ARE THINKING OF WEEK- ENDS

Forget your skirt and wear a culotte for sports.

Look out for peasant 'kerchiefs and pareos for the beach.

For those who wish to slim, orange juice taken without sugar is excel- lent and very healthy. It is a good idea to hand found orange juice to your visitors before dinner on a hot summer evening.
