bunny Women.

Women, especially those of the upY
classes, who are not obliged to j.
themselves in condition by work, iosg
after middle age, sometimes earlier, q
considerable amount of their beight,
not by STOPPING, as men do, but by act
ual collapse, sinking down mainly to
be attributed to the perishing of the
muscles thatsupport the frame in con.
sequence of habitual and constant pres
sure Of stays and dependence upon the
artificial support by them afforded.
Every girl who wears stays that press
upon these muscles and restrict the
free development OF the tibres that form
them, relieving them from their natural
duties Of supporting the spine, indeed
incapacitating them from so doing, may
feel sure she is preparing herself to be
a dumpy woman. a great pity! Fail.
ure of health among women when the
vigor of youth passes away is but toe
patent and but too commonly caused by
this practice. Let the man who adj.
mires the piece of pipe that does duty
for the human body picture to himself
the wasted form and scanned skin.
Most women, from long custom Of
wearing these stays, are really unaware
how much they are hampered and re-
stricted. A girl of twenty, Intended by
nature to be one of her finest specimens
gravely assures one that her stays are
not tight, being exactly the same size
rs those she was first put into, not
perceiying her condemnati0nin the fact
that she has since grown five inches in
height and two in shoulder breadth.
Her stays are not too tight, because the
constant pressure has prevented the
natural development of the heart and
lung space. The dainty waist of the
poets is precisely that flexible slimness
that is destroyed by stays. The form
resulting from them is not slim, but a
piece of pipe, and as infleXibe. But,
while endeavoring to make clear the
outrage upon practical good sense and
sense of beauty, it is necessary to
understand and admit the whole state
of the case. The reason, if not a neces-
sity, for some sort of corset, may be
found when the form is very redundant;
this, however, can not be with the very

stiff under the bust to support it, and
sufficiently elastic at the sides and back

the false ribs would not be injurious,
but perhaps the contrary, serving as q
constant hint to keep the chest well
forward and the shoulders back; but
every stiff, unyielding machine, crush

muscle, will be fatal to health, to free
dom of movement and to beauty; it il
