1t is born in every woman TO wish to be as
attractive as possible. Men call it vanity,
but that term is erroneous. for such a senti-
ment is only fostered by the compliments Of
others, the flattering minor and the hundred

toward the end. Vanity is self-satisfaction,
but the desire TO be attractive only proves
tina. a woman Is not entirely pleased with
herself, but wishes for q polishing and

what she has to the best advantage, instead
of a sense of content that bsspeaks her own
good opinion of her perfectiOns. When a
girl adopts plan of self-improvement she

figure, but we can in confidence betray a
beauty secret that deals not in cosmetics or
lotions. that does not tend 10 injure the skin
or fatigue the body. yet which adds more

This wonderful attraction giver Is the
cultivation OF taste for good reading.
Nothing so influences the manners and

FAIR WOMEN.

ness Displayed for Others.

fnllauelphl3 Times.
So few very beautiful women consider Il
worth their while to be gracious They rely
so entirely on their charms of person to at
tract that they do not put themselves out or
exert themselves TO please other than by
their beauty. This Is a great mistake, for
though they may rule for season by the
power that feminine loneliness always ex-
erts, their court will soon be narrowed to
the very few who are willing to serve out
adulation with every sentence with no
hope of entertainment In return.
The spell of gracious w0manhood, how
ever, lasts as long as life remains, and the
charm depends not upon the beauty of face
or figure, but upon grace Of mind that puts
self In the background and endeav0rs to
bring out the best and brightest In all those
with whom 1t comes In contact.
The celebrated women who have been ad-
mred TO their latest day were not renowned

The woman who can become interested In

who can make that other feel that his or

that would have necessitated a hundred

It was in August of last year. and the
south winds burning breath seemed TO dry
the blood in their veins. Overhead the sun
seemed like a ball of incandescent heat set
IL a vault of bronze. Every member of the
party was nearly Frustrated, and the horses
were exhausted, but the sun was sinking
behind the SerrRs, aud they were also
nearing he spot where they knew they
would obtain relief.
The youngest and strongest man in the
party was Archie Ferguson, and lie kept
ahead of the others. He thought he knew

when he came TO certain hummoek turned

reached the edge of sand and the sun had
almost disappeared, but the south wind
continued to roll its fiery breeze to the
northward. In a short time Ferguson looked
ahead as be felt he must be near the place
at which be was aiming. but was surprised
TO find that everything wore most IN
familiar appearance. He looked back and
as far as his eye could reach through the
fast gathering shadows there was not a
sign OF the rest OF the party.
He saw that he had made a mistake, but
felt certain that he could 60 back easy
enough to the hummOck where he turned

friends had taken.

tion he had come, but the animal very

to the waters edge, and along which he
could see, if his knowledge OF woodcratt did
not deceive him, that the moose was in the
habit OF passing.
In this he was correct, for the guide had
not been there more than an hour waen he
heard the sound OF some animal approach
ing, and peering cautiously through the
bushes he saw COW moose making for the
pool. The animal shifted the air few
times as she passed within dozen PAGES
of the hunter. but otherwise did not show
signs OF alarm. She was soon In the water
Kidding herself of the flies and quenching
her thirst.
While the moose was disporting herself
Annance left his position behind the bush
and walked few steps toward her. and
whenever she turned he would stand per-
fectly motonless.
BY repeating this operation several times
he managed to reach the edge OF the lake
without alarming the moose, AS soon as
the animal showed any signs of leaving the
water the guide retreated a few steps.
Once or twice did the moose raise her head
and look at him, only, however, to resume
her clumsy frolics.
Presently the moose made toward the
shore, and Annance concealed himself be-
hind the bush again. AT the edge Of the
lake the animal turned to take last look
and shake tbe spray from her nose. Then
she advanced slower ND the sloping bank.
When opposite the guide she shifted some
thing, stopped. and looked around.
That was the guides chance, and he
knew 1t. The critical moment had arrived.
and with one quick but silent movement be
was by the animals side. She did not mo We
except to turn her head and look at him.
Annance kept near her headquarters, well
knowing that il he got in front Of the
moose he would not stand much chance
should she become ugly. Cautiously bend
ing forward, the hunter stroked her sides
and allowed her 10 turn and smell him.
After few seconds, seeing the moose did
not appear frightened. Annance, with little
more difficulty than is experienced with
many domestic animals, proceeded to fill a
small pail he had brought along with rich,
yellow milk. Returning to camp, he pro-
duced the milk when breakfast was ready
in the morning. having kept the pail in the
water over night, much to the establishment
OF the guides and sportsmen.
People who visit Moosehead often hear
Charles Annance spoken OF as the dairy
man." and the foregoing story Is what gives
him the nickname.
