A Becoming Gown

Jeaness Miller is, perhaps, doing more for real dress reform than any other woman of the day. It is said that men are beginning to take an active interest in her work, realizing that freedom in the matter of dress is quite as imperatively necessary for their wives and daughters as for themselves. Th secret of Mrs. Miller's success is that she studies the laws of beauty, instead of lgnoring them. In her magazine foi April she says: "We say of a dress, lt is becomlng or unbecomlng when the color suits the eyes, hair, complexion and brings out no-a hpat tints. but we have yet te learn the unity that may be eatablisbed between a woman and her clothes when the woman herself Í3 properly developed, so that different parts of the physical system are free and gruceful, and the Unes of their dres3 adapted to easy and natural articulation of the different parts. When one acquires correct poise the body suggests strength power, self-command, grace and culture. Each muscle and group of muscles obey the sovereign will in a wel.' trained body."
