The Luxury Of Easy Dresses.

The Luxury or Easy Dresses.
Very few ladies know how to ap
Preciate an easy and healthful dress.
They think their dresses are Ioosp,
when a mau or a boy put into one as
tight would gasp for want of breath,
and feel incapable Of putting forth an
effort except to break the bands.
Ladies are so accustomed TO the tight
fits of dress makers that they ssfsH to
pieces" when relieved of them, They
associate the loose dress with the bed
or lounge. To be up, they must be
stayed up, and to recommend a com
Portable dress to them is not to meet a
conscious want Oi theirs.
1t is great pity, none the less. If
they could once know what luxury
it is to breathe deep and full at every
respiration, to feel the refreshment the
system takes in by having the blood
enliyened and sent bounding through
the arteries anil veins, 10 have the aid
to digestion such dress gives, to have
their own strong, elastic muscles, keep
everything in place and themselves
erect : if they could for a while know
the luxury, and then be sent back into
the old, stiff, straight jackets, they
would fume and fret and rave in very
desperation if they could not get rid Of
them.
As tits, they prefer to Ianguish and
suffer dreadfully, and die young, and
leave all their friends and their hus-
bands, and their children, and I do not
see any other way than to let them be
sick and die until they are satisfied.
If fOnly the sinner were the suffrrer, it
would not be worth while to make a
great ado about it, but the blight to
future innocent lives which must fol
fOw, renders the false habits Of our wo-
men in the highest degree criminal
Laws OfLifH.
