THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY AUGUST ?, 1sTWELvE PAGES

through the the Adirondack pines last Au-
gust says the New York Times, and there
was W fe too busy to be quite 50 lonely
who ought to have heeI with him, but was
not. Here is the story:
There went in early July from hot in
land city to a small village among the hills
in New Jersey a little woman-a clergy
mans wife-for rest from her winters
work in her husbands parish. She took
board in the large summer boarding
| house of a widow from Philadelphia,
who in this way tided over the dull season
of her city establishment. Mrs. Rector had
scarcely arrived before her tender heart
began to be stirred with pity for her care
worn and overworked landlady. Within
forty-eight hours she was striving to tighten
| her burdens, chiefly by coaxing aud inter
esting. oJt of the busy mothers way, three
rather tiresome and somewhat neglected
| children.

| when she came, one morning, upon her hos

wiping away a tear all together. The let

Maine and told Of the early arrival of a
third sister from Callfornla-one who had
not been east in ten years-and they both
so hoped some way could be arranged for
| her to join them. Such was the letter. the
tear was for the desire and complete inabil-

! dinner.
The rest is soon told. 1t took day and a
night for Mrs. Rector to wrestle with self
but the next morning she went to the land
lady and volunteered her services as head
of the establishment while she should go TO
| Malne TO find in cheerful compauionship a nd
| freedom from work the rest aud strength
she badly needed 20 keep up her labors
| This space is too limited TO tell of the argu-
pents to be met and answered, the obstacles
overcome before the poor woman could
| force herself to take the pleasure offered,
| but in the end Mrs. Rector conquered. She
would not let her husband come to her. but
sent him, by letter, direct to the Adiron-
dacks when his vacation began, TO spend
August there while she spent the same
sultry month wrestling with accounts, over
seeing none too capable servants, and evolv-
ing order generally out OF the chaos of run
ming a summer boarding house.
This true story is chronicled to refu.e the
more or less common talk about the degen-
Grafton Of the race. Surely here is an in
stance of sacrifice and self-abnegation
worthy the palmiest days of chivalry or
| Puritanism.

An eminent doctor has a new and sure

mother. Then she begged the doctor to let
her go home TO kiss James and the baby.
Inc doctor was grave and gentle. He told
ner that, while in her mothers time there
aad been 20 means OF carrying OF the fatal
surplus OF this fluid, 1t was now within the
control Of science. He took her into

Pretty feet and well turned ankles, says
Ella Wheeler Wilcox In the World, are q
necesslty-to the summer girl. 1t is only
the wall flowers aud chaperons who notice
the dancers feet in a winter ballroom, and
many a reigning belle succeeds in hiding
her un beautiful feet from view in parlor
and promenade by adrolt dressing and
posing. But the summer girl cannot con-
ceal her feet or ankles, for she must sit in
hammocks, step into boats, and perhaps
expose herself in bathing costu mes. At
tractive feet are, therefore, an immense ad-
vantage, if not an absolute necessity, to her
career.
Naturally curling hair goes long way
toward making the summer girl a success,
whether blonde or br Inette. The girl who
can emerge from the ocean bath or return
from hot promenade with her hair kink-
ing and curling about her brow and neck
owes a large debt to nature. But even II
her hair does not curl she can be thankful
and hopeful if her ear-locks do not straggle
in limp aud soggy way.
Damp, straight masses OF thick haIr clus-
tered about the brow often give pretty
face O newer charm than carefully arranged
frizzes; but the girl who is afflicted with
scolding locks which refuse to grow beyond
a certain undesirable length, and which
lose their curl at the first breath OF hu-
midlty-that girl need never hope to reign
summer queen.
No sentiment could survive the sight OF
those uumanageable locks, tapping over a
dress collar or spreading over eyes aud
