wonder how many of the daughters Of

DREssMAKERs OF THE FUTURE.

Dressmaking is a noble art, says Mrs.
Anne ,Jenness Miller in the Ladies'
Home Journal. In the purity of its
ideas it is a type of the highest culture.
Ladies should 20 into it, for it requires
the aesthetic instinct and the educated
taste, and these belong only to the
higher and more refined temperament.
The most beautiful dress we have ever
had has been the Greek dress, and, in
some periods, the Roman; that is, &C
cording to real art. But such dress is
not available for our climate, with its
abrupt transitions from heat to cold,
nor for our business vOcatlOns and
conventional usages. The artists or
dressmaker of the future must study
the laws governing dress as it was in
those DAYS, and at the same time take
into consideration adaptations to eli
matte and social conditions.
Woman, particularly when she Is
beautiful, is the most attractive being
in the world, and more pains should
be taken to drape and dress hair, than
with almost any other branch OF art.
[ do not think that dressmaklng has
ever revealed the aesthetic beauty that
is possible. We have style and fashion,
but we have never had what l regard
as the highest forms of art in dress,
and we never can have until such a
time as it is regarded as a fine art,
instead of now as a trade, and until
the time shall come when women or
men, who are dressmakers, shall be
treated, with the same consideration,
socially or otherwise, as we to-day treat
a painter or a sculptor.
