Women Nowadays More Modest than
Formerly.

Leaving out class of fashionable
and utterly useless women, the crea-
lures ofwealth and luxury which our
fathers knew nothing of, the great
majority are as good, industrious, and
sensible as those of any previous
time. In the matter of dress, on
which so much has been said, tho
writer remarks: l remember hear
ing that my mother OF sainted mem.
Dry and her mother betO. her were
often seen and admired in the public
dances of their day, and | have no
doubt wore the costume of the per-
iod in all purity.
In fact one cannot look for mo-
ment upon the pictures of ancient
DANES which have come down to us,
without being struck with such ex-
hibitions of neck and bust as are
really very uncommon pow. / have
in mind Martha Washington and la,
dies of similar character, whose par
ty costume has always seemed to me
seriously Objectionable, bnt of whose
personal purity and wholesome in
fuence upon society, | have never
had doubt, nor have | ever heard
one suggested, They, when sitting
in their chimney>corners, were as
amply clothed as any danes in the
land no doubt; but.in society they
conformed to its customs with q
grace and purity that left no room
for scandal.
Why then should we judge more
severally the women Of the pres
ent day, who having been accus>
toned from their infancy to the
wearing of Glow necks and short
sleeves" are utterly unconscious in
their own experience, of and ground
for such accusations as are common
in the purient criticisms Of the day
