that both the Southern Pacific and
Santa Fe companies will take very
active part in the municiI al election
next month. The cause for this is that
the Southern Pacific is believed to be
planning to ask the trustees for an
other franchise through the city, which
fr nchise would give that company the
right to extend the old motor line
through the heart of the city, thus Civ
inx it great advantages over the Santa
Fe, whose depot is on the edge of town.
At the last meeting of the trustees the
Southern Pacific asked the board to
modify the old motor company fran
chiss to permit the use of any size of
engine on that line, and today the
Santa Fe company fled petition with
the city clerk asking the trustees to

Waist Proportion

What is a well-proportioned waist?
Lady Haberton says: 1.-THE true pro-
portion is difference of ten inches be-
tween the circumference of the bust
and that OF the waist. Thus woman
whose bust measures thirty-six inches
should have waist measuring twenty
six inches. Bust forty inches, waist
thirty inches. and 80 on. Very few
corsets are made in this proportion,
and if they were, still fewer people
would buy them, as fashion DEGREES
that the waist should measure from
twelve to fifteen inches less than the
bust" In the course of time women
may come to realize that true artistic
effect is only attained by proper re-
spect for proportion and symmetry.

most things but dress, where they can
