reform so long mooted Many of the
daily journals have illustrated the
styles recommended, and IL only remains
now for the strOng-minded TO doff the
trammels that have adorned and dscom
forted them in the past. The pictorial
presentation of the female as she will
appear under the new order of things
suggests to the casual glance
the Moslem houris and Oriental
maidens depicted.in the homely geogra-
phies Of long ago. On the score Of sense
and convenience the woman of mind will
not hesitate an instant; but the survival
Of the tall hat-that torment of the skull,
that destroyer Of the hair, that most

that no reform, no matter how much
needed, can hope TO make way against
