WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
There are two kinds Of summer girl.
The pretty summer girl, and the girl
who is not pretty.
The pretty girl, besides being pretty in
the face. is attractive IN figure and form.
And particularly IL she attractive in COM
plexion.
Complexion. In the summer time. does
not mean the skin of the face merely. nor
the texture Of the hands and arms.
But II means the shoulders as well. and
the throat and neck. and all the pretty
curves Of the bust line
The summer garb. as 1t IL worn this year,
leaves the neck and throat and shoulders
exposed. not to mention the hands and
arm:.
And talk as you will, pirate as you may.
denounce as you please. and dress as you
like, It is q fact that the dresses Of the
season are transparent and that all women
wear these transparencies.
That the face must be kept nice and
snooth and of pretty color. is understood.
But that the throat must also be we'll
shaped and of fine. nice texture, Is not al
ways 30 well known.
And the shoulders must be correspond
iEgly nice and the back Of the neck and
the back itself. II one is to go decollete.
The summer girl who is getting into the
beauty swim will find quite a serious task
before her. for not only will she be con-
fronIed with the complexion problem. as
applied TO her face. but to a great deal
more
The beauty rule Is that the complexion
Of the face shall be a peaches and cream.
OF the neck the color shall be q deeper
cream. while the throat and shoulders must
b q lily white.
The ears may be red, redder than tho
cheeks and the lips are. Of course. scarlet.
As for the arms, they should be marbl-
esque. absolutely white. and almost glisten-
ing in their perfection Of snowy beauty.
WHAT E AIR WILL DO.
Once having whitened the arms and
neck, they must be treated again and again,
Tor they do not hold their new color.
Lke the face. they become tanned and
particularly does the neck grow dark in
color: and as for the shoulders, they are
apt to take on a pimply. blistered look that
Il very far from being pretty.
The elements in the summer time are all
against the preservation Of the neck. And
this Il Just at a season when Thin gowns
demand that the skin shall look nice.
But what Il one to do when there arc

and when the sea, beating upon the throat,

the nature of the obligation which the
republican party of Minnesota is Under to
Judge Morris. All who are familiar with
the circumstances surrounding his candi-
dacy for the house against Charles A.
Towne in 1896 will understand this obli-
cation fully. The delegation, through the
pending bill, is simply trying to repay Nor
ris for his sacrifice for the party at a
time of pressing need in accordance with
an understanding reached several years
ago. Should the Brill candidacy promise
to become, serious enough to embarrass
Morris chances, it is seasy to see why
the delegation may not try to bring the
bill to a vote on final passage. Having
been reported from the house judiciary
committee last Friday, the bill Is now

If geography is to be consulted. The ap-

strengthen the federal bench of Mlnne-

is thourouehly familiar with maritime law
and with the Indian question, and these
two matters would make up the great
bulk Of hts work as federal judge. There
is no lawyer in Minnesota more thoroughly
informed on these two subjects than Judge
Morris.
Railroads Against Norris ,.,:
But there is still another side to this
question. It is now whispered that the
railroad influences Of the state-especially
those that opposed Governor Van SAINT
are opposed to the selection of Morris, be-
cause on the stump last campaign he said
in his Enthusiastically straightforward
fashion, a good many things in favor OF
Van SAINT and against his railroad opposi-

It Is not charged that Brill is ''close" tc

would favor them; but the railroads don't
