These Are >Sot So Bad -NGer All When

In the biographical Section of the re-
cent meeting OF the British Association,
the yexed question Of stays aud tight lac
ing was discussed in n separate depart
ment- The Attendance Of the fair sex was
especially large. The general expectation
which they apparently entertained that
the paper would condemn the wearing OF
stays was, however, agreeably disap-
pointed.
Mr. c 6. Roy, Professor Of Pathology
n Cambridge, and Mr.. J. G. Adams, Uni
vcr-ity Admiuistrat or of Pathology. who
had announced joint paper "On the
Physiological Bearing Of Waist Belts and
Stays" blessed instead Of banning these
articles.
They had lately been making son1c
pathological experiments, and had found
that good deal Of the blood stored use
le=sly IN tie abdominal veins is. by slight
pressure, placed advantageOusly at TIE
disposal Of the muscles. brain and skin
This explains how men, as well as wo-
men, instInctively employ some method
Of abdominal compression, wearing waist
bands or belt, or the more elaborate
corSc;s, at periods OF iucreas Z activity.
No doubt fashion has sometime led TO
the distortion Of lie female f-Ure by
means Of stays, but IL not lacct too tight

and supporting the bosom ard back, con-
stiyUtcs q Convenient combination Of the
different forms Of girdle which have been
found useful by the women Of al civil
lied nations from the renotest times.
OF course, during sleep they are put OF,
but during hours of exertiou, social or
otherwise, reasonable tight Iac.ug Is fitted
TO Increase mental and physical activity.
They, however, cautioned young ladies'
against carrying this to an iDjudicious
extreme.
BY the way, &c was suggested 20 train
