GIRLS AND BALL DARS
DRESSES,
"Can a Modest Girl wear a Ball Dress?" is the subject of an article io M. d. F. by Mrs Coulson Kerashan. She says
I am asked whethers modest gist can wear a ball dress. Frankly, the only immodesty seems to me to lie in the necessity for raising the question.

"the women" were all what under-dressad, and he remarked afterwards When I looked at those

***! My theory in, as I have said, that a modest git may feel shy in wearing har first ball dress, but never shame if she feels shame, if she is unduly self-conscious, and thinks about her neck being bare, something of the charm and the bloom of bar beautiful fresh maidenhood id missing. If there should be a cow, blush on her cheek, it should come from the excitement and pleasure of the new surroundings, the govalty of the first ball, not of self-conscious Desk, which tells that something of innocence is gone.
* Disillusionmost may or may not come with later years, but while out girls "are" giflo, let ar try to keep them them so. For this reason. 1 dislike that class of picture where boys and girls are represented as kissing each other, which we see in come Christosas numbin, and which are entitled Little Sweebeans, or some such name. Young folks will learn to "kiss roon enough-pubap! too 1000-wilbour being encouraged after this fashion, Let bom be healthy boy and healthy girl as long sa they can be, Do not transplant the flower that is unfolding is beauty in the garden naturally, to the hothouse, where it will be forced into premature bloom.
A young man recently remarked to the writer; "There is no such thing as the fresh young girl in Society now. The girl of eighteen bas all the knowledge and all the aria of her mature winter, he misery of it is that those was much truth in the scan's words, and the dress the girl wears has nothing at all to do with it,
A girl can be immodest in a high dress at easily as in a low one. If her mind is sailed by the devouring of barmfal literature, by com muding with coarse-antared friends and with herself about sabjecu, she should leave aloné,, then she gives the impression of immodesty, whether her neck be covered or bare and the converse is equally trun."
A young girl's bali dress must not be cut. too low, or there will be people who will be. scandahsing; but not many trouble in the leas about the subjects she chooses for convention with her companion in the dance; or that she should smile when something is said which ought to call up « blush.
"Our grandmothers would bave blushed crimson over some of the stories the young girl listens to and laughs at: to-day. The art of blushing bida fair to become a lost one. To show shims or disapproval of a. risqué- story in some circles is to be put down as hope- Jessly, provincial. The young girl breathing such an atmosphere must suffer morally. Her first evening dress it not the pivot on which the declins and fall of her modesty ture, Blu nothing new to hor. It does not come ska shock.. Has she not seen her mother wearing a bodice a low cut that the marvel is that it retains its position at all?
"I grant that there may be some natural shyness in the mind of a modest girl who for the first time ands herself in a ball dress, just as a recruit feels, shy the first time he wenis, White is considered the most becoming uniform. But in the girls cato, as in the re-colour for the coming-out' gown of a young crabs such matters is everything, ink girl, and why? Because while is, the emblem Habit in such I think of purity.

No eyes will look upon her covered, the Indian replied: "But your face bas fair Inveliness but in reverence.” no clothes,"
