Loaing is enc of the lost arts in
America-no, it is more than art; it is
more than an accomplishment. Educa-
ton can not impart it-intermittent
loaing requires positive genius, For
the mar who loafs for q living, he who
makes a business of what should be a
paStime, has not achieved the real re
suit. Loalng that is |unceasing is yul-
gar laziness, Only the business man,
sometimes pressed and harried, has the
power to genuinely loaf.
The best loafing is done out of doors.
An open wood-lre, an easy chair, an
opportunity to put the feet higher than
the head, is not to be refused in the win
ter time; but loafng in the summer
requires the aid of hearing, sight, and
smell.
When you lie on the understanding
sod, shaded b.. the Clustering leaves of a
whispering oak, and with your face
turned upward, allow your senses to
minister to you, excluding every thought
excepting those that sensation brings to
the brain-then, in the presence of Ma
ture, you can genuinely loaf. No nerv-
Gus activity disturbs you-all Nature
idles. You watch the droning fight of
the distant hawk the timid rabbit peers
through the foliage unsecured by your
motiOnless form, and above you a chat
tering chipmunk leisurely cracks the
aoorns, and jokingly throws you the
shells. The birds in the neighboring
trees are gossiping gaily and chirping
attheir play, and occasionally a meadow
lark rises from an adjacent meadow to
give voice to her ioyin song. You watch
the light play in the oak leaves; you
see afar the clouds rising and falling
upon the panorama of the hills; and
near at hand you notice the silent gopher
some quiet quest, and the butterfly
sailing from leaf to flower, with
out an aim, without a care, the repre-.
sentative loafer of the lazy day. Near
by, you hear the hum of locust and bee,
and near and far the alternate rush and
hush OF the breeze; but the ear gets sat
lsfaction rather from the absence of ac-
oustomed noises, for the city, with its
din, is far away, Gathering civilization
is forgotten, and even nature shows by
soothing sounds alone that she does not
sleep as the summer day goes by. And
5hen what a new world is opened to the
man that has the gift of smelling! Few

Kentucky Bears Off the Palm.

P~UT-IN-BAY, August l6.-Among all
the beautiful women who have been
here, it was left to three girls from
Georgetown, Ky, to achieve the great
est success. They came attended by
their father and utterly unknown. In
"a hours they were tho admiration and
toast, and unable to keep half their en-
gagements.
The ladies are the daughters of Mr..
Soper. The Oldest is Mrs. Clay Bar
clay, a widow, 20 years old; the second,
Miss Katie Soper, sweet l6; the third,
Miss Lulu, just Is. They are all bru-
]nettes, with eyes Of jet blackness, won
derfully regular features, and forms of
such grace and symmetry as seem to be
peculiar to Kentucky, l heard by tele.
phone that the largest shoe worn in the
party is a children's size, No. IS. And
the dressing Of the young ladies, and
their diamonds, made all the other bellies
green with envy. Said a lady to me:
"Just think of some peoples luck To
be a widow at 90, g~orgeously lovely, and
with diamonds that would buy out the
Bay House."
They went away this morning, leay-
ing a fragrant memory and many dis
consulate and lonesome hearts behind
them.--Cor. Cincinnati Commercial.

tain smells; and we have a friend who
can sit in the atmosphere of his dwell
ing and, by Imagination, construct for
his nostrils at will, any scent, from that
of a tea-roso to a mission-schOol'si but
this ability with the nose is rare indeed.
The man who loals TO perfection must
have a cultivated nose. He must be able
to enjoy the smell Of the earth, the COM
bined and changing odors that the
breeze brings to him as he lies at his
ease on the sod.
A genuine loaf will not last all day.
As the shadows begin to l%engthen, as
nature grows more noisy, when the
birds begin their evening songs, the rest
ed man rises and with slow, swinging
step, strides back to civilization, to the
company of friends at home, to that
piece of bread and butter, and that cup
of tea that nature nowadays doesn't give
to a man without work and strife.-Tb1
