they do now, and that more in the
way of light and pretty summer attire
than heavy and costly materials There
are so many different ways of dress
ing well that it would require a whole
book to explain them all. But the
whole gist of it is to dress according
to the demands Of the surroundings.
So, as Asbury is warm and is sociable
and there are so many delightful shady
places to sit in and have the ever
beautiful trees and shrubbery as a
background, and as the board walk
and hotel piazzas afford so excellent
chance to show ones prettiest things,
it is no wonder that many new gowns
Of special beauty find their OppOr-
| tunity there
I have in my minds eye lovely
organdie in the softest Of resada green,
with darker standings Of the same
color as design. The whole is so cool
and pleasing to the eye that one could
believe that in far off France the de-
signer had by some occult vision seen
the bright sand and glazing beach and
thought out this dress to repose the
eyes from too much sun. It is as cool
as the waves that one sees curling up
forever ready to fall in snowy foam.
Well, poetry aside, this gown is cool
to the sight as we'll as to the sense, and
being so it is a thing Of beauty and
will be joy until it gets some Of that
same salt water on it.
SO this dress is Of organdie, and we
know the color. The form now inter
ests US. The skirt has two founces,
the lower one deeper than the other,
and each is tucked at the top, the fine
tucks running out about three inches
from the top. At the bottom is a full
ruffle made Of inch wide black chan
| tilly, and at the top is waved chan
| lilly insertion. Down the center Of the
| front is line of narrow insertion, also
| black. The waist is tucked in the
same general way and has the lace
gallOOn set around it, as can be seen
| by the illustration. 1t is open in front
| to snow a chemisette of white chiffon,
and there are some black velvet bows
and a wide velvet belt. The. sleeves
are flowing with white chiffon under
sleeves, and these have velvet bands.
| The hat to match is OF smoked straw
with black velvet ribbon and black
] plume. The hat has double brim, and
| between the two is a twist Of resada
| tulle.
| There are few white gowns at AS
bury. Whether Mr.. Bradley has barred
them or not do not know, but there
| oEoo no mo
suits, and of all the ugly things on
earth or in the sea these are the most
horrible. But as an offset there are lots
of blue and red duck suits for walking,
and they are really smart and ado
much to the landscape. Anyhow AS
bury is a good place to be in, and II
| there are few magnificent brocades ana
point lace trimmings and rivieres OF
diamonds there are plenty pretty cos
tunes and girls to wear them. Indeed
I think that Of all the summer resorts
Asbury can show the greatest NUMBER
Of beauties-babies and women. And
they all look as if life had been found
worth the living.
Among some of the gowns seen at
the evening promenade there was one
worth mention as exceedingly tasteful
| and elegant. It was Of a delicate
shrimp pink yelling, and there were
three ripple fiounces, each six inches
deep. Each had row of white trou-
trou insertion, and through this was
| run black velvet ribbon. It was not
half an inch wide and depended more
on the flneness than the color for eff
