property was caused by the formation OF ice gorges'
Thirty cement boats lying near the locks OF inc
Delaware and Hudson Canal were carried down the

The blacksmith shop of that company and smaller
buildings were lifted from their foundations and
carried 200 feet away. The movable property in
John j. Baisden's boatyard was swept away. The
stores and houses at Eddyville were flooded In their
lower rooms Horses in stables stood all night In
three feet of water. Along the road leading to

the road were broken down by the tons OF ice which
crushed against them. The banks Of the Rondout

The damage done will reach thousands Of dollars 1t

dragged, to gather up when descendin z
dirty stairs and to make you wish you had
never been born. But here is everything
snug and warm and quite out of the way.
You have nothing 10 lift but your gown.
Such sense of lightness and comfort and
ease! PetticoatS should only be worn in
the house with transparent dresses, and then
should be of the lighteSt possible material,
china silk, crane or null. Heelless shoes
should be worn with street gowns, and
slippers TO match the frocks indoors"
But with the Punishment of the corsets
would not women lose the trig and neat APP
pearance they now make?'
by no meaUs. There are ways and means
of dressing so that the plumpest of women
need not have an untidy appearance. | am
an advocate of long cl0aks always for the
stTeet-WOOl or fur in winter, silk or lace for
summer. Under these long cloaks women
can wear the easiest of gowns The bust
ness woman can have her plain stuff gown
perfectly comfortable, not binding her any
where. Then after she climbs the stairs to
an office she does not enter flushed, breath
less, embarrassed and Self-c0nScouS. She
can talk 10 man with the same ease with
which he talks TO her. She may not be quite
as fascinating, or catchy but she is more
forceful and effective"
Are many women adopting the trousers
in place Of petticOatS?"
You would be surprised to know how
fast the custom is spreading. Women who
are persuaded to try them say they will
never return to the thralldom of pettcOats.
The husbands, too, like the idea, and one
well-knOwn man sent Inc word that he
WAS delighted to have his wife wear the
breeches."
So it seems the days of lace frills and
dainty embroideries, of ruffles, puff and
things are fast assiDg away. Alsek for the
street-crossng lounger on a rainy day, and
aack for the Johnnies OF the future, who
will have no pillows of lace but only plain,
ugly, matter-of-fact trousers to gaze upon
from the front row of the parauet.
