HOOPS.



SIR: find in yoar paper OF August .he following
questions put to your !ady readers snd being OF

alone and leave others to DO the same il they choose
have worn them for more than year, and in some
respects have found them decidedly advantageous.
Ny general health being poor, and afflicted as WAS
with pain In the side, found that wearing what is
termed "tkrts enough to look decent was to be-
coming extremely burdensome. Therefore, when
hoops became fashionable, adoptcdthem. But most
certainly not for fashions cake, but simply for the
lightness. have never allowed them an extreme
spread indeed, have kept them much within res-
sopable limits That have often been asked the ques
ton, "Why don't Won wear hoopsF Over the
hooIcd skiri usually wear tro thin ones, beside my
dress skirt For standing, walking or running, or for

an ugly one TO appear more so. Question fourth

There are various nasons, no doubt, Tor wearing

in fashion, will ladies not be Just as enthusiastic upon
the comfort and convenience Of wearing them a. they

The suggestion of our friend Of rnE TRIBUNE, to

the subjoired remarks.
In NY own humble opinion, thorough reform is
