CAD III the suit in which he was 10

/. Hamilton, who fell to his death from
the fourth story Of the Southern Rail-
way Building on Tuesday evening. was
laid 70 rest in Congressional Cemetery
this afternoon. The funeral rites. which
were brief and simple were held at ?
o'clock at his late residence. 917 Mary
land Avenue southwest. Around the
hower-covered bier which bore a plain,
inexpensive casket. were the deceased's
bridc-elect. mother. brother. several
other relatives. and a corpOral's guard
Of neighbors and friends.
Hamiltons death removed the only
support bis invalid mother had on earth.
and she has been left in destitute c.V-
cUunst3nces without plans for the future
and no visible means of gaining liveli-
hood. The parent Is stricken by GRIEF
and poverty. and the young woman
whom Hamilton would have married
next week had he lived is heartbroken
She is employed in a local department
store and saw Hamilton working on the
building from which he plunged TO his
death about an hour before the accident
A Most Pathetic Case.
This is one Of the most pathetic cases
which has come under the observation
of the police for some time. Hamilton
had a good trade and a better reputa-
tfon as an expert fire-escape rigger. He
had just celebrated his twenty-second
birthda-.
Several weeks ago he had narrow
escape from death in the passing Of
2,400 volts of electricity through his
body. He was working in an ice cream
factory near Eighth and II Streets
northeast, and his rubber glove was
punctured by a piece of live electric
wire. He was knocked 70 the ground
by the shock and taken from the place
by Policeman Smith. of the Eighth pre-
cinct station. That afternoon he told
his mother OF his hair-breadth escape
and realizing that he had been always
in danger of being shocked to death by
a live wire. the young man changed his
aVocatiOn- He had worked at his new
place only one week.
About o'clock on Tuesday afternoon,
while fixing an iron railing on to the
fire escape landing opposite a fourth
story window on the railroad building
Hamilton looked over toward Thirteenth
Street and Pennsylvania Avenue and
saw his hanccc sitting in a street car
which had come 10 a stop. She was
waving a small white handkerchief at
him. and he kissed his hand TO her \
little more than an hour later she went
10 the Emergency Hospital to see him
lying in the morgue with his skull
crushed and almost every bone In his
body broken.

Long walks, horseback rides, bicycle

in developing the muscles, reducing

attention to her outer dress, and to this
too, the corset will stimulate her. Her
diet cannot be entirely neglected. if she
wishes to have her form reduced from
over stoutness or redeemed from ultra
thinness, but with the corset IS found
alton for her efforts she will be encour-
aged in the work OF regulating her
food.
Even iii this day there are plenty of
people who find nothing bad enough
to say about the corset. I have seen
one matron give way to tears while
addressing woman's club on the evils
that had been wrought by corsets. And
she was not hysterical woman either.
She had not known the corset as it was
in earlier years, before common sense
and science went to its making and she
knew the harm it had done those who
regarded it as an instrument for the
compression of the waist into smaller
compass than nature had intended for
it.
The new orset,-the straight front"
with which fashion papers and comic
columns have made every one familiar,
lis built on different plan. It does
not squeeze wOman's organs oct of
shape, but holds them in place. AS I
have said before, it must be properly
made and properly worn. The ideal
corset Is one that is made to order and
adapted to the needs of the individual
body, but for those who cannot afford
this there are substitutes in plenty.
A woman should seek until she finds
what she wants.
The new corset increases the size Of
the waist line, thereby giving room
for play of the lungs and diaphragm.
There is no difficulty in deep breathing
with the woman who wears we'll made
corset Of the present style. That is, if
she puts it On properly.
To do this she must loosen the laces.
Gone are,-or should be,-the days when
a woman kept her corsets laced for days

reaching and stretching, and by all
these means develops and improves the
figure.
But says some one "How can this be
done in the long, straight front corset
pictured everywhere" 1t cannot. But
there are corsets which come to be worn
on such occasions. The ribbon girdle
corset, made either in heavy satin rib
bon or in wide tape, or the short eques-
TRAN corset is adapted to all sorts of
vigorous exercise. 1t is so excellent for
the women who do good deal Of house
work which requires bending over and
STOPPING. While it does not hold in the
Over-plump figure as heavier, longer
corset would do, it Is far better, to yield
little restriction than to break corset
steels and suffer discomfort at the same
time.
A woman can never allow herself to
become careless about her corset. Hav-
ing gone to the expense and pains of
procuring one and learning how to wear
it she should not let the gain slip away
from her When her corset becomes
old and out of shape she should have
it Te-boLed, as it is worth while to do
with good corset. Never should she
relax her vigilance over her figure and
her way of carrying herself. Perhaps
for while it will seem a good deal of a
burden, but after time the we'll Carried
form, with the back straight, the head
up, the shoulders properly poised, will
become instructive, so that the trouble
would be to bear herself in the wrong
way.
1t is Woman's duty to keep her good
looks as long as she can and a good
figure is most important part of them.
A pretty face is all well-there are few
women who would not be willing to
yield virtue or two to possess charm
ing CONFERENCE.-THE it Iooses a great
deal it it is set on top of a badly cared
for, badly carried figure. When woman
gets toward the point where youthful
charms are forsaking her, it is boon to
her and to those about her if she has a
we'll made, we'll borne form. And the
possession of this is within her own
power.

Some women begin life without figures

their natural drawbacks the owners add
