(4 ‘ g, Ky r SOCIETY DOINGS IN JUME. The Bummer Girl and the Mission She Has in Life. BECRET OF GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY. A Pretty Garden Party on 8Sherman Avenue—Swimming at the Nat- Fetos ons. atorinm—Lawn and Lunch THE OLD CANOR, (The late) Alhert Pike, Where the rocks are gray and the shore is steop, nd the waters below look darl and deep, Vhere the ragged pine, in its lonely pride, Leans gloomily over the murky tide; Where the reeds and rushes are long and lank, And the weeds grow thick on the winding bank ‘Where the shadow is heavy the whole day through, Thero lics in 1ts moorings the old canoo. The useless paddles are idly dropped, Like a sea-bird's wings that the storm has lopped, *\nd crossed on the railing, one o'er one, ke the folded hands when the work is done, While busily back and fortn botween The spiaer stretches his silvery screen, And the solemn owl with tho dill “too-whoo,” Bettles down on the sido of the old canoo, he ourrentloss wators are doad and still, ut the l[wnii,(hlwm.l plays with the boat at will, And lazily in and out again It floats the leagth of tha rusty chain, Like the weary march of tho hands of time, That meot and part at the noontide chime, nd the shore is kissed ntcach turning anew, y the dripping bough of the ald canoe. Oh many a time with ceascless hand, have pushed it away from the pobbly strand, And paddied it down quick, Whl!rnllnn whirls are wild and the eddies aro thick, And lnughed as T leaned o'er rocking side, And looked below in the broken tide To see that the faces and boata wore two, That were mirrored back from the old canoe. where the stream run Butnow, as Ilean o’er the crumbling side, le look below in tho sluggish tide, ho fice that I seo there is graver grown, And tho iaugh that I hear is a sober tone, And tho hands that lont to the light skiff wings Have grown familiar with sterner things: But [ love to think of tha hours that sped As [ rocked where tho whirls their white spray shed Ere the blossum waved or the groen grass Krew O'er tho mouldering stern of the old canoe. Ts tho Summer Girl over earnest! has been & question which the leading newspaper writers have been trving to solve ever sinco June brought that being into existence, In our pinion she 1s vory muchin earnest. It is really surprising that there should bo mny doubt about it. Itis a mistake to as- sume that the Summer Girl is always frivo- lous. She may possess all the elements of the making of” a noble womauhood, and the freedom and energy and experienco of the out-of door summer life often fit her for it rather than detract, Allover the country near and far, there ero girls, who, after their summer outing, como back better and_finer types of woman- bood in cvery way. So we should not be too guh-k in passing judgment upon these pro- ucts of the summer davs, for they are liko the season, full of warmth, brightness and sunshino and our effort should be in the direction of perpetuating their oxistence ratqer than place hindrances in the way of their proper development. The Summer Girl may bo a coquette, y she may beeven a flirt, but the shadows ~ fall athwart her lifo all too soon and the joy in her face and the light in her mild bluo eye melt away in the look of care and the refloc- tion of a mission to be performed. It is a trite saying that few of us have tho gIft or acquire the art of gracefully growing old. Heedless and superficial, or silly and vain persons look upon advancing years as an afilictive and vengeful dispausation of Provi- dence; but the true philosopher ana Christian takes “‘fortune’s buffets and rewards” with equal thauks and grows in amiability and grace with each succeding year. Now, to rail at the weather or maka pitiful attempts to conceal the footprints of time is to involve 0no's salf 1 cortain misery, to say naught of turnitg away one's friends'in mild disgust. The ungraceful way to receiving time's ad- auces s persistently to refuse to ac- yledgo bis presonce. “%¢ro is a gray hair, aud I am only 25. £ull it out quick!” Out'it comes and seven more sprive up, YA large hat or a turban always did be- comoe me, aud I'm sure I'm not too old to wear them now.” Perhaps not, but all the same a modest little bonnet, with'strings tied under your chin, is vastly more In your way now. hall get this or that particular shade of red, or pink, or blue, for it was always so be- coming to mo.” Yes, in the long ago, but not in the now, dear heart. It you will ouly wipo the dust of vanity off of your mireor and take a good look at vourself in & swong light, you will perceive that the freshness of youth no ouger abides with you. Therefore you inust ‘‘gather eartn's glory and bloom Within,” simce extornals have lost their po- fency. ' Look around on your shopping ex- peditions for shades that suit your forty- year-old complexion. Mr. Hamilton Aide, discoursing very agree- ably of “Tho_Social Aspects of American Lifo" in the Ninet-enth Century for June, has tris to say of American hospitality : *American hospitality is proverbial, aud justly so. It is couceived in the truo old English spirit, which has died away, shame- faced, amid our own couventionalities, We nre, for tho most part, afraid to ask the friend we meet in the Strect to share our simple dinuer. If wo cannot kill tho fatted palf we daro not offor him cold mutton. And 0 it comes about that many a pleasant eve- ping, sucn as our forefathers would have en- Joyed ‘across the walnuts and tho wine,' is missed. Hero it is not so. [ shall always vo- call with ploasuro a visit I paid to an almost stranger ono Sunday afterncon, whose talk beguiled me into remaining much longer than I had intended. As 1 rose to go ho said: *Wo bave au early dinner on Sunday: but we are going to supper presently. Will you not and the supper consisted of Bos- ton benns, bread, cako and preserves. A plate of cold beef was brought in for mo; and that was all. No excuses were made for the moagerness of the fare, aud to mo at least no Apology was needed. [t was rightly assumed thut what was good enough for the family I should bo satistied with, This in my oyes 13 the wost perfect wstance of true hospitality aud good breeding 1 ever met."

The stars, too, lent their light to the scene, which was picturesque to a de- gree. Chinese lanterns ornamented the statoly trees which assist in making the lawn around the Brown mansion, 0uo of the hand- somest in the west. Hammocks swayed gently in the evening breeze or elso held the form of some fair charmer, while over her bent » member of the masculine gender.

Talk for a moment was at a standstill. It will happen that way, vou know, sometimes, even 1 a crowd of gay spirits. Then just as suddenly as the silence iad fallen upon the heads of the crowd it was broken by the solitary figure who had elected to sit apart from the rest. With a sublime tenderness in his voice, with the light 1 his eye “‘that is not on land or sea,” he said. *‘And she was not a bit sick on the secoud day out.” Yet could you blamo him? IFor “'she" has just gone over the ocean for a summer’s outing, and the interest shown is pardonable, surely.

If you are going away for any length of time’this summer take your steamer chair with you.

The collar, corselet, black of the skirt and ruffies of tne sleoves and front of the skirt are of tno gnuzo.

A pinky fawn is the new- est shade n kids, and many smurt women are wearing white suede in the evening. Two little bridesmaids wore dressed in rich canary-color surah silk frocks with broad snshies, whito lace hats and yellow ribbon bows. ' They also wore bronzo stock- ings and shoes and gold Cinderelia slippor brooches, with bluo enameled lover's knots. Brocades were never so truly gorgeous as this A lovely one is palest biue, with & design 1n metal goid on a pale ground, which has all the offect of being shot with gold, by roason of the gold threads passing behind the satin. Tho same design, largo pine with folinge, is mado on & ground of cream. All sorts of protty fancies are introduced in the fashioning of light bodices and waists for the vacation season. The Svanish, Swiss, and peasant waists with pretty rib- bon accessories are now almost indispensable w a well-rogulated toilot for a young lady. Some bridesmaids’ frocks were of cream serge maid with three-quarter coats edged with gold, and capes of salmon-pink velvet, the front of the bodices being draped with chiffon; and their hats. of cream openwork straw, wero trimmed with pink carnations; bouquets of pink carnations, tied with long ribbons, A blue and white striped dolaine was vory simple ana cool-looking. Its skire was en- tirely plain, except for a few plaits at one side. Thoe bodico had n triple row of jot carried about at the waist, and was worn with o big flat bat of black crinoline, trim- med with corn flowors and white ribbons. Fan-collectiug is becoming more and more of a fad. 'Thero is probably no singlo collec- tion of fans now in New York equal to that which was owned by Mrs. Astor. Mrs. Seligman has many beautiful fans. Mrs, Whitelaw Keid has an exquisite one made of white silik, embroidered in colors and orna- mented with small pearls. A pateh of blaci court plaster on tho face is likely to b a summer whim. It 1s coquotry confessed, but then coquetry is a woman's safest weapon, surest protection, and, to many minds, hor chiefest charm, The patch was invented by some queen envious of the mole on a peasant girl's cleek. It attracts the eye to a charm it might not note. The severe style of dress, which bas been 0 highly favored for so many seasons, ban- ishing wholly all frills and {ripperies, flounces and” furbelows froni the costume, and ruthlessly forbidding anything like lace upon the corsage, has now, as might have been expected, undergone completo reaction, and we are doluged, as it were, with lengues of lace of every quality and design. Of course tho fashion is carriod to an absurd and often ridiculous length. “There is nothing that equals fresh butter- milk for removing tan, freckles, sunburn or moth spots, says the Ladies' Home Journal It has the great advantage that it does not in- jure the skin, but renders it soft, liko a little child’s. Tako a soft cloth or' sponge and bathe tho face, beck and arms thoroughly with buttermillc before retiring for tho pight; then wipo off the drops lightly. In the moru: ing wash it thoroughly and wipe dry with a crash towel. e A Contribution from Texas. Mr. J. B. Boswell, ono of tho best known citizens of Brownwood, Tex., contributes the following item as _his porsonal experience: “After having suffered from diarrheea for some time and having tried differont medi- cines with no good results, I tried a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cuolera and Diarrhaa Remedy, which relieved me at once, and 1 recommend it to all who may bo suffering from this troublesomo complaint.’ — CHRISTIAN DEAVORITES.
