and one that is neither pretty nor
refined. The English girl lacks the Amer-i-
cans ability TO make up. and the Ameri-
can, thinking she is very clover, copies
stupidity. Some of the so-callei beauties
are made to have such burning red con-
plexiols that they look as if an apoplectic
stroke were imminent, and remind one of
the women in the far heather lands who
refused TO accept any article Of civilized
wearing apparel except the corset. Ten

warriors TO pull it sufficiently tight to suit

the size their waists proclaimed answered

CoRsETs AND TIGHT LACING.
Missionaries attempt to say that the tight
lacing women are dying out, but am not
believer in women dying from over
laclng. They may grow ugly, their noses
will get red and taeir ewes lose tdeir luster,
but they don'6 die. Providence keeps then
on earth as horrible examples. Ny owa
especial fad is that well-iitting corset is q
JOY forever, and when it comes TO wearing
those dreadful corded waists, and wriggling
around in them, fell tempted TO ask why
should woman wriggle. There is
certainly nothing pretty in it. and, if
she were a child, she would undoubtedly
receive what in my younger days was
known as a warming up.n A woman
wants to hold her body easily aud unaffect-
eddy. and to be properly supported. The
disappearance of the corset usually means
the rapid following of everything Use that
is feminine, including kno ledge of what
is right and of what is wrong. Ohi You
say but she is prejudiced. My dear soul,
never met crank in my life, crank on
the subject of dress or free love, of doing
away with babies or letting the men stay
at home and rock Q cradle, who had not
begun her downward career by casting
casting aside the stays.
NEEDS OF THE MODERN WOMAN.
Really, the modern woman needs a great
many things. just now she needs new
bonnet, aad she IS searching all New York
for it.
She needs a new coat, and she thinks it a
personal insult that the seals should reduce
the size Of their families aud so make their
skins more expensive.
She needs bunch of roses, box of can
dies, and the very sweetest words that a
man can say to her at all times and sea-
sons
She needs information as to why the tariff
bill has made champagne. perfumes, orris
powder and Bass ale more expensive.
She needs to learn to write q legible baud,
or else employ typewriter.
She needs to learn to smile and smile,
and still be villain when she wishes to So
duce the golden ducats from the masculine
contingent.
She needs to be little more careful how
she speaks, and to remember that though
the tongue may be divine instrument, the
devil often plays upon it.
She needs to be better hammered, sweeter
voiced, and more amiable.
Availability is the divine something most
appreciated by mankind. And il is the one
thing that a woman with an opinion of her
own, brains of her own, and a slight temper
Of her own finds it most difficult to
achieve. The state of arniability is un-
doubtedly one of grace. Dear sisters, let
us hope that soma day we will all get in it.
If you are ever so far off from it, so, is
