Prince of Wales said when he gave her his photo

call 1t "tarradiddler" that ever existed, and you
wonder, with a wonder that never ceases how
muslin frock and Il simple, innoeent-looking hat
can sdorn such dainty villain. She sits in ging-
ham and flirts in mustn't she puts up gold lorg-
nette to down" people whose gowns are not JUST
what she approves of, and she tells you quite
frankly that as she cannot have the kind OF trap

your reading Swinburne to her while she rests

Thomas given you the seat that he thinks you ue,
serve Bill lifted up your trunk with grace and
negligence, it dawns on you Tor ABOUT the nVe-
hundredth time how pretty the young Jewesses
are How peachy are the compleNlons, how soft
and full are the eyes, and how gracious is the
manner shown to mother and father. Ihe Cen
tiles could learn lessons from them in the tiny
courteses of life, but somehow; and II strikes
you very much at the watering places, the cult-
vation of courtesies is not great.
ELABORATE BATHING OUTFITS.
Bathing? Padding? Yes Among the cottage
people. A pretty woman never looks prettier
than when, with skirt drawn to her knees, she
paddles in the clear water The manicure has
made her feet look as lovely as her hand, and the
halfrevealing, half -concealing is quite as fasc-
mating as in the day of the poet, A dainty get-up
for padding consists of kilt skirt OF yellow and
black striped serge reaching to the ankles. IN
der this is worn killed skirt OF black SILK:
trimmed with black lace, and very suggestive of
black silk, with a low sailor collar and deep cuffs
of the striped serge 1t is decidedly loose, and
held in by yellow and black belt. Direct from
Trouville french hat is worn with these-it s
of black Neapolitan, framed with yellow danue-
lions, and having a black jet butterfly just in
front. No gloves, shoes, or stockings are worn,
and the skirts are dalntily picked up while the
maiden plunges into the deep just far enough to
show in the blue water pair of white feet that
ought to charm ANYTHING masculine.
ROMEO AND JULIET.
a woman looks much better padding than
when she is bathing, for even Venus did not have
to make an entrance from bathing g-house-she
just spouted up from the sea and retreated.
What an art that Is There is one girl here who
has her mother well trained in this respect. she,
the girl, has won the ADM ration of an ecru
young man who wears a deep purple sash to
protect his infant stomach. He adores this
young woman, but he don't know how to tell her;
he palpitates ferociously, and his sash draws
with emotion when She dances with another
young man; but as he cannot dance, he must sit
and palpitate; he takes her to get soda water and
treats her to box of candy but still he does not
speak. She has resolved that he shall. So last
night, when everybody had left the veranda, she
said: Indeed, ma, the air is too damp Tor you" 7"
The mother thought it was, and so toddled off to
bed Then that girl, with deliberation worthy
L
make unpleasant remarks, but people are talk
ing about u.s." And Samuel, smoothing his sash,
said That seems e pity Ihe1 TINS TINS diplomat Up nn
great strength permit this?" And Samuel, hay
ing the strength of puppy and the vanity OF a
peacock, says: Certainly not" and the pursued
again remarks: samuel, after this we under
stand each other as only two, loving souls can
you may kiss me-" Samuel is the color of a
corpse, and he performs the kiss mechanically
still he does it. This sounds like romance, but
no, on my honor, it occurred in the draWingroom
of the West End last week.
PARTISAN PARAsoL NOVELTIES.
By the bye, have you noticed how lovely the
parasols of the fairer sex are? Chiffons from
Worth in all the faint colors-in clear white look
like punches of clouds that keep the sun from
my lady's eyes. The entire scarlet girl has a
scarlet tulle parasol, and looNs-well, cannot
judge as to how she looks, for / am prejudiced in
favor of the color. The all-white all-black, all
red, and al-gray girls are to the fore, but you
must not conclude that the color worn is in the
least indicative of the girl. The all black, who
looks quaint, has broken up two families and
is in fair way to do the same by the third; the
all-gray looks dove-ike, but is close kin TO a
hawk, seeking whom sic may to devour; the all
whte-the picture OF innocence-s just a picture
of it and not reality, and the all-red-well, ask
some OF the gay boys about her.
sEA.sHoRE VISITORS.
There are, then, no good, sweet women
Plenty, my boy. But they are not the ones who
are making themselves conspicuous at the water
g-places. Here by the great sea, that seems II
sweep in with a wicked caress whatever comes
ing from the Ark, good and bad alike. They
drive with mother in her handsome victoria, fol
lowed by Il tubful OF children; the placid grand
mamma in her Old-fashioned landau, beaminl
down AT the young girl; the elderly man, VIII
likes good horse when he sees it,, but who gives
a charitable word to the boy who has beer takeI
IN, are all seen in the procession that goes u
form Vanity Fair. BE little charitable 70 tho
sOilcd doves, and remember what Mistress Becky
sharpe ADVISED, 1T Is SO easy TO be good on tel
thousand year" Still there are other thing
that are good that do not take so much money
LONG BRANCH ENJoYMENTs.
You can sit on the sands and watch the grea
sea come up, up, up, until delicious sense o
danger comes over you.
You can for a little money take the sick bab
down where ii may breathe the salt air that tn
good God intended should bring it good healtl
You can go into quiet corner of the piaZza
and there, looking Mt the maid you love, reaZ
how good thing is woman-gcnerOus, kind, an
loving.
You can risk the merry -gO-round if you hay
courage; you can sit upon the pier at the Yves
End, and thank God for letting you live.
Indeed, that is what the air makes me d
anyhow; does il affect you in the same way
1t never seems 10 trOlic this great sea- but
does seem 10 say, IF it pleased me, how easil
because am little and also because i do NJ
know how TO swim, say, "Please, good NJ
Ocean, spare for another season your most a
dent admirer, BAB."
