COSTUME DESIGNED FOR “CRAWLERS”

WHEN Dr. Leon Meunler, a noted Paris food specialist, gave out a statement that crawling on all fours after meals was an aid to digestion, fashionable French dressmakers immediately got up a costume to be worn for this form of exercise. A club was formed called the “On All Fours Club,” and the ladies wore these gowns. The costume adopted is in black and white satin.
