I hnvo told this old story in tho faint
ho) o that tho men of tho family may see
it and atop telling their wives and
daughters not to wear hoops. Thero ia
a very strong spirit of rebellious curios
ity in all women. They would liku to
know what thu inon would do. about it
if thoy did wear hoops. In ono state
they havo already passed Inws against
hoops with what result? I think half
thu women in that state havo written to
Now York to order a set. In Albany re
cently a bill was presented for tho bui
press-on of tho hoo, but I bcliovo it was
squelched. Tho Now York woman is a
law to herself, and if alio wants hoops
not even 11 bull from tho popo would
stop her wearing them.
I gnvo up ono entire dny this week to
hunting for a store where thoy sell hoops,
but I found nono, not a single ono. Some,
even 11 good many, of tho dressmakers
sow steels in dresses of certain forms,
but tho English, German and Amoricnn
dressmakers aro greatly opposed to hoops,
and it remains to bo seen whether these
three nations will bo stronger than
France, or sho stronger than thoy.
If tho newspapers would only exorcise
a little self denial and refrain from talk
ing about them, and tho "men folks"
from forbidding their "women folks" to
wear them, thero would bo no spico in
hoops for womon, and really ull tliat wo
want is to bo permitted to use our com
mon sense. Nobody likes to bo driven,
but women particularly aro willing to bo
led providing it is dono tho way they
lead n pig to Cork viz., protend that you
want him to go to Kilkenny.
The present styles in tho form of gowns,
and particularly skirts, are bo very near
perfect that wo need not nsk anything
better, and I somehow hnvo a gleam of
hope that hoops will at least not beconio
universal. How pretty and sensible
the English gowns aro after tho ridicu
lous pictures wo got from Paris! Tho
