to lead the thoughts of the average man
into very tender channels. 1t is more
efflcaclous even than spring In causing
young mans fancy to lightly turn to
thoughts of love.
There are promoters and promoters.
Some are calculated to induce admira-
ton, others to help out tagging CONVEX
sations. others to appeal to that secret
pity which, as near relation of love, is
always so welcome. The summer girl
knows them all, and she uses them with
conSummate skill.
In the first place. she looks to the
raiment wherewlthal she shall be
clothed. Summer is the season where
variety in gowns we'll spices the visual
life of the masculine ''strays" at the
seastore OF the mountains. During the
remainder of the year her wardrobe is
limited to mOnotOnOus, if elegant, col
lection of street, house, visiting and
evening gowns, but in the outing
months she has all these and more.
Yachting, tennis, walking, bathing,
coaching, riding and as many other cos
tunes as the pocketbook will allow, are
added to the ordinary wardrobe. They
are as different from each other as
coach from yacht, and they give one
girl the charms of dozen.
Dress is valuable promoter of ad-
miratiOn, but it doesn't amount to much
more. The wise and successful sum-

were hidden. What woman would
walk down the street with her suspen-
ders tied TO her silk dress? She'd pin
'em first, but pins would not hold on a
man. Instead of pinning his suspend
els he has always nailed them,
nails. But it's doubtful if the ex-
pedient of cutting, with jack-knife, a
new buttonhofe in a 500 gown will he
generally adopted by women. What
ever they do, however, when their suS-
penderS rise to their shoulder blades
they will find it better than TO try TO
grasp them. The woman who pursues
her sIspenders up her own back will,
after assuming number of ridiculous
pOStures, wind up by standing on her
head, position repugHant to polite So
ciety.
Tere is another important point:
conclusion as have men, that it is use
less to try to repair broken pair of
suSpenderS when the leather in
the metal ring tears. They may
be sure that when that leather
attached to the ring i'll the back from
which the suspenders radiate gives way
it's all up with the suspenders. They
may sew that leather. they may clamp
it, they may reinforce it with steel
chains if they like, but it won't hold
anything thereafter. That's one of the
mysteries of suspenderS. Another is
that a buckle from one pair OF sup
penders was never known to fit another
pair. So it will be useless, if they wear
real, true" suspentiers, for women to
preserve their buckles except as curiOs.
The buckles may be graved like those
Old Italian cups and dagger hits, they
may be heavy with gold, but they will
never fit any other suspenders than
those with which they we're bought.
The suspender manufacturers take care
of that
Yet another mystery of suspenders,
lately developed, is, what do woman'S
snspenders support? But, of course.
that must remain mystery. A very in
tereSting and peculiar fact is that no
woman has been seen with her suspend

The first and most natural result of
the women'S appropriation of this arti-
Gle of apparel is that some young men
are now embrOidering suspenders for
their sweetbearts. That is almost too
painful for contemplation. But, if they
will do it, the young men should be
very careful in their choice of notices
to cmbrOider. Suppose such weak
minded youth should embroider 81

would double the young woman's woes,
for not only would She have a pair of

also the question, HON does he love?"
Perhaps nothing could unite them-the
suspenders. Again. although blue is

mer girl does not step at that. She
StudleS.up on sailing, and she can impart
a marine flavor to her conversation
which will actually make you thirsty.
1t is so salt. She knows the names and
the points of the leading yachts, and is
such an Intelligent listener to nautical
talk that she can hold a yachtman
against all corners.
And she not only dresses tennis. but
she plays it. She practices dumb"
serving before her mirror all winter,
and she knows just the pose which
shows her 1.-the figure TO its best ad-
vantage. She can swing her racket to
good purpose, and she is always the
lOnged-fOr partner when when the men
suggest playing mixed doubles.
And she likes to walk. If she doesn't.
she pretends to. She wears good, sens-
bic shoes, which do not tire her feet
and compel her to return, haggard and
worn, after the first mile. She knows
her tiny slippers will be noticed at the
ball, and she will have the credit of
lacking vanity but not sense.
'Deuced sensible girl, that Miss
Al" the men will say, and, after all,
they do really like sense when it is nut
up attractiveiy.
And the summer girl. if she goes in
for surf-bathing at all, learns how to
swim. She can dive through breaker
and come up as smiling and as radiant
as Aphrodite. And if she is oyertaken
by exhaustion now and then at OppOr-
tune moments, who can blame her?
Swimming is very hard work, and, after
all, she is only girl. That is fact
she never allows you to forget. She is
ready to be a companion to men, but
never lets them forget that she Is of
little finer clay than they are.
She finds a valuable promoter in bit
of dainty fancy work, which is always
wOnuanly anu becoming. She sits in
big chair on the veranda, her white fin
gers flying in and out, taking stitch in
the embroidery, and at the same time
taking one in the web she is weaving
around the heart of the young man who
sits watching her.
Another very effective promoter is a

How Actors Study.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
''Few people realize the study that
some Of our actors and actresses give to
their art" said DR.. Amos T. Behring's,
of New York, recently. 81 was a hos
pital surgeon during the war, and have
been frequently consulted by actors re-
quired to simulate death 10y gunshot
wounds, sword thrusts, etc.
Actors required to simulate death
by one of the many poisOns, or by a
particular disease. haunt the hospitals
until they have. an opportunity to wit
ness what they are to portray upon the
stage. Those who do not make these
studies frequently amuse the physicians
in the audience very much.
There is prominent actor now star
ring in role wherein he is supposed to
receive gunshot wound in the head
that proves fatal while you waltz yet
he walks across the stage, retains his
consciousness and cOnverSes intelli-
gently until he drops back dead.
Il never saw case of that kind in
real life. A prominent actress, who has
a habit of pressing her hand over her
heart, needs medical guide-h hook. as
she does not get within eight inches of

them with her own hands. She can
twist and wriggle and make faces and
thrust her tongue in her cheek and dis
tort herself into all the shapes OF
marionette, but she cannot grasp those
suspenders. Generations of men have
tried TO do it. Ever since the first pair
OF trousers the stronger sex have pur-
pied their faces and diSlocated their
shoulders in the same mocking. useless,
oath-forcing attempt. And shall women
succeed now IN dag?
So what's to be done if woman's Sus-
penders break loose in the back, say at
Twenty-third streed and Broadway?
VIII she fly to the haven that every
woman seeks when an accident, visible
or invisible, happens to what she wears
will she go into shop? 1t will, in
deed, be courageous woman who will
walk into shop with the explanation,
Excuse me moment, want to button
my suspenders." But even if she be
brave enough to do that, to endure the
scOrnful smiles, to face the witherlng
looks of the salesladieS whose suspen-
ders are never unbuttoned until they so
wish, here, it she be alone, is she going
to button her SuSpenderS?
Men have been trying to solve that
problem for 10! these many generations,
and, as they give everything they own
and a great many things they don't to
women, women might AS well have the
benefit OF their experience at once. The
commOneSt thing for q man to do in
such an emergency is to inhibition his
vest, throw his cOat-taiiS over the back
of his head, walk up to the first man he
sees, turn his back to him and ask his
help. If he knows the other man he
says: ''Old fellow, 've busted my gal
lusses. Yank 'em down, will youP" If
he does not know him, he is, OF course.
He may say something like this:
"Oblige me, sir. by drawing down my
suspenders. As you see, they're
broken" And the other fellow, who
it's ten thousand to one, wears sus-
penders himself, has a fellow feeling
and obliges.
Now. there is, perhaps, the simplest
method and the easiest to learn. Any
woman can say: "Oblige me. sir. by
drawing down my suspenderS. As you
see, they're broken" 1t may be that
the MANS hand will tremble bit, but
there will be that fellow-feeling still,
and he certainly will oblige.
If mans suspender buttons fly off
when the rupture between his suspend
erS and his trousers comes he has last
resort that may be stated at first as be-
ing the most discomforting-to a man.
He can take off his suspenders and walk
Oh the heels of his trousers. But
woman would hate to do that. That is,
she would hate to take of her suspend
erS, for, strangely enough, she wears
them for show, most ostentatlouSly,
proudly, delightedly, with an air that
says palmer than words: "Be kind
enough to observe. l have taken an
other step toward the emancipation
of the SEX" Some women, indeed,
choose the gaudiest colors for their sus-
penders. If man were to wear SuS-
penders as loud as theirs he would not
lie able to hear himself think. For -eX-
ample, ali Philadelphia was delighted
