her latest statement consists in telling vbs.

his photograph. She is the most CHARMING
httle-well. call it tartar diddler. that
ever existed, and you wonder with a won.
der that never ceases, how a muslin fir Oh
aud simple, innocent looking hat can
adorn such dainty villain She sits in
gingham and fiirts in muslin: ste puts nm a
god lorgnette 30 down people who's
gowns are just what she approves of and
she tells you quite frankly that. as She csn-
not have the kind of trap she wants, she de.
clines any at all. This is the summer girl
at her best. She will insist upon your read
ing Swinburne TO her while she rests under
a large umbrella; she says she don't caren
for Browning, and size wonders what peonla
find in Rudyard Kipling. She abh6rs
scandal. and does not believe that it is good
form; and somehow with her little fads
with her cool-looking gi9gham, and with
her intense desire to make you believe she
understands Algernon the Great, you have
a soft place in your heart for her t1at some
how or other extends far past the SUNNY
summer days
GENTILES AND JEWESSES.
After the landlord has beamed upon Won
Thomas CyIu va H.
you deserve, Bill lifted up your trunk with
grace and negligence, it dawns on you for
about the 5O0th time how pretty the Young
| Jewesses are. How peachy are the com.
| plexions, how soft and full are the eyes. and
! how gracious is the manner shown to
mother and father! The Genriles could
| learn lessons from them in the tiny conr.
tesies of life. but somehow, and it strikes
| you very much at the watering places the
cultivation of courtesies is not great.
ELABORATE BATHING OUTFITS.
| Bathings Padding! Yes. Among tbs
| cottage people. A pretty woman never
/ looks prettier than when. with skirts drawn
to her knees, she paddles in the clear water.
| The manicure has made her feet look az
| lovely as her hand, aud the half-revealing.
half-concealing is quite as fascinating as in
the day of the poet. A dainty get-up for
| padding consists of a kilt skirt of yellow
|
ankles. Under this is worn a killed skirt
OF black silk trimmed with black lace and
very suggestive of the dainty
Lefty Lind. The bodice is blouse
of black silk, with 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 a
French hat is worn with these-it is of black
Neapolitan framed with yellow daudelons,
and having a black JET butterfly just in
| front. No gloves, shoes or stockings are
worn, and the skirts are daintily 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 a
bathing use-she just spoutsd 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 admira-
ton 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 canno1 dance, he
must sit and palpitate; he takes Ter to get
soda water and treats her to a box of candy,
but still ne does not speak. She has re-
solved that be shall. So, last night, when
everybody had left the veranda she said:
Indeed, ma, the air is too damp for
you" The mother thought it was,
and SO toddled off to bed. Then that
girl, with deliberation worthy census
taker, said: Samuel, l do not wish to
make unpleasant remarks, but people are
talking about u.s." And Samuel, smoothing
his sash, said: That seems pity" Then
this diplomat murmured, 80, Samuel,
would you in your great strength permit
this" And Samuel, having the strength OF
a puppy and the vanity of a peacock, says,
Certainly not" and the pursued again re-
marks, Samuel after this we understand
each other as only two loving souls can
you may kiss me-" Samuel is the color OF
a corpse, and be performs the kiss mechan-
ically-still he does it. This sounds like
romance, but no, on my honor, 1t occurred
| in the drawing room of the West End last
week.
PARTISAN PARAsoL NOVELTIES.
By the by, have you noticed how lovely
the parasols of the fairer sex are? Chltfons
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 looks-well, l cannot judge as
20 how she looks, for | am prejudiced IN Ia
vor of the color. The all white, all red and
| all 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 so quaint has broken up TWO
families and is in fair way to do the same
by the third; the all gray looks dove-lKe'
bit is close kin to a hawk, seeking whom
she may to devour; the all whlte-tne
picture of innc cence-is just picture OF IL
and not reality. and the all red-well, asa
some of the gay boys about her.
