A Daily Programme For Holiday Tourists--Rules For ' Visitors Who Have Only Seven Days to Spend In Metropolis. A week is undoubtedly a very short time in which to see much of the great City of London, but it is marvellous what may be done in this way if a good program is drawn out for tach day, and kept 'to as strictly as possible. The following are a few general rules for 'the visitor who has only a week to spend in London. Live in a central district, not in the suburbs. The Russell Square district is a good and convenient one. Visit picture galleries and nfuseums in the 'early part of the day when both mind and body are fresh and alert, leaving out~ door sights, such as parks, exhibi- tions, etc., to the afternoon. Start the .day early. Take lunch out, and make it a rule to be back at the hotel or boarding-house by 5 p.m.. Rest for an haur, and if pos- sible take dinner not later than six o'clock. If taken at a later hour than this theatres and other places of entertainment cannot be easily reached in proper time. Distances in London are great, and the . theatres, especially if a good piece is on, usually crowded, so that unless seats are booked one must be on the spot in very good time. Ride on the tops of the 'buses as much as possible, never grudging the time so spent, for, with the help of a map, more will be learned in this way of London, th® appearance of its famous public buildings,' its busi- hess places of world rengwn, and its street life, than can possibly be done by any other means. "Wh& in doubt, ask a p'liceman," and above all wear a pair of well- made and excellently fitting boots or shoes, foryaching feet will make even the most marvellous sights of the greatest city in the world appear but a weariness of the flesh. Tastes differ widely--what is one man's 1heat is another man's poison; _ s04 in the following program for each day in the Week, only the most fam- ous paces of interest which every average person desires to see have been. mentioned. The evenings are left free, to allow of visits to places of entertainment, music-halls, thea- tres, etc. It is supposed that the week's holi- day commences on Friday, the visit- or having arrived in London the pre- vious evening. Friday.--Take a 'bus at Charing Cross to St. Paul's, passing aicng the famous and crowded thorough- fares.of. the Strand, Fleet Street, and Ludgate Hil...See thasgrest cathed-, ral thoroughly. If is open|free every weekday from 9 a.m. till 5 p.m., but there are several parts of the build- ing for entrance to which a small charge is made, and which are well worth a little expenditure of time and money; these are the library, clock, and whispering gallery (60.), golden gallery and ball (1s.), and crypt (6d.). These parts of the build- ing are only open between the hours of-1 and 3 p.m. After leaving the cathedral lunch will, no doubt, be welcome. This may easily be obtained, as there are many good restaurants in the vicin- ity of St. Paul's. After lunch, walk along the famous Paternoster Row to the corner of Cheapside, see the Gen- eral Postoflice, then take a 'bus to Marble Arch, Hyde Park, going via Holborn and Oxford Street. This drive of several miles is a most in- teresting one. Oxford Street is the longest line of London shops. Walk from the Marble Arch through the park to Rotten Row, where between the hours of 4 and 7 p.m., if the visitor is in London in the season, he will witness a scene of brilliance and. gaicty not easily forgotten. On returning to the City, take a 'bus at Hyde-Purk Come-Via- Ricewdibly and Shaftesbury Avenue. Saturday.--Be at the door of the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square at 10 a.m, the hour of opening, ad- mission free on Saturdays. It will only be possible, with such limited time at one's disposal, to walk through the principal rooms. Leav- ing the gallery, walk down Whitehall to the Houses of Parliament. These are open to the public on Saturd $ only. from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Free admission tickets, however, must be obtained at the office in the building, to which a friendly pgpliceman will direct the. way. The visiter, after following. ~ the route prescribed through the House of Lords, the How - of . Commons, robing-rooms, ete., emerges at Westminster Hall, the scene of so many great corona- tion banguets, as well as of tramic in- 'cidents in the history of England. Westminster Abbey is naturally Vis- ited next; but as this is Coronation year it is not at present open to visitors." After lunch has been taken somewhere in the vicinity, the af- ternoon may be spent either at the Crystal Palace ror at Earl's Court Kxhibition, to 'which latter exhibi- tion *'Pdris" has been. transported this year. The return fare to Crys- tal--Patace, third-class, including ad- fnission, is 1s 6d, from Victoria or the City. If Earl's Court.is pre ferred, it can be reached either by rail from Westminster Dridge Sta- tion or by bus. It is hetter to dine dut this_evining, as, in either the Crystal Palace or Earl's Court, very good restaurants are to be found; and .the evening may th n be pleasantly spent in the grounds listening te. the music Sunday. --It is well. Td consult" a daily néwspaper on the previous day as to the various Sunday services By this means one learns where ebrated clergvmen_are preaching.

The Church Parade in Jiyvde Park at one o'cléck attracts many _ visitors, and a Vv pleasant Sunday afternoon may be spent un- der the shady trees of the Park. Monday.--Start the day with a vis- it to the Tower of London, on the north bank of the Thames, a little below London Bridge. © Admission to the eights (the armory and the Crown Jewels) free on Mondays and Saturdays. The nearest station is Mark Lane (Underground.) After leaving this ancient stronghold, so rich in historic irfterdst, cross the . Thames "by means. of the great Tow- er Bridge, unique in its construction and walk westwagds towards. Lon- don Bridge. Before re-crossing the river hy this bridge, the visitor, especially if he be a Dickens lover, will see something of the Borough, so 'closely connected with this au- thor's writings. From London Bridge a splendid view of the shipping is obtained. Th2 Monument, close to the bridge, may now be visited, and if onc has courage to ascend, the reward is an intensely _ interesting - view of the busy scens below. Again the Dick- ens lover will be enthralled, and memories of the: Pecksniffs will crowd upon him. The Customs-house and the famous Bilkingsgate Fish Market are within a few minutes' walk of the Monument, and. the following great, buildings are within hali a mile--the Bank of England, the Hoyval Exchange and the Mansion House. Frem ths Bank, a short walk takes one to the Guildhall, to which admission is free. 5 After such a busy morning's sight- seeing an aftérnoon spent in Ken- singtom Gardens, and im looking through Kensington Falace will doubtless prove restful and pleasant, One of tha moegt intepesting 'bus rides in London is from the Bank to Kensington Palace Garden®, passing along Cheapside, Newgate Street, ®t. Paul's Molborn, and Oxford Strect, north side of Hyde Park, and Bayswater. The same 'bus Bakes on® all the way. Kensington Pal- ace is now open free to the public. A station of tke "Twopenny Tube'" is within easy reach of the;Gardens, hy means of which a very quick re- turn to the City can be made. Tuesday,--Begin the day by paying a' visit to Tit-Bits Offices, South- ampton Street, Strand, where from gu gallery the visitor ¥s allowed to see the great machinery in motion. Then go- down by the Hotel Cecil to the Thames Embankment, see Cleopatra's Needle, "and walk along to the Tem- ple Gardens of the Inns of Court, passing Somerset House. Go through these quiet gardens to the busy Strand, cross it to the Courts of Justice on the othen side, , and th n Walkthrough Lincoln's Inn Fields to Holborn. Take a 'Rus here" going West, which in 'a few ! i 'will put one down at the nearest point for the British Mu- seum. Spend the remainder of the morning here. The Museum is open to , the public eveey day free of charge from 11 a.m. till 4 pan. After lunch, which can be obtained within the building, if desired, a very pleasant afternoan may be spent in Regent's Park and the fam- ous "Zoo." Go by rail or 'bus to Baker Street Station, where Maddme Tussaud's "famous: wax-works are situated. A shilling is charged for adinission to this very entertaining collection. From this point cross Regent's Park by Broad Walk tothe Zoo, afterexploring which, if the visitor has any time or. energy left, and if he is interested in sports, a visit to ~ Lord's Cricket Ground might be made, as it can be reached without much. trouble from the Zoo, by walking or driving along the Al- bert Road. Return to the City by rail from the station of the Under- ground 'at St. John's Wood, close to Lord's. Wednesday.--Spend part of morning in South Kensington geum. The best way to reach itis by rail to South Kensington Sta- "Eeaving the Muserm;--visit the Brompton Oratory, and see the Ine perial Institute, the Royal Albert Hall, -.and the Albert Memorial, all within very easy reach of the NMu- seum. After lunch, take a 'bus from the Albert Memorial to Hyde Park Corner. From this point a very in- teresting 'walk is the following: Down Constitution 1Iill, 'passing in front of Buckinghain Palace, "then along the Mall, on the leit St. James' Pal- ace and Marlborough House, and to the right St. James' Park, reaching Piccadilly Circus via Waterloo Place and Regent Street. The rest of the afternoon ma#® be spent in seeing the shop windows in Bond Street and Regent Street, Thursday .--The Tate Gallery, near Vauxha!l ° Bridge. and the ' Wallace Collection in Hertford House, Man- chester Square, are both intensely in- teresting, especially to lovers -of art, A choice may be made between them, or both might be seen in one mora ing, by driving 'in. a hansom, from one to sthe other.

The picture gallery, the exquisitely-laid-out _gardons, 'the maze' and the great vine, are all well worth a visit. On leaving the pal ace, walk through, the jamousg chest- nut avenué in Bushey Park to Ted- dington, where the return can be made by rail to London, that city of enchantment to which the travel- ler--no doubt tired but happy--must now - bid a reluctant farewell.--z 'How Bost to Spend a Week in London," by Mise N.

The President's Daughter Wears Pale Blue Linen, Embroidered in White--Costumes of Pongee , Very Smart. = Newport, R.1., Aug. 23.--Even with the luxury and speed of present-day travelling=it requires more than an ordinary activity to cover two such cities ag Saratoga and Newport in the same week, samply for the purpose of: studying the fashions. Nevertheless the enjoyment of the task'is worth the trouble any time and oné who has un- dertaken it fis willing to accept such an assignment a second time. . Newport has not had such a gay season in years as this one' has been, consequently there\has been an unusu- ally, brilliant array of Leautiful gowns. The events that have been and are to be occasioned a great outlay of money for dresses, hats and wraps by fashionable leaders and these gowns 'have been at once the wonder and admiration of all 'who have seen them. The majority of gowns that 1 have seen are in linen pongee, crepe de chine and dotted sw The most ex- clugive designs in the first named ma- terial are trimmed. with the finest of French embroideries. Pale blue linen embroidered in white is very stylish and Miss Alice Roosevelt has affected it very much this year. One of the most stunning of her costumes has a large - Charles IX collar, em- 'broidered in Persian colors. The skirt has three bands of whité lingn sprinkled with tinted Frénch dots, one at the head of the deep circular flounce, one at the hem and another midway between, The vest has two crosswise bands of the same mateiial over a simple white foundation. Miss Alice is a simple, un- affected young woman with a level head, which has not been at all turn- ed by the homage paid her here. Entire costumes of pongee are un- doubtedly the smartest for midsummer wear, and the colorings are more and more varied all the time. In the na- tural color the pongee is very silky, and while in all it is also attractive, somehow unless in the verv expensive qualities, it seems to have a rough- ness that the natural color lacks. The natural color, however, is not hécominig to everybody so the different shades of blue, green, grey and brown are tremendously ir "demand. Box plaifed and .side plaited shirts with coats to match are charming in pon- ogee dnd there are to be foupd any nuiaber of them at 'Saratgoa. There are also other styles that are trim- med withy either Hercules or soutache braid or with both kinds, which are exceedingly pretty. One model in pale green is especial ly smart and as desirable for the wo- man of moderate means in that it may be duplicated in one of the mer- cerized inexpensive fabrics with excel- lent resul It has a plaitea skirt, a short jacket in box plait, but with deep yoke rather a la Norfolk, and is fastened with enamelled buttons to the jacket itseli. Iw the less costly design handsome pearl buttons might be substituted for the enamelled ones. Upon the jacket there are lapels or waistcoats of dark green, very much aarker in color; which are trimmed with rows of narrow soutache braid. There are full underslecves of white chiffon or lace, or turned back cuffs of the pongee with fancy: buttons. An extremely smart frock which I saw Miss Kathleen Neilson, the fiance of Reginald Claypool Vanderbilt," wearing a day -or two ago, was of very fine voile. It had no elaborate plan of decoration other: than corded gaugings. These were arranged on skirt, bodice and confined "the top of the sleeves and all fell in with one an other to form in themselves a highly successful scheme. A pale mauve silk sash fell over the frock at the bac and a bana of embroidered mauve silk ran around a pretty collar. It was a lace-toned. voile and a capital ir and i= proof of how well a fabric stand alone when ted. Ditted Swiss dresses are worn with glorious results this year. "They are literally swarthed in lace, for in some instances gowns in this fabric are overlaid with the trimming that 'it calls dor a little guesswork td tell just what the foundation is. Mr Cornelius Vanderbilt, jr., who has created a sensation here by buy- ing out a New York thedtie for an entire -nicht in order~that she might have the play produced in the theatre of her villa here, on Monday night, afiects Swiss very much. She has a delightful frock in, corn flower blue, trimmed with exquisite | black lace. The entire affair is made over a foun- dation of pale blue satin. The over- dress is composed of alternate bands of swiss and lace connected "with ah Jntricate fancy stitch. These bands form a deep flounce upon the skirt, which depends from a shirred ivoké of pale blue, delicately tracedswith black. The bodice has a vest of blue satin over which is -a fall of dead White chifion,- and there still is draped' over the chiffon in soft folds strips of black lace-with just enough space be- tween them to afford a glimpse of the intermediate trimming which stimul ates the effect 'of a @ne white cord- ing. The entire scheme is delightful and the effect is one Of the most ori-9 ginal vet seen. The sléeves are tucked above she elbow to fit perfectly snug, but below this point they pouch vol- uminosusly and are gathered into a cuff which carries out the idea effected in. the vest. There is no disputing the fact that dress is daily growing more magnifi cent and full' of :intricaciés. Chiffon and floral effects are most charming, not to speak of the new imperial em- hroideries, which offéy enormous for the ingenuity of the couturiere.

Simultane- ous with the appearance of grapes in the market (although the real fruit be hot-house productions) Dame Fashion brings out 'the most realistic, little white grapes for mid-summer cha- peaux: They are very striking and when combined with rich red velvet, ribbon as they have been seen here, are a most desirable addition to any wardrobe. Another fancy in headgear is the toque made of crepe de chine. There comes a grade specially for this pur- and it as thin as chiffon, al- though more lustrous more substantial.
