Dressmakers Told How They Go Or
Shocks for q Man Visitor.

Mere man walked into the Dressmakers'
Protective Association meeting. at Masonic
Hall yesterday afternoon and paused, dumb
with amazement at the assembly Of glo-
riously gowned beauties.
On each fair figure was sign: please
Don't Handle" and by this mere man
knew that they were wax, and his heart
came back to its normal condition.
There were other figures present, which
drcled slowly about the visions, giving
them furtive pinches and making notes
while they spoke of many things in Ian
guage unintelligible to the man.
Seeking enlightenment he found that
Miss Elizabeth White had just finished her
lecture on THE fit OF the new waist, and
that the babel was the dressmakers OF
many States commenting on the words OF
wisdom.
Thirty. three States were represented,
and more delegates are expected in time
Saturday. The demonstration is to be given
with real live models, but the announce
ment read 40 men admitted.
The man tried to look panied, and Miss
offer to show him Just how the new waists
are to go on. He ex planned hastily that
he was bachelor and fed while there was
yet time.
