WOMEN'S DRESS.
COMPLAINTS OF IMMODESTY. By Telegraph.—Press Asm.— Copyright. London, Feb. 10. The Belfast correspondent of the Evening News says that the Lenten Pastorals of the Irish prelates deal vividly and trenchantly with the growing extravagance, social display, the laxity of morals and immodesty of woman's dress. Cardinal Logue describes the tendencies as an index of the degeneracy of the times, for which Ireland has hitherto been uncongenial soil, She has been known throughout the world for the dignity, reserve and purity of h:r women. Bishop McKenna, however, declares that the worst forms of laxity have not reached Ireland, but the position demands instant defensive action similar to the measures taken against the plague.—United States.
