The Ice Cream Girl Now on

GINGER SYRUP AND RED HAIR
Their Intimate Relations Discoy-
cred by an Observant Soda
Water Clerk.

Aprll's warm sunny days and the pleas
mt ones of May have wildly impressed
the mind of the society girl that the time
for summer treats is at hand. These are
very important affairs TO girls. and each
spring they eagerly watch for the advent
Of anything new in this line. AS yet this
season has produced no surprises, but prob
ably they are reserved until the summer
is more advanced. There is a great deal of
lamenting among the girls OF the Heights
that now another spring has come and Is
rapidly advancing on its march to sum-
mer and still no ice cream saloon has
made its appearance. By that I do not
mean that the Hill has no ice cream
saloon, for it has numerous ones. but
most OF them are quite too small and
humble for the society girl to grace with
her presence. Ii ever q place needed
fashionable ice cream saloon
and good confectionery, it is
the Heights, and here is an opportunity
for an enterprising, energetic man. Until
such one appears, deeply learned in the
art Of Ice cream making and well equipped
for dispensing The article to the fair sex,
there will be a void in the life of the
pretty girls who are compelled to spend
their lives in such d benighted land.
There is just one consolation remaining to
them They can often remain at home and
send for their ice cream, but this is poor
satisfaction. No nice walk no nice young
man. no nice Ice cream saloon with bright
Lights and pretty flowers. and above all
no nice assortment OF fayors to choose
from. Allin all. it is perfectly horrid
A PRETTY GIRLS EXPERIENCE.

cream saloon which seemed a slight inn
prOvement on any of the Others was at
last discovered. 1t was close and stuffy,
but this pretty girl consoled herself with
After waiting an interminablv long
time, q not too clearly looking waitress
appeared and asked for their orders.
What favors ~ asked she.
What favors have yeui' answered
the pretty girl with a mental vision of
delicious favors, temptingly arrayed for
her inspection.
"AIl fiavors," said the waitress.
4All favors,o said the delighted girl;
Well. bring me little chocolate, straw
berry, lemon ice and banana.
1--WE did have two fiavors. but only have
vanilla left.n
. Vanilla almost shrieked the
pretty girl, ssOh. l detest vanilla. =
And out of the place she strobe, meekly
followed by her escort, who thought it
was quite an irreparable offense to invite
her to partake OF ice cream o q the Hill
SODA WATER LAEsIES.
Although girls are in general attributed
with peculiar fondness for ice cream,
their liking for soda water is scarcely less
deep. tits really very amusing to stand

ing drug clerk told me that even more
amusing was the manner in which they
select their havors
s'Do you know said he, 81 can nearly
always tell what flavor a girl will order
by her general appearance. The tall.
slender girl, with low brimmed sailor
hat perched jauntily on her head, long
English coat which shows goodly dis
play of shirt front and high collar, over
which is carefully knotted q fourfn-hand
scarf, invariably calls for phosphate. con-
sidering it beneficial to her in her ath-
letic proclvities.
do you notice this girl coming in with
such bright red hairf ! warrant she will
call for ginger. Red-haired girls have a
great fondness for ginger; it harmonizes
so well with the general snappish quali-
ties of their dispositions. And sure
enough the red-haired girl drank ginger
soda with most complacent satisfaction.
Another style of girl who comes
for Soda" he continued sand of

what flavor she wants, SO plainly is

the lemon had already penetrated 1t.

slender, and has pretty dimples in her
rosy cheeks. She always smiles broadly

to have her come again There is still
one other girl who probably aggravates
me more than any other. She always
