The people mi an boaloeaa. All actions are gay or serious, p'easant or mournful, according to our habit of regarding Ihefn. To "no of a healthy organization, phjalcally and mentally, and who is well educated In natural objects, there are many sources of rnjoyment unknown to others leaa happily circumstanced. All things that effect the senses, are associated with something that has made an early impresaion on us. Nothing occurs without iteing instantly classed in ita proper group of X'T'V or disagreeable recollections, and n« these are a« various as our perceptions, there must be s great amount to amuss or disgust us in the world. Bvery person should be given his Just dues whan ngoocialcd in any rapacity wlib r.nolher, and any idea wlilca he has originated or talent which he baa displayed should be Justly rewarded. If thle is not granted him in the natural oomr of events, he h cognizant of the fact, though he may not make mention of It. A wise man is careful of these llttic courtesies and' is particular about giving them their proper attention, so that they ean be classed with the "pleasant" and not "dlsagrt ealtle" recollection*. Every season we have some of our previous visitors returning to us and remarking that there is no place like Cape May. Tblstummer'a Wi stent gentleman, who made us a visit for the first time last year, derided to try some other resorts along the Atlantic seaboard. To that end he took a trip to Maine's fasfaionsblc resort. Bar Harbor, continuing down the coast from that point he touched all the principal seaside retreats, including the leading ones along the New Jersey coast. Of each he had oertain faults to Had, but on reaching tnis plane he bad come to the conclusion, that tor health giving qualities, locetion snd the many natural advantages ea joyed. . we surpassed them allHere is a man who cltlmt to have studied with care the advantages offered by aaoh of ibe leading seashore resorts. He was a disinterested person and has formed Ids opinion under purely honest 4^) unbiased circumstances. This is the natural result of all rational investigatiooe. We ate proud to say that this is a place of summer n st and recreation. Can there be no way by which vratursome persons rosy bj kept within proper limits when in the suif. Its an everyday occurrence for Ihc life boats to be called upon to rescue imperiled swimmers, or their friends put in jeopardy by attempts at rescue.
