moss Of Women,

Within the last week two well.knovn
beautiful, rich society girls. both
young. both popular, with all doors to
which society has the key hung open
before them, have elected to 20 into An
East End hospital and scrub floors for
pauper invalids. Perhaps they will
not stick to 1t; the important thing ia
that they want to try It.
The fact Is that we are no longer
sumciently satisfied with beauty to

being good to look at. Thirty or forty
years ago people came from every
part OF the world to see GeorRiana
Lady Dudley, Mrs. Langtry and Mrs.
Cornwallis-West walk In tho park. At
an earlier date the beautiful Cummings
caused riots, so great was the anxiety
to see them. Anne of Austria drew
people from the most inaccessible cor.

sible world, who made their way with
year-long journeys to Paris. caught n
glimpse OF her entering her Carriage
and went home again saying they had
seen loveliness itself. Today we
would not cross the road to see a pret.

30 many Of them. Indeed, beautiful
women Of today are moro admired nv

ALL ALONE IN THE STORM

Il was bitter cold. The snow fell
thickly, and, driven BY the wind. Il

He stood not far from the winding
suowbound road, his face turned to-
ward the highway. A forlorn object
In that great storm.
His old felt hat, damned roughly on
his head. but Unprotected his face and
ears from the chilly blasts. He wore
no uvercoat. only. q light and much
frayed jacket. more lifted. indeed. for

were unprotected by gloves. while hiS)

Inside the great farm, close By, tho
lights blazed merrily. and through the
windows, from which tho shades were
drawn, could be seen many young poo

merry country iparty-youth and
laughter.
And now through the storm others
make their way to the farmhouse.
They are bundled UP warm and CON-

Remember THE LOVED ONES
Pathetic Religious Ceremony That 10
Observed by People Of the
Isle Of UShant.

In the Island Of Ushant-the isle
OF Fear"-there exists q custom prohA
ably unknown In any other part OF
Christendom. When . native dies
abroad or Is lost at sea, his relatives
have . small wax Cross made, some
seven inches long. This 10 solemnly
taken to the church and presented to
the priest, who deposits 1t in q box,
shaped like cinerary urn, that hangs
on tho south side Of the altar Of st.
Joseph. This is called the PRO Ella
Cross, and 10 supposed to stand for
the spirit Of the dead. These menaG-
rial symbols are allowed to accui
late in the box till the next church
mission comes round. AS these revi-
val services are held only once in ey.
cry four or five years, the number OF
crosses may be very considerable. A
day Is then set apart for their solemn
interment. It Is tho great day, the
climax OF the mission. Tho church is
draped In black and crowded with q
mourning congregation, many OF
whom break out into loud wailing
The crosses are brought from their
urn In solemn procession, o requiem
mass is said over them, and then they
are carried to the churchyard, tho
iron door Of the tomb Is unlocked, and
they are inferred with full honors.
Throughout the year hardly q day
passes but some pious soul comes to
sprinkle the tomb with holy water
and say prayer before 1t for the
dead.-Wide World Magazine.
