Cheering Up tho Invalid.

Mrs. Barr. an elderly Scotchwoman
had been seriously i'll for weeks, dur.
ing which time even tha members Of
her immediate family ad been ex-
cluded from the sickroom. At last,
however. she SO longed to see her rela.

admit them. one at time When
the moment for Mr.. Bars visit ar
rived the trained nurse cautioned him
against showing too much emotion
over his wife's changed appearance.
what you must do" said the nurse,
sis to cheer her up. You must tell her
he" much better she ia looking, what
nice color she has in her cheeks. and
how bright her eyes are. Above all
things you must be cheerful"
Mr.. Barr promised faithfully to say
the proper things: but when he APP
preached the bedside and beheld the
ritifiI ravages that illness had made
in Mrs. Bars once plump countenance,
he became SO agitated that he forgot
the nurses caution and exclaimed in
the rich Scotch brogue that strong
emotion always called forth:
oh Maggie, Maggie. woman! whaur
wad ye like to burrit?''

ssciety measures distances. Even at the
summer haunts as tar as NarragaEsett
and Bar Harbor there is greater dullness
than usual. But here is the real fact:
When Everybody" is "out OF town"
New York still has population OF some
millions and there are human beings
there who look very much like the sort
of people who are called Society" In
winter. There is not only the society
that is seen at the roof gardens (as ii it
had just dropped into town. and at the
cafes, but the front steps society, which
is legion, and which is capable of pre-
senting very pretty appearance. We
catch giimpses Of it even on Madison ave-
nue-yes, even on Fifth avenue. An
American Lady" writing In the London
Telegraph, has been saying that the
southern girl when she comes to New
York asks where DO you do your court
ing?" Nobody answers that it Is done
very frequently on the front steps in
summer, yet such an answer would not
he so absurd as might at first appear.
Certain front steps are not very bril-,
liantly lighted. One may gather an inn
preston of girl IN white dress, such
as the southern girl wears on her court
ing veranda, but the details are hard t.
make out. Hands and arms are inds-
cipherable. There is NO reason why >
case might not be argued to . finish IN
such surroundings, always presumins
that the occupants of the house are well
trained
Quite aside from the social apr ear
ances that are reflected in print New
York has summer society that Is exc
tremely interesting and admirably pic
tqresque. Its political society, a stratum
by itself. will be gay enough and more
or less near at hand in this interval be-
fore the rear campaign. The restaurants
and roof gardens never held so many
people, never displayed so many elabo-
rately dressed women. The park is full
of automobiles. There is smartness OF
dress everywhere. At the heachesthera
