FOR OUR
SMALL PEOPLE.
The Naughty LItile Girl.

She is homely. she Is tricky:
And ] am greatly grieved TO tell.
Her hands are always sticky
With a chocolate caramel.
Her dolly's battered features
Speak Of many a frantic hurl.
She's a terror OF her teachers
That naughty little girl.
She can whoop like a Comanche,
You can hear her round the square;
Further-like an Indian She
Often creeps and pulls my hair.
And she steals into my study.
And she turns my books a-whirl;
And her boots are always muddy
That naughty little girl.
She dotes upon bananas.
And she smears them on my knees.
She peppers my Havanas,
And delights 10 hear me sneeze.
Yet-why / can't discover
Spite Of every tangled curl,
She's a darling. and | love her
That naughty little girl.

that are newer. Nevertheless there arc
some pretty Scotch ginghams which are
very dainty, and are preferred by some
on account of their durability. These
are made simply, with round gathered
waists and skirts, and with velvet or
satin stocks and belts. or with the en-
broidery collarette. This last style IS es-
pecially commendable because the col
larette Is so easily removed and laund-
cred without disturbing the. rest Of the
dress.
The enthusiasm manifested over the
progress Of the different baseball clubs
ensures an all-summer interest IN out
door sports. Then there is the yacht
race I'm September 10 bring out all the
fash.onables in their pretty yachting
costumes. For. though they do not
take part in the actual racing, they must
be dressed in keeping. like the spectators
at tennis game. who never lift racquet.
but always wear a tennis suit. Watching
suits are made Of duck. as well as the
twilled hannels that are considered the
correct thing: but the fannels are pre-
ferable. because they are woollen. Cream
colored nannels for catching gowns and
tennis suits are marked 70 cents a yard.
Some have fine black stripes at inter
walls Of a half inch. They are made much
as they always were, with blazers to be
worn with shirt waists; but some intro
duce striped vests and plastrons that
are very nautical in their 1ppe irance.
The new sets OF blue enamel cuff but
tons and studs are very fashionable ami
may be bought for from s. 10 s.. These
are pretty I'm both cotton and flannel
shirt fronts.
Yachting belts are made with silver
buckles in anchor and spar designs. a
pretty brown belt. very wide. looked like
duck. but was much thicker, and had
slim gold buckle.
Children's outing suits are Of the same
material as those of older persons. The
boys are al sailors. so far as costume
goes. no matter whether they are dress
ed for a party or for a romp Ia the
sand. Girls are not so nautical In their
dress. but their ordinary dresses have an
appearance about them Of being ready for
business which suggests any agreeable
outdoor sport on the whole IT may
be safely said that this is an outing as
well as a white season. and it is to be
hoped that the weather will be propitious
for both.
