MARGARET BRENT CHATS OF BATHING SUITS
AND THE DELIGHTS OF OLD POINT
COMFORT.
HyGF1A HOTEL, OLD Po1Sr COMFORT Va,
July 19.--My Dear Janet: About month
ago, some alarmist got up fever scare
about Fort Monroe and the adjacent
towns. The consequence was, that those
who did not believe the rumor had u
select time for awhile, but now the yearly
crowd is gathering, and the veteran water
ing place will hold Its own. What a
delightful old spot is the Point! 1t seems
an orchid among the common plant that
flourish along the coast. Its pioneer
hotel, the Hygeia, famous on two con-
tinents, its stately garrison and pleasant
contingent of army people, its dainty
cottages and their pretty gardens. the
broad expanse of sea and the wide white
beach, untrammelled by board walk,
pavilion or pier, make it the favorite for
large majority. No fiends are here SELL
ing walking turtles and fabulous gems, no
Jerusalem stands, nor sleight Of hands
trioks' All is quiet, stately, aristocratic'
Even the ocean wave seems to imbibe
the genteel tone of its surrounding. Tur-
bulent pillows do not take your breath
and knock your garments all awry. The
waves flow in gentle, dignified ripples
and fair maidens dip and plunge and float
in the most bewitching and elaborate of
suits. One fair damsel who has white
dimpled neck, plump arms and lovely
golden hair, takes her bath in black silk.
1t is low-necked, huge puffs for sleeve,
with blouse confined at the waist by q
jet girdle. The skirt hangs in graceful
folds, even when wet; silk having the ex-
cellent quality of shedding water and re-
tanning its elasticity. The hat is shirred
affair of black taffeta, tied under her chin
in a coquettish bow, and being an expert
swimmer at present she is heroine.
To be anybody here, one must be some
body at home. Stars of oil magnitudes
are scattered around. Baron di Rudini,
of the italian legation, is airing his ample
and diplomatic person on the beach this
morning. Those who are fortunate
enough to speak his mother tongue say
he is a charming conversationalist, SO
witty, 80 apt, and q host of compliment
tary adjectives. To the majority of US,
he is u very courtly gentleman, who
smiles and bows on all occasions with
consummate grace. The hearts Of the
feminine faction are in flutter over the
advent of yacht, containing the secre-
tary of the navy and his daughter. Mr..
Herbert is a widower--a more interest
ing fact, than that, he is in the prime of
life and on the high wave of popularity.
Miss Herbert is very pretty girl of 23,
she has quantities of light, fluffy hair and
kind blue eyes. She is always well
