Excerpt from Philippa: Or Under a Cloud

The Frays soon wearied of watch ing the scene, and Philippa sug gested they should walk through the town, and visit a famous modiste, who had already found them out and sent them a card. They passed the animated hotels, with their small iron chairs and tables out on the lawn, and their keen, white-aproned waiters stand ing by expectant. The Casino was quite deserted at this hour, and the people they encountered were all tripping toward the beach, where the crowd still lingered. The principal streets are lined with jewelers' and confectioners' shops, restaurants and modistes up from Paris. The sun is bright on the smooth shining asphalt.
