Mademoisellb Newly Rich looks at you
with the air Of blank nmazcmeut which
ehe learned in London last summer,

you that,,as usual, they will spend "the

always stay all summer at their own
place, where they have such Jolly |
time, and where they don't bother much |
about dressing, bu: Just 50 in for row

ton in which parasol, hat, gown and
shoes will show at their best.

The incest fellows to talk to on the
subject of the summer time, arc the

the farm, and where they can get up
such magnificent appctites that they
can eat anything they will work us
