Can anything excel in daintiness the first
SHOWS of the season? They fall gently now
before my eyes on the quiet hillside. The
little wood which girdles it looks soft as
richly toned engraving through the gauze
of the fakes. The place is still as the quiet
after death, but wrapped in warmth and
comfort deep as the silence. Summer days
hardly have anything sweeter than this
quiet of fulfllment and zest of work. OF
all conditions to accomplish real study or
mental work give me the unfettered quiet
of a country house set in December SHOWS.
The blending of primitive and modern
comfort is pleasant where an opening door
lets in the cold, exquisite sweetness of the
dead wood spices lingering in DRIFT of sweet
fern, bayberry and dry vernsl grasses which
perfume the snow banks, the subdued, rich
coloring of the brown-grav woods, shot with
russett, the yellows of bark and willows and
somberly fresh evergreens to meet the eve in
place OF the brick walls and iron pipes of
the streets.
WINTER IN THE COUNTRY.
A house warm with wood fires and fur
mace from one end to the other, where the
glad sun looks into five windows in the sit
ting room, with as many tables heaped with
periodicals and manuscripts. plenty of new
books and old, easy going chairs and
comfort-loving lounges, the city at
ones elbow, its glow lighting the
sky by night, the house to ones
self, with unlimited control of every hour
for working to the best advantage-is not
this to be envied by the sincere brain toll
ers? You rise when rested; If 1t has been a
wakeful night you take the good of five
hours sleep after the first cock crow, and no
frown awaits you at the late breakfast, the
coffee is as hot and the mufhns as fresh as II
you had dragged yourself aching down at a
canonical hour.
Perhaps you wake to see the red tires
burn in the East while the Morning Star
grows winter and the valley takes exquisite
changes In vapor and level light. A whirr
OF soft wings at the lattice comes ike an
audaclous GOOD morning, or Dlrd Mes In
