On the Coast of Maine, July I. —The
modern watering place has become stereo
typed. It is nothing if not conventional.
The rich dress there, as they do everywhere,
in steeled and paniered silks, or silk covered
with muslin or lace; while those who are
not rich strive, for the few days which is
all they can afford to give to these gay re
sorts, to look exactly as if they were like the
rest in their devotion to fashion and the
possession of resources for its indulgence.
The isolated yet popular seaside resort
from which I am writing is different from
the ordinary watering place—the Newport®
and Saratogas and Long Branches. It has
grown out of fishing villages and small
towns scattered along the coast, and it takes
in an infinite variety of breezy outdoor and
indoor summer life. Picturesque little cot
tages are perched upon the hills and in the
hollows —cottages which have burst into
butterfly form and color out of the chrys
alis of fishermen's huts, or modest little
one-storied farm houses. All the wide beach
for miles and miles is alive with these
modern evidences of the citizens’ desire for
fresh air and blue sky, and between the
stretches are old towns, charming, sleepy,
grass-grown, where the old church and the
cemetery are the principal objects of in
terest, from which the young life has de
parted, but to which it returns when it has
satisfied its craving for contact with the
great world.
One of the great beauties of this coast is
the mingling of the green with the blue.
The hills starred with daisies, bright with
purple fleur-de-lis, are covered with long,
meadow sweet grass and clover, in which
you can lie and watch the blue waves, the
great ocean steamers coming and going, the
pilot boats with their numbers painted large
on their white sails for the convenience of
Incoming and outgoing vessels, and the
lights as they reveal themselves one by one,
from the red “bug” light to minots, the last
seen by the voyager on this side of the At
lantic.
THE BEST OF A SEA VOYAGE
is obtained here on land. The sea air, the
sea breeze, the marine life, the freedom
from care, the beautiful golden and flame
sunsets, reflected and brought to your, feet
by the waves, and the eternal activity in the
midst of space and eternal isolation. All the
health-giving experiences of the ocean voy
ager are here for those who want them with
no drawback of bad smells, water-quaky
motion, closed port holes and crowded sleep
ing space. Life here is elemental. To
breathe, eat, sleep, are all the occupations
one desires; ana after sedulously attending
to these for a given length of time one feels
like running and jumping as healthy, happy
children instead of languidly dragging out
existence in the summer style of overworked
business or overdressed fashion.
BEACH STYLES.
The temperature naturally has much to
do with the clothing worn by the summer
dwellers at the sea side. “Wraps” are in
treat and universal demand, for you never
now when a breeze may spring up from the
Northeast. Middle aged women, mothers of
families evidently consider it a good place
to wear out their old clothes and the oppor
tunity too good to be lost, to finish the “old
black cashmere.” They undoubtedly have
one nice dress to woar ; if you are fortunate
enough to see them in it; but this is unlikely,
as it is reserved for “occasions;” while the
worn cashmere and jacket, which is to be
cut up for rags when it gets back to town,
is conscientiously utilized before permanent
resignation takes place.
Color, in the way of costume, is furnished
by the young girls, by the young married
women, who have remains of trousseaus;
and temporary city visitors, who come down
for a day or a week, and feel that they
nnißt signalize the event by a dress with a
festive or nautical touch. These costumes
are usually of twilled flannel; cream, gray,
navy blue or brown, and they are generally
brightened with red, and often accompanied
with red hat or hat trimmed witn red.
Wood brown and currant color, or copper
brown and terra-cotta are new combinations,
and look well. One of the prettiest dresses
was strapped across the front, the straps
tongue-shaped and buttoned first upon one
side and then upon the other. The skirt was
all brown, the nat all red.
Another pretty dress was of navy blue,
with levers embroidered in the corners with
a yacht club pennant in miniature. The
linen collar and cuffs wero of bluo and
white striped linen, [and 'the sailor hat had
a band to match. A striking little figure ap
peared lately in the midst of a pnrty of
older people, attired in a particularly pretty
and girlisn dress of light blue clinic, spotted
with tiny white and red dots. The skirt was
tucked and hung straight, the liodico was
laid in folds, outlining a full, soft vest of
red crape. A band of red ribbon, with
white picot edge, trimmed the white straw
sailor hat. The dressing of girls of 15 is a
somewhat difficult matter, and this was a
perfect dress for a girl of that age.
But it must be said, that a strictly fash
ionable or conventional “get up” is not now
the correct tiling, among the girls who be
long to the best set. Perhaps they have
caught, the uir from the young men, who.
when they come down hero, wear cheeked
flannel shirts, checked cloth caps, checked
trousors and a jacket. At any rate, the
girls whoai o the most pronounced liellos in
society • ffoet the roughest ways on
the coast. A nattered bat, a leather-belted
jersey or Norfolk jacket, a Scotch plaid
skirt, with shirt, apron front and leather
gloves the worst) for fear or perhaps cut off
at the fingers. You do not see cotton dresses
of this neglige style, because the cotton
gowns worn bv society girls, are of the most
delicate and dainty materials; embroidered
linen lawns, batiste sutino, matin up with
silk mid the liko. They are ft ir lawn parties,
luncheons, afternoon visiting and little teas.
A PRETTY LUNCHEON PARTY
given a few days act) may be worth noting.
A magnificent, Dapunc occupied the centre
of a hay window', which was veiled with
trained vinos upon a moveable lattice work.
The flowers upon this occasion worn not
wild; they won' cut from the garden, anil
consisted principally of fragrant roses and
pink and white carnations. The veranda
wns covered with woodbine anti wisteria,
and in front of it, upon the lawn, wero
huge pots containing India-rubber plants,
dwarf palms, cacti and other tropical plants.
The luncheon • was served by two noat
maids in caps and aprons, ana was very
dainty, concluding* with a frozen straw
berry"cream, strawberries anti cream and
delightful home-made cake, a combined
fruit add jelly cake. The dresses were, some
of them, charming. The hostess wore an aes
thetic gown of cream, tussore silk trimmed
with yellow and brown ribbons and an
open, cream lace. A pretty lilac satine had
yellow flowerets sprinkled over it, and was
arranged over a skirt of lilac silk. The cor
sage bouquet was a hunch of pale yellow
roses.
A rather too drer-sv costume wns of Valen
ciennes lace over shell pink silk, the lash
ends caught down at the left side with
rosettes, to form’ a graduated panel, and
ribbon braces with bows crossing the shoul
-4i Th<J laco sleeves wero full, and gath
ered into a deep silk cuff, which was covered
with lace.
Avery pretty dress was of white lawn,
made up with folds forming a panel and
vest of pale bluo. The white sleeves of this
dress were full and straight,- the cuffs
formed of folds to match vest, collar and
panel. A soft, cream-colored silk had a full
bodice shirred with cords, like the old Eng
lish “drawn” bonnets, which, by the way,
are revived this season. The trimming con
sisted of soft folds of yellow tulle about the
throat and wrists, and yellow India silk
sash tied behind.
A COUNTRY WEDDING.
The couple were a seamstress generally
employed in the town and a painter who
had probably known of her existence since
babyhood, but had not been particularly
acquainted with her uijt.il they met where
she was doing the spring sewing and he the
spring house renovating. The courting was
probably brief and to the point, and the
wedding arranged for June, before the arri
val of me crowd of cottagers should make
the usual demands upon the time of all
willing workers. The girl had no vory near
relations, and the lady for whom she had
been sewing, and who was au old friend and*
patron, kindly allowed her to be married
from her house. The party assembled in
the sitting room, which was bright with
the daisies and buttercups, the pink and
white clover and arnica flowers, that star
every field and meadow.
The bride looked very pretty in a suit of
blue wool, with vest, collar, cuffs and panel
of striped brocade and straw hat trimmed
with flowers and some of the brocade. Her
gloves and handkerchief carefully matched
her costume; apt! it was a source of pride that
they did, for the latter was evidently in
tended for display and not for use. The
groom wore his best coat, a blue tie, in ac
cordance with a rural tradition that the
man’s necktie ought to correspond with the
woman's dress; and had tried to struggle
into gloves, out of deference to his hostess
and because doubtless the brjde had insisted
upon it as the regulation thing; but it
was a failure. One dangled in his
hand, the other hung loose and limp, only
half encasing the fingers, and both were
desperately shoved into his pockets lief ore
the ceremony began. There were no brides
maids and no “best man.” The pretty
daughter of the hostess, in a dress of white
nun’s veiling, with embroidered revers out
lining a loose vest front and narrow, parti
colored ribbons matching the embroidery,
dispensed cake and a servant banned round
ice cream and lemonade. The lady of the
house wore' her ordinary dress of black
cashmere; evidently she had not considered
it an occasion for “dressing up,” although
she had pretty dresses, as I nad occasion to
observe later.
The dresses worn by the few women pres
ent, friends of the bride or groom, might
have been taken off the figure stands of any
furnishing store in any city. The only dif
ference was that those of the young women
looked new; those of the niarriea women,
old and worn, and not of so recent cut or
style. But they were all exact copies of the
prevailing style of the period to which they
belonged, and carried it as plainly as if it
had been labeled.
IMITATIVE DRESSING.
The most distinctive fact in the dressing
of women everywhere is the exactness with
which it repijxiuees certain features which
have caught the popular taste. For exam
ple, the vest, the panel, the high, straight
collar and cuffs of some contrasting or
decorative material. These traits, with
slight variations, appear everywhere, in
every costume worn upon the street or in
tended for the public eye. The majority of
dressmakers are not required to have ideas,
only fashion plates to copy from; and per
haps it is just as well, for one must be very
well versed in the ordinary mode before one
can afford to depart from it.
But it is a little discouraging to find that
with all the talk about art and all the skill
women put into fancy work, how little
they know and how little they apply what
they know to their own covering and
adornment. Women, whose homes are
bowers of beauty, who have little real work
to do, who occupy a large part of their
time in making chair scarfs and bureau
covers., satin satchets and pin-cushions,
wear month in and month out the same old
black dress; treating husband and children
constantly to a garb which is poverty and
despair combined, and carries with it a
most depressing influence. The thrift em
bodied in it is praiseworthy; it combines
usefulness with economy. It is durable
and saves dressmakers’ bills.
But there are so many pretty materials
nowadays, which, if a woman can make up
in simple and pretty style with her own
hands, she can put to varied and becoming
uses that are not worth the cost put into
them by a dressmaker. There are so many
adaptations of pretty ideas; so much that is
refined and original in the way of treatment
and trimming that deft fingers can apply to
simple forms and fabrics—were the arts of
decorative needlework put by individuals
into their own clothing.
Amateur dressmaking has attained a high
degree of perfection in England, and both
this and professional dressmaking lias been
stimulated by the recent annual exhibitions
of practical and artistic dressmaking, which
have received flattering attention from both
press and public. Some college-bred and
well-born women have l >ooll added to the
ranks of professional dressmakers, and are
briuging science and art to hear upon dress
designing and dressmaking. The serious
purpose in this, and the educated taste that
is brought to bear upon it, has already ex
erted a noticeable effect upon the dress of
Englishwomen, and will in time, make them
the best dressed, instead of the worst dressed
women in the world. Already they are the
only civilized women who dare to be orig
inal.
BATHING COSTUMES.
There are no rows of bathing houses along
this part of the Atlantic coast; and at first
sight it would seem as if the inhabitants did
not avail themselves of their opportunities.
But nearer acquaintance shows the bath
houses attached to each cottage; tho dis
tance betwoou them and the beach being
only a “little run.” The fact, however,
accounts for the completeness of the bathing
costumes and their length of sleevoand trou
ser. The fashionable cut follows the Euro
pean models of late, and gives a short sleeve
and leg reaching only a little below tho
knee. But this style, which serves very
well abroad,where the bathing machines are
wheeled into the water and the sun is usual
ly veiled, is very much out of place where
a walk of some distance has to be taken
often in a broiling sun and with a public
highway at the back, from which the beach
and batners are distinctly visiblo.
Few now make their own bathing dresses.
They can buy them cheaper, about $3 50
each, including cap, but not shoos. These,
however, in the usual white duck, only add
50c. or 7oc. to tho cost, and are a necessity
hero. The style of the dresses is uniform,
the only variation being the length of tho
sleeve and leg before referred to. They con
sist of two pieces, blouse overdress, with belt
und trousers and can of oiled silk or cotton,
but a gypsy straw hat, tied down, may be
substitute! for this.
The colors are lighter than formerly.
Cream flannel is more used, and light gray
with red or blue braid for mounting. The
legs of the trousers are frequently striped at
the sides with three rows of half inch braid,
but they havo 110 border at tho bottom. Tho
threo rows of colored braids are repeated
each side of the front and upon the cellar
and cuffs. Anew idea is to make the sleeves
like mens’ shirt sleeves, hut those are not
yet in tho shops. Jenny Junk.

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY. JULY 2. 1887.
THE TRADE IN HATS.
A Dealer Says That Boston Heads Are
Getting Smaller.
From the Boston Herald.
There is 110 longer an opportunity for the
“lords of creation" to inveigh against the
expense of feminine headgear as compared
with their own when a summer hat for a
man costs SIOO. Of course, a hat can bo
bought for 50c., hut the best quality genu
ine Panama hats soli as high as #l5O each.
These are made of the small ends of tho
Panama vegetable fibre, and it is said that
the construction of a single hat is the work
of weeks and even months.
The latest novelty for summer wear is a
hat made of the fibre of a gourd grown in
the Southern States. It is very light and
airy, and is manufactured in tliis city.
“There are a great number of large heads
in Boston,” remarked a hat salesman Satur
day, “but observations from year to year
show that as a rule heads are getting smaller
here.”
“What is the average size ?”
“In Boston, it is 7% at present, while in
Chicago it is only 6%. Heads are rounder
in Chicago than at the Hub. Smaller sizes
are also worn in New York. Why, I have
known a dealer in New York to put a num
ber ,Hi, hat in the window with a sign that
it would be given to any person with a head
large enough to fit it. We wouldn’t dare to
make such an offer in Boston, for we would
have to give away too many hats. We havo
an order now to make an 8 % hat for a cus
tomer.”
“How large a one did you ever construct?”
“We had an order for n9!{ hat last year,
which represents a head 30 inches in circum
ference. The ordinary No. 7 size is 22 %
inches around the head. There are eight
sizes in straw hats for men, ranging from
6% to 7%, and in dress hats there are seven
additional sizes.”
“There is an impression that this is an ‘off
year’ for straw hats. What do your sales
show?”
“The trade has been very fair, and is
rapidly on the increase. The large variety
of derby hats put upon the market this year
somewhat interfered with the early busi
ness, hut not materially. There is a good
trade now with people from the South and
West, who are passing through tho city to
Northern summer resorts. Asa rule, men
put off buying straw hats as late as possible,
for they do not like to wear them, but a
few more warm days will hurry them up.”
“What style seems to be the rage this year,
if any?”
“A goixl many of the English Dunstable
flat brim hats are sold. At first glance one
might think the brim would soon get out of
shape, hut it is made double to keep it stiff.
There is always a demand for Mackinaw
straws, and perhaps a larger number of
these is sold than any other kind.”
“When a prospective customer comes in,
do you try to influence him in his choice?”
“Yes; when a man enters the store wo
‘size him up’ at a glance, and generally
know better thau he does what will be In
coming and suitable to him. If he if a goixl
judge himself, of course we do not oppose
his selection. Regular customers generally
place themselves in our hands with the re
mark, ‘what do I Want?’ and we usually
suit them.”
“Do you notice a difference in the heads
of persons of various nationalities?”
“Yes, for instance, French heads are
small and round, while those of Englishmen
are larger.”
“You do not buy much of your straw
goods in Now England, do you?”
“Avery small portion, indeed. The
straw trade is nearly all supplied now by
Western makers, or by New York and Bal
timore manufacturers.”

Physicians recognise Iron as the beet restorative

that there are more preparations of iron than of any
