FULL DRESS AT THE WAIDBERG COLONY. The "Simple lifers" of Waidbberg colony, who form the subject of the accompanying article, hold that the secrets of health and a happy, contented disposition are only to be won by leaving off all the unnecessary clothes that an effete civilisation has heaped on to the backs of men and women. If people of to-day would only forget the clothes habit and get back to nature it would not only reduce the cost of living, but wipe out class distinctions, exterminate the snob, and solve quite a number of pressing social problems. The Waidberg people have begun, and are now only waiting for the rest of mankind to follow.
