A discouraging feature of the spring
skirts is the prevalence Of circular tucks
and circular bands of trimming. Only tall
women can afford these effects, and even
they should beware OF taking too much
away from the length of limb so essential
to grace. Another destroyer of height is
the separate coat, which promises to con-
tinue through the coming season in pongee,
silk and lace. Only one thing does favor

Importance to their respective costumes are
setting new problems for dressmakers For
handsome as these fine tiufferes are, not
every one may wear them. They are too
wide for short arms. whose shortness they
accentuate unpleasantly. They are too
bulky for plump figures. especially for
those with tendency toward short-waisted
appearance. And for extremely slender
figures they will not do, as they only serve

ness at one point while Disgusting it at
another. Often the result of this is to Gre

between shoulder and bust line dimensions.

a lure. and result in not a few dreadful
examples of these big-sleeved bodices, but
for long arms accompanied by shoulders of
moderate width. they will prove a fine

are forbidden. there are models galore of
less striking forms, and safe choice from
these should not be difficult.
While dressmakers are as insstent as
ever on making the tops. of their patrons
droop gracefully from neck or Whereabouts
to about the elbow. they are ready with
relieving compromises on the severe forms
of this fashion for women whose natural
outlines are not well suited to it. Already
many of these compromises are seen,

women, that they constitute hint that

The three most important results from cor
rect breathing are: the publication of the
blood; the production of animal heat, and
the curative powers resulting from the me-
chancal action of deep breathing by the
and muscles of the chest. AS the blood
circulates it gathers the poison of the body,
carbonic acid which is a combination of
oxygen and carbon; two elements found
in the body having a strong affinity for each
other. This poisonous waste, brought TO
the lungs by the blood, is quickly disspated
by increased oxygenation of the blood ny

persons who habitually practice deep
breathing. and take pains to obtain all
the fresh air possible every hour of the
day and night The common manner of
breathing may be divided in this way:
breathing from the upper part of the lungs,
culiar TO women, largely because the Gus
tom of wearing tight bands and corsets
makes 1t almost impossible for the lower
ribs TO expand. hence the upper chest
muscles do the work largely and, of course,
the lower air cells of the lungs suffer
In abdominal breathing the abdominal wall

downward while the chest remains almost

time and strength will permit, clad only
in a gown which hangs free from the
shoulders

Facts Women Should Know.
Harper's Bazaar.

Harpers Bazaar.
Every housekeeper should familarize her
self with the municipal ordinances of the
city or town i'm which she lives, certainly so
far as they relate to her small kingdom.
She is often ignorant of rights she may en-
force and privileges she may demand, while
on the other hand she may herself become
the offending party through the same ig
norance. II is against the law in New York,
for example, to have carpets beaten in the
small courtyardS in the rear of residences.
This was known to an uptown housekeeper,
but she thought rugs did not come under
the ban. When, however, a rug four yards
square was hung out and attacked by two
men, her neighborS promptly protested. She
then discovered that rug of that size Is
naturally rated as a carpet, and the COM
plants of those living near her were justi-
fled. Another woman, through ignorant
thoughtlessness, became involved in quite
serious trouble because she permitted lit
tie mattress, used in the crib in which her
child had lain through attack of scarlet
fever, to be burned in the rear houseyard

The Abused Neck.

Frances.-When we consider the modern
fashion of dressing the neck it is little
wonder that beautiful contour and fair
white skin is the exception rather than the
rule. Actresses, singers and society wom-
en- have the best examples of what wom-
ans neck should be: fair and firm, support
ing the head with grace. The great army
of professional and business women who
must present a neat, fashionable attire
during the long hours of the day are the
greatest sufferers from unshapely necks
The secret of the difference is simply this:
The class Of women first named spend
the most of their waking hours in dainty
gowns more or less open at the neck or
softly trimmed at that part of the garment
The accessories which go with the tailor
made gowns are worn by these women

proved failure, and deservedly so, for il

is found in the transparent. perforat ted

a townsite at Buford to consist

sufficient. Lounsberry, S. B..
