on the support it gives the wearer,
all the certificates of perfectly healthy
and long-lived' women who have been
brought up from il,e cyadle in stays, will
never convin.'e any sensible human
being. Anything which congresses the

US to leap, run, fence. swim or practice
g,mna.l.,e wi;ii..ou, extra fatigue,
mp.t be injurious. TO be absolutely
comfortably a.lired for walking, climb
ing stairs and riding, the waist ought
not to have even the restriction of a
whalebone, there ought TO be no awk-
ward tournpre to lean back against,
aud the skirt should reach only 10 the
tops pf the bopis.' Aud she naiyely
