be used at the seaside Or at the noun
tains is the most unique japanese one
that can be got. On top must be tied
large BLACK ribbon bow the ends of
which come far down on the parasol
when it is opened. It really looks very
pretty when worn with cotton gown
and makes bright speck on the land
scape. The red parasol is also in vogue,
and is of plain, heavy silk, with natural
wood handle. One having silver handle
is voted extremely bad form. The very
pronounced liking for red is thought tc
be the outcome of the general woman's
disposition. Lining her coat with scar
let, wearing a scarlet frock, having
scarlet parasol and wearing a scarlet
bonnet is the nearest she can get to paint
ing the town red, which from her youth
up she has always had a yearning to do
