while each would have 'love of q bonet." Of

manner alike upon the two ultimate back hairs
Of the head husbands would sport at. leas adozen

Young ladies don the one style of gossimer as il

Like soldiers clothes of one pattern while

Women, as well as men, have large faces and
small ones, sharp faces and round ones long
faces and short ones, and the man and his ha tier
recognize this fact, but the woman and her mil
liner ignore it.
Thus through the whole range Of wardrobe
while men follow fashion so faras (ashon contrib
utes to comfort, women follow the tyrant, lead
whittier he will. Aud the stringest feature of
all, is. that women eplorc--as we'll they may

"What would be thought of the tailor, who,
when large coat collars are in the fashion prints
should send man, whose head sits clio e to his
shoulders, into the street with coat collar
reaching TO his crown? Or when flights" are in
vogue, would encase long, spindleshanked Gus

when short waists are in the ascendant, should
