WoMAN'S NEW DELIGHT.
dHE BUsTIE BhCE AGAIN, BUT IN
an AMENDED FORM.


something like professional singers who arc not
10 young rs they wero once. Dressmakers have
announced at intervals for the last forty years
the last appearance OF tho hustle, but after
short or long absence OF time IL has always
bumped itself up again. This timO It comes in
exceedingly modified form. In fact ID has ad-
vanced in civilization along with woinons
eorsets, boots, gloves, and other accessories.
Tho designs are anything but Objectionable to
wearer or observer. None of tho monstrosities
In vogue n few years ago is to be found. Thon
women woro bustles made Of wire netting.
plain wire. or heavy hair cloth. or homemade
affairs stuffed with excelsior or spongcs. A
rat trap or q small section Of barbed wire fence
bent into proper shape would have been about
rs comfortable. And these old-fashioned bustles
were not only uncomfortable when on but wero
also often source Of annoyance when of. Big
as they were, they wcro always getting lost.
What woman lives who has not lost her hustle
when dressing in hurryi This can't happen
with tho hustle Of to-day, for It is generally
made aB part Of the gown or attached to 1t in
some way. Nine women out of ten q little
bit hollow in the back. and need small hustle

stylish effect.
"Bustles arc selling like hot cakes" said

Email hustle made in them. and, where .

II seems that the shirt-waist girl Is here. and
chat she is here to stay, winter as we'll sum-
mer. When the FIRST cool snap came and sho
s discarded her summer shirt waists and put on
tightftting bodices she felt as IL she were in
prison. The tight armholes tighter waists and
close.ftting shoulders were unbearable. and SO
she CRIED "Give me q winter shirt waist, ono
that can wear II the mercury goes down TO forty
below zero" She got It. Shirt waists Of warm
flannel. velveteen in all tho beautiful new
