1t is not always easy to devise a
morning dress for winter. That is a
morning dress for a woman who has to
take the things OFF the breakfast table,
carry them into the kitchen, and then
dust and arrange several rooms in ad-
ditiOn to making beds
On account Of the season any thing
but stuff dress is, of course, out Of
the question, aud any stuff dress, even
If protected by a large apron and extra
sleeves, soon becomes dusty and shabby
when worn for homework. Sometimes
an errand must be done Immediately
after breakfast. When this is the case,
unless an ulster or newmarket can be
dOnned. il is necessary (if arrayed for
work. to change ones dress for the
street, and. on returning to change it
again for the homework which one
has, of course. been Obliged to
leave. All this Inconvenience may be
avoided by having an Overdress. Put

worn with belt Of the same sewed at

into band, and buttoned around tho
wrist. while a broad band around the
neck protects tie collar of the dress.
When il is necessary to answer q
ring at the bell, TO see a visitor, or to
60 out upon an urgent or unexpected
errand, this garment can be slipped of
in a moment. and the wearer will find
herself completely dressed. -Christiau
