SoUEEzING.-While we aEe growing
very sensible, indeed, in matters of
dress, as far as boots Balmoral skirts,
warm stockings, and high necks, we
are degenerating in some other mat
tiers quite important. The corset is
now a necessary part OF a woman's
wardrobe. and, alasI when q woman
does begin to wear corsets, she will
wear them too small, and 6ill tug at
the laces until her breath becomes
short, and she feels it necessary to re-
frain from anything like a comforta-
kle meal. We say nsthing against a
well-shaped corset, worn loose, but
there lies the difficulty. A loose
corset Injuries the appearance of the
figure instead of improving it, and
people wear corsets that they may
have small waists.
All we can say is, don't squeeze,
whatever you do; you may have
small waists, but are exposing your
self to q dozen misfortunes which are
as bad as a large waist. First, you
will surely have the dyspepsia, and
grow yellow, and cross, and unhappy;
secondly, your hands will grow red;
thirdly, your nose; fourthly, you will
be unable to walk d mile at once;
filthy, dinner will be in . misery;
sixthly, your shoulder blades will in.
crease in size and altitude; s~eventhly,
your eyes will grow weak; eighthly,
you will break at thirty or therea-
bouts, and be a sickiy old woman
from that time forth. If these truths
do not brighten women from tight
corsets, perhaps the information that
gentlemen generally do not admire
what dress-makers call a "pretty
6gure." SO much as a natural one. may
have some effect.

the destruction of herring, by this fish

the efforts of man are slight and weak in
