The one point of utmost importance
for every lady WHO'S coming here to re-
member is, whatever else she may bring.
one, two or more suits Of cambria, muslin
or linen are Indispensable. These should
also be made as coolly as possible, for there
i,a vast difference in this respect, it be-
ing quite possible TO make up cotton
dress with so much trimming and lining
that il is as warm rs WOODEN one. Very
few OF these costumes are made with
close fitting corsages-in fact, almost
none, with exception OF polonaises.

is afraid of spelling the waist, 1t is still
much better 10 spoil Thrill
cent percale than a costly
silk or wooden. But white may be worn
for waist and overskirt, which cannot
spoil, and very great deal of it is worn.
But the gray and yellow dust flies so that
it is of course impossible to wear any
thing white longer than one day, and
then il does not look very well towards
night, if the day be long one. If you
do not wish TO come overburdened with
luggage (Which is difficult to get here
safely, and still more difficult to get

navy blue, or some of the many mixed
colors that are 40 fashionable this season,

means you will keep out of the clutches
of the washerwoman, who charges
sboIninsbly, does not do the work to suit
YOU, and then keeps you waiting double
the time in which she promises to bring
the things home. By that means, too,
YOU car, make valise do the work of a
trunk. If your travelling dress be OF
lightweight wooden goods, of dark
color which yet is not blsck-for the dust

thing is very stylish in goods and

calling, driving, etc, they appear in as
fine and fashionable attire IA at any
watering place in the country; and if
Won expect TO spend much time in these
amusemcnts, you will want to come pre-
pared with the best you have or can
coax papa or club to let you buy.
And ii YOU stop At fashionable hotel,
and vet spend your days al the centen-
