For frocks to wear on the cool days
OF summer we find demi-season models

Pique, also, is a material that is warm
enough for quite low temperature.
We observed one mohair dress that
was exceedingly pretty: it was of blue,
with a pointed yoke smoked IN lighter
blue, the belt was white, embroidered
in blue, the skirt was shocked three
inches at, the waist line, and the
sleeves were shocked from elbow to

outdoor life is an established fact no
longer such novelty is attempted, the
dressing is more quiet. One notices it
particularly in automobile costuming.
Of course the leather characterizing
the wardrobe of many autoists differs
decidedly from ordinary fabrics, but
not all make use of the leather. One
sees in the parks and on the country
roads many autoists whose dress is
very like the usual travelling dress, and
one that. speeds this summer may feel
herself appropriately attired in a trim
tailored suit. The checks are especial

PRETTY ROMANcES IN WHICH MILLION

SETS Blue FLOODED TONGUES WAGGNG,
A Common Occurrence Which, Hub Society Refuses

Boston.-The little god, Cupid. has
set this city by the ears again as only
Cupid can every now and again. The
pranks OF the little archer have had
blue-blooded Boston at his mercy time
after time, but this latest escapade
has beaten all other efforts, and has
lott society In state Of collapse from
which it is not expected to recover
soon.
Boston society-the society which
lives in the alphabetical streets Of the
Back Bay, is more exclusive than q
hermit, that graduates from Harvard
to State street and from the Puritan
club to the Somerset-is shocked
again.
1t is the same old shock-the shock
that hits Boston just so often and
knocks its eyeglasses oft-a Boston
Bluestocklng has gone and married a
shopgirl.
According to the Boston CORE
spondent of the New York World you
would think that Boston would be
used to such an occurrence by this
time. Harrison Grey Otis started it
when he chose the daughter of an
East Boston baker for his bride, and
since that day probably no less than
20 scions of old Puritan families have
found their fates behind the counters
at Jordan's or Whites or even
Houghton
But Boston simply won't get used
to it; it insists on being shocked
every time it happens, hence the fact
that Marlborough street resounds with
''Did-you-evers" and "I-want-to-
knows" and even the flowers in the
public gardens are shaken.
This time the shockers are the
usual characters: Harvard man, tall.
handsome, blue-blooded, broker, rich,
20 years old. -
Shopgirl, poor, beautiful, young,
good, of humble parentage.
Marries Machinist's Daughter.
Names? Oh, yes, that is a detail,
though the case is so like all the
others Of the past that any names
might do This time, however, the
young man happens to be an Adams,
which is very, very important among
Boston names, as everyone knows.
He is only an Adams by the second
marriage Of his mother, however, and
retains his fathers name Of Clapp-
William F. Clapp in full, age %, son
Of Mrs. Samuel G. Adams, of No. 2S4
Marlborough street. The bride was
Miss Ellen Gertrude Reise; her father
is simply machinist at the govern
ment arsenal in WATERFOWL.
It Is the most complete of romances,
for it grew out OF another of the same
kind, in which Miss ,Reise's twin sis
ter was one Of the principals. So,
to tell it correctly, the first romance
must be referred to first.
The father of the twin girls, Mary
J. and Ellen Gertrude REESE, was a
sergeant in the army, stationed in San
Francisco. when the girls were born,
q years ago. He was good soldier,
but better father, so when he could

They were at the same counter, looked
very much alike, and this fact and
their beauty made them much talked
about.
One day a young man, Horatio
Bigelow-another good old Boston
name-and the son Of Albert S. Bige-
low, the copper millionaire, saw the
girls. He was attracted. by their
beauty, but managed to choose be-
tween them, and selected Mary as
the object of his alteration at first
sight.

The bride was on her vacation from
the store, and went to Newport to spend
it. So did young Bigelow. On Septem-
Der it was time for him to start on his
trip around the world, and off to San
Francisco he went From there he and
his bride telegraphed the Bigelows in
Boston that the wedding had taken
place and also informed the brides
parents Then they went aboard the
vessel to Japan and let the families do
all the worrying.
OF course there was something ter.

got home the tempest had died down,
