The Summe er Girl.

The summer girl as an institution
is one Of the triumphant successes
OF the Nineteenth Century. The
variety OF phases in which she mani
tests herself is infinite, and each
succeeding one more uniquely appeals
to the admiration of man than it's
predecessor. The smartest and most
taking OF her dress vagaries is new
gown known as the Eton Athlet lca,
which is made in navy blue serge or
rough weather proof cheviot OF mixed
colors. The plain skirt has q leather
binding and three narrow straps
buckled around it, and the Eton coat
is bound with leather. The coat is
lined with gay taffeta silk and opens
over a ''decolle1e waistcoat," cut like
an evening waistcoat, OF blue or white
plque or blue wool vestine, powdered
with white dots. The very mannisn
shirt may be OF white or colored
material ls closed with a single stud,
and is, like the linked cuffs, q noble
example OF the laundress' skill and
art.
A conspicuous and amusing feature
OF the gown IS apocket cut in a curve
in the skirt on either side, Just as near
the location OF q mans trousers
pocket as feminine dress will admit.

attached according to the most
approved hygienio regulations and
