Dress Reformers sought Vatnly
for q Observation.
IcoPYRrGHr. lsAl

Where all the dress reforners OF tho
last thirty years have failed TO leave so
much as a finger mark, the bicycle has
calmly ridden down and rolled over the
traditions of centuries. without so much
rs blowing Up its tire or oiling its bear
iHys.
Women In brooches were fabulous
monsters O year ago; to-day, nobody
turns his head TO look a. them.
The first woman who put on l0nicker-
boclers in New York wasted a lot of
cloth in reassuring fullness. AS she
entered a business Office one day last
spring the men, who at once remem-
bered errands in that immediate vicin-
ity, said one to another in spite of the
Turkish voluminousness of her trousers:
"A fellow has TO have once in awhile
. new sensation"
Yesterday morning as stood on
busy street corner. there flashed by,
lodging cable cars and wagon traffic,
q woman who judged rightly that the
public had had enough, perhaps, too
many yards OF reinsurance. Her
breeches were as tight as II she had
grown in them. They We're black, and
30 smooth that a new variety of all
over corsets began TO be suspected. A
little coat was the only .protestation Of
femininity. This had skirts. quite full
skirts, that came down, not too far,
about the frankly assertive legs upon
the wheel. A last years bonnet would
have been noticeable The breeches
passed unheeded.
And this means?
Nothing much, except that the day

But has anything yet happened?
Nothing in addition to the bicycle
dress itself-dress here is to be read in
a general sense and without sex spe-
cialization-exceptt the decline of the
skirt in underwear.
This is how the young woman OF
New York is apt to be clothed: In lieu
of petticoat she steps into garment
called divided skirt by courtesy.
This garment is made of silk by pref
erence, or of some soft stuff that
hangs in nice folds like fine yelling.

John Jacob Astor, for instance, will be a
a party of over seventy-fve at their
country seat on the Hudson. Mr..
Aston has ordered five hundred turkeys
for his employees, one for each, a fact
which speaks pretty significantly for
the number Of his retainers. Mr.. As

wealth and the occasion will undoubt-
eddy be millionaire's feast. All the
Webbs are TO be there, and the
Yznagas, besides Mrs. Paran Stevens
and the Turkish minister.
II think society will make very
merry" said Ward McAllister, land
all the clubs have arranged some OBJ
servance, apart from mere eating and
drinking. I shall spend the day in
New York myself, but most of the peo-
pie l know are going into the country.
You see, it is the thing to go into the
country during the winter holidays.
No, there is no etiquette more appro-
pirate to Thanksgiving day than to
any other occasion of social observance.
You sometimes hear Of Thanksgiving
good form but that is nonsense. There
is only one good form"
Mr.. McAllister did assert, however,
that turkey with cranberry sauce is
imperative, and to that extent there
may be said to exist some sort of rule
for the day. He declared that society
people would not dream of evading
that gastronomic rule.
