EASE HER.
To the Editor. ® IRi Although your delightfully funny correspondent, “Stop Her,” gravely admits that he cannot add a cubit to bis stature, he might, at least have ha I the gallantry to lake “thought” before attacking the softer sex who attend St. Paul s Ohurco. If I mistake not he is an old bird, who instead of saying his prayers and trying to derive some advantage from the sermons of our dear Archdeacon, like the rest of the congregation. amuses himself by criticising the attire of the ladies present—hence, to use his own phrase, he “twigs” our Alpine hats, feathers, flowers, &c , forgetting that we are merely “ martyrs to circumstances,” as re gards the prevailing fashions. »nd that he might be much better employed in attending to his devotions. I think, Sir, your correspondent “Stop Her would act wisely in future, as far as Church is concerned, in giving woman her head and tuning to his heels.—l am, yours indignantly. . Jake. Dunedin, September 19.
