These are the days when a girl in white is a refreshing sight. When the motor nan, who has our sympathy in the winter, has our envy. When the stores might as well close at 1 o'clock for all the trade they have after that, hour. When we take no interest in the latest fad for the winter, the velvet gown. When the city dudes shave their heads so close that you think the opera tion must have been done with sand paper. When the real summer girl al ways flirts. She curt help it. The germs of flirtation float on the summer breezes, and are nourished by the moon's silvery rays. When the young men, whose hearts she ensnares, will tell you she isn't to blame even after she has jilted them she could only be a sister to them. They are glad to get her even on that basis.- They like her, and will be glad to be an usher at her Fall wedding, when she marries the lucky dog who has been working in his-city office all summer while they have been running after this most alluring of butterflies.

Mr. Baldwin ia the last man to refuse to parley; but he was in a hurry just then. Moreover, a lady's safety depended on him. Crack went the whip. The horse jumped. The man at his head waa knocked down. Mr. Baldwin and the lady whirled by and the horse galloped like mad. They reached a place ot safety. The lady beamed with grati tude. Mr. Baldwin settled back with a comfortable feeling of self-satisfaction. Had Mr. Baldwin stopped to examine the highwaymen he would have dis covered that one looked like C. P.
