Mrs. Haweis, of London, has writ ten a letter in dejence of small waists. She says : The "long and short of it is, a small waist is only pretty when it is natural for it is then, and only then, aichitecturally in proportion. A. wide, overhanging pent-bouse bust and pinched waist are excessively ug'y aDd unwholesome, too be cause unnatural . The trunk niust be of the right breadth for the branches, I e.i the shouldert. It the width of UUU UUUUIum. arms, across the back equals fifteen inches, the width of the waist ought not to be less than seven and a halt inphes. Or say the circumferenoe of the shoulders be thirty-eight inches, the circumferenoe of the waist should not bo less than twenty 'eight inches. Lastly, as to Bafe pressure. A waist which is naturally only twenty-two inches mav be enclosed in stays of twenty inches without danger ot dis comfort. Indeed, it would be dimcult to feel any support with a looser corset. In snob a case the height must not exceed nve feet two inches. But ;a waist - which is thirty inohee, measured honestly, without tbe stays, and forced into a belt of eighteen or twenty inches, is not only likely to injure the health, but is certain to iook ugly. It is architecturally bad, whatever tbe height of the frame; and no woman who knows anything about proportion, an a treenn a building, m a statue, or , who has ; an v 'eve' for grace in curves; wilt rendet herself so conspicuous an eye sore as to adopt a fashion which seems to deform her.
