There, Miss Allard, you see how a man blunders when he has led such a iife as mine—no tact. I meant to say that Winch Is a splendid chap per sonally, but I'm not used to these smart, successful men. We have had considerable correspondence since he heard I was doing well—a school friend, you know, and, of course, in terested. Welcomed me royallyl I couldn't say too much for Carson. Ha has been most kind and confidential. Twas't&fn^tngofhlm*in a buslines^ i way. We don't exactly agree about investments. That was what I had in mind. Ahem!" Pauline's amused smile was serenity itself. "I don't think a gentleman should 'count his chickens' and teil the neigh bors. do you?" she asked mischie vously. "Ah! I misunderstood: jumped at conciusions; entirely my fault." Wick ham's biood showed redly through his tan. and he stammered. "You are a delightful bear," observ ed Pauline placidly. "Maybe I will become Mrs. Winch some day, if that wiii relieve you. I shan't promise. The wind, However, points in tnat at rection." They smiled at each other for a few moments, and then Pauiine said se riousiy: "Mr. Wickham, I like yon. I trust you. I am going to ask you a ques tion. What you may surmise wili bt a secret between us forever." She stepped to her desk and brought forth the photograph. The man's face set. He was averse to sudden con Bdences. There was a tenseness in her graceful figure that seemed unnat urai. He coughed uneasily. "I want you to look at this," said Pauiine. "I want to know if in you: traveis you have ever met the original." "Let's see it," said Wickham biuntiy. He took the picture, gazed upon it for a fuii minute and did not iift hi! eyes. Meanwhiie he fumbied in a pocket and drew out a letter. "You may read this, dear iady," he said thickly without looking up. "The writer is aiive and weii. Piease sit down." His head turned from her gasp and giad cry. "Jack Frederick's girt," he whisper ed to himseif. "My God, she mustn't sob iike that!" Presentty he went over to her. His touch on her hair was very gentle, his deep voice tender as a woman's. "You see, he wiii meet me in New York on Wednesday. He teamed oi my iuck and obtained my address. Ha says he has 'made good' at iast. Yes. it was John Frederick who soid his claim and helped enrich me. Now. you have read what he has written oi his hopes, his prayer to and some one free and glad to see him, you must stop crying." Rut Pauline would neither cease hei soft weeping nor give up the letter, so Wickham left her and made his way to the door. From the street he gianced back at the attractive house and tasteful grounds. "Whew!" whistled he. "I guess i'd better not wait for Carson. There is a New York train in fifteen minutes. If I were not so mighty tickled for Jack I should feet sort oi sorry for Winch." This woman says that after months of suffering Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made her as weii as ever. Maude E. Forgie. of Leesburg,Va^ writes to Mrs. Knkham: 1 want other suffering women to know what Lydia E. Pinkham'B Vege table Compound has done for me. For months I suffered from feminine ills so that I thought I couid not lire, i wrote you, and after taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and using the treatment you prescribed i felt like a new woman. I am now strong, and well as ever, and thank yon for the good you have done me." FACTS FOR S!CK WOMEM. For thirty years Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, nas been the Btandard remedy for female ilia, and has positively cured thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, inflammation, ulcera tion, hbroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, that bear mg-down feeling, flatulency, indiges tion, dizziness or nervous prostration.

Helpftd Hints to Flower Lovers ^*laff,OWERS put in water at once will last twice as lohg as those allowed to wilt for an hour Flowers with woody stems should be stripped of their outer coverings or bark and the end of the stem siit up to aiiow of their taking up waier freely The Howers shouid never be crowded together, and a smait bit can be cut off the end of the stems, add ing a iittte charcoai each time the water is changed TO PRESERVE A SfXGLE BLOOM A very good way to preserve a singie Moom is to cut the staik naatiy and evenly across at the length required then insert it into a piece of potato, turnip, or similar root of any kind. A bloom wili in this way absorb sufficient moisture and nourishment to keep it in a fresh state for some time. Some Hewers have a tendency to fail to pieces more readily than others, just after they have been opened. Such a defect may be obviated to a great extent by dropping a iittle gumarabic or thin glue around the base of the petals of each Hower. TO PRESERVE A BOUttUET. To preserve a bouquet first sprinkle lightly with fresh water, then put It Into a vessel containing soap suds. Take the bouquet out of the soap suds every morning and lay It side ways Into clean water, keep it there for two minutes, take It out and sprinkle the dowers lightly with water. Replace It In the soap suds and it will be as fresh as when drst gathered. The suds should be changed every three days. If carefully treated In this way, wedding or other bouquets may be kept bright for at least a month. TO PRESERVE AUTUMN LEAVES AND BERRIES In Winter, when there Is often dldlculty and Incon venience In obtaining dowers for table or other decorations, It Is a good plan to have at hand leaves, grasses or berries which have been preserved during the Autumn. The leaves should be gathered when traces of coming decay are visible in the varying tints ot red, yellow and brown which late Autumn shows on vegetation ot all kinds. It is not advis able to collect them In Wet weather, and when a sudloient quantity of specimens has been gathered they should be dried flatly and carefully, so as to preserve their stems. TO PRESERVE AUTUMN LEAVES To preserve Autumn leaves put the stems in water and let them stand in a ceol place till the next day. Then place each plant between several sheets of blotting paper and Iron with a smooth Iron, taking care that the Iron is not too hot, till all moisture Is dissipated. This process dxes the colore, which become faded, or. in some eases, nearly white. Some plants require less heat than others, but If the Iron is not too hot. and Is passed rapidly and carefully over the blotting paper, the experiment will be successful with all classes of plants and those of every variety of hue and color. When thoroughly dry they are sometimes varnished, which, besides giving them a pretty gloss, acts as a preservative from Insects. Great care must be taken to keep the leaves In a dry place. If they are to be preserved for table decoration a tin box with a clone iltting lid will keep them in good condition ftT FLOWERS TO DRY IN THEiR NATURAL COLOR Dowers may be dried in different ways. The main object to be observed in doing so is to dry them so that they wii! retain their nature! shapes and colors as much as possibie. Drying between sheets of biotting paper answers admirably, for fern fronds and ieaves. Flowers may be treated in the same way; but, of course, their shape will be interfered with. The sheets of paper should be larger than the specimens to be operated upon. Place the fronds evenly between sheets of paper; the petals of the fiowers should alBO be carefully arranged, so that they may not have a crushed appearance. If they are now placed under gentle pressure, and the sheets of paper changed once or twice until the moisture is all absorbed they wiil keep for a long time. GOOD WAY TO DRY FLOWERS A very good way to dry dowers is to smoke them with sulphur in an air-tight box. Fit up the box with cross bars, so that the dowers may be hung on them. A small plate or basin is then placed through an opening in the bottom of the box. In this put a quantity of sulphur and set dre to it. The box must then be covered with a damp cloth. In about twenty four hours the dowers should be sudiciently pre served; if so. they will appear white in color; if not. the process must be repeated They should then be hung in an airy place to dry. Their colors will then come back again, or at the most, take on a lighter shade only, and if care be taken the results will be sure to please. The fashionable beits are in cross-stripe ieather or of sitk betting, matching the cottar in cotor. Few att btack gowns are worn this summer, but when they are chosen, they are in the thin transpar ent fabrics, and goiden yettow and corai pink are put with them. Btack and White check water-proof taffetas make uncommonty pretty bathing suits, not onty in the smait checks of the shepherd's piaid variety, but in the targer btock ptaids. The tong bathing ctoak is an excellent addition to the seashore girt s wardrobe. Two Charming Earty Fa!) Costumes w^iST 335/1 s*if?T 61

SimpRe Way to Clean Rugs V**"^ENBRALLY speaking, rugs should be taken up once a week and subjected to a thorough (but not violent) shaking, beating and airing, and many housekeepers think that spreading them upon the snow for a few hours does wonders towards keeping their freshness and coloring. When space Is limited, however, and shaking can only be done at the risk of rousing the Ire of all the neighbors, there are other ways, and the wise woman will choose from among them. One method of clean ing rugs that are on the door Is to strew them with tea leaves (leaves which have been drawn and then thoroughly dried will do) and then sweep carefully with a soft broom. When the pile of the rug Is very thick or long care must be taken always to brush the way of the pile If you would remove every par ticle of dust. Salt also Is used In the same way and it has the advantage of being a preventive of moths and a menace to those pests which lurk so often In carpets of Eastern manufacture—fleas! If the rugs are very much stained and soiled more strenuous measures must be adopted and the house keeper will provide herself with plenty of warm (not hot) water, pure, good soap, brush and a quantity of dry coarse cloths. She may use the brush and soap frdbly until the dirt Is removed, but if she wants -atlsfactory results, she must rinse every particle of soap from the fabric before she leaves It and dry the cleaned spots thoroughly with the cloths. Another way of cleaning rugs Is to cover the soiled spots with fuller's earth, then wash with ox gall and water, always rinsing and drying, of course. Grape stains may be removed with warm soapsuds and ammonia, then carefully rinsed. Soot and other powdery dirts will take their night If covered with cornmeal, which la afterward swept off with a slightly moistened broom. Skin rugs are perhaps more difHcult than fabric for the amateur to handle, but*the thrifty housewife need not be daunted. Cornmeal does wonders for the handsome fur rug that Is beginning to look "ratty." The meal must be well rubbed into the fur and al lowed to remain for several hours. Later, brush out the meal with a whisk and give the final touches to the rug with a soft brush. Sometimes It is necessary to go through the process twice, but the result amply repays one for the labor expended. The cheaper goatskin rugs will stand an occasional washing In warm soapsuds. Of course they must be rinsed In cold water, thjen dried carefully In a mod erately warm place, frequently turning and shaking them. Above all. the good housekeeper will give her rugs plenty of light and air. If she can afford the splen did offerings of the Orient she will know that their wonderful coloring only becomes softer and more beautiful with time and wear, and If she buys the fruit of our domestic looms she would far better be ever diligent In her labors at renovation than shut out "God's great antiseptic"—the sunshine.

At first her campaign was more or less misunderstood, and she was pronounced a crank, especially by those men whose racketing river craft ahe suppressed. But when it was found that she was making things more comfortable fpr the iil and suffering in hospitals, her work was regarded with more respect. She is responsible for the fact that drivers can no ionger clatter past hospitals, trolley cars slow down and motormon do not ring their gongs except in case of dire danger. §Vhen it is realised that most of the New York hospitals are located In the noisy heart of the city, Mrs. Rice's work wit! be better understood.

REUEE EROM THE AtLMENTS OE DOG DAYS midsummer heat -seems to bring to light every latent skin aitment and particuiariy to em phasise complexion defects. Perhaps the most common afiitction of the sum mer giri is freckles. In this case one ounce of prevention is worth two pounds of a cure, and her first aid is vetting the skin. The woman with a tendency to freckle should never go bare-headed or bare-handed, because the more sensitive her skin, the more deeply will thsfrlekles be rooted. For driving, motoring and iong walks, she should add to the broad shade hat a veil, brown or red preferred. The new geranium or cerise colored veils break the rays of light admirably, and are: most useful for this purpose. To kee* light freckles in subjection there are various homemade lotions, all within reach of the summer girl. Ond of these is fresh buttermilk, which should bo used night and morning, and allowed to dry on. The best method of applying It Is to dip an old piece of linen into a bowl of milk and then pat the face with It gently. This is equally a good remedy for tan and sunburn. Another home-made lotion consists of a teaspoonfu! of horseradish, grated and mixed with a cup of sour milk. Lei the mixture stand for six hours, and apply two or three times dally. When the freckles are very deep sot a more vigorous treatment must be used. Every night before retiring bathe the face In water as hot as It can be borne, then apply a pomade as follows: Oxlds of sina. 11 grams; talcum 10 grama; pow6*r*d soap. 00 grams; lano iine, 8 grams: tincture of benzoin, 10 grams; rain water, 01 grams; giycorine, 10 grams. The soap, powdered for this pomade, shbuid be one of the plain white soaps, which contains no free ai kali and does not bite when touched with the tongue. Allow this pomade to remain on over night. The gir! who is not accustomed to outdoor life and who wakes up in the night with a stinging sensation in the face and arms is very apt to seek re iief in cold water. If she only realized that she had an incipient case of sun burn she would liee from the water basin and use a remedy that will not increase her suffering as water does. A mild solution of witch haze! applied to the affected parte will give tempor ary relief. In the morning bathe the face, arms and neck with water as hot as can be borne, repeating the applica tions for ten or iifteen minutes. Then pat the face with old linen, or antisep tic gauze, dipped into cucumber cream, made from the foliowing formula: 011 of sweet almonds......... 4 ounces Fresh cucumber juice.10 ounces Essence of cucumbers.8 ounces White castile soap (powdered) St ounce Tincture of benzoin...2-S drachm The juice of cucumbers is obtained by boiling them in a very iittie water Slice them very thin, skin and ail. and let them cook slowly till soft and mushy: strain through a Hne sieve and then through a cloth. Make the es sence by putting an ounce and a half of the juice Into the same quantity of high-proof nlcohoi. Put the essense with the sqnp in a large jar or bottle —the larger the better, as the mixture requires much shaking. After a few hours, when the soap Is dissolved, add the cucumber juice, shake till thor oughly mixed, then pour out Into an earthen bottle and 'add the oil and the benzoin, stirring constantly till you have a creamy liquid. Be sure that the cucumber juice Is strong, for It Is the natural arsenic In the cucumber which Imparts its wonderfully whitening powers. Put the emulsion In small bot tles. keep tightly corked and In the dark, and always shake before using. It Is so quickly absorbed by the skin that It Is very pleasant to use. If the eyes burn In summer, and show a tendency to Inflammation of the lids, use an eye cup containing tepid water with a few drops of boric acid. This Is a very simple and effective remedy. If a girl so alHicted spends much time op the water she should train herself to wear blue or smoked glasses. Many girls write to me that they are annoyed by the heaviness and sourness of their hair In midsummer when It Is apt to emit a somewhat uapleasant odor. For this, of course, the one cure Is cleanliness. The hair must hs sham pooed, using a little borax In the water, rinsed very thoroughly, then dried and ventilated in the sunlight. Never braid the hair or drees It when It Is a little damp next to the scalp. This Is the most common cause for the sour odor Shake the hair In the sunlight until It Is dry to the very roots. Unless It Is very dry and apt to break, there is really no harm In washing the hair once a week In summer. Between shampoos, mojstnrs, perspiration and oil can be abs hair at night.) the scalp and tn the mornln! Another comt summer girl is by ventilating the inking orris root into -uslting it out carefully on complaint from the her inabiiity to keep herhairincuri. I give a most reliable curling lotion, which can be used in connection with kid curlers, but not oftener than two or three times a week. Divide the hair into strands, dampen with this lotion and put up on curlers until dry. or over night: 1 ounce of gobd gum arabic: Id ounce of good moist {sugar; M pint of purs hot water. Dissolve this and when cold add fluid ounices of alcohol: 6 grains each of bichloride of mercury and aal ammoniae. TMese last two shouid be dissolved in Ate aleohoi before ad miaturo- Lastly, add enough water to make the whole a pint, and perfume with any dogged cologne siow oven for t*n hours Test by running a fork or knife through the center If bloitd follows the utaaail. bake fifteen or twenty minutes longer. When soid turn out on a platter, gar nieh with slices of lemon and parsley and serve with'horseradish sauce, made from beating 4qual parts of prepared horseradish and thick sweet cream. REJUVENATING THE SUMMER HAT HIS !a the time of the year when the effect of the sun on dainty hats has aimoat ruined them. yet it ia too early to invest in a fall hat. Consequently, the girl of fore sight will bend her efforta towarda making the o!d one take on a new look. The iiret move ia to rip off ail the trimming. Then, if the hat ia a black atraw, waah it off with a little warm suds, let it dry in the aun, give it a lib eral coating of ahoe blacking, and again dry in the aun. Thia will take away the dusty, gray look. But if the hat ia a colored one. faded to aome india tinguiahable hue. go to your druggist and buy a dye of the aame color for atraw. In buying dyea always state what you want them for: there are dyea for wool, dyea for cotton, dyea for siik and feathers, and dyea for straw Dye'the old hat the aame color it orig inally was, and follow the directions carefully. 3o much for the hat itself The ribbon should be void of all threads, and if it was wired, this alao must be taken out. Ribbon which 1 as not faded but is simply soiled should be washed with naptha soap and luke warm water. Do not rub it. but put a iather of soap on the ribbon and let it remain for a few minutes, then rinse, and iron dry between two pieces of eheeting or aome white cloth without lint. Black ribbons are beat freshened by going over them with a cloth damp ened With warm water, to which a few drops of ammonia have been addt*d They should be ironed under a cloth. This done, baste back the wire ana ar range the bow an before. Flowers that are faded badjyare almost beyond redemption, but If they are merely soiled they can be given new life by dipping them In naphtha several times and letting them dry. Wash the green leaves oft carefully one by one with the naphtha, and your bunch of flowers will be fairly gay once more. If the flowers do not lend themselves to treatment, do not put them hack on the hat. Either buy a couple of new quills or a new bunch of flowers to take the place of the old ones. Should the hat be trimmed with lace, this should he washed with a pure white soap or naphtha, soap, rinsed many times, and wound around a large empty bottle to dry. Lace should never be ironed, particularly if It is a good quality. Ironing sets the pattern down flat and takes away much of Its dis tinction. Velvet can be made to look almost new again by pulling out all stray threads and steaming over the mouth of a kettle on a little tin nature which comes for the purpose. If you cannot get this fixture, dampen the back of the velvet, turn an Iron on end. and run the dampened side of the velvet over the back of the Iron slowly so that the steam comes from It This should take Feathers can be both cleaned and dyed at home. They are best cleaned by dipping In naptha and drying In the sun The fashion for tightly curled feathers has practically gone out. and the very straight ends can he slightly on the kitchen stove, holding the feather over this, and curling with the back of a stiver knife. The sait gives out a very dry heat which tends to make the feathers curi naturally. All these things done, your trimming is fresh again, and should be put back on the hat. You will then Hod that you need not buy a new hat until the fall fashions have been out for some time, and you have fully decided just what you want in the way of new milinery. Tomato Crognetteet Two large cups of tomatoes. two eggs. two tablespoons of butter, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly and then add enough bread crumbs to make a paste thick enough to fry. Drop by the table spoonful Into boiling hot lard and fry brown. Serve Immediately on a platter garnished with cress or parsley. Tomatoes and Eggs! This makes a delicious luncheon dish. Cook six eggs until they are very hard boiled. Pee! them and keep warm as possible. Make a sauce as follows: A tablespoon of butter, and a tablespoon of Hour, mixed with one cup of tomatoes. Add to this one green pepper minced very Hne. one tablespoon of parsley chopped very Hne. and salt to taste. Have ready six slices of toast. Wheat bread Is de licious for this toast if you have It —If not the white will answer. Toast the bread a golden brown, and butter. On each piece of toast put one hard boiled eg#, and poor the sauce over It
