CYCLING FOR WOMEN.

There has been much discussion OH the
healthfulness and unhealthfulness of
bicycling for women. Carried to excess
1t doubtless proves injurious, as does i'm
moderate indulgence in any sort of bodily
exercise. Tooviolent and long continued
effort, such as steep hill climbing or runs
of undue length and speed increases the
action of the heart to such an extent as
to be dangerous, and it is claimed may
even cause certain throat difficulties by
inducing rapid breathing through the
mouth However, these same results
are quite as likely to be produced by
overexertion i'll tennis, swimming or
any other active amusement. On the
other hand, many doctors recommend
the moderate use of the bicycle to per-
sons having delicate lungs, nervous dys-
pepsia, melancholia (Which is often an
other name for iD or rheumatic tend
ency. Fortunately women have not
adopted the STOPPING style of riding.
which is one of the main counts against
bicycling in opposing physicians eyes.
AS long as the woman rider sits upright,
with her chest we'll out and her shoulders
thrown back, SO long will she be strong
argument in favor of the wheel.
Like swimming, bicycling brings an
entirely new set of muscles into play
not solely i'll the legs. rs many suppose,
but through the whole body. The cir
culation is thereby increased, and if a
proper position in the saddle is maintain
ed the lungs are expanded and the di-
gestive powers strengthened. This last
fact alone should be ample recommends
ton of the amusement to American
women, so many of whom are sufferers
from dyspepsia and tho thousand kin
dred annoyances that arise from sed-
entary life and lack of open air. An
hours ride at sunset will do wonders
toward counteracting the mental and
physical irritability consequent on long
days sewing or writing and makes the
probability of a quiet nights rest twice
as good.
The habit of wearing tight clothing
while riding cannot too strongly be rep
rehended. To cramp the muscles of the
body at the moment when they are be-
ing brought into moro or less strong
play, to crowd together the vital organs
when both the heart and lungs arc being
called upon for extra effort and need
perfect freedom of action, cannot fail to
be harmful as well rs uncomfortable
and to give rise to evils which will I'M
justly be considered the fault of tho
wheel, while they are i'll reality caused
by the folly of the rider. Easy fitting
garments and not too many of them
should be the rule. Wool should always
be worn neSt the skin, as it absorbs
dampness and prevents sudden chill on
dismounting from the wheel

them look ugly. and, better than all, they
know what is and what isnot becoming
That the wide skirts are ungraceful
when stiffened is certain, and SO they
must be modified to reasonable proper
tiOnS.
Some OF the very prettiest dresses of
the season are now being sent to the vari-
GUS watering places, and they have full
gored skirts, it is true, but that facti is not
made obtrusive by crinoline facings.
i'll Saratoga is of salmon pink silk null
with a golden CLEAN in its folds and pale
brown lozenges. The waist is quito
plain and ends under belt of rich pas
sementerie, and there are two bands of it
forming opening, which is filled with
white lace. The collar is of the same.
The waist and sleeves are of thin, stiff
surah, and there is u full rose plating OF
the same around tho bottom.
Another handsome frock for garden
parties and the races at that famous re-
sort is of blue and white striped Greek
silk. The skirt is gathered to thu waist
and has four ruffies cut on the straight
and superposed. The sleeves are simple
gigot, and there are full white lace bre-
telles and whto satin ribbon sash with
windmill bow and side draping. The
bent straw hat has a large bunch of blu
cts and white ribbon. The young own
ers of these two dresses have had them
faithfully copied in print and striped
zephyr, and these will be for morning
walks and piazza loungings, for the day
of white wrappers in the morning has
gone by, and no lady leaves her room in
wrapper, no matter how ornate it
may be.
Trim white null and jaconet dresses
with Il narrow ruffle at the bottom, &
ribbon belt with or without ends, Il
wide hat and Marie Antoinette fchu
make the prettiest of dresses for Sara
toga for the youthful. Zephyrs, cham
brays, lawns and similar cotton goods
are also Worn. The light silks and gren-
adines are worn by the ladies of maturer
years, but gowns that would be suitable
for Newport would be far too warm for
Saratoga
The filmiest and thinnest of all goods
should be chosen by those who intend to
80 to Saratoga.
For Long Branch the same style and
texture of the gowns planned for New
port are suitable. as the cool breeze from
the sea makes such necessary, and there
need be no difference in the evening
dresses. For Asbrry Park and Ocean
Grove II rather more sedatc and simple
style i'll dress is expected. While at Cape
May and Atlantic City there are two
styles distinct and different in vogue.
One is the neat and precise but always
elegant and ladylike Philadelphia mode,
and the other that of any and every
