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. Mattson Baldwin has won new
laurels as knight and hero. The sole
protection of a fair lady, he lately
brought his companion and himself un
scathed out of what appeared to be a
deadly encounter with bold highway
men. Mr. Baldwin was driving, and the
hour was not as early as it had been
earlier in the evening. He was bowling
along right merrily, whispering sweet
nothings or somethings, as the case
might be, to the beautiful lady whose
escort he was. He, cached the corner
of Fourteenth and E streets. "HiBt!
What is that?" Mr. Baldwin turned
pale. The lady clutched his arm. Two
men sprang out of the darkness. They
were desperate looking characters, and
their manner was dictatorial, and they
flourished long, shining guns. One man
grabbed the horse. The other com
menced to parley with Mr. Baldwin.
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. A.
