IRvTNG'S ROMEO AND yULIET-THR THEATRICAL
SPECTACLE THAT EClIPsEs ALI. PREVIOUS
SHAKESPEAREAN REVEALS

Correspondence of the Phiiadelphia Times
LONDON, March 25.-Agitation concerning the
unhygienic character of womans dress is like
the temperance movement--ever In season.
There will always be drunkards, and women
who lace themselves, to admonish by precept, to
warn by example. The two lectures of the
young surgeon, Fred. Treves, on the subject of
Feminine Dress" delivered recently at Kens-
ington Town Hall, have started the ball rolling
once again in this vital direction. How learned
men are in the mysteries Of women's furbelows!
At one time 1t used to be considered good tone
In men to confess an utter ignorance of the
manifold complications Of woman's attire but
nowadays our gentlemen seem to pride them
selves on their knowledge of beauty in lace, in
India shawls, even Of the various dress fabrics
worn by the women they love. The girls
are all laughing at young Trsvcs, who himself
Is young and rather uncommOnly handsome, for
his onslaught on the tight iacing habits Of the
sex, and the girl in particular who tainted at his
first lecture, and concerning whom the lecturer
cried out as she was borne from the room:
Don't pity her; cut her stay laces!" has vowed
she Will have revenge some day in laceratlng
his heart with her large brown eyes il ever she
gets him within love range A direct outcome
of TreVes' lectures is the exhibition Of hygienic
wearing apparel for women which is now taking
place at the Cavendish Rooms Women only
are admitted and the afternoon looked in tn,
place was litera ly thrOnged with ladies. young
and Old, OF all classes, alike anxious to discover
some mode Of habliment which shall do away
with the present cumbrOus. inconvenient and
expensive one. The feature of the exhibition
is Lady HarbertOn's divided skirt, a clever ar
rangement of the old Boomer dress Not only
is this garment exhibited on several dummies.
but the ladies who expatiate on its merits are
wearing it, so that observers may see for them
selves the modest effect Of it, while the conven-
fence of having the lower limbs separately
swathed and not hObbled together in one tight
fitting case is matter which scarcely needs
laudatiOn.

BLACKBERRIES AND RAsPBERRIES.-
Every one who has gathered wild black
berries is aware that the stems grow to the
height of six or eight feet, and gracefully
bend over at the top. The lower part of
the cane bears little or no fruit, it being
nearly all at the top of the bush. The same
happens on a smaller scale with the rasp-
berry when left to itself. While we cult
vate the blackberry for the sake of better
fruit than the wild plants usually afford,
we should also endeavor to have more of
it, and more conveniently placed on the
bushes. From questions that are asked,
it is evident that all are not aware that
the stems of the blackberry and raspberry
lat least those cultivated for fruit) are on
ly biennial. The plant throws up from the
old stems. vigorous shoots. which grow
rapidly, and by autumn will become ripe
and hard canes. like the old ones. The
old canes, which have given tho crop of
fruit. have completed their work, and,
though they may remain alive for awhile,
will all be dead by next spring. When the
fruit has been gathered, it is best to cut
the canes entirely away, to give room to
the new ones. These should have more
attention than they usually receive; if left
to themselves, they will become just like
wild plants, struggling, and with their
fruit all at the top. Not only on account
of the greater quantity of fruit, but for
the ease in picking it. should the canes be
pruned. Blackberry canes should never
grow over five feet, and many prefer to
keep them at three feet high. Whenever
tho green shoot has reached the desired
height, remove the top, or growing point,
which, being tender, may be pinehed off
with the thumb and finger. Soon after
this is done, branches will start along the
stem, and these should also be pinched,
the lower ones when eighteen inches long,
and the upper when twelve inches. By a
little attention, once week, or oftener.
giving the needed piuching, the blackber-
ry, instead of being long struggling
shrub, catching at the clothing of all who
approach it. may be brought into tho form
of neat pyramidal bush, which, the next
season, will be loaded with fruit from bot.
tom to top. The same treatment may be
followed with raspberries, which are usu-
ally kept shorter. One of the grea test
pleasures in gardening is found in training
and shaping plants. and making them
grow as we wish, and the effects of this are
strikingly shown in the blackberry and

EVERLASTING FENCE PosTs. -There is
peculiar satisfaction in listening to the
conversation or reading the writings of
positive men, or of those who deal in facts,
and with such facts as have bat one side
and no exception. Such man tells us, in
the Western Rural, how to preserve posts
tor fences, etc. He says: 81 discovered
many years ago that wood can be made to
last 10 niger than iron in the ground, but
thought the process so simple and mex
pensive that it was not worth while to
make any stir about it. I would as soon
have poplar or ash as any other kind OF
timber for posts. I have taken out bass
wood posts after having been set seven
years, that were as sound when taken up
as when put in the ground. Time and
weather seem to have no effect on Them
The posts can be prepared for less than
two cents. Take polished linseed oil, and
stir in pulverized charcoal to the consist
ency of paint. Put coat of this over the
timber, and there is not man that will
live long enough to see it rotten.
