GOOD OF AN AFTERNOON.
After an evening at the hop. when morning
lassitude is often the consequence ride to
the lake through q shady country with light
hearted companions, and the cheer OF the clear
ringing tones Of the jolly trumpeter Ginning in
so appropriately with the "giggles" and the
'ha-ha's," the trampling of the steeds and the
rattle of wheels, will be found much more In
spring and useful than the morning spent in
bed and will better prepare you for the events
of the day.
And equally delightful is the ride on top one
of these coaches during an afternoon when the
sun renders promenading uncomfortable, and
reading on the little piazza is drowsy psstime.
Starting on the trip you are hi nrst b9wied Tp up

Saratoga is the only resort having the skin
hand tally-ho coaches: and in the fall this line
will be taken to Washington and become q
recreative feature of that city of amusements.
Mr.. Frank Del Correll, q bugler on one of
Slorah's coaches, has on exhibition before the
tally-ho office map of Washington which Ii
the center of attraction. Mr.. Corren was
formerly connected with the geodetic work in
that city and this map is fne piece of work.
IL shows the route to be taken by the coaches
in Washington and the location Of over so
places of interest along the route. It is safe to
prophesy these coach rides will become very
afforded. but for the opportunity of an addi-
tional costume for the ladies, and quite as
likely for gentlemen also. fof to tell the truth
they are giving the fair sex quite q chase for
the lead in effective and picturesque costum-

THE OLD DRESS SUIT.
Right here would like to suggest that be-
twist Of a tie, the dimensions of trousers, the
cut or decorations of the blazer, width of .
sash, shape of q hat or the latest tip of it, the
correct color for gloves or any detail Of q
perfect toilet of the masculine gender let
the inventive and creative mind turn its at
tention to the needed reform in the dress suit.
How men can turn out for the hops in a suit
that has every appearance of being the same
he was served in at supper few hours before,
is past the female understanding. Think you
if female walters served guests in train and
decollette women would appear later, looking
as If they we're on a lark and had exchanged
clothes with their servants7 By the way, there
is the suggestion of remedy, in this, for the
Objectionable low-cut gown.
But let gentlemen at once adopt the round
about pea jacket for full dress If their wait
ers are to continue In the swallow tail livery,
1t is not enough that distinguishing necktie
be wore, as has been suggested. That Is good
enough as far as il goes. but 1t does not 60 far
