At first she would and then she wouldn't, but, really, after all, it would be a shame after coming 600 miles to the sea not to go into the surf. This and the married sister from Brooklyn, and the mild ridi- cule of her wicked brother-in-law, settled it. But she shivered as she noted the ef- fect of the hired Lathing sult upon the human form divine. Some of them were just too dreadful! You could mark her shrinking ttle fig- ure coming down the sands, piloted by the married sister, to the spot where waited the wicked brother-in-law. Her freckled face was red, but not from the sun. She kept her blue eyes on the near foreground, certain that the 5,000 persons on the beach and pler were looking directly at her bare ankles. “Oh, dear! let us go in quic! cover up!” she said, pleadingly. “Take her other hand, George,’ married sister. I want to * said the “Now don’t be a fool, Mary. You're not .the only one here, re- member,” added this old-timer, rather obscurely. “Come on!” crieq@ the wicked brother- in-law, with a grin,,And they ran down pit-a-pat, spit-a-splatter, just in time to Meet a stiff roiler qurling in. “Jump now!” yelled the married sister, but the wicked brother-in-law dragged her down with him, smothering a piercing shriek of terror. When the gentle, freckled face came up again it was white instead of red, and she choked with salt water, and the smart in her eyes made the tears flow. She look- ed repreachfully at. the wicked brother- in-law and shovk him off, but before she recoverad speech another wave knocked hes over and buried her, screech and all. “Keep hold of George!” cried the mar- ried sister. “Go ‘way, you brute!" gasped the little one. “Don't you see I'm drowning? Oh! Oh! Yeouw!” Down she went again before a wave not more than knee high. The wicked brother-in-law laughed. “I'll never speak to you again!” she sobbed, shivering all over, and cowering between the fear of the sea and the mock- ing crowd on the sands. “Come in here by the rope, Mary!” yelled the married sister. “Bring her in, George. What are you standing around there for?” “Never!” cried the freckled girl, getting her voice back once more. ‘You never told me it was ice water! And that ft is nasty ugh! I've swallowed a bucketful of it— yes; and you think it's funny, you—don’t yon touch me! I’m going out! Now, you But the wicked George grabbed her round the slender waist and bore her, kicking, struggling, shrieking, her eyes flashing fire, out to the rope to his wife. And there she remained in wild frolic, terrors soon all forgotten, until both the wicked brother-in- law and his wife had to join in coaxing her to come out. ——_——+e+___.— BLOOMER ACCIDENTS. They Will Happen and Sometimes Prove Rather Uncomfortable and An- moying. From the Fastern Argus. Natives of and visitors to Long Island had something to talk about Sunday. It was rapidly approaching the hour of dusk when one young man called out to some com- panion on the piazza: “Say, get on to his nibs on the bike. He'll get a header coming down that hill like that.” On came the rider, and descending the hill there was a distinctly feminine shriek as a bedy shot over the handle bars of the bike. This, of course, aroused the chivalrous natvre of the boys, who naturally ran to the scene of the wreck. “What's the matter, young feller?” asked one of the boys soothingly. “Feller, nothing,” the rider replied. She remained sitting on the grass, for it was in reality a “she,” and the boys beat a hasty retreat. ‘There was great excitement, and a crowd gathered, among them being several ladies. There were tears in the fair bloomerite’s eyes as she flashed a message with them to- ward the group of three ladies that had gathered at the scene of the mishap. It must have been mentgl telegraphy, for the ladies apparently understood, for they felt in their bodices for something that looked like pins. The masculine spectators politely turned their backs and wa}ked away, while the la- dies surrounded the young rider, who had hot arisen from the grass. There was a skort convention among the ladies, and in a few moments a somewhat disarranged pair ef bloomers were geen disappearing over the hill toward the East End. fortune trying to disease.
