THE NEWEST WRINKLES IN rAsrrx,xas Ann
oARrERs-How GIRL SHOPS.

Every one knows that carriers have gone out and cir
oes have come but did any stop to trace the analogy
between the decsdencs Of the and the popularity Of
the othsrs asks the New York Sun II 10 the wearing
OF Tights Of course that brings the garter into desue
ude that is that reduces the number g.rters worn
oy ons-half If you see swsgrer girl with gold rib
Don one Inch in width clssped around her waist you
may wager your bank account that she has its mate
ciasped around her leg. Just below the knee. What
for' o. Just for the quaint concet of the thing.
Its amusing to watch the pretty girls shopping for
tights. With the perversity of things mundane, the
hose counters are presided over by men, and it is very
embarrassing them think you are Skin, dancer
or ballet farorife. And the pretty girl gets the
tights on an order from tho country. or 70. friend
or her mother, or grandmother even Then she
hustles home and puts them on her own slender ex-
tremities, throws away her garters and harness of
elastic straps ana IN half an hour that she has
never really lived before. The lines OF anxiety
smooth out OF her fair brow, the shadows of care
soften from her eyes She knows her stockings won't
come down. and battle. murder and sudden death lose
their terrors for her.
One Of the most remarkable things about a woman
is tho way she manages from little girlhood up TO
keep one corner OF her mind clear and devoted to her
stockings in the midst of the most distressing grief
and anxiety. As child. no matter how much she
wants beat her brother in the race she has to stop
II her stockings come down. As woman she may. IN
the stress Of her woe, let her harpins fall out she
may forget to eat Sleep but she never reaxes the
vigilance over her stockings The amount Of nerve
force consumed In lifetime Of this constant strict
surveillance is enormous. Now that the tyranny of
the garter s ended Is little wonder that our girls are
growing taller and that our women ere stepping mn
bravely into the worlds high places and winning
laurels in flames great temple.
