don't see how she'll stand it all. She
certainly will have to go away early in

discarded the white French muslin with
sleeves, square open neck and high
back in which she had danced at the
Monday Evenings and wore for the first
time a low -nccked and short sleeve
dress. Now you start wearing satin

fourteen or fifteen, and by the time you
are ready to be presented you have
worn frocks of every color and material
to be found.
