What would you say of a fifteen-cent straw hat trimmed with white mosqul- to netting? The Newport maid need not be told how to mamke herself be- witching. She goes over to Paris and is made so whether she will or not. But the average girl who gets week or so off in the country or at the sea shore, and who has so hard a time keeping herself decent for the winter wardrobe that all she can hope to do for the summer is to get shirt waist or so and wear them with her old win ter skirts, it's an idea for her.
