Dress That kills.

Dr Emily Bruce recently declared in a
lecture that more women die annually In
England from the effects of faulty dressing
than from all contagious diseases com
bined. Miss Bruce goes on to consider the
attributes OF an ideal business and street
dress First of all, she says, its lines
should follow, in general way, those of
the ''ndeformed body, giving ample room
everywhere for absolute freedom of move
ment. Its moderate weight should be sup
ported by the shoulders, and the skirt. at.
tached to the waist, should be sufficiently
short to escape contact with the ground in
walking and in descending or ascending
stairs and steps. Further, Miss Bruce
adds, 1t should furnish the maximum OF
warmth with the minimum Of weight,
should be suitable and becoming to the
wearer, comfortable, graceful and pictur-
esque, 80 as to form harmonious whole.
conveying to the observer some idea of the
personality of the individual. Miss Bruce's
opinion, however, that there should be no
prevailing fashion, but that the costume
OF each person should be suited to her own
taste, character and station, though yery
rational in idea, will not meet with the
sympathy of most women and would be
found difficult to carry into operation,
