see why this attack upon this pecul-
lar garment. 1t is claimed they ex
hibit an indecent exposure of the per,
son Pshaw. On the contrary such
is the shape of a "Mother HUBBARD
that when a girl is attired in one of
them it is impossible for eve an
expert to tell whether she weighs
100 pounds or 200 unless she sits
on his lap-and of course with most
of US that would be out of the ques-
ton.
Aprepos Of the Mother Habb ard
We are told that the Father Hubbard
has made its appearance. An ex
change says: Simply drop the suspen-
ders and wear the shirt loose over
the tops of your panta, instead of

vance Of the Sabbath, you will find.
if you inquire about them, have their
lines generally cast in very pleasant
places. They don't realize that the
lot of the working man is not for the
most part a happy one. am IN
favor of any movement that helps
anybody to appreciate Sunday as a
day of rest, of healthful and pure
pleasure, and that will gently lead
men, women and children from the
things of low estate up to the higher
things. If a band concert on Sun.
dav in a park will do this, l have nc
objection On tire contrary, if it is
hepful to those &sho attend the con.
cert in turning their attention from
the sordid, hard, realistic side of hu.
man life, and gives them only a
glimpse of happiness, ! say let the
bands play in all the parks and
wherever they are found to produce
these blessed results"
