Because a fashion is now they think it is bound to be good, and anything that is old cannot bo tolerated for a moment. But tho Greek fashions, which were stɩrë- ly more beautiful than any, usually lasted for 000 years, and thore was practically no chongo in fashion until the thirtconth century. Then, apparently, the world which land been busy thinking about other things, and concerned largely with self-pro- lection, bocamo self-conscious about dross, with the result that fashion-succoeded fashion with evor-incroasing quickness, until the present stage of what can only be called vulgarity was reached..
FASHIONS OF SERVITUDE.
"If clothes must elunge they should be ut least in harmony with their time. Can this bo said of modern clothes? I think not. There was never a time when women had moro freedom; when they were so able to travel, and to live in tho work outside the home. But you do not find this freedom oxpresso in clothes. nYou find exactly the opposite.
You find women tial up in sacks, which give them ro freedom whatever. Fature historians who look at photographs, of the pre- sent day woman will wonder how this camo to be thought an age of freedom. Women's clothes sro, in fact, in direct opposition to thio whole spirit of the time. Dress manufacturers do not supply a national want, but a national. weakness the weakness for uliango and varioty.
"If you dressed a woman with porfect figure--such as tho Venus. of Milo in modorn. fashionable clothes she would Jook absurd. Surely that proves their undesirability? But many women nowadays seem to think less of their health than of their clothes, and so long na they can woar a particular dress which'in.

SALVATION IN MUSCLE,
"I think salvation from this state of things rests with the athletic girl. She is too careful of, her health, her freedom, and her figure to put them in jeopardy by wearing unsuitable clothes, and her influence is probably in Creasing every day. It rests with her and with other sensible wo | mon to show that clothes cun lo beautiful and comfortable at g some time.
