hitting to the annoyance Of being held up
at almost every corner by obsequious fell
lows cringingly inquiring II they had any
clothes hanging in their wardrobes that
they wanted to get rid of for cash. But the
women to whom this question Is submitted
do not appear to be annoyed when they are
thus tackled on the street-indeed. they ap-
pear to be rather fattered over their So
ncitors presumption that they have more
handsome clothes than they know what to
do with. The window displays in the wo-
mems secondhand shops are not confined
to dresses alone. but include fancy and ex-
pensive shoes, imported millinery, rich
laces. splendid furs and even lingerie OF the
most ornate and furbelowed character. The
almost paltry sums which the secondhand
women pay to their selling customers for
the things of which they have grown tired
make it possible for the rich secondhand
things to be sold at about one-sixth their
first price. and New York women of lin
tied incomes are no longer chary, as they
were at first. of openly patronizing estab-
lishments where 1t is possible for them to
buy scarcely-worn costumes of an original
value of $50 or 500 for the hard-won $25
which they have laid aside for the purchase
of dress. c. l.. Z.

fancy gewgaws and glass and china orna-
fnents that have served their turn with
the original party-goers are made to shine
in other circles. Very popular young wo-
men have their winters accumulation of
favors and souvenirs spoken for months
ahead by district workers and collectors for
charitable purposes. The kindergarten
classes at the juvenile asylums count 1t a
festal day when the boxes of favors come
for distribution. Some of the favors go to
brighten old ladies' homes and invalids'
quarters.
A methodical young church woman keeps
her friends well reminded of the favors
and souvenirs she wants for her working
girls clubs and children's societies. Out of
the Accommodations bestowed, she makes
three separate allotments. The long, broad
Scarfs and lace-trimmed CONNECTIONS that
are untarnished. she hands over to the class
in millinery, which works of evenings under

wear. The less fresh and desirable pieces
go to make doll frocks for the younger
sisters OF the little mothers. The gilded

Science and Fashion in Germany.

Berlin Correspondence London Telegraph.
Now that the apostles Of a reform in
feminine costume. after many years of
earnest agitation. have at last succeeded In
getting the so-called reform dress adopt
ed by increasing numbers of German ladies,
and were beginning to congratulate them
selves on having rendered a conspicuous
service to the health Of generations unborn.
an eminent medical authority, in the per-
son of DR.. Meller, head of the Consumption
Hospital at Belzig, near Berlin. has sudden
ly started up to declare that the reform
dress is most deleterious garb. The dress
in question, 1 must be allowed to explain,
dispenSes with the corset and consists to
outward appearance of a loose garment
hanging down in a single fold from the
neck to the feet, like dressing gown. This
dress, the doctor says, weighs entirely on
the shoulders, thereby heavily pressing on
the lungs and hampering their expansion.
He exhorts ladies to leave it off at once. and
to return to the use of stays, which, If
properly worn, he tells them, tend to give
the body it's necessary support, and exert a
specially strengthening influence the
muscles Of the weak Only excessive tight
lacing, he assures the ladies, will be in
furious to their health
