The unnh In HenIth

Let us shake hands with a man, and
we VIII tell you something about his
health. The firm. hearty handshake OF
a sincere man may be rather rough, so
that one is taught he has grip. but It
indicates stamina. While denoting alb
sence OF tact and refinement. It points
to physical strength. The fiabby hand
that returns no pressure belongs TO the
person who has no great strength OF
body or mind. The quick, nervous
handshake OF an excitable, nervous
temperament, and its opposite, the
nerveless, passive one. belong to per-
sons In ill health. The hand that
threatens 70 collapse or give means
fear. The feel Of the hand called mag
netic indicates health and kindness and
a desire TO help others. In many ways
we may decide character by the hand
as well as by the brain.--London Doc

To soften water for laundry pur-

HAD BEEN THE TRUSTING PLACE WITH SUSAN.

/ turesque in their way as the noun
taineers of eastern Tennessee. Per
haps some day novelist may find in
the place and people as they then were
the material for a story that shall
live.
| Giles Blossom was a guide, as had
been his father before him. He was
born within sight Of the towering peak
of forest-clad Marcy. Blossom was a
rugged fellow. The saying is homely
and old, but OF this man eminently
true, his heart was in the right place.
He was 25 years old, and had been a
| guide through the whole northern
woods since he was boy of Is.
Susan Hale was the daughter of a
guide who lived on the other slope
of the mountain. Sometimes Giles
met her. There was not too much So
ciety in the wilderness. From the
/ breaking up Of the ice in the spring
until the deer season closed in the fall
there was occupation and some com
partnership for the woodsmen. 1t came
from the outside world and was made
up wholly of men who, though city
bred, loved the wood for the woods
sake and for the wild sport which they
afforded
From the time that some few revo-
lutionary soldiers and their wives had
entered the wilderness and made their
homes there had been MARRYING and
giving IN marriage in the scattered
families Of these people who lived so
close TO natures heart. Giles Blossom
loved Susan Hale and her father smiled
on the sutton. As for the girl herself
she was trained to obedience. "I like
you, Giles" she said. "You are differ
ent from some Of the others. Jim
Crawford wants to marry me, too. He
cuts the Threats of the deer when they
break through the crust in winter. !
heard you say once that was murder
and that every creature should he
given a chance for his life Giles, I
think a man who would kill the deer
that way would beat his wife. It's in
him"
1t isn't long story this, the story
of the shadow of Mount Marcy. It was
fixed that Giles and Susan were to 90
over to the Saranac to the little EMS
copal mission, and there to be married
when the snow was melting from the
crest of Marcy.
This was at the time of the beg;n-
ming Of the end of the wilderness of
the north woods. The spur of a rail
road bad been pushed through into the
heart of the region. The woodsmen
at first hailed the advent of the road
with joy. at will bring us more par
ties to guide and more money for our
purses" they said. There were some
few thinking ones among them, how
ever, who said: "The railroad means
that soon we will have no woods into
which blind man could not find his
way"
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1902-07-19

The railroad came. Traffic had not
yet opened, but one day locomotive
drew the private palace car of one of
the roads directors on to a siding at
the end of the spur track. The director
with some friends had come on a tour
of inspection of the road and was to
spend some time in hunting and fish
ing. The directors son was with the
party. He went on a hunting trip
alone, taking Susan Hale's father for
guide. He stayed for several days at
the Hales' woodland home. The city
bred man found that there was other
game in the woods besides deer
In Susan Hale's eyes this newcomer
was not as other men were. II was
done i'll and done quickly. Susan Hale
disappeared. All that could be found
out was that the directors son had
secured permission to have the locomo-
tive take the car back to the nearest
main line connection, then to return
without him.
One year later Giles Blossom thread
ed trail down the side of Marcy and
came to an opening from which he
could see the roof of old George Hale's
log house. This opening had been his
trysting place with Susan. How many
times he had been there during the
year that was gone Blossom himself
alone knew. The sun was touching
Marcy's tops with it's last rays. Aher-
NIT thrush was singing its vesper
hymn. There were lines in the guides
face. He looked down toward the spot
where through a break in the fence
about the Hale clearing Susan had been
accustomed to appear. He saw some
thing that made his heart beat. He
looked again. Susan Hale was coming
across the opening through the woods.
She saw him and came toward him.
She had steeled herself for the task.
"Giles," she said, ST am here again."
The guide looked at her. "Where
is he, your husband?" he said.
The girls face went scarlet. ST
went away with him, Giles" she said,
''but 1 wasn't taken in marriage.
