Yachting; Bathing? CIaWn.es.
T la July before yachting and
? I T bathing clothes are Id demand,
2sJt n consequence they save
5f-i"J& th air of midsummer.
'' Whit hi as much used as ever.
In pique, duck, canvas and serge, It
ah a pea many smart llttje skirts, which the
girl up to popular aea ways tops at cool
moments with short Jackets of blue serge,
(ay with brass buttons. Again, there are
all-whlt dresses touched with scarlet, or
sailor blues trimmed with white, spotted
With red, may be employed In small quan
tities to glorify either dark blue or black.
In fact, h red, blue or white Is used,
the effect Beems at once nautical, whllo
as. open sailor collar and white canvas
cape and shoes seem to complete ft. The
main things to avoid at sea are frills and
furbelows, and, for the rest, the sailor girl
wise In her generation chooses textures
that withstand sea air. What avails the
finest yachting dress ever msde if It wilts
With the first gale, which thlnjy woven,
starched materials are bound to do. In
Short, go to the Bailor lad himself for tex
tures, for the serges, flannels and canvas
which Jack Tar affects can stand all
Weather, wind aad wave.
Fundamentally, the new yachting and
boating gowns are the same, with the
exception that striped stuffs figure exten
sively In boating gear. Ilalr-strtped Sin
nets a black or colored line on white
seem to take precedence over other pat
tern and materials. The suit comprbies
a coat and skirt the coat In the loose
Ssnque cut of the serge yachting Jacket
and the skirt very full; while straw sailors
with ribbon bands and short ends seem to
be the favorite headgeur.
The gown for yachting may be built on
similar lines, but the extreme looseness
of the boating waist la substituted by a
vnr taut effect. From heed to toe the
yachting girl must be trim, neatly rigged,
and know "how to wear her sails."
Very splendid are the effects of some of
the new sea toilettes, while others are
marked by a childish simplicity. Except
that their skirt and sleeves are longer,
some little frocks of blue flannel, with
White braid trimmings, might serve In a
curtailed state for bathing, for hi genre
they are the same. Newer and more ele
gant costumes show In two or more tlors,
while several pleated skirts were seen
leaded at the hem, so that they might
preserve a trim effect
Red yachting gowns are affected by some
mart women who get their authority from
bewildering toilettes worn at Cowes and
same gay French watering places that are
patronised by fashionable yachting folk.
White- may be used In combination with,
thfa blazing color, but the fad is to have
only the shield (the dickey over which the
ailor blouse opens) and shoes and cap
White. The effect of such a toilette upon
dancing waters hi gay, and red Is so much
liked at sea that, with white costumes,
some yachtswomen have bead and foot
gear In this rolor. Scarlet Is a very good
material such as all-wool bunting or
French serge otherwise the first spraying
will damage Its charm.
Indeed, all things considered, navy blue
ts the best sea. color yet tried, and there
are so many ways of varying Its sombre
Dees that It never seems monotonous. For
examples white bands on the skirt and a
white sailor collar and cuffs for the blouse
which, of course, should open over a
White shield give a pretty effect. Blua
flannel may be combined with a striped or
spotted one In many ways, though the
patterned part moat be confined to the
trimming.
A smart French dress, m a combination
of this sort, shows a shirtwaist and bor
ders of white, spotted with red. The short
skirt Is la two flounces, bordered with
the white and red, and for chilly weather
a eape edged In the same way is arranged
for the shoulders.
With, all of the eon (acted things eos

la less sailor-like than with the ordinary
getnp. But yachting traditions are pre
served In the shortness of the skirt, which
la not allowed to touch the deck, and any
sailor detail that can be employed Is used.
Taa sleeves of must of the frocks run to a
smallish bishop shape, but la one Instance

Yachting gowns for brides are sometimes
ridiculously fine, aad with exquisitely
handsome white serges and flannels are
sometimes seen narrow braids aad nantl

e rally the easiest to please In her sea
clothes. A pleated skirt of blue wool of
some sort, a brass buttoned reefer to
match, and white canvas cap and shoes
now constitute her favorite get-up, with
pretty white shirt waists Rnd smart veils
for shore use. She finds knlcker trousers

eately shadowed with apple blossoms. With
this material, left-green panne velvet la em
ployed for the girdle, and some flat bows
are placed each side of the ekhrt apron.
A singular and delightful trend of the
new evening dresses Is toward a gentle
etatellness. Robe effects are employed for
skirts, the side breadths seeming to hang
loose over the front, and giving It the look
of a petticoat. A number of bodices have
berthas and short sleeves made entirely of
Smart luncheon parties are often given
aboard yachts, whether the craft ts an
chored or sailing, and for these functions
costumes are frequently of an elegant
watering place description. The dresses
are even more splendid when the breakfast
Is at the clubhouse, and, though the men
never vary their getup of duck and blue
flannel, the toi:ettes of the women on such
occasions are some times as fine as for a
garden party. Parasols of a very decora-

Yachting parasols are among the novel
ties for fins dresses. They omdo In all
scarlet or white,, with wooden bandies
sometimes carved like the keel of a boat.
The red ones are beautiful with white
gowns, and under the glowing mushroom a
pretty sunburned face will take on a new
piquancy.
Not the least Important features of yacht
ing talk are the little costumes for the
bops, which are so brilliant a part of the
yachting season. These are simp's In make
and material for the younger wearers,
the ribbon-trimmed organdies and Swisses
and muslins going well with the white duck
trousers and blue flannel coats of the mas
culine dancers. la fact It seems quite
the thing for young matrons and elderly
maidens to do the beat part of the dressing
at the yacht dance which fact sometimes
makes the wedded woman a dangerous rival.
Two radiant gowns lately designed for
yoathful chaperons display some of the
quaint aad captivating loaches of the sea

toy-like ornaments for the hair. LJttla
wreaths of small artificial flowers axe worn
at the side or top of the head, and there
are three and two and single-row ban

the sides with knob-like rosettes of the

billowy with lace, lift to reveal petticoats
even more bewildering. Large, flower
trimmed hats are much admired, and, when
the complexion can bear It, they are often
In a single brilliant color. The black hat
