Invented a Skirt.Miss Ida Benoit has invented askirt protector which she thinks will enable a woman to leave her home in a silk or chiffon gown with a long train and walk along the streets or ride on the street cars without getting her skirt soiled or attracting any unpleasant attention. The protection has the appearance of a pair of skeleton bloomers, with ample fulness to carry the skirts, and with straps and belt to hold it in place. Miss Benoit recommends it for business women who must go out in all sorts of weather and for all women who must walk or climb in long skirts.—New York Sun.Not to Die In.Living in New York is delightful*1 i.
