OF the owners of these are Americans. Many
other Americans have homes on the St. Law

these, and George M. Pullman Is another. Mr..
Pullman is Catholic in his recreations.
He owns an island on the St. Lawrence and
has beautiful home there. He owns a fiat
In New York City. He has a very fine cot
tage at Long Branch. Not satisfied with the
the choice of these three resorts, Mr. Pullman

One mans meat is another mans
poison. The recreation some men take
in summer would be death to many
others. Summer recreation depends
largely on physique. 1t depends also
on temperament Some men find de-
light in a fashionable watering place.
Some men want to spend the summer
days as far from civilization as pos
sible.
Two examples of these contrasting
types are Senator Brice, of Ohio, and
Senator Frye, of Maine. Mr. Brice
seems to live for society. One emil
nent politician ventured the opinion
two years ago that Mr.. Brice's dinners
and receptions were given with a view
to the Ohio senator's political advance
ment. In what relation of cause and
effect you look on these two is a matter
of individual Judgment. Is Mr.. Brice
entertaining lavishly because he wants
to make friends, or is he entertaining
because his official position demands
it?
Neither of these is probable. Mr..
Brice goes in for society because he
likes 1t. This year he has taken a cot
tage at Newport. This is a recreation
possible to very rich man only. Mr..
Br1ce is a very rich man. He main
tains all the year around homes in
Ohio, New York and the District of
Columbia. Last spring Mr. Brice's
wife and daughters went to London
for the gay season there They are
back now and are living in their rented
house at Newport, where they give
dinners and teas and other entertain
ments to their fashionable friends.
They have their horses and carriages.
