skipping along the edge Of boulders, aud
clambering up and down steep places
without any aid but her own robust
health, her common sense, and her AL
pine stock.
Just why this should be, nobody
knows. But it is noticeable fact that,
as the girls have increased in Drawn and
muscle, the men have decreased, until
the delicate, the slender, the effeminate,
the hamby-pamby young man is the
rule, rather than the exception. 1t is
not an uncommon thing to see a young
man upon hotel veranda or upon the
beach, seated under an umbrella, busIly
engaged In doing drawn work. or in out
lining initials in crewel upon scarfs and
handkerchief. BY his side there will
be young woman with brown hands,
stout arms and rounded bust, who
yawnS as she gazes upon the work Of her
male companion, and declares that life
is too short to do such things, and that
as for herself, she prefers to have
kerchiefS just as they are found in the
stores. That they are good enough for
her. She doesn't intend to embroider
any, at all events.

Upon the steamers one sees the NAM
oy-pamby fellow, often accompanied by
two girls, who pet him, coddle him, wait
upon him and explain the beauties Of
the scenery to him until he isn't man
at all-heiS merely pampered sybarite.
The young woman of the season has
taken TO wearing her hair down her
back. The locks are twisted over a
very large curling iron until they lie In
great loose waves. A ribbon doth some
times cOn6ne the glowing strands, mid
way their length. But ofttimeS they
float and fly afar in the breeZeS.
Another fad of the season, and es-
peciallY Of the Saratoga girl, is to get
herself up In imitation Of flower. For
a walk to the springs early in the morn
ing she will wear big sunaOwer hat,
or daGOdil one, holding bright yell
low paraSol over her head. Datfodil
yellow will be the color of her dress,
and a bunch OF daffodils will be pinned
TO the front of her corsage. For even
ing the floral girl affects finer, more
delicate, more sentimental flower. Or
all the galaxy Of blooms from which to
choose the lily-of-the valley is the sea-
sons favorite, and right we'll doth
the Saratoga girl know how to get
herself up in the lily-of-the-valley
style. Her hair is drawn closely on the
top Of her head, and, into the middle OF
the coil over the forehead is fastened a
bunch of lilies with several of the broad
leaves, all standing straight upright, as
il they were court plumes. Around the
upper part Of each bare arm is tied
broad. green ribbon, and into the bow
knot is fastened another bunch Of lilies
and lily leaves. A chain Of the leaves
caught together in the old-fashioned
daisy chain style extends over the shout
ders. Another chain borders the front
and back of the waist, and is met on the
breast with huge bunch Of the lilies.
The skirt is caught here and there with
festOOns Of lilies and an enormous
bunch Of the same is carried in the hand
as the floral girl takes her evening prom
enade.

plies to the ungodly on week days, find
now that they have seven days for re-
ligious exercises. The livery men
whose carriages were wont to be loaded
with sinners journeying to and from
Monmouth stand idly from morn to eve,
scanning the horizon for stray patron.
The small army of tradespeople look
forth from their windows with a lean
and hungry expression. On all sides
the sign "To Let" stares them mock
ingly in the face. The great driveway
from Broadway to West End Is prac-
tically deserted. 1t occasionally
brightens up as handsome turnout,
stunning trap or q blackboard laden
with pretty girls, driv by. There is
q momentary squirt, a slight ticker or
enthusiasm and then the brooding calm
of nature settles again and nothing Is
heard but the roar of the sad sea waves.
Most mournful sight Of all Is the des-
olate race track, the empty grand stand
which once held shouting thousands,
covered with canvas and with shutters
I'D. Grass grows on Monmouth track.
It's liable to grow on Ocean avenue I'M
less something's done.
And through irony of fate, never
were Long Branch, Hollywood and Ell
boron so lovely as now. Never were
the roads, the country round in such
perfect condition. 1t is desert bloom
ing like rose.
How do people amuse themselves at
Long Branch? They do not battle,
that's evident. A long and careful scru-
tiny failed to discover any surf bathers
save a dozen children and one bare
armed, bare-legged, bald-headed man,
who In his yellow and black striped suit
resembled an overgrown and Gpoplectic
potato bug, and who cast apprehensive
glances about, seemingly quite alarmed
at the attention he had attracted.
There were no coquettish maidens In
wicked bathing duds to allure
the eye. Look where one might

guess yes. She is the prettlest, sweet

'She is picture" replied the cold
hearted clerk, as he gave the newly
welded couple rooms that cost SIP a
day. The visitors were soon ensconced
In their temporary home, and naught
hut sunshine could they see. Every
day the young man would tell Mr..
Drummond about the angelic disposition
OF his wife. They were so happy and
earnest that the clerk swore that he
would get married himself. When the
guests left the Richelieu for their
home Mr.. Drummond told the young
fellow that he had proved beyond a
shadow OF doubt that marriage was q
big success, and that the happy couple
had settled his fate.
Speaking OF the matter later, Mr..
Drummond said: ats funny how little
events will decide ones career. / had
no thoughts OF leaving the bachelors
until saw couple perfectly happy"
So the clerk kept keen lookout. Last
evening an Indifferent looking man with
sagged whiskers and well-worn clothes
came into the Richelieu.
Don't you know me?" he asked OF
Clerk Drummond.

Above these light shoes the summer
young girl wears the flimsieSt stockings
that one could possibly imagine. They
are scarcely more than a spider web OF
lace. or course, the girl Of to-day is
too sensible and too athletic 10 be suited
with anything as delicate as this during
her active hours, but when it comes
evening and she permits herself TO be
dainty and lovely, for time, then she
dons the delicate shoes and the web-like
stockings. These dainty Shimmering,
lacey hOsen have silk SoleS, and a few
threads of silk running up and dowL the
legs to hold the lace in place. When on
the legs they appear like trips Of silk,
alternated with lace insertion. Stocking
supporters are impossible with these
delicate creations and the summer girl
must fasten up her lace stockings with
garters that clasp around the legs.
1t is generally known that the yellow
garter when worn by the girl Of senti-
ment. is merely a bluff, and is not put
on for us at all. The real work Of hold
ing up the stockings is done by a pair
of hose supporters, which extend from
the belt. II spOils the shape Of wO-
mans leg to wear q garter clasped
around It, and so, TO keep the love gar
ter in place, a girl has 70 faSten 1t to

true one.
The effeminate young man and the
stalwart Young woman are seen every
where together. The days when the
girls were ashamed to eat, ashamed TO
'lauQh. ashamed to walk and ashamed to
wear substantial comfortable clothes,
have entirely gone out. And IN place
of them has come an era when young
woman measures her success and her
popularity in proportion to her muscle
and athletic qualities.

to do so when the future Is sure to come,
so quickly of itself, If left alone. Yet,
women can never wait for the uuravel-
ing Of the years which are sure to bring
them all the things which woman does
not want. Everywhere, in every little
spot where blade of grass can grow or
patch of verdure finds its way above
brown old mother earth, the summer
girl is seen, stretched upon the ground,
resting her head upon the ground, anx-
iously searching the ground for
a glimpse of a four-leaf clover.
When she has once it, she puts
it to any of half dozen
mystic uses. If she wishes to be a
belle and general favorite with every
body, she pins the clover upon the right
side OF her dress and wears it as proc
lamation to all who may chance to see
it that one woman has been so fortu-
nate as to secure the talisman which
brings success to her and her social
understandings.
If she is superstitious girl and does
not want any evil to befall her, she
tucks the clover in the top OF her left
shoe, and goes on her way trying to
think no more about it.
If she is love lorn maiden, love
sick maiden and disappointed maiden,
from whom some other summer girl has
taken the object Of her affection and
solictude, she places the clover on the
left side just over her beast, and sews
it neatly with thread Of true blue silk,
upon the dainty silk underwear with
which the summer girl makes herself
lovely.
II She has not met the object Of her
affections and does not know who he
is, she places the clover in her right
shoe and starts out to walk, placing
the right foot forward secure in the
thought that she will meet him whom
she seeks. Should the summer girl find
a couple Of four leaved clovers, she
twists them together with piece of
timothy, hooks the stems under her
belt, and rejoices because she has found
that which secures to her the largest
number Of partners for the season.
One other use for the clover. II it Is
laid in under the yellow garter which
the modiSh girl wears upon her left leg,
it means an autumn wedding, with lots
OF presents, plenty Of flowers, q Worth
dress, eight bridesmaids, an English
best man, two maids Of hOnor-and
everybody there to see.

dow scenes caught my eye. In low
chair by the open window Of the huge
parlor, sat pretty, curley-headed girl.
On the arm OF her chair sat q young
man. They were carrying on an earn
est conversation In suspiciously low
tone. Well, all the world loves lover.

was slim, proud blonde In victoria.
She wore gown of white silk null and
a pale green blazer. and carried para

cred with flmy lace.
The warmest-looking person L saw
was pop-eyed woman in red velvet
gown. She was attacking boiled lob
ster. Whether it was the hue of her
gown or the peculiar formation OF her
eyes, know not, but she certainly bore
a strong resemblance to the unfortunate
crustacean before her.

locket. (Which locket have you on to-

Farmers Alliance for all 1t is worth for
selfish and political purposes The re-
port coming from st. Paul, stating that
Ignatius Donnelly was opposed to
the wheat trust among farmers, be-
trays the demagoguery Of the whole
plot, for while championing the cause
of the Farmers, he is web known as a
knight of Labor leader, In the West.
He is looking for q Presidential nomi-
nation In 1892. he hesitates to urge q
wheat combine which would effect the
price of the bread Of those whose suff-
RACES he must have. ''While I favor any
plan which will contribute honestly TO
the farmers welfare, I have doubts
OF the efficiency OF the policy OF farmers

THE DowAGER.

there was, alas! nothing which could
bring the blush of shame to the cheeks
of spinster or Sunday school super
intendent.
There are swimming baths at Holly
wood, the only place in the nelghoor-
hood where water seems to be popular
Here flock the girls and their attendant
SWANS and battle to music, after which
ices and cooling drinks are partaken OF,
then a stroll through the beautiful Hol-
lywood grove or drive to Eloeron con-
sumes the morning.
Meantime there are the morning con-
certs at the hotels. Signs here and
there request people to modify tnelr
conversational tones during the music,
an excellent idea by the way, as 1t re-
lieyes the conductor of the orchestra
from the necessity OF stopping the music
in order that the listeners may hear
each others conversation. To these
morning concerts flock the dowagers.
The watering-place dowager needs no
description. Everybody knows her,
With her iron-gray pompadour, her
horid complexion, her wheeZe, ana her
diamond earrings. 1t is usually one OF
two useful commodities which have
furnished the diamonds-beef or beer.
The dowager was on the piazza OF the
West End and was engaged In the de-
lightful occupation OF informing her
acouaintances of her social standing In
a western town. "My husband Is In
the whisky business" she stated with
JUNCTION, land one Of the richest men In
the city," whereupon her satellites
whirled their orbits trife nearer.
To these morning concerts also come
those estimable ladies who do fancy
work The fancy work lady Is also a
not unfamiliar type. She is recognized
by her somewhat faded beauty, her
water waves, her little shoulder shawl
and her pretty hands. The woman who
does fancy work always has pretty
hands. It's Observation-Disclosures
-one of those phenomena which can
not be explained.
One sees curious sights on the piazzas
of a summer resort hotel. A woman
who attracted much notice by the
porgeousness of her costume and the
flash Of her jewels, was q tiny hunck-
back. Iil-shapen as she was, she yet
possessed woman's love Of finery, and
her dainty costume. with its frills Of
lace and flots of ribbon, sat OF by an
exquisite parasol Of white silk and
duchess lace, was just as complete as
