formerly.
AS there is nothing so conducive to
perfect comfort on hot summers
day than a pleasantly hung hammock.
no one should go to the country with
out one. In the shops they are show
ing tiny ones for babies, and many
doctors advocate letting the little ones
sleep in a properly hung hammock
during the warm nights. on the theory
that they are more healthful than over
heated cribs. with hair mattress and
feather pillows.
Tents are displayed of all kinds and
descriptions. To those in possession of
large lawn or golf links tents placed

baked stretch. Many swinging chairs
are fashioned somewhat like tents and
are considered quite boon for grand
