The Art of Beauty. the Ugliness, themselves once considered a fate gods wove powerless avert, has become of late years a stance of no particular account, since is and largely by skillful under the control of modifications may more, effective than beauty itself. ions were formerly created for women, hut now seem to be in the est of tlie plain. A beautiful woman of course a pane ss in her own she j- worshipped- and accordingly stricte 1 : possessing all, and finding whole world ready to pay tribute, loses in a degree her originality.

Our pleasure in such marvels of dress is, of course, a perversion of taste, -ince no sculptor would wish to model a fleshless figure, however grace fully disproportionately long limbs may assume drapery. But we are all taken captive by our passion for purely sesthe tic impressions. itself, Dress has become an art in and the woman who wears it is almost subordinate; it is a senti¬ ment, a language, a confession.— Lip- Taking a Long Jonrncy.
