MSS ALGGR'S
ENGAGEMENT,

When Charles Burran Pike. the popu-
lar young lawyer and society man OF
Chicago. leads Miss Frances Alger to
the altar in the fall, it will be union OF
brains and beauty and the means OF
bringing together in close relationship
two of the best known and most in
fiuential families in the northwest.
Charles Burial Pike is the son of Eu-
gene 5. Pike, one Of Chicago's most en-
ergetic and wealthy citizens. Miss
Frances Alger is the youngest daughter
of the secretary OF war, General Alger
Of Detroit.
The engagement only so recently an
nounced, dates back some months. on
account of the objection of the Algers it
has been kept a profound secret, having
leaked out only by accident. In reality
the young couple have been engaged
Cince January and are to be welded
pr badly in September, although the ex-
act date of the marriage festivities has
not yet been decided upon.
When young Pike takes his bride TO
Chicago, society circles in that city will
gain leader whose beauty, tact and
winsome charm are now the byword of
The diplomatic circles in Washington.
In the large new house which Gen
street, Washington, Miss Frances and
her elder sister, Miss Fay Alger. have
gathered about them already in their
brief sojourn in the capital a devoted
and exclusive circle. Miss Frances is
not only one Of the most popular young
women in the cabinet coterie, but she is
the especial beloved companion and ia
vorite of Mrs. Mckinley. Not a day
passes that Miss Alger does not pay her
morning call on the sweet mistress of
the White House, taking with her an
armful Of flowers TO lay at that gentle
woman's feet. The beautiful relation
ship which exists between them reveals
the depth OF character i'm each.
on the recent trip made by President
Mckinley and the presidential party to
the Tennessee exposition at Nashville
Miss Alger was one of the young MEM
bers of the group who attracted the
most attention. Her devotion to Mrs.
Mckinley was especially noted during
this journey 10 and from Nashville.

scene the gossips OF the hotel announce
that she laces. AS IL that were a crimel
The normal American girl has a small
waist. Nature generally gives her a
good figure. but all the women who
have lost their figures through age or
carelessness insist upon downing the
one woman whose shape Is good. In the
old, old days the scandalmonger used
to have to sit i'm the stocks. What a
pity they don't revive that custom now!
Women say the most horrible things
about women without fiinching, and
the summer sun, which makes all the
weeds spring up. seems to bring the
scandalmonger to the fore with them.
It's none OF your business and it's none
OF mine where a woman gets her
clothes, but that is a favorite question
of the disseminator OF news at the
summer hotel. It's none of your busi-
ness and it's none of mine who and
what people are as long as they behave
themselves properly in public and don't
insist upon forcing their acquaintance
on you or me. My friend, we kneel be-
side sinners in church, we meet them
in a great many other places. and we
may be thankful II our own account on
the book OF life is as straight as that of
some OF the so called wicked people.
The scandalmonger elects herself a
saint. / never hear a woman talking
about other women, announcing that
she knows they are fast women, that
she knows they are bad women or that
she knows they are drunkards, that
don't feel like asking her If she hasn't
gone in an extremely bad set to have
gained all this information. Good wo-
men take ii for granted that all other
women are good. 1t is only the women
who have gone through the mill who
can carefully pick out the chaff from
the wheat. However, it's much better
in your summer book to blot out the
memories of the disagreeable people
and try TO remember, and remember
well. the lesson that the summer time
teaches you. IL In possible that speech
may be silver. but silence is certainly
gold-silence as to the disagreeable, ST.
lence about your own and other peo-
ple's affairs.
Have you or / any right to gaze
curiously at or even speak about eyes
that look as IL they had been shedding
tears?
Have you or a right TO wonder in
speech whether two people who are
married try TO ignore each other?
Have you or l a right to take IL for
granted that somebody's wrong simply
because we haven't had explained to
us the something which is right?
No, we haven't. Socially we have but
one right in this world, and that is to
mind our own business. l don't mean
that in its nasty hard sense, In the
sense of never doing a kind thing be-
cause we are so wrapped up in our
selves l mean it in the sense Of at
tending to our own affairs and not dis
cussing or interfering with those Of our
neighbor. The right way to mind your
own business is TO follow the golden
rule and TO do unto others as you would
that others should do unto you. That's
a rule that works well either in sum-
mer or winter. works well for the
whole world or just for you and for
