A salt sea bath in the tub Is very easy

that will never 90 nearer the sea than the

an attractive bathing outfit by giving
time and thought to its preparation.

The color most becoming must be chosen,
and all goods and trimmings must be care

fault is found In many Of the ready made

There are oenscrs who wall aloud at the
