"BAB" AT NARRAGANSBTT.
X'AIUSOJOCBNERSATNEWENGIAD'S
POPnLAB BETEEAT.
The Narrncnnsott Girl and ECor "Best
Boy" She Sleopg Two Hours Out of the
Twonty-four Atlilotlc to tho Core of
Bier Heart.
From our Regular Correspondent.
NAitRAtjANSETT Pxeh. Sept. 0. "Water, water
ovorywhere, and not a drop to drink," is tho cry
of tho younpr woman who Is In tho swim hero.
Before sho goes in sho has a champasrno cocktail
to buoy her up, and just after sho comes out hor
best boy (that's what sho calls him 'nowadays)
has a milk punch strong with brandy and
daintily covered with nutmeR to fetch her up.
Tho Narrat? ansctt girl Booms to bo in continual
need of a stimulant, which, whon you remember
that sho gets about two hours' sleep out of tho
uvuiiij-iimr, is not surprising, aue is athletio
to tho coro of her heart; that is, if sho has a
heart, and not an enlarged musolo in its place.
Sho adores tho young man who can swim out
until everybody thinks he's drowned, and all tho
nervous women are crying, as sho does tho one
who is heard slngiDg a lively chorus about 7
o'clock in tho morainar, when ho presents a most
tumbled appearance.
NAHRAQANSETT SLANCJ.
Sho is very Intimate with one woman, and no
more; and tho two surround thomsolVos with a
sot of men that they beautifully call "our
gang." Slang at Narragansott is as tough as
that on tho Bowery, and tho young woman who
can speak it with greatest easo and Huoncy la
esteemed as being of high intelligence and
culture. There is only ono thing that particu
larly charms mo about tho girls horo, and that
is thoy aro healthy. I think it must bo tho air
and ttio sea, and not tho bad manners and fast
ness that provokes this. Trouvlllo is continu
ally suggested by this place, and yet, whilo tho
French woman is up to all sorts of naughtiness,
sho doesn't vulgarize horsolf as do tho girls horo.
MEN WHO PREFER LOVE TO MARIUAOE.
A young raatrou who is very gay was asked
not very long ago whero hor littlo daughter was,
and sho qulokly answered: "Well, certainly not
hero; I keep her in thn convent all summer. You
d0R.I' suppose I want her to grow up llko ono of
us?" Sho had certainly spoken her own judg
ment, and ono couldn't but wonder If tho
mother's caro of tho ohlld-her protecting it
evidences ot a better nature than showed on tho
surface. Tho young matron is undeniably tho
bollo. So few men caro to marry that thoy ilnd
it more comfortablo to make lovo to hor than
thoy do to say sweot nothings to a youug girl,
whoso parents muy ask him what his intentions
aro.
Tho fashionable man of to-day has nointen
tions oxcopt those of havlnga good time, and tho
young matron Js his boon companion. At a sup
per tho othor nlghtpuo of tho best known among
tho swell sot drank, for a bot, three bottles of
champagne, and then walked home aloue, un
supported, on very high-heeled shoes. She got
Jle.Fi bietlt WttS " I,alf S?,rold ftov buckles, on
which were engraved, "Would I wore with theo."
Now this was pretty larky, but wo know that tl o
end of tho century is reached when 'tis realized
that this i woman's husband was presont, and
thought it a great Jokol Agreut joke, indeed,
to take thosweetuessandlovollnessof a woman's
character, and niako her lower than tho deml
mondaine, at whom sho casts a look of disdain,
and who in reality is her equal, if not hor su
perior. THE SUMMER DEOr,ASSEE WOMAN,
Tho itfclitsste, tho woman that nobody knows
how or where to place, is very muoh to tho foio;
she wears tho biggest of hats tho longest of
plumes-tho gayest of colors and tho most con
spicuous of high-heeled shoes. Sho has taken on
a now dpdgo this year, aud is keeping quiet, con
sequently It is moro diflloult to llnd out jusl who
she is; so sho goes n round seeking whom sho

The only way to And her out Is to ask mon; and
tho only way you can And her outis to get a man
when ho is drunk, lor when ho is sober ho never
tells talcs outof school. Thoy aro funny follows,
but thoy have a special creed of honor that is
bettor than yours or mine: that is generalizing,
because, of course, individually wo aro tho fa
mous angels without wings; whilo genorally
well, wo havo our littlo weaknesses. For my
part, 1 always say, "Givo mo a man 1" I do not
mean this as an advertisement in tho papor. bo
oauso I don't think ho is that difficult to got yet.
But it is tho cry, backed by two thousand dol
lars, of a sweet creature hero who wears the
miniature of her grandfather on hor palpitating
bosom, and wonders why tho Lord has cursed
hor with tho laok of a husband. This is ono of
tho oases whero it isn't tho Lord it's man, wicked
man. Ho would havo nonoof her, notwithstand
ing sho Is ofloring tho boll boys two thousand
dollara for tho desired athlete
WHEN OLD AOE IS CUDDY.
Tho waters, as well as tho woods, aro full of
curious peoplo, and tho ancient maiden is ono of
tho most curious of them. At sixty-tlvo sho has
learned to dance, and sho will trip tho light fan
tastle with small boys, with tho superannuated
master of cereraonios-anything, in short, that
Mv-.no nuuDcia, miu uusu luiBo irenr, wuicn, in
hpr pxcitemont, will got a littlo awry, and sho
gloats on white muslin and pink ribbons. Sho is
gushing beyond expression, and nothing will
down hor oxcopt tho cool impertinonco of a
woman who tells her that sho doesn't want to
know her, and has no intontion whatever of in
cluding her in her circjo ofracquaintanceB. That
sounds rude, doesn't it? But it is solf-protection
at a summer watering-place.
Do they do anything but batho and drink and
llrthero? Oh, yes! Thero is many a beautiful
littlo gamo of pokor goes on in tho afternoon,
When madamo is supposed to bo taking hor nap
and tho group of swoot young things In exquisite
tea gowns lose i their money and their temper
alike i over that blissful American gamo that has
emptied bo many a purse and caused so many
naughty words to bo said.
Tho smart girl, who Is following tho English
fashion and rouging up to hor oyes. has gotton
tho real French dodge, and uses alovoly pink
decoction that stands tho water very well and
convinces pvorybody of tho reality of hor com
plexion. Hor head goes down undor tho water
..u .u uy, ia viKuruuoi- ruuueu, ana snows
to the i on-looker a deeper pink tingo than before,
that, if ho is raasouline, must convinco him of its
reality. If mon woron't innocent, what would
bocomoof us women?
TAir.OU.MADE CURLS.
Tho tallor-raado girl has turned up hor pretty
littlo noso at tho shirt front and gono In for Lon
don's latest-a skirt that is almost absolutely
tight ntting, a plain habit basque; there can bo
no angles about this young woman-in fact, sho
i zJii : """wuibii acuuur uungius to paint,
and which moans that hor back must bo that cu
rlous combination of curves and roundness, and
that her walk must bo tho ono that Helen took
when sho fascinated Paris. Tho tailors arc bo
coming great adopts in tho liberal uso of tho light
curled hair that rounds hips, nils in angles, and
makes tho scrawny girl moroly a slendor round
one. To bo too tat. or to suggest fat. is very bad
form; ono wants to bo just rounded; and when tho
artist says that-tho artist .n frocks, I moan-in
his complimentary tone you may consider your
self tho most complimontod of any woman who
has been nour him.
THE WCUIEST FORM OF ART.
Narragausott has developed tho knee. That is
to say, I don't supposo peoplo meaning women
woro without knees boforo, but it remains in this
case to make moro prominent the fact that lovely
woman had a rounded and whito ouo. Sho shows
It liberally in tho bath; sho swims in somo ms's

and tho leg, bare from the kneo down, with a
foot as pinka8ababys,battles against tho wavos
in such a way that all the oldorly gontlomon put
up their double oye-glasses, and tho younger ones
strain tholr oyes until it would seem as if it would
bo nocessary to got such glasses as "Pooping
Tom" used for thorn. With a oloso-fltting skirt
on tho swell girl walks so that her round, dim
pled knee actually makes an impression on tho
cloth, and mankind gazes at her as if tho highest
form of art had at last been reached,
Mon aro great on form. Good form. It's funny

A CniCAOO QIRIi'S TRIUMPH.
Nioo girls ? Yes, thoro aro somo nice girls here,
but tho nice girls don'Hook as if they woro hav
ing a good time, and tho unnico girls do. Somo
beautiful pranks havo been carried on not tho
least being that at a larky supper party whoro
each young woman put her loft slipper on tho
table I.don't mean with her foot in it to com
pare sizes; and, curiously enough, tho Chicago
girl's was tho smallest. All of tho other women
could havo eaten her, with sauce piquant, for ex

FASHIONS FOR MEN.
Washington men aro said to havo tho happy
knack of catching fashions on tho fly, adapting
them to themselves and modifying them to suit
our climatic conditions and individual tastes.
Thoy do thfs with a success which impresses tho
outsider with tho Idea that Washington has a
littlo head fashion bureau of her own. Tho fall
fashions for men this year aro not strikingly
odd, and may not therefore bo as closely fol
lowed as thoy wero when bludgeon-proportioned
sticks, twenty-four-inch trousers, and such other
monstrosities wero in vogue. Moderation marks
tho temperament of tho closing decado of the
nineteenth century. Tho women have given up
their bustles and big hats, and now tho young
men aro called on to place upon tho samo fune
ral pyre tho sticks which they havo carried with
so much laborious grace for sovoral seasons.
Sticks this year aro not large, they are unvar
nished, and their ornaments aro not are not at
all caudv. Tlinsn nr.i f)m nnl.f ,-, ,(....,.,
and within thoso bounds tho tasto of tho con
noisseur of stickwear may havo full sway with
out running against the, to him, inviolablo laws
of fashion. What promises to bo tho favorite is
a stick of dark wood, with nothinc mn t.hnn
a suggestion as to a head. Ono or two littlo
patches of oxidized silver carelessly affixed near
Its upper extremity, with perhaps a coll ring of
tho samo motal circling around it, is all tho or
namentation which will bo tolerated by fashion
able friends.
"No real gontleman will wear a mado-up
cravat," was what I heard a fashionable young
man say tho other day. Whether or not respect
ability depends to that extent upon such arbi
trary dictates of fashion It Is not my province to
determine. It is a fact, nevertheless, that it Is
a serious Impediment of casto to bo guilty of
uuvu uu. luuioujuuuu. .ntsuLua huu lour-iU-uanUS
win prevail mis iau, ana tho moro negligCo iu
appearance tho moro fashionable win their wear
ers bo considered. Pins aro not worn as largo
as thoy once wero. With an Ascot of pretty do
sign nothing looks neater than a littlo knot of
twisted gold. In four-ln-hauds solid shades will
bo worn to somo extent. Plaids aud stripes
havo gono out of neckwear for tho tlmo bolug,
and small, angular ilgures have taken their
place. Angles, however, aro ontlroly Inappro
Pato to tho general character of tho Ascot.
With Its large, Huffy expanso nothing Is moro in
harmony thau a pretty littlo flowered or vlno
liko figure. At any rate, ouo can feel safo in
-wearing such this season. Ascotscau bo bought
at any prico from one dollar to five. Any color
short of something startling will do, although
light is preferred. Striking colors aud striking
things generally havo been rologated to thoso to
whom thoy belong tho sport and tho Sunday-
In these days of cheap jewelry to bo fashion
able iu that respect demands moro of a drain
upon a porson's tasto than perhaps it does to bo
fashionable In auy other regard. Oxidized sil
ver plus, cuff buttons, and rings will bo consid
ered tasty if tho design is well chosen. Link
buttons can bo bought at all prices aud of all
grades, the lower priced In lmitatlou of tho
higher. As tho ono supremo requlslto is its
beauty, tasto must bo used in making the choice.
If thowould-bo well-dressed man can't trust
himself to choose a prettier oxidized pin or pair
of sleove buttons thau his servant could choose
ho had better by them of gold with jewels. Tho
largo seals and pins wo noticed some years ago
aud cau still notlco conspicuously set in tho
middle of a mado-up scarf on tho necks of somo
classes of peoplo have gone out entirely. In an
Ascot tho pin is necessarily placed in the middle,
