another countrywoman says the New

man of high rank returned home for visit

adopted country. ''dow very odd, said

some Of our fair Anglomaniacs would
profit by these experiences of their country
women who know their world, and would
not try SO perSistently to stamp out their
individuality. At the same time, however,
there is great danger that daring, high
spirited girl may carry her independence
too far. We do not care to see our women
enact the rolo Of court jester to any II. R. H.,
and the success which is begotten by cater
ing to the taste for amusement in blase set
is not always desirable.
There is no use in going over a descrip-
ton of the regulation bathing costume,
says Clara Belle in the Times Democrat
1t remains belted blouse and a pair of
trousers, both as short as the wearer
chooses, with stockings for the disclosed
portions of the lower limbs, and with bare
or covered arms, as desired. OF course,
the exposed cuticle will tan quickly. Some
girls don't mind that, and l have seen one
wearing in the evening, a sleeveless and
snn-burned arms to the biceps,
and a neck similarly tinted, while
the upper arm and breast were contrast
ingly white as alabaster. The divided
skirt is something of a nuisance. yet it is a
good thing to have one for summer. Boats
are SO likely TO upset, or one must climb
from low boats into yachts. or jump over
stiles or climb trees, and one feels scary
about ores clothes. Make your skirt of
light crisp silk. some pretty color-scarlet.
if you like, or bright blue Let it come
half way between knee and ankle. Do you
know how to make the skirtg Just
pair Of Scant boomers, either
ballooning or holding by elastic about
the leg. On each leg sew rufiie half way
above the knee, full ruffie, or, better still,
a anticipating that falls to where the
particular, you can put another ruffle
under this just about the knee of
each leg, and falling to the edge of
the boomers Then sew skirt. this same
length and of the same material, to the baud
of the boomers. No matter what happens,
no fash of white can suggest exposure.
The white articles of wear are safe under
the boomers. No matter how high a
reach the step up is, the ruff1es on the lifted
leg fall in a mass about the leg and down to
the other leg looking as if ones skirt olung
kindly. The whole thing goes on at once,
and does not soil any sooner than would the
usual dark petticoat, and it is prettier than
the pettiooat. You can lift your dress with
impunity and not be afraid of lifting the
skirt at the same time. Even If you do you
cau't lift the rufIles, and they look like II
skirt when they show.
THAT" said the quiet little woman, as she
was showing her Chicago Tribune guest
over the house. ''is my hall photograph and
family record taker. My husband and my
sons al talk into it when they come home
at night, and each has to give the hour at
which he comes in"
But mightn't they give the wrong hour ?"

". at shows me their condition, and that's
what | want, you know. Now you stick
those little things in your ears and I'll
turn the switch, and well see what the re-
port is"
The visitor followed instructions, and
then the little woman asked her if she saw
the value of it.. She said most emphati-
ally that she did. Then the little woman
took the report herself, and she grew red in
the face as the machine began:
"It'sh 2 G. M, m I'm glad of it, Whoo-
pee-e-e! Fuller'B goat and had more fun
than box of monkeys Whoop-la, Maria
wow-w! III bust"
Then she shut the machine of and said
family:
George must be playing joke on me. "
There was more sarcasm than sincerity
in the tone Of tho visitor as she replied
oddly:
81 presume So" Then she added: But l
wouldn't put the recorder on eXhib ton"
A Young woman unconSCl0uslY struck the
keynote of conversational ability in her
comment the other day upon friend, says
the New York Times. Il like to talk to
him. she said emphatlcally; 'he makes me
think of something to say.' The ability to
draw out ones companion in conversation
is far greater and rarer than the possession
of fluency in expressing ones own opinions
A persistent talker, even il brilliant, be-
comes tiresome after little. Said clever
hostess, planning dinner which she wished
specially suoce 5sful: II can't ask Mrs. s.,
though on some accounts | should like to /;
she talks so increasingly that she soon de-
presses the company" A man expanded
the same idea a little more when he said he
enjoved encounterinR a person slow to
awaken to the spirit of a conversation.
There is no game" he says, lin these
brilliant people who meet you alert many
sided, responding instantly to every SUBJ
iect suggested. All you can do is to go
pleasure and subtle fattery to ones skill to
rouse aud develop"
Pretty feet and well turned ankles, says
Ella Wheeler Wilcox in the World, are q
necessity-to the summer girl. 1t is only
the wall flowers aud chaperons who notice
the dancers feet in winter ballroom, and
many a reigning bells succeeds in hiding
her unbeautiful feet from view in parlor
and promenade by adrois dressing and

ceal her feet or ankles, for she must sit in
