The summer girl who is clever, uses
discrimination in the choice of the
gowns she wears, selecting them not
only with a view to their appropriate
ness for the occasion. but with refer
ence and Difference to the taste of the
man who escorts her.
There are many types of the sum
mer girl, each OF which sooner or ia
ter finds it's affinity in some masculine
soul. There is no better time for find
ing ones affinity than these warm
summer days, when business is dull
and young people have nothing to do
but seek one another's society and en-
joy the beauties of nature Not that
every summer girl IS actually seeking
her affinity, but she will have a better
time if she goes about with q, person
who is reasonably congenial.
However true the old saying, that
handsome is as handsome does" it
is a fact that first impressions at sum-
mer resorts are made more by out
ward appearance than by the sweet
and loveable dispositions Of the would
be impressionist.
The general makeup of a girl is of
far more Importance than anything else
if she wishes the admiration of the
summer man in society. Nest girls are
naturally types of one kind or another
and they would do we'll to accept the
fact and develop themselves to the ut
most in their own particular lines. A
very pretty fancy to women of fash
ion who are devoted to bicycling is to
give a name 20 their wheess. These
names are engraved upon silver plate
and attached to some part of the wheel.
A popular New York belle started the
fad. and the pretty title Fleet Wing
is the name by which she always re-
fers to her pet steed. Another fad
which IS quite as popular is that of
selecting a motto, and some are very
appropriate. Prose and poetry are
both ransacked for quotations. Among
the best yet seen are:
Turn, turn, my WHEEL What is
begun at daybreak must at dark be
DONE
"Sir, she can turn and turn and yet
go on and turn again"
I'VE rode; it seemed my spirit flew;
saw other regions, cities new, as the
world rushed by on either side"
Another popular fancy is a. row of
tiny silver sleigh bells on a band fast
ened across the handle bar. The mer-
ry jingle Of the bells is much liked by
the fair rider.
The latest news from Paris says that
ribbon will be the queen OF the winter
carnival of fashion. The privileged few
who have gazen up the Paris gowns
designed for early fall wear report
that even the tailor made tweeds and
cheviots have ribbon girdles and col
lars Many Of the belts are practically
eorselets. sewed in the under-arm
seams, and sloped over the back and
front of the bodice to a point. Others
seem to be widths of ribbon wound
two or three times about the waist and
fastening in a huge bow on the left
side. Sometimes from this bow long
ends fall all the way to the bottom cf
the shirt. The result of this ribbon
treatment is to give a short wasted
effect 20 the wearer. so that even the
tailor made damsel is a. modified EN-
pire pictures.
The ribbon collar Of the autumn will
not be the stock of the past season. 1t
viii be, on the contrary, a ruche of
rather wide, finely pleated ribbon and
will stand upright about the throat in
fashion suggestive of the ruff of good
Queen Bess. Flaring cuffs of pleated
ribbon stand out about the wrists Of
