There will always be drunkards, and women who lace themselves, to ndmonish by precept, to warn by example. The two lectures of the ung surgeon, Fred. Treves, on the subject of eminine Dress,” delivered recently at Kens- ington Town Hall, have started the ball rolling once again in this vital direction. How learned men are in the mysteries of women's farbelows! At one time It used to be considered -good tone in men to confess an utter ignorance of the manifold complications of woman's attire, but nowadays our gentiemen seem to pride them- selves on their knowledge of beauty in lace, in India shawls, even of the various dress fabrics worn by the women they love. The girls are all laughing at young Treves, who himself is young and rather uncommonly handsome, for his onslaught on the tight-lacing habits of the sex, and the girl in particular who fainted at his first lecture, and concerning whom the lecturer cried out as she was borne from the room: “Don't pity her; cut her stay laces!" has vowed she will have revenge some day in lacerating his heart with her large brown eyes if ever she gets him within love range. A direct outcome of Treves’ lectures is the exhibition of hygienic wearing apparel for women which is now taking place at the Cavendish Rooms. Women only are admitted, and the afternoon [ looked in th» place was litera ly thronged with ladies. young and old, of all classes, alike anxious to discover some made of habiliment which shall do away with the present cumbrous, inconvenient and expensive one, The feature of the exhibition is Lady Harberton’s divided skirt, a clever ar- rangement of the old Bloomer dress. Not only is this garment exhibited on several dummies, but the ladies who expatiate on its merits are wearing it, so that observers may see for them- selves the modest effect of it, while the conven- ience of having the lower limbs separately swathed and not hobbled together in one tight- fitting case is a matter which scarcely needs laudation. CORSETS OR NO CORSETS. Fred. Treves says the notion that women need the support of stays is an entirely erroneousone; nevertheless, the eye of the present generation 1s so accustomed to the sight of the female form ‘as it appears in stays that a woman who dis- penses with this adjunct of the toilet is sure to be curiously commented on. Our favorite con- tralto, Madame Antoinette Sterling, prides her- self on the fact that she has never worn atays and never will do so; but I suppose she is un- aware of the remarks which her appearance sometimes calls forth in a miscellaneous au- dience. Often I have heard the question pass from lip to lip ina concert hall where she was singing: “ What is the matter with her 2” “What afrightful figure she has!” ‘ How badly her dress fits!" And these remarks come from men as wellas women. Ellen Terry dispenses with stays and all her gowns in Jutiet are mereshape- less. wrap} of different degrees of splendor. But Ellen has the figure of a slim girl ot thirteen—bustless, high-shouldered, square- waisted; in tact, that of the model esthete. Fred. Treves says no woman could live an in- stant if her waist were no bigger than those rep- resented In the French fashion plates ; but there is an actress at the Gaiety, named Kate Vaughan, whose waist is for thinness a sight to behold. It is a small, round column, like a section of little stove pipe, and it seems not very much bigger around than her own neck. Yet Kate Vaughan lives, dances, sings and turns the heads of her crutch-and-toothpick adorers. PHYSIOLOGIOAL ATTIRE. All sorts of makers of hygienic apparel put in @ commercial appearance at the health ex- hibition. A staymaker exhibits corsets whose entire front is elastic webbing, which yields at every movement and only expands the more with lacing. It was especially designed for the use of women during a season when tight lacing would be more than injudiciou’; it would take the proportions of a crime. But there is no time when women might not use with advantage stays thus fashioned. This simple truth is that very frequently women are overlaced when they really do not know it. ‘The internal organs are so easily compressible that, as Mr. Treves said, a woman who has not the slightest idea or intention of tight lacing may be unduly Real abaepes by a matter of two inches, while a really tightly-laced woman re- duces her normal waist-size some elght or ten. The diagrams hanging around the walls of the room in which the exhibition is held show the female form divine as it should be, with the size and location of the interior organs dis- tinctly defined. These pictures must give the nightmare to some of the fashionable girls and women who attend the exhibition. Neverthe- less must I alas confess that, to the eye of the modern, the ladies so attired present a dainty, frou-frou appearance with which those habited in the new hygienic apparatus sadly contrast. It is this quality of concealing defects and ex- aggerating beauties in the wearer which forms the strenghold of modern fashionable attire. ROMEO AND JULIET. Thave been again to see ‘Romeo and Juliet” atthe Lyceum. Whata magnificent series of pictures! Let us hope the divine William is permitted to have a nightly glimpse at them by the dread powers which now direct the destiny of that mighty mind. To say the scenery is superb is a futile effort at an expression of the sense of grandeur it conveys. Never in the an- nals of the stage has there been known such solidity of structure. Juliet’s balcony is simply asemi-circular loggiaon a piazza of Carrara marble, with Corinthian pillars below and above it, a marble dome finishing the roof, Romeo pushes apart the boughs of real trees to make his way to her. He jumps up ona low marble coping which surrounds a bed of flowers and they try to grasp hands, but tall as Romeo is and downbending as is Juliet they cannot reach each other's fingers, so great is the distance. At each change of scene the lights all over the house are so lowered that the audience ls al- most in midnight obscurity and this lasts until the scene is completely transformed, so thagwe have no opportunity of seeing the rough edges ofthe stage carpenter's shifting process. When all is ready up go the lights again on another exquisite Vision. The mute actress who person- ates Romeo's first love, Rosaline, in the ball seene at Capulet’s, is ‘a wondrous beauty. Dressed In a superb combination of lemon-col- ored damask, with strings of pearls festooned here and there, she is a picture such as one sees on the old canvases at the Louvre, the National Gallery and the Pitti Palace. WONDERFUL CosTUMES. One must see the fabrics worn by the charac- ters in this piece to believe the assertion that they have been woven on British and Conti- nental looms expressly for this revival and then one will doubt it. The gown of blue damask, with nut brown border, worn by Ellen Terry during the scenes directly following the ball (in which she wears white satin) is reported to have cost thirty-five dollars a yi In the bed-room Scene she wears a sort of night-gown, in the Japanese shape, of soft, sheeny-white silk, which clings to her frailform and delineates every outline like a bath-wrapper. foom dress is asort of over-smock of white satin, quite loose at the waist, and with | arm-hol through which appear the neat! fed Velasquez sleeves of an under-dreas.

From the Phils. Times. Speaking yesterday of the letters from Super- intendent Thayer, of Fairmount Park, and Cap- tain Chasteau, of the park guard, informing Mr. Remak, chairman of the park commission’s committee on superintendence and police, that experience had proven unmistakably that bi- cycle riding in the park scared horses and was aconstant source of danger, H. B. Hart, man- ager of the bicycle school in Horticultural Hall and a member of the Philadelphia Bicycle Club, said: “Mr. Thayer's complaints are entirely of a personal character. The accident which he mentions as having happened near the east park reservoir occurred to himself, and in con- sequence he has become prejudiced against the machines. Shortly after the accident he wrote to me and said that he had a horse which shied whenever it saw bicycles, and he would be glad if I would try and get the animal accustomed to them. Now it is our rule whenever we hear of such a case to go, and as it were, break the horses in, and we never quit them till they have become perfectly used to see us flash by on our iron steeds. It we hear of a case, however Indirectly, we set out and find it and rarely have much trouble in familiarizing the animal with the bicycles. I therefore set out with two friends to tackle Mr. Thayer's horse and in less than half an hour we had tamed him. We could shoot across in front of his head within a few inches of him without causing him to shy, and in fact I went so close several times that 1 thought bis foot would catch inthe spokes. In the face of this Mr. Thayer can hardly say with perfect correctness that ‘horses do not become accustomed ‘to bicycles.’” His other statements are very vague and amount to this:—‘'That if it had fallen out that something had occurred another thing might have happened.” Ifan accident happens in the lied and there is a pierce in sight it is all lamed on the unfortunate bicycle. With regard to Commissioner Baldwin's accident it is very doubtful if a bicycle had madre to do with it. The fact was that two bicycles were leaning against an adjacent tree an were made thescapegoats. There are reports from thirty-seven guards who have seen horses “shy or frighten” at bicycles, but I will give you an instance of what might have been ascribed to the machines if one of the guards had not been smart enough to find out the real cause. A gen- tleman was driving some horses in the park when one of the wheels passing over a twig caused a slight snap, which made one of the horses shy. As there happened to be a bicyole within a@ radius of a few miles, of course the gentle reported that his horse had been frightened by it. The guard, however, saw what was the real cause, but as the gentleman was incredulous he got him to again drive over the twig, andthe snap and fright were repeated; this was convincing. Now, if the guard had not happened to have had his eyes open the affair would have been reported as another instance of the danger attending the presence ot bicrcles inthe park. Probably nearly all the instances reported are equally important.” T. K. Longstreth, who has been president of the Philadelphia Bicycling Club since its forma- tion, said: “It is another instance of the preju- dices which always exist against anything new. A horse in the park is much more likely to be scared than when he is going along in the street. A horse will shy at a newspaper, but that is no argument for the abolition of the press. A baby- carriage ora mau running will also startle him very frequently, but no one talks of extinguish- ing baby-carriages. The truth is, that accidents caused by horses becoming frightened by bicycles are very rare, and although I sympathize very much with Mr. Thayer for the fright he sus- tained a few days ago, Ido not think it ought to cause our exclusion from the park. I have ridden over three thousand miles in my time, and 1 don’t remember a single occasion on which my, machine terrified a horse. All the members of the club will tell you that accidents caused by the bicycles are almost unknown. Mr. Thayer and Mr. Chasteau have an unaccountable preju- dice against bicycles, but public opinion is in our favor and will protest against our exclusion from the park. people don’t like them because they can’t ride, but I don’t wish you to state that I insinuate that the reason these gen- tlemen hate them is because they have tried to ride and got nothing but smashed hats and bruised bones.” as usual, they A Humorist’s Last Joke.
