To your last question, emphaucaIIy
No. To the query preceding il. ] am
forced 10 answer, regretfuuy, in the al
hTmauve.
Do know her? You may as we'll ask
me If 1 ever take my walks abroad in
the heated term" AT fashionable re-
sorts or in country places. The summer
girl is ubiquitous, and / often find my
self blusLiug for her. When she is at
home, ia town, she is attractive 10 most
of us, especially when she is fond OF
US. To those she does not like. Our Girl
OF Today is inclined To be supercilious
and lofuly superior. Even when she
loves us, she has always the prevailing
American independence, and knows a
little bit more than other people. That
is because she is young and American,
and-forgive me if I say it-a college
girl. But she is we'll bred and observes
conventionalities She keeps the respect
of the men who know her, dances deco
rously at balls talks like an educated
persons at teas and receptions, and
walks the streets of her city with perfect
propriety and dignity-even if she does
swing her arms a little more than is
becoming.
But in the summer! That is another
story,
our Girl seems to think that, in laying
aside her fuFs and Leavyweight cloth
ing and donning the gauzy and dImy
fabrics of the warm season, she can lay
aside all restraint and adopt manners
that are as nimsy as her dresses ana
as scanty as the fashionable bathing
suit she affects. Were one who knew
aeT at home TO see her i'm this last
named garment, one would gasp with
length of the beach in long stockings.

q iaunty cap, the cynosure of admiring
ana critical eyes All the other girls and
many other women do the same thing.
and why should not she2 10 not. how
over, fancy that Our Girl has donned
this suit for bathing purposes only. On
The contrary. the surf bathing is merely
an excuse for the costume. Watch her
as she patrols the beach with one or
more young men, and with other Girls
clad III like fashion. One and all find a
sunny spot IN the sand and here they
lie and read. sing. laugh aud talk for
several hours at a time. After this sun
bath they take swim or romp in the
surf: then. again. they seek the sand.

thoroughly coated with the gritty
particles, when another DIP IS neces-
