ABSOLUT
side and / can't see but that the
women are more courageous in the
matter than the men. At least a
great many more go into the water,
and fewer get sick from TIE effect of
it. Here, as on dry land, woman
plays the ornamental part. She is
not satisfied with dingy black
bathing suit, that makes the wearer
look like an eXecutioner. Brilliant
reds, pale blues, delicate yellows,
salmon colors, and fawns, touched
up with bits of ribbons, enriched
with sashes and ornamented with
cord and tassel, make woman the
one attractive feature of the surf,
without which life, even to the
eoker-on-at-Newport, would be dull
and dreary. Well may we hatter
ourselves that the world is bright
ened by us.
THE MERE ON.LOoKER
as u rule is passive, lfeless, listless
creature, be il man or woman. They
contribute nothing to the joy of
others, and are even forgotten by
the pretty bathers at whom they
stare their eyes out of their sockets,
almost. The bather that is even
most gaudily dressed forgets to pose
and parade herself as she comes in
contact with nature and has to look
sharp from fear she will be taken off
her feet by each succeeding surge of
the tide. Forced to act naturally,
her counteuance is lighted up by
every changing emotion produced
by the excitement Of rolling surf,
sousing cold water and sea.breeze
brings the tan-hlushes to her face.
She forgets herself and becomes in
teresting.
CODFlSH-TAIL SOUP.
This is the cheapest and most pal.
ateable dish we have learned TO
make since we are at Newport
Take a pound tail-piece of fresh F.
Goldfish, wash it clean and drop it .
into about a kalf-gallon of water.
Let it boil five minutes and take it
out to bone. With the water YOU
have boiled the fish in, make some
stock as follows: Into % melted /

covered about five minutes bcfore

crab or any kind Of fish may be
used instead of cod. Ii is q soup
that is not greasy, it i reli>hed by
all, and is very uourishiug. Ii uses F.
up old bread scraps, and ten-cent .
piece of fish will make substantial /.
dish for ten persons. When made F..
of fresh sea-cod or founder it is "a
dish fit for king. Made of sea- /
crab that has been boiled an hour IN I
sea-water it is none too good for
President Harrison.
DANGERS ON THE SAND.
Don't sit there long in that dry /,
sand" shouted kind hearted old .
lady to n gay dude with scarlet .
sash foot wide that made him look /
like very small pony with very /
large cinch.

day investigating our wardrobe for .
lively results The dude has not .
since been seen, and he no doubt /
