 Fencing is such a severe exercise that awomaH should at first do all she can to favor herself. The. loosest clothing, the easiest heels and me shortest skirts. Be Comfortable is what tell my pupils. At the time athletics came in for~ wo- men-you will remember that it was less than ten years ago-there was loud hue and cry against the corset. The reaction against the tight facing of former days was so great that the excited ones rushed out to spread the tidings of emancipation. They wanted no more corsets.
 Tn the midst of all this, while the cry was loudest, up rose Margaret Sangster and declared herself in favor Of the corset. It may be well enough said she, for the girl who has never worn them, to go with out corset. But the woman who has been boned all her life must continue to wear a support of this kind.
 Immediately women who had torn off their corsets and were suffering untold tor ture put them on again and by loosening them gradually got so thar they could go without them finally.

PHILIPPINE COTTON
General Joe Wheeler Sends a Sample
 to Memphis

From the Memphis Commercial-Appes4,
 The following is a letter recehsed7by a local firm from General Joseph svhfeler, now in the Philippines. Its cottssn Tefer- ences show that the old soldier has not for gotten his southern rearing, ands that he still retains more than passing fttterest in the feecy staple. 5s
 It may also be remarked that he has his peculiar views regarding the Philippine in- surrection, and does not hesitate to charge its continuance to the encoura cement which Aguinaldo has received from misguided symrathizers in this country. Here is the letter:
 Paniqui. November 2S, 1S99
 Messrs. Brooks, Nicely X Co.,, Memphis, Tenn.-Gentlemen: I inclose a little Philip pine cotton. which was grown on wines very much like cotton in the United States I pulled uo one vine, which measured' 9ih feet in height.s You will observe thatsthe seeds all adhere to each other. I am told that for the most part the people extract the seed by hand. In the province of nocos there are few hand machines to remove the seed. and probably they haye them in

 'sThe most severe strain of fencing comes upon the wrist. Unless you have a wrist like iron you cannot parry thet1hrusts of your antagonist. Rememher that vol stand facing him and that he 4s- aiming at your heart with his sword. If you stand still you are sure to receive the sword; you cannot jump backward far enough. to es- cape You must meet his thrust with a swordsmanlike counter thrust. This is done by intenposing your sword .in such d manner as to send his pointing upward in to the-air. With your blade you strike his underneath and the thrust is diverted. I explain this because I have received so many letters asking about the sport and how it is played. -
 "rhe best way to learn fencing is with another person, not neces sarily, a teacher. Two beginners stand facing each other about five feet apart. See that the foils are well provided with their buttons. Let one fencer make thrust and let the other seek to parry 1t by bending backward if the thrust is wild, or by meeting 1t with a parry, if the thrust be true. Practice of this kind will teach the beginner more than hours of study on paper.
 T am asked what is accomplished after fencing is learned; and to this I can say Nothing. If you do not derive enough pleasure from the exercise of fencing to re- pay you for your time and trouble, then your time is wasted.
 Bowling, pool, billiards, home-tennis, and all other house games for women are admirable, but to my mind nothing devel- ops beauty, slenderness and grace like fencing"

ing of the head, are taught in this one ex- ercise.
 .'When first began teaching I ordered all my pupils to take off corsets but l soon found them complaining of backache. so that I now leave the matter of wearing corsets to themselves.A A woman's back be- comes muscleless through corsets; she de- ponds upon them, and after a few years she really needs them, becomes i'll without them in fact. At first fencing exercise l order all corsets loosened. At the second I advise the untying of all strings. After awhile, as she grows stronger, woman will leave them off of her own accord. She will do this soon as she finds she does mot miss them.
 "In the matter of heels I adopt the same rational measures. If accustomed to high heels I say Keep on wearing them I do not advise a change of any kind at first. Gradually woman can lower to the golf

ten the backaches are laid to athletics, which should be laid to changes in dress ing.
 "I am often asked the ideal fencing dress. It consists of short skirt as full you please in the back but very scant in the front. The waist should be plain so that 1t will not catch or hinder the wearer As fencing is very active sport the waist should be so arranged that it can be slip ped off Underneath the wearer is dressed in little silk shirt, white or colored
 That fencing is a very graceful sport no one who ever saw Mrs. Howard Gould fence in The Lady of Venice will deny Though the play was a failure, that single fencing scene lifted the actress into favor. It was a wonderful sight to see her blonde, 7 slender and full of grace, darting the sword right and left, here and there, with the most wonderful dexterity. Bernhardt does it well; she was coached by Maurice, her son.
 "You do not need fencing teacher. The play is to strive to reach the heart of your antagonist, or his vital parts. Of course You, fencing for sport, do not seek to kill so you fence with a foil and you take care that the button hits the point we'll
 Tn gymnasiums you see the advanced fencing classes fencing with tin hearts pinned 'on their blouses over their own hearts. The tin hearts glisten like the sun and the pretty fencer tries to stab the tin with her foil. When the button touches it the sound rings loud and clear In a real flesh and blood duel she would have killed her antagonist with that thrust.-
 ''Take the sword in your hand and make a thrust at something. Hang a pillow up if you have nothing better. Arrange it SO that 1t will swing. As it comes back stab it again Learn to keep your balance. One foot must be ahead of the other and both feet well spread The right arm is busy fhrusting the sword; the left oneAmust be outstrctched to keep the balance.

other provinces. As a rule cotton is planted at the beginning of the dry season in Mo- vember or December, and is gathered in March, April or May, but in this country most anything will grow if planted at amy time. The cotton vine dies each year the same as ours. Very little is grown, and most of the cotton used in cotton mill in Manila comes from the United States. A box of the native lint cotton, S1axS1ax17 inches, tramped hard (seed ouD, would sell for 1 peso or 1A pesos.
 There are two large cotton trees near me one about 50 feet high and the other a lit- tie less The upper part of these trees rather resembles our cotton plants in color and general appearance. Generally, the branches are horizontal or nearly so. The cotton tree blossoms about January, pos sibly a little earlier. The fruit or pod ripens about April. The leaves of the tree drop off after the pod ripens, and the tree looks as if it were dead until the leaves come again. All this varies as to time. One tree near us is full of leaves, and the pods are just beginning to appear and are now as large as buckshot. The last leaves of the other tree fell during the past week. The staple of the tree cotton is very weak and can not be used to make cloth. It is used principally for pillows. It sells at from 30 to 90 cents for 100 pods. inelose a very little of the tree cotton. also .in- close leaves from a cotton-bearing tree 40 feet high.

 P S.-I regard the -insurrection as sub stantially over. Had it not been for the action of those who are called anti-impe- rialists in the United States, who had de- luded Aguinaldo into the idea that they would secure him independence, it would have been over some time ago.
 The president of the Fllipino congress- Senor Bautisto, is at this place. He tells me that the congress and cabinet are dis persed and Agunaldo is a fugitive, and this information we have had from several other sources. These islands are very rich, and are charmlngly delightful. All they re- quire is a good, honest government. It will De a very great advantage to the United States to thave our mercantile depots so near the vast population of eastern Asia.
