WAISTS THAT CLOSE IN BACK.
They Are Youthful in Appearance, but
 Troublesome to Button.

There is no denying the fact that the majority of waists will close In the back The youthful appearance of the long, straight front is a thing that Is beyond argument and where is there a woman who will neglect that which is a certain garantee of youthfulness?
 Nine out Of ten of the finer grades of white waists close up the back and fully one-half of the linen and crash waists are closed in the same manner.
 The unhandiness of the waist which buttons behind can not be disputed. A woman who lived in hotel will tell you that 1t costs her 10 cents every time she puts on her waist for the maid must hook it and those who are travelling will assure you that the waist which hooks up the back is an unmitigated nuisance. Yet, after one look at herself, and after one study of her youthful lines, the woman who has seen herself in one of these smooth fronted waists will rush off to buy an- ether for she knows that, in nothing else does she look half so we'll.
 All waists are to be worn looser and this will be good news for the woman who is tugging at her back buttons, and the buttons will be larger and the button holes mere pronounced. In- stead of being hidden under a slat they will stand out boldly and pretty and the waist will button frankly by means of buttons and buttonholes and not by the little invisible loops and the eva sive hooks which were such trouble last season.
 There is French shirt waist which buttons invisibly front and back. The method is by means of the under arm seam and the shoulder seam. It is not a difficult thing to manage. And there Is another French waist which does not button at all, neither does it hook, nor is it caught together with pins.
 This mysterious waist. which neither buttons nor hooks, is made of lace. The entrance is through the back. The panels of lace are then brought to- gether and an obliging friend sews the waist in place. It is stitched together with long white thread stitches which shut it and keep it in shape.

THE DOUGLAS BREWERY.
Its Construction Will Begin at Once.
 Site Now Being Leveled.

Mir. w. H. Reno, who is fin Douglas representing the Centennial Brewing company, of Butte. Mont. has secured location for the big brewery to be built in Douglas. says the International American. This enterprise will be To- cated on ground west of the depot se- cured from the Interna tional Land and Improvement company alongside the railroad siding track recently built and not far from the plant being built by the Cast Stone company.
 Yesterday MT. Reno stated that all the plans and specifications fer the re- quired buildings for this brewery had been prepared by an architect in Mon- tana. The blue prints of the brewe, y are expected to arrive at any time now, and when they are received by MT. Reno the work will begin on the foun- dations at once. The ground is now being cleared and leVeled.
 Mir Reno stated that the buildings would cose something like $900 and would be erected of brick veneer, some thing new in this country. The esti- mated cost of the brewery is between s5O,00O and s6o0O0, and when it is com
