THE bloomer Dress" says {
Western humorist, sis a pair o
trousers very baggy at the knees
abnormally full at the pistol peck
cts, and considerably full where yor

decollete at the south end, and the
bottoms tied around the ankles OF
knees to keep the mice out. You

stockings, one foot at time in each
compartment. You can easily tell
the right side to have in front by the
buttons on the neck band"
