| 1.-THE noble army OF women who
work need TO pay special attention 10
their physical well-being, If they would
! do their work well and continuously.
Correct dress Is q very important fac
| tor as relates 10 the health of women
in general and business women IN par
ticular. The society woman Is at lib
erty to spend her mornings IN q loose
! wrapper and then 4 she is 60 foolish rs
| To hamper herself for late afternoon
| and evening with tight corsets and
heavy skirts pendant from her hips,
| she does not necessarily suffer the
| harm that the business woman does
who arrays herself in an uncomfortable
and unhealthy dress and not only
wears it all day but works hard. Most
| business women are sensible that their
mode of dress puts them at dlsad-
! vantage in thea competition with men
] for their daily bread. but the way out
, OF the d fficnity has been an unsolved
| problem. Within the last few years
the ieaven of reform has been slowly
working until now IT is easy TO devise
costumes perfectly healthful ard COM
| Portable and which at the same time
are Just as pretty and really more ar.
tstic than the old styles. If drcssmak-
ers could onlybe found who were edu-
Gated in the designs and merits of these
new-stylc gowns, the movement would
| grow much more rapidly, but every
| woman who has tgied To reform her
garments will testify that the trials with
| her dressmakef werA the worst she had
| to encounter. The dressnaker is 90
accustomed to fitting beautiful cor.
set" that she has.
No Idea Of tho Proper Proportions
of a really beautiful figure. More than
that, she docs not know how to drape a
| poor figure 30 as to hide its defects.
The plain, close fitting basque is in no
sense pretty garment ana to only the
| few with symmetrical forms, is 1t At all
| to be endured. Yet stout women and
thin, deformed aud straight, are all de.
creed to appear III it, no matter with
what effect. Loose, flowing outlines
folds, piaits shirs and surplices, are
much more graceful and artistic than
hard, plain lines which are oftentimes
sharp and ugly. A fieshy woman is al
her best in flowing outlines. some OF
their notifications are most becoming
to the thin woman, while finely pro
portloned woman is fairly bewitchinG
when SO auired. No corset is necessary
1t is stiff and clumsy when It is loose,
but it is nearly always tight-at least sc
