An Insidious Circular.

A place to don evening dress without
going home is one of the latest conven-
fences offered to New York bachelors
In the Century Eliot Gregory has this
to say Of it:
An insidious little circular has of
late been calling the attention of New
Workers to certain down town parlors
where man may keep evening
clothes, an extra top-coat, and other
changes of apparel, avoiding in this
way the annoyance of going home to
dress. AS the colisrs of Killings
worth, who witnessed the first jour
neys of Stephenson's travelling en-
gine' did not, in all probability, appre
clate the Importance of the experiment
the revolution the little machine was
destined to work in the habits OF man
kind, so the recipient OF this circular
doubtless fails to grasp its real purport
or the possibilities that lie dormant in
that innovation. The plan IL only a
germ as yet, but what changes will en-
sue when our women have seized upon
and elaborated the scheme?
With wardrobe judiciously dis
tributed in different parts Of the city
and its suburbs, demoiselle will be
able to go through the successive
transformations required by her days
amusement, jump from riding habit to
golf skirt, into luncheon, reception and
ball dress, without the tiresome neces-
sity Of re-entering the family circle.
Think what saving of nerves and cab
fare will RESULT Two Of New York's
largest department stores already pro-
vide bath rooms where customers can
take dips between tussel at the bar
gain counter and a quick lunch. The
phrase, "All the comforts OF home"
will soon be as obsolete as the place
Itself, and returning there except to
sleep will be eliminated from the list
of Il damsels duties.
