 The unusual avocation of porter Is adopted by not few of the native women of the village during this period. It is indeed a strange sight to westerner to see women car rying heavy luggage from hotel to de- pot for men as well as for women tourists.
 The stalwart, strong looking men travellers were leaving Bayreuth after having heard the cycle of operas.

 lete than those we wear today. From a profile view the back of her dress is cut like a S5 bill. As for the narrow skirt
 of today, faded daffodil satin gown belonging to this same cousin reveals the fact that the Bolster skirt could be given cards and spades and then be beaten. Of course, the sharp lines of , the satin underslp were covered with | multitudinous draperies of diaphanous chiffons, to be sure, but the tube effect
