nor saw ANYTHING, she simply walks

they may be seen from every point, not
even undertaking to dance with these
beautiful legs lest much muscular effort
might spoil their faultlesS symmetry.
and the enthusiastic audience cheers
her with one accord and wants her to
do it over and over again, which she is
never loath to do. She stands 5 feet 5
inches on her French heels, but the
slippers to which these heels are at
tached are only marked No. l, and by
honest count, too. The owner of the
Thistle so worshiped those beautiful
feet that he filled one of her tiny satin
slippers with champagne, drank to the
success of his boat, and then nailed it
to the cutters mast; and though it
didn't bring him luck, he did not cease
to worship at the owners feet until his
defeated racer bore him away from our
shores. These beautiful legs served
eXcellently as sea legs as well. The
owner is one of the most ardent
yachtswomen that ever sailed the
seas. and she can nanule

coast. She has lovely apartments here
in New York, Uttered all over with
bric-a-brac, which divides her affection
with the sea and Wagner's music. and
she really has some very good posses

covered with most beautiful incised

From 5 o'clock to z is brought forth
the climax of this crescendo OF elabora7

lace redingote opening over lace skirt.
Round the edge of the latter are three
bands of narrow velvet. pale green in
color. Similar bands run round the
collar. the cuffs and the belt at the
waist. a black Rubens hat is to be worn
with this.
At the Grand Prix I saw wonderful
redingote in pale green and beaver
stripes, the material being Sicillienne.
This opened over front of pale green
of India muslin embroidered with silk
dots in coffee cClor. This front was
very full in the bodice, which was
trimmed with lovely Mechlin lace.
The large hat was in beaver-colOred
straw, trimmed with pale green
feathers. The buttons of the redingote
were gold. Very long gloves of beaver
cOlOred silk were embroidered in a leafy
design in pale green. The stockings
matched and the shoes were beaver
colored, with green heels. This very
original dress was worn by one OF the

there are hose, hat, gloves SunShade

Her travelling dress is in beige-colOred
vigogne. The skirt is gathered into the
bodice, the collar and cuffs of which are
in old silver. This may surprise you,
but it is one of fashions latest freaks.
The metal is of the thinnest, and is laid
over the velvet or cloth of the collar and
cuff beneath. The buttons match the
old silver. The travelling cloak is made
of the same material as the dress, and
has some handsome handsome passe-
menterie upon it. 1t fastenS with a
long silk cord.
Her gowns for one day are as follows:
Matinee, of embroidered batiste, lined
with silk and trimmed with profusiOn
of lace and ribbon. Very short skirt in
accordion pleats from the waist. This
is to be changed for the early promenade
for a touIard with plain pleated skirt.
The bodice is made with a Figaro vest
over batiste chemiSette. With this
goes Lamballe straw hat, matching
the color of the dress and trimmed with
bows of shaded velvet. Next comes

bodice, otherwise plain, has a

FACTS REGARDING BABIES.
The Reasoning of Children Is
Primitive, and Develops Slowly

The Reasoning Of Children Is
Primitive, and Develops Slowly.
In the course of lecture delivered in
this city the other day a distinguished
female physician said that the inability
of baby to hold up its head was not
due to the weakness of the neck, but to
the lack of development of its will
power. The act of standing was in
stinctive and initiative. while facile eX-
preston and gesture were due almost
wholly to imitation. A baby'S smile.
she said, was the most misunderstood
thing in infancy. A real smile must
have an idea behind it, but the express
sion resembling a smile which is so
often seen Oh very young baby'S race
was without an idea, and was due to the
easy condition of the stomach or to
some other physical satisfaction. The
smile with an idea does not appear
earlier than the fourth week. SO, too,
with the crying of baby. The contor-
causes. The baby sheds no tears. be-
cause the lachrymal glands are not de-
veloped for several weeks after birth.
The chief pleasure of all children is
to change from one condition to another
by their own efforts. This is the be-
ginning of the development OF the will
power, and is often atteSted in what has
been called the comparative attention OF
tears.'' This is not disclosed until after
the second or third month.
A baby tests everything by its mouth,
its sense of taste being the surest and
most reliable guide it has. The atten-
ton of all Young children is difficult to
attract, and they must attain consider
able age before the begin to notice.
Then colors and sounds are most poten-
tial. Fear has been known to be mani
tested by baby only three weeks Old,
and in all cases the sensation is pro-
duced by sound more than by sight.
Children of luxurious and carefully
guarded homes are almost wholly with
cut fear, but the chilren of poor aid ex-
posed parents always manifest it.
Jealousy and sympathy begin to mani
fest themselves in the second year. Gu
riosity also begins to develop here. and
proves to be self-feeder throughout
childhood. A little later the ego begins
to appear, and the baby has the first
consciousness of itself. The ego first
appears as a muscular sense, and the In
FAINT gradually learns to distinguish it
self from surrounding objects. 1t is first
the hand that is distinguished, and then
the foot, and finally the whole body.
Memory does not appear before the
child is two years of age. All the rea-
soning of children IS primitive and ele-
mentary, and develops slowly. Darwin
noted an association of ideas in the
mind of his child when it was only five
months OF age.
The lecturer related experiences of
babies with the first view of mirrors,
and showed that their actions under the
new conditions were similar to those OF
anthropoid apes and dogs under like
conditions.

The song, you know, is in "School for
Scandal" and every one is aware that
there is no scandal at summer resort
hotel. Still it is a good old song, and
is quite often sung nowadays:
While there may be few of
Sheridan's heroines at the lake, there
are pretty girls in plenty. Such dear,
good creatures. Everybody loves them.
When they come gliding up the walk
from the train, followed by a Saratoga,
with their pretty faces halt-concealed
and half-revealed by veil, the mascu-
line heart leaps in glad exultation.
Later on the masculine tongue sWears
blue streak when he counts up what
this sweet girl costs him per week. She
always wears a veil when she comes to
the lake, for then she thinks a great
deal of her complexion. By and by
she forgets all about it.

descended from the muses.. TO be sure,
the nine original muses. were born in
Persia. But in those good old days
when the mob of gods and gOddesses
