Show the bustled bustles Bust les successor although tho bustle has been doomed and has sunk into obscurity yet womankind is not satisfied and a makeshift is in sight or rather it is in use and not in sight it has taken the form this time of artificially developed hips it is the same old bustle that has reappeared but it is cut in two and the two halves moved around one on each side A lady who knows all about such things told me bhe had one on herself and when I 1 commented on her increased robustness she laughed blushed patted her hips and said its not ine its rubber false hips are the latest craze and one that is becoming popular with wonderful rapidity the pads are made of inflated rubber bags they are not so inconvenient as the bustle and not much more of a nuisance to wear go down fifth avenue any day and yon will be surprised at the number of remarkably broad hipped women you will meet they have grown wonderfully stout in I 1 the past month why do they do it oh the great advantage to be gained in appearance is the smaller look it gives to the waist I 1 dont think there is any other reason quite enough for any woman the fashion has its drawbacks too sometimes the pada blip around and the effect is unpleasant again too I 1 am always in fear that a pin will puncture ono of tho things and that one ride of me will go off with a loud report yon can imagine how lop sided one would look after such an accident its horrible to think of 2 new york herald |
