On a hotgg peeing?“ summer a New York
womanpused' hrough the city on route
from her summer home in northern Ver-
mont to the seashore for a fortnight's
stay. Needing some gloves, she went to
sshop at Which she usually dealt, and
while making her selections noticed the
pallor and evident exhaustion of the
young woman who served her, a sales-
woman she had often encountered in the
place before.
“You look tired," she commented. “I
presume your vacation will soon come."
“I have none,” replied the girl briefly.
“Absurd, " was the indignant response.
"You can easily be spared at this dull
season." »
“Oh, yes, but I can’t aflord to go
away. I have no place to go except
where I must pay board, and that is out
of the question.”
The customer was wealthy and a wom-
an of generous impulses. She hit her lip
and thought a moment. Then she looked
again at the girl, whose air and manner
showed lassitnde and weariness.
“Could you get a fortnight‘s leave at
once if you had a place to go?“ she asked.
and the girl thought she could, where
upon in a brief conversation with the
proprietor the matter was arranged, and
the next morning the young glove seller
turned her back on the hot and dusty
city, ticketed through tO/lfiir patron’ s
lovelysummer home.
Meantime her kind hearted hostess had
sent a dispatch to her husband, whom
she had left in possession with several
male friends to enjoy the hunting and
fishing, announcing her portegee’s ar-
rival and its import. Accustomed to his
wife‘s warm hearted ways and always
willing to second them, he saw to it that
the young stranger was received and
cared for. His wife‘s carriage was placed
daily at her disposal, and two weeks of
thorough rest were provided for her.
She was in her place in the shop again
when her benefactor passcd through on
her homcward way, and the good of her
vacation was most satisfactorily appar-
ent. Which is a story absolutely true.—

HIIP “'ua Superstitions.
There is a younglady in the census
oflico who is a smart, clever and well
informed girl gcncrally, but she. is as
superstitious as may bc.

Arriving at 11 swell hotel she “as us-
signcd a mom. She had unpmked h1r
things, attircd hcrsclf in a most attract-
ive dress and was about to go down to
dinner when she, discovered that the
number of her apartment was 13. With-
out a moment‘s delay she hastily dis—
robed and put on her traveling dross.
repackcd hcr trunk, and hurrying down
tothe oil‘icc directed the clcrk to send
for an express wagon to take her lug-
gage to unothcr~hotcl. When the as-
tonished young man rcqucstcd a reason
for her sudden determination. she told
him. H1) mid another room would ho
placed at hcr disposal. but she replied
that she “could not sleep under the roof
after such a warning as that," and oil
she went to anothcr liosiclry.
Next day shc niadc hcr way to Jack-
son's bathing liouso to take a hot bath.

The “and of [may Managers.
The sessions of the board of lady men-
acers or the World‘s fair have been
quite an interesting feature of the great
W W
Neat to. her an elder], but very vig-
orous’ lady, whose bloc hair refuses to
turn gray and hangs in curls behind her
Mrs. Isabella Beecher Hooker, sister of
Henry Ward Beecher, and a very bright
and interesting woman. She is always
to be found' in her place at the left of
the front row’ and keeps asharp outlook
on all that is transpiring.
There aretwo little managers who are
known as “the tigers," and their mission
appears to be to contest and wrangle
over every question. This tall, hand-
some woman. who is remarkably well
versed in parliamentary law, is Mrs.
Eagle, wife of “the governor of Tenneuee,
and that slender, handsome woman with
gray hair and bright, black eyes is Mrs.
Rosina Ryan, a real estate dealer from
Texas. Mrs. J. J. Bagley’s line {one
wins the confidence of listeners at once.
and the lady is one of the broadest mind-
ed of all the managers. Mrs. Meredith
of Indiana has fine red cheeks and pret-
ty hair and is straightforward in all her
methods. Altogether it is a unique gath-
ering, for it represents the first national
congress of women convened for the
management of national interests—New
York Ledger.
Free “'omou o! the City of London.
Lady Charlotte Schricber ’is the only
woman in the world, if we except the
Baroness BurdetbCoutts, who can boast
of being a free woman of a London city
company. She owes this honor to the
Fanmakcrs. for she is at the present time
the great authority on ancient and mod-
ern, foreign and British fans, and the
splendid collection which she 1111er pre-
sented to the British museum is visited
almost daily by people from all ..parts of
the world. Lady Charlotte was born in
the year of Napoleon's retreat from Mos-
cow aud was the only daughter of the
Earl of Lindsay.
Although her greatest intcrcst will al-
ways be her fans (she spent something
like 20 years in collecting the 3.30 raro
specimens now in the museum), she has
performml a piece of very practical phi-
lanthropy in crccting shelters for the
London cubmcu, who would allbo proud
to give hcr a ride for nothing. Lady
Charlotte is now quite elderly. but she
is full of bright intelligence and is at
present engaged in an exhaustive work
on old playing cards. The queen, who
is also a collector of curios, takes great
intcrcst in Lady Charlotte’s treasures

A Messenger Girl.
In Eastbompton, Mast-1.. the people re-
ceive their telegrams with a promptness
that makes the neighboring towns green
with envy. The reason is that the “tele-
graph messenger boy" is a girl, and that
baseball, marbles and dog lights have no
charms for her. She isa 10year-old girl,
named Elsie Gough, and she works in
order that her big brother may go to
school. She is also saving up her earn-
ings to buy a bicycle, and her present
ambition, aside from the bicycle, is to
become a telegraph operator.—-Boston

known as the “Harper set.” and she is
definitely enrolled as what the magazine
people call a “Harper pet." She is a
slender, dark eyed, middle aged widow,
has one child, a son, is a very bright
talker and full of generous interest in
other people‘s work—New York Adver‘

More than 50 women sat down at the

Everything was original about the feast

quaint designs of imps and ink bottles.
This year Miss Mathilde Blind sat at the
head of the table and made the speech
of the evening. One interesting feature
of her remarks was her advocacy of
making Christina Rossetti poet laure-
