bareheaded runners mingle in confu-
sion; and against background Of
these picturesque elements, two figures
stand outlined.
There is the oriental woman, with
her shambling gait and her veil drawn
over her face, as in the Biblical days.
There is the clear-eyed English girl,
whose face is toward the future, as her
sister is toward the past.
There is powder on the face gen.
orally; the climate is uncertain and the
drinking water is bad. But it is face
good to look upon and the clothing is
worth more than glance.
Bicycle riding there is none; horse
back riding much. The Calpe hunt,
over the line in the Spanish hills, has
given these fair women sure, firm seats
in the saddle. Many of them use re-
vcrsible saddles to correct any perma-
nent curvature of the spine, so much
ore they afield. The long skirt is nc
longer de riguer. The skirt is short and
fairly scant, clearing the boot tops, the
hat is derby, the collar standing
choker without the rundown points.
Color: Black most in favor; mixed
browns and dark grays, not uncom-
mon concession in the warmer sun.
/ may add that before leaving New
York, where the riding season had just
begun, noted with pleasure the grow
ing use of the short-skirted riding
habit. do not think we shall ever sec
the long-sliirted riding suit again.
Good old New York! The name re.
minds me of the merry crew where
with l sailed week ago. do not think
i saw on shipboard a novelty in cos
tune save one-a deck rug sewn into
the shape of bag and fastened over
with buttons. 1t was fashioned out OF
dark. brown and green plaid cloth, and
when a brown eyed lady with brown
beef-eater hat aloft crawled into 1t and
buttoned it with big tassel buttonswith
fringe on the rug, she looked more ship
shape than the other damsels with wind
blown skirts or dragging blankets. Oi
course there were girls in fascinatorf
and girls in Capuchin hoods and girls
in fuzzy wuzzy gray REFERS; but then
there always are.
And there are always pretty girls
where there are soldiers. In Gibraltar
there are 5000 of the latter, and the
former are garrison pets to an extent
impossible elsewhere. Think what any
American town would be were one
quarter of It's people soldiers.
