Bathing by the Clock.
Down at Atlantic City you go in bathing
according to the clock, and not according
to the tide. 1t is an exceedingly humorous
scheme, but 1t has been adhered to for
years. 1t makes no difference II the tide
is out so far that you require a cable car
to get to it, II o'clock is the bathing hour.
You may point out that you should prefer
to wait. say until 3 o'clock in the after
noon, when the tide is to be in and the
proper sort of surf shall be booming on the
beach. Well. nobody is going to prevent
you from going in at that hour, says the
hotel proprietor or the bathing house man
you talking to, but was not the after
noon made for sleep?
The Atlantic City bath lasts for solid
two hours. At l o'clock. almost as if il

sudden rush for the bath houses-on week
days. that is, when excursionistS are few.
The excursionists are to be picked, the
feminine excursionists, that is to say-ac-
cording to the bathing house keepers-by

elaboration 1t Is the .excursioning girl
who wears the really stunning bathing suit
at Atlantic City. She has usually taken it
there on account of its splendor and the
knowledge she possesses that she may wear
1t for one bath with impunity. This is al
so the girl who, with her hair ilying to
the zephyrs. rides a diamond frame wheel
up and down the beach, clad in her bewil-
dering bathing costume. Whei she does
this. it Is interesting to watch the express
sions on the faces of the nearby watching
women, especially those whose bathing

Women mt the Show Hotels.
But it is in the hotels and on the board
walk that the genuine life of Atlantic City
is led. In fact. majority of the girls and
women living at the more gorgeous of the
hotels do not go into the water at all,
more particularly if they are unfortunate
enough to possess straight Or stringy hair.
Indeed, strong and determined effort is
