MODEST APPAREL.

DR. TALMAGE says in his sermon “Gates of Hell.” “I charge all Christian women neither by style of dress nor adjustment of apparel to become administrative of evil. Perhaps none else will dare to tell you, so I will tell you that there are multitudes of men who owe their eternal damnation to the boldness of women’s attire. Show me the fashion-plates of any age between this and the time of Louis the Sixteenth of France and Henry the Eighth of England, and I will tell you the type of morals or immorals of that age or that year. No exception to it. Modest apparel indicates a righteous people. Immodest apparel always indicates a contaminated and depraved society.”
