from Louisiana, think, and looks not un-
like her southern sister, Mrs James
Brown Potter. Well upon a spindle
legged Josephine table in that sitting
room, there is a straw hat, with the blue
ribbon of Yale around it. and inside the
hat there are the sweetest bon-bons, of
which a supply is sent daily by him from
whom the hat was wrested. Upon the
wall there hangs hat, glOritied by paint
ed daisies, and another one trimmed with
natural flowers also sent daily. Upon the
floor, daintily lined with blue satin, is a
hat which must have been worn by a
youthful Daniel Webster 1t is so very
large! And in the hat there sleeps-the
Louisiana girls pet poodle.
There have been fads and fads. But
this summer the straw hat fad RACES
above and beyond them all.
GIRLS WHO LOVE HORSES.
Saratogas the home of pretty horses.
The horses are as spirited here as in
Kentucky They are so proud to draw
the handsome carriages to which they
are harnessed, that they hold up their
heads without a shadow of a check rein
to support the arching neck.
All the matrons and girls of Saratoga
ride horseback Banker Morosinis
daughter drives a smart tandem and
is clever with the reins of a four-in-
hand And so is Mrs. Berry Wall.
But in Saratoga, as in Newport and
LenoX, it is considered much the sweller
thing to drive a spanking team than to
guide the reins on horseback, or even to
direct a tandem. The number of pretty
women who drive out each afternoon be-
hind pair of handsome horses is almost
past counting. They wear Worth dresses,
too, these horse-women and their driving
gloves are fine kid. Coarse gloves ma Ike
the hands look too large! With the Worth
n, ,sis hi
hat, because it is easy to keep in place,
even in a driving wind and is so univer-
sally becoming. And, besides, did not
Eulalie drive around Newport in a red
sailor hatt
Every summer there comes to Sara
tOga a very distinguished man of dark
mien, and fair young woman who must
have been born in the tropics, for she
seems slight and sensitive to the cold.
They arrived at Saratoga last week
from the Adirondacks, and are still
spending the early summer days enjoying
the superb Saratoga roads and the
beauty of the lake Their winter home is
in North Carolina, not far from George
Gould's place. But while here, the man
resolutely refuses to register his name
for, as he says: 1T will give unpleasant
publicity to our trip, when we are trying
to travel incOg" Nevertheless, it has
been discovered that the handsome, dark
bearded man is one of the great Roths-
child family, and that, when not in North
Carolina or Saratoga, he is enjoying life
at his London home.
sARATOGA's PRETTY CHILDREN.
Saratoga, and its neighbor, Mount Mo
Oregon, rejoice in the possession of some
of the most beautiful children in America.
1t is u paradise for them here.
and they grow sturdy and handsome, pad
ding in the lake and drinking the spring
waters.
William j. Arkell, the owner of Mount
McGregOr, has two lovely children, James
and Marguerite; and his brother, Bart
lett, has d fine boy, Clarke Every day
the Arkeu children, with James as
oarsman, and ''Dockie" Burnapp,
their cousin, as cOXswain, are
seen vOyagirg upon Saratoga lake,
while the elders enjoy their fun from the
shore.
The old habitues of Saratoga have al
ready gathered for the racing. You are
sure to see among them Berry Wall, Col.
Bob Ingersoll, Denman Thompson,
Freddie Gerhard, Abe Hummel and, this
year, Richard Croker.
AS the boys flippantly remark, "You
can pay your money and you can take
your choice Of the side in which you Will
view Saratoga 1t may be a Longing
place-quite rural. Or a gay social CEN
ter. Or a mad sporting whirl.
The lovers Of Saratoga say that the Spa
needs only two things to make it next to
heaven. First, to have the Duke of YER
aqua live here half the year, as he talks of
doing. And second, to have Mrs. Cleve-
land, Baby Ruth and Co. summer here in
stead of at Grey Gables Then Newport,
LenoX and Tuxedo may fiaunt their PIN
ions in vain. AUGUSTA PRESCOTT.
