Summer hath put the imperial rose away,

"A friend lately returned from
Washington speaks of the pretty
custom there of girls of all ages and
classes going about on warm evenings
: sans hats, sans gloves, sans wraps
and above all sans collars, their throats
: being barred to the evening zephers.
. OF course they do not wear decollette
gowns on the street, but they have the
coolest looking gowns cut modestly
about the neck in v or square or
round and the comfort thus derived is
as every woman knows inestimable.
The street cars in the evening are filled
with pleasure seekers and the woman
with the hat and collar is the excep
tion to the rule. Think OF the delight
OF sitting in the car and not being
: obliged to grab convulsively at your
hat every time breeze blows. Per.
: haps some day this custom will be
/ adopted here. Toledo Courier.
