About the Summer Girl.
Philadelphia Times


The season of the summer girl IS
here. Radiant in white dress, bright
ewes and low cut slippers, surmoUnted
bv c9auettishly dark colored hose, she
aIts from place to place in the consci-
Gus power OF her temporary accen~
dencv. She is found Mt the seaside
hotels and the mountain resorts, IN
country and town, or on board the
ocean vessel. Whatever others may
be, she, at least is always the same.
The perforated sleeve and dress yoke
make her cool and Indifferent to the
torrld rays of tho sun and her owE
self compiaceucY averts all unpleasant
worry. 1t is her aim TO be comtor-
table-like Flanagan, that is what she
is there for-and she generally man~
ages to have her own way. Nobody
can analyze the methods Of the sum
mer girl. Like her, they are light and
airy. How she attains her universal
admiration or how she holds 1t when
once it has been attained even She is
unable to tell. 1t is not because she IS
learned nor over witty, nor over wise.
Nor that SD is always either lmagln>
alive or pretty. There are homely
members of the class just as there are
medlum-appearing and pretty ones,
and, taken altogether, they are very
much the same. They do not do any
thing and they do it well 1t Is
pleasure to watch them do II. The
saddest part about the summer girl Is
that her life is brief Coming just at
the season when the roses die TO avoid
the heat of the dog days, the eud OF
August sees her glory well nigh gone.
And when she has gone, whittier mas

swers not to their call. The leaves
whisper On the mountain tops, but
catch no echo of her song. Like Q
strain of vanishing melody she has
served her passing purpose and gone
to herald the coming of the quickly
following leaves. But she is pleasant
while she is here, and only fools try
to solve the problem of to-morrow's
pleasure.

Too Stingy for Comfort.

Talking about stinginess, said a
from Ohio, Il know of a
case down our way that takes the
berry off the bush. It's true story,
tc0; none o. yer made up yarns. Ia
the town where / live there's a Mrs.
A, the widow OF a manufacturer,
who left her big fortune, She has
an income Of $35, 600 year, which
ought 10 be enough to keep her from
want. Just after strawberries came
into the market, and when they were
selling at about is cents box, she
was taking dinner at neighbours.
They had strawberries.
"'Oh, says Mrs. A. but | am
passionately fond Of Strawberries. I'd
have them every day if could afford
it.
'She wasn't joking either. She
was as mucn in earnest as if she had
been tae poorest woman in the state.
One of her hired girls says she makes
the cook skim the grease off the dish
water and use it to fry potatoes with.
That may be a SANDER, but it is fact
that she and her son in-law killed her
dead husbands favorite horse, which
had been in the family many years,
and which he had been so fond Of,
just because he couldn't work and
cost few cents 4 day to keep. The
dead mans favorite dog, that had
hunted with him for years, and which
he requested to be always kept, was
sold for SO When | consider that
these people are worth millions it
makes me satisfied to be poor. I'll be
darned if it don't"

A Disgnsted Man.

Peter Curto, recently discharged
from the Nevada state prison, feels
that he has been misused and defraud
ed thereby, and protests against being
given his freedom against his will.
When Judge Field was in Carson, a
few days ago, presiding in the United
States district court, Curto's case came
up before HIM on a writ of habeas
corpus, and he ordered the discharge
of the prisoner on technical grounds
Internationally, under recent decis
ions of the United States supreme
court. Curto had been a prisoner for
about two years, and wanted to stay
forty days longer or until the time Of
his sentence should expire, but he was
remerselessly turned out. According
to The Carson Appeal the poor fellow
made the following remarks on the
subject;
II was learning the shoemaker's
trade when the id lawyer started in
to interfere. IN few mouths more l
would have been able TO cut and make
a shoe all By myself. / had no desire
to get out until l could learn the
trade, and then l would have had
something to start with. Had l been
able to make shoes in the first place
[ would not have been passing coun-
terfeit money. When q man goes to
prison aud wants to learn a trade l
think he should be allowed to stay
until he has mastered the trade. As
for myself. you see, l have spent
nearly two years there fer nothing.
l was Just getting along nicely when
that cursed order came from Judge
Field. l suppose he meant well
enough, but it's rough on me-"
