Shy at Fashion Plates.
e Columbus Ohio State Journal.

From Columbus Ohio State Journal.
If a woman were arranged like
those fashion plates in eastern pa
pers and walked down High street
II she could walk, the boys would
follow her as they would a stranger
from the> wilds of the wilderness.
The fearful headgear, the bulging
front. and the tapering extremities
seem to have cheated the human form
out Of all it's divine graces. The only
thing that restores one to q proper
consciousness is the fact that there
is a lovely woman hidden in that
enormity of fashion. and so the
enormity possesses a sort of charm.
which. as Pope tells US, I'VE first en-
dure, then pity. then embrace" That
Continuity of experience no fashion
has yet been able to disrupt. Yet
the wonder is that the fashion should
persist.
In our own columns we give 1t day
by day. but when We want to see
the real art in fashion we visit the
sales girls in the stores, or behold
the damsel going down the street, or
sit On our neighbors' pOrches and talk
to. the married women there. They
rescue fashion from all absurdity.

Here Is what one scholar writes OF
Saying 1t With Flowers:
There II many . word OF happiness

deepest sympathy, expressed with
