10 such an extent has the evil grown.
II may be mentioned, that at a certain fa-

SO IT a customer comes to us wearing
the old-fashioned style of corset, and
does not seem inclined to conform to
newer ideas, she must go elsewhere for
her gowns.
I'VE have heaps of customers whose
measurements are three and four inches
smaller than they were last year, and in
almost every case this is due to the

According to the North China Herald,
there is movement along the Hoang-

the Natural Feet, has been established,
its sole purpose being the determination

of native and foreign women. It's first
step toward reform is the publication
of it's propaganda and a petition to for
eigners to aid in freeing Chinese women
from mortifying customs.
When you come right down to the
bottom Of the matter It is time the
women Of China were given a chance
to catch up with their western sisters.
There is no reason on earth to believe
they are not naturally gifted with as
broad an understanding. The project,
therefore, should not be footless II
there is anything in the old saying.
''He who runs may read" their new foot

It is not anticipated that the innova-

however, cause confusion for future

COST OF CLOTHES IN RUSSIA.
Men Pay About Seven and q Half Dol
.. lars Year and the Women
Only Three.

Barring the inhabitants of the earth
who wear practically no clothes at all,
the costume Of the average Russian
costs the least. Ten rubles, or about
$780, will clothe male citizen Of the
czar's realm. while the woman's Co.'S
tune will cost less than So.
The mans costume, says an ex-
change, consists Of coarse cotton
trousers tucked into boots of half
dressed leather. o cotton shirt, and a
sheepskin coat. A coarse Camlet
caften bound around with sash COM
pletes the dress.
The women wear a sarafan. or long
petticoat, which is held up by straps
running over the shoulders, a chemise
with sleeves to the elbow, a kerchief
over tho head. and pair Of shoes.
Stockings are sometimes worn, but
more frequently the legs and feet are
bound with strips Of cotton or linen
cloth. For outdoor wear a quilted
Jacket or long cloak Is added.
The simplicity and cheapness Of the
dress is not due to any lack Of vanity,
but to the poor circumstances under
which the majority Of the Russians
live.

MORE BEAUTY DoN'Ts.
secrets Of Having shnpely and Pretty
Nails and Soft and Delicate
Fingers. # - s

Don't over-manicure the hands. or
they will become SO tender as to be cas-
lily Redeemed and roughened.
Don't wash the hands oftener than
necessary, and dry them thoroughly aft
er every washing.
Don't neglect the palms of the hands.
They need attention as much as the
backs of the hands. Rub an emollient
--perfumed honey is good-into the
palms with thumb and foreflnger.
Don't neglect massaging and knead-
ing of the hands, in order to secure good
circulation, which helps to keep the
hands white and make the skin plant.
Don't forget to pinch the ends of the
fingers now and then. This will do
a good deal toward making the fingers
taper.
Don't polish the nails too highly, or
they become SO brittle that the slightest
contact with anything hard breaks them
down to the quick, thereby causing in
tense pain.
Don't file or scrape the nails; either
process only helps to thicken them.
They should be rubbed down with the
very fine emery and cinnabar powder.
which is used for polishing she'll and
ivory. s..-.s
Don't allow the nails to remain long
soiled with anything that will stain
them.
Don't always use nail polisher or
buffer. Once in awhile try polishing
the nails on the palm of the hand.
Don't trim the nails to sharp points.
If there is anything that will set the
teeth on edge it is to shake hands and
feed a slight Craze from such claws.
It is feline.
Don't always use scissors to trim the
nails; q file is better to round off the
edges. Nothing tends to injure the
nails so much as persistent trimming
with pair Of scissors.
Don't think that one rule applies to all
finger nails. No two sets of nails can
be treated quite alike. not alone because
of their texture, but of their formation.
To trim some nails overmuch renders
them thick and ugly. To leave others
TOO long uncut increases their tendency
to brittleness.
Don't wear rings that are too small.
The inevitable result is Disagreement
from red and swollen hands and knuck-
les.
Don't wear gloves that are size too
small or that fasten too tightly. This
prevents free circulation and makes the
hands red.
Don't wear gloves stitched with COL
ors. They make the hands look larger.
Don't think the appearance of the
hands a trifling consideration. A beau
tiful hand may be even more fascinating
than beautiful face, and nothing more
strongly marks the person of birth and

Experiments in Uganda Tend to Prove
That 1t Is Communicated by
the TSetse Fly.

The British authorities in Uganda
are making great efforts to discover
the source of the terrible sleeping
sickness" which periodically decimates
the natives of that territory and other
parts of Africa, and, if possible, to find
means Of preventing it's spread, says
the New York Times. In May last year
the Royal society dispatched a commits
sion to Entebbe, Uganda. for the pur-
pose of investigating the disease, and
early this year second commission
was sent from England for the same
purpose.
The conclusions of the joint commits
sion are now available through the
publication of a progress report. This
shows that the disease is caused by a
minute parasite in the blood. which
could not be conveyed from man to
man. Consequently suspicion fell upon
the tsetse fly, species of which, SIM
liar to the one prevalent in Zululand,
was found abundant in Uganda, and
experiments are now in progress to set
tie whether the Uganda tsetse carries
in its blood the identical parasite
which is peculiar to the disease, and
whether it can pass it to an animal.
One rather tentative experiment
seems to show this, and it is expected
that the truth or falsity of the theory
will soon be determined.
