BY FRANCES sHAFFER.

Someone told a story the other day,
SO true and full OF neaning that It seems
worth while to pass IT along, just for the
sake of the lesson 1t carries.
II was all about woman. young and
very fair. who had made one grievous
mistake in her life, a mistake that had
never ceased to pay its toll, because the
world would not let 1t cease.
She made her false step and she paid
the price, but she faced her future un-
fiinchingly, determined that that one sorry
Tblunder should not ruin her life, even
though there might be much of loneliness
in It, much of reproach and lack OF SYM
pathy, too. 1t was her aim to build her
life right full of beauty and to make
every act in the years TO come annul
and atone for the one fateful period.
She would not let it continue to hurt
her, but rather let 1t teach her and help
her to grow.
And It did. For, as the years went by.
with her books, her thoughts, and her
work. she went on growing stronger,
richer in mind, bigger in heart. and all
the more worthy Of love. She lived much
by herself, never stepping outside in the
broader ways unless II was at the call
of someone vino needed the sympathy,
the understanding, and the human love
that were hers in exquisite degree.

REFUGEES REPORTED
STRANDED At nome
Revenue-Cutter Bear viii Bring Some
of Them Back to the United
States.
STEAMER COMPANIES BLAMED

Sharp criticism Of the methods en-
ployed by the Pacific steamship COM
panies in building up their passenger
service during the spring and summer
months between the Western Coast
points and Alaska was voiced by revenue
cutter officers yesterday at the Treasury
Department. More than 500 refugees are
awaiting transportation to the United
States from Nome, Alaska They are re-
ported in destitute circumstances by rea-
son OF the storm that visited that city
week ago. The revenue cutter Bear
will bring some of these people back to
the United States.
oficials here say that fully half of the
number are men who were induced to
go to Alaska in search of gold through
the alleged lurid advertisements circu-
lated by the steamship companies. The
advertisements, II is said, stated that
gold could be picked up on the beach
and that in some sections fortunes had
been made in a single day from finds
along the Alaskan coast.
Byron Newton, Assistant Secretary Of
the Treasury, and Capt Bertholf, Of the
revenue cutter service, denied the state
ment that revenue cutters had to be sent
to points in Alaska to bring back the
starving and destitute gold hunters who
had been stranded there through the al
legged Misrepresentation OF the steamship
II was stated on good authority. how
ever. that revenue cutters have to be dis
patched to those waters about this time
every year to bring back to the States
the disilIusioned goldseekefs stranded
there
The cutters Bear and Unalga are now
in Alaska, and have mace preparations
to the States. Additional assistance must
be sent by the Treasury Department,
If all the destitute are to be re-
lieved.

Biographers.

Reare"
or what we know OF Judith Shakes
peare We have good occasion to believe
that she was equally capable and bril-
liant woman. Judith in 1916. when thirty
one years of age, mOried Thomas
Quincy, a vintner OF STAFFORD Thomas
Quiney's father was an old friend OF
Judith's father. That Thomas Quincy
was a man of some distinction in his
town is proved by the fact that he took
part In the municipal affairs and acted
as counsellor from 1917 to 1928, when he
became chamberlain. The Quineys lived
in a house in Bridge Street called '"The
Cage" which is still extant. It is a
singular fact that the only letter extant
to William Shakespeare was written by
the father OF his son-in-law. This letter
is now to be seen in the library at New
Place. Judith lived to be seventy-six
yers old and survived her husband, her
children and all her relations. When
she died In 1861, she was buried in Trinity
Church. The last of Shakespeare's de-
scendants was Elizabeth Hall, the only
child of Susannah and DIR. Hall. She
was born on February 2l. 1908. and died
in her sixty-fourth yer in 1859 William
shakespeare ~bequeathed to this grand
child the whole Of his plate, with the ex-
ception of the broad silver gilt bowl"
which he left to Judith. That Shakes
peare's daughter. Susannah. did not rear
her daughter in illiteracy is proved by
the fact that Elizabeth Hall married on
April %, 1696. Thomas Nash, who had
been a student at Lincoln's Inn. He
was a resident Of Stratford and a man
of property, owning houses In Henley
Street, very near to New Place. Eliza
beth's husband was 'one Of the largest
contributors in Stratford to the cause of
Charles I. That Shakespeare himself
was a friend OF the Nash family is proved
by the fact that in mis- will he left money
to the father and brother OF Thomas
Nash with which TO buy memorial rings
When Thomas Nash died in 1871 he was
buried in the chancel of Trinity Church
next to William Shakespeare. Two years
after Nash's death Elizabeth again
married. this time becoming the second
wife of John Barnard, who, in 1851. was
knighted by Charles IL Lady Barnard.
granddaughter of Shakespeare. and last
of his heirs, died in 1864, and was buried
in Arlington Church.
All these facts Rove rather con-
ciusiyely that not only Shakespeare's
daughters, but his favorite grandchild
were far from being the iIliterates that
so many have supposed.

Makes Us Wonder.

And as her story died away, it made one
listener wonder how many more Of US
have been harsh, -unsympethetic, and
very poor judges OF the gold and the dross
We find as We travel along. How many
lives. both men and women, have been
crushed because the world would not let
them forget?
There are not very many who have the
courage to stand up in the face Of re-
buke, and to create a beautiful life
fabric once an ugly color has crept in.
Because, make It as beautiful as they
may, their world persistently looks at the
old, ugly spot and pays little heed to the
new or the painstaking effort to make
Il Alright.
And this little life-narrative fits in with
many another corner Of life that we have
observed. where neither tolerance nor
ordinary human kindness have thrown
out a crumb OF comfort or extended a
hand Of help.
For ourselves, II is mighty fine and
strong to keep our standards inviolate,
or at least, as true as we can.
And as for others, IL is not too much to
hope that they will do the same.
But II has a ring of the fine and the

ALL AGOG OVER
FASHION DISPLAYS

In New York all are agog over the new
fashion displays. 1t cannot be said that
there is any really strikingfy new note.

every possible way, not alone as an en-
tire garment. but also as trimming In
touches and in bits.
On evening gowns are to be seen tiny,
little edges of fur that are extremely
effective IN contrast with the lace, gauze,
and the like, and not a few handsome
costumes show fur finishing the sleeves
in place Of cuffs and forming the small
regulation collar at the back while the
lapels are of the material. Fur used In
such ways is unquestionably handsome
and attractive, but happily not the great
mass of womankind does not represent
lavish outlay.
That extremely handsome fur sets and
fur coats will be worn by those who can
afford luxury undeniably is true. but the
trimming of fur is unQuestionably smart
and since our climate is changeabls
one, many women TO whom the item of
cost is not an important one. choose suits
that are lightly trimmed with fur from
the standpoint of comfort
In New York, at least, the zero point
is seldom touched, and many OF the fur
coats seem desirable only as a part OF
an arctic equipment. Fur-trimmed cos
tunes are practical as well as handsome,
and almost every known skin will be

sourht ont by Few.

The few-very few they were-who
sought her out and were admitted to her
home, knew that thousA--her life was
devoid of the natural interests Of friends
and Of normal pursuits. her mind was
full of interests and she was just the
type OF woman who ought to have hosts
of friends, for her own true sake. Every
thing about her was expressive of a
luminous life, of depth of character. and
OF all that makes for beautiful woman
hood.
Whenever it chanced, as II sometimes
did, that she was asked to give OF the
things that she had in abundance, she
gave right royalty, far more than she
was asked. and the world, as 1t went on
about her. knew that II there was a
blunder in her past, she was making 1t
a stepplng-stone - something higher.
1t knew, but Il looked upon her In
silence. For as the years went by, she
lived in the shadows OF her story. alone;
and her critical. condemning world went
on, quite satisfied with itself and its
virtues.
In time, she sickened and died; and
on the day CT her funeral the poorer folk
among the villagers fiocked In to honor
her name, to tell OF her unobtrusive char
ity. her unfailing sympathy. and Of the
generous heart and big nature back OF Il.
And the children came to add their mite
OF tribute, for to them she had freely
opened her gates. It was not one who
spoke in kindly words: II was all. for the
whole village knew that when her life
went out q really beautiful and q helpful
light had been extinguished.
And yet -. -
In return for all that she did, all that
she gave, and for all her own gracious
womanhood, grown far away from the
past, II never had occurred to them to
reach out the hand OF fellowship.
