New York, Aug. 1S.-The summer girl,
after ell. is very much tho sans every
where. | found her at the Thousand
Islands as at any of the other watering
places l had visited. The only change l
noticed was that perhaps her gowns were a
trihe heavier and warmer than is usual for
summer, and that she dressed her hair
trihe more deliberately. Perhaps gayety was
not at its full blight and she had more
leisure to twist aud coil the shining locks {;
but, at any rate, was charmed with some
of the pretty o)iffures | saw. One had a
| tight twist in the middle of the head and
| then four little soft finger puffs laid around
| it, and tiny ourls clustering in and out
among them. Another had three long
puffs taking up the whole back OF the head,
| each perfect, not a hair out of place, and
| still another had three narrow, short putfs
| ru ming across, not down the head
| also saw there what surprised me some
| what, namely, a departure in blazer suit
| 1t was posi- lively refreshing TO SEQ one that
looked little 'tferenU from the several
| hunire one secs daily The waist was
! made after the style of "a Russian blouse,
| although cut quite differently. There was,
| first, tiGht-fit1ing yoke, cut round, and on
it was fastened tho bodice proper, which
| was laid in loose plaits, end gathered into
| wide belt. From der the wide belt came
! the full skirt of the blouse Where the yoke
and the bodice joined were five narrow rows
| OF white soutache, put on In rounding seal
| lops and the edge Of the blouse, and Likewise
| the cuffs, were trimmed in the same man
| ner.
| l noted with pleasure a girl that wore u
| pale yellow cotton Bedford of fine quality
striped with ccinkled rows Of white. 1t was
| made vary simply. but the material was SO
pretty that 1t didn't need any adjoining.
| They say that this fall coats are going to
| he longer aud JACKET fronts shorter, ard
! from a 1T have seen that has just come
| ovec | should say 1t was true. The bodice
was all OF lace, plain, and mounted by
! high standing collar OF the same material.
! Over 1t went wide, full belt # fOulard. A
! .cket of Ii q pass me ltere came only to
tue top of this broad sGsh, excep5 just at the
| front, whore the loIg harrow points fell u
! little further.
Another pretty one is OF green silk and
has three broa rows If irish point around
the bodice, running up Il ON under the arms
| to the points in the 'front.' forming a cor5e-
| let. The lowest band is cut TO fit in for u
| bel aud is pointed u. the bottom.
A new sea'hore gown of dull pale pink
! wool, with tleecy spots all over of trihe
| deeper shade, has a skirt slightly draped
with ruche at the edge. The waist is cut
a little low in front, AID is felled under "a
| broad band of dark green velvet, fastened
| with IA great buckle. The over jacket is
| very long and has "a wide collar falling over
it Of Ruipurt. " hlch narrows off and runs
down the front as reverse.
Mountain suits are not, as a rule, prOmi-
nent because of any beauty they possess
One usually admires them because they are
so substantial. so useful. But one that is at
this very moment climbing some tall peaks,
| If | mistake not Is entitled to more lavish
praise than the mo Intain suit usually earns.
1t is OF gray brown cheviot and bas two
70 Ss of silk ball buttons running down the
two front seams. The bodice is perfectly
plain and tight fitting, and the overjacket
is cut off short at the belt line. Then 1t is
long ,hsned at the mex by numerous alter
nate rows OF dark brown braid aud plain
brown passementerie. The coat sleeves are
dark also.
Whai pretty underwear one sees all over
on hotel pIezaasl Surely it is the place for
dainty lingerie. and the saints forbid that
| petticoaI with single speck on it should
ever be worn here, for tho waves by the sea
| will find it out speedily, when daring one
| comes in too far, AID the summer girl picks
| up her Skin all in furry and runs. Woe
be unto her then if they are not fresh and
| daiatyl | saw one 'yester lay that was
nothing but silk ruffl9s and lace Insertion. |
regret to say that its fair owner as she leaned
! back in the piazza rocker with crossed
| kuees, displayed much more of it, possibly,
| than she was aware. 1t was delicate pink,
| the shade of the stripe in the silk tea gown,
| which tea gown was of dull dark blue with
! a full bodice OF pink, all draped in black net
that hung in loose, big folds. The gown
had d magnificent Vatican back Of
tho piazza or long way from
where she sat, 50 that it touched
the feet of a lady in pale fawn cheviot,
| with an elaborate silk front of pink also
| with little puffs of cream lace sticking out
| here and there among the folds. The lady
in fawn evidently didn't like the black wat
teau, for she pushed it contemtpuously away
with her foot. Perhaps the girl that stood
next her suited her better, for when she
| looked a her she smiled. The girl looked
! in white bat.ste covered with big silk
| plaid in pale colors. Her tight-ftting
bodice, buttoued down the front, opened Ia
revers 80 large that they fell away over this
sleezes. A pretty lace yoke was thus DIS
| played, matching the lace belt that came
had a wide bow set straight on the front
| rim.
The pale felts are being more and more
worn. White and gray are of course the
! popular colors, aud one sees them all over
at present, trimmed quite high on one side,
with soft folds OF white and gray chiffon,
ana numerous wings to match; here and
| there rhine stone shines out.
A perfect gem Of a hat has just arrived
! safely from Paris lt is designed specially
for clear blonde. The straw iS very soft
| and fine and is pale green. The brim is
very wide. particularly In front, the crown
long and narrow and rounded All around
on the brim is laid rufiie of black lace,
| wired so that it cal b5 placed with perfect
| precision. In the front are three black
plumes, some pretty klots OF pale green
| ribbon, two cleaning, sparkling pins and u
''Mephisto" a1Rrette. Thea the ribbon
twines itself among the lace at the side ana
| dlsposes itself at the back in cluster of
| little loops. EVA A. SCHUBERT.
