THE LATEST IN CORSETS.
Fashionable Women Refuse to SUBJ
NIT to q Change in the
Waist Line.

Dame Fashion and the world feminine
are at logerheads.
Subject of dispute-corsets, says the
Washington Star.
Madame La Mode has decreed the
small waist and the broad shoulder. Her
humblest slave has returned like the
proyerbial worm and thus discourses:
You may pad my shoulders and
sharpen the point on my basque or
girdle, but keep your hands off my
waist line. For, 10! these many years
have | been struggling to attain
straight front and now that have be-
come amenable to well-fitted corsets-
and reason-you demand that draw
my waist line into a yasp-like diam
eter and thus increase the apparent size
OF my abdomen. Go hence, Madame La
Mode. for know that | have attained
the distinction of a perfectly hygienic
figure and one good to look upon.
will not be distorted"
And that is why the most exclusive
corsetieres offer not single new
curve In the fashioning of stays.
ITS no use" sighed one importer,
I'VE have tried to force the new waist
line on fashionable women, but they
refuse to change. 1t would mean much
for us, II the feminine figure could be
altered from the straight-front effects
now in vogue to the old-fashioned
small-waisted, highbusted lines and
curves. Everyone in our line would
make money, as the change would be
so radical that old stays would have to
be thrown away. But for once the
American woman stands pat She knows
what she wants in stays and she will
not yield an inch. AS a result, mo-
distes must do the figuring. They must
build gowns to simulate small waists,
broad shoulders and high busts. But
the corsets-alas, nO-they will not
change"
But this is no sign that the American
woman is not willing to spend a small
fortune on corsets-if she has 1t to
spend The new designs displayed at
the importing houses and in the parlors
Of the exclusive corsetieres show to
what lengths of extravaganza she will
go. Broacaded silks and heavy satins,
embroidered by hand, are used in build
ing the stays of the moment. A white
ground showing raised flowers in POM
psdour designs is popular; and, with
the corset, comes corset bag and
sachet to match. The former looks not
unlike the silk bag for carrying Slip
pers and fan TO dancing parties, and has
a cord and tassel finish, by which it Is
hung in the wardrobe. The new cor
set sachets show two hearts, connected
by bow OF ribbon, and edged with fine
lace. The material is in plain color to
match the stays, and tiny .cuplds or
pompadour wreaths are painted or EN-
broidered by hand.
For slender girl, luxurious yet in
expensive corset is built from heavy rib
bon, woven in lattice pattern. This
Is not first cousin to the ribbon girdIe
but is woven close and firm. The
sachets to match are also ribbons, cries.

ADMIRAL TOGO KNOWS MEN
The Famous Japanese Sea Fighter
uses His Subordinates Like
His Own Fingers"

The world knows Admiral Togo as
man Of the sword, pure and simple.
Inc world, as often, is mistaken He
is something greater than a fighter; as
a judge of men, he ranks much higher
than as soldier His men never cease
to marvel at the ease with which he ac-
complishes the most difficult tasks OF a
commander, and at the rarity OF mis-
takes that he makes in the choice of his
subordinates, says the Detroit Free
Press. There is saying among the men
OF the Nippon navy that runs something
like this:
There is only one commander who
uses his subordinates like his own fin
gers, and the name of that man is
Admiral Togo"
The old-time ideal of the sammurai
was the wedding of the soldier and the
scholar In one; and Admiral Togo is not
false to the ideal; he Is a student as well
as fighter.
Il am no scholar" he is reported to
have said. From my early youth. how
ever, my masters have compelled me to
N"e"ihC anu ioiiOW carefully the teacQ.
ings OF the school of Yomei. It seems to
me that soldier can derive a great deal
OF benefit from the study OF Yomei"
The admiral is certainly not the first
or the only soldier OF Nippon who has
acknowledged his debt to the teachings
OF the Chinese philosopher whom our
people know under the name of Yomei.
The school Of Yomei emphasizes per-
feet poise Of the soul. The students OF
Yomei value, more than anything else.
the quiet balance OF nerve, the eauiii-
brium which cannot he disturbed by n
little thing like bursting shell within
few feet OF man or a sword CLEAN a
few inches before the eyes. The first
lesson that master of sword or a mas
ter OF jiu jitsu tries to instil into the
mind OF samurai youth is the impor-
tance of attaining coolness of nerve AND
perfect poise of the soul. In the ewes of
the Nippon fighting men these qualities
are much more important than the clever
handling OF sword or gun.

THE ART OF "MOTHERlNC"
Acquired More Thoroughly by the
Mothers Who Reside in the
Country.

"How's your mother, Carrier" asked
q friend of 12-year-old city girl whose
mother was a well-known worker in
various organizations for social better
ment.
II haven't seen mother for 10 days"
replied Carrie. ''She isn't up when 20
10 school, and she doesn't come home
till after I'm in bed at night; but !
guess she's all right"
Evidently there is something WRONG
in that household, says Youths Com
panion. Miss McCracken, in her recent
article on The Woman on the Farm"
puts her finger on the evil. She points
out an important advantage which the
country child has over the city child.
Schools may not be so long or so good
in the country, and opportunities for
books and music and pictures may be
Few and far between. But mothers in the
country are mothers, indeed
You see" says the little girl from
the farm, "I've seen my mother almost
the whole time ever since was born.
] almost always could do everything
that she did and go everywhere she
Went Ii was so unusual when couldn't

places and does too many things that
she says--aren't for children, and il
takes her so much time to do them that

There is the problem sharply stated.
Its solution is not so easy but ii Is GER
tain that there is no public service
which woman can render so yitaIly
important TO the future OF the race as
Just this very "mothering." Only in
the sort Of love which penetrates the
whole life OF the family, and makes II
sweet and sound and loyal, can be found
the remedy for the social and domestic
unrest which is more dangerous to our
country than foreign fleets or political
dissensions.

WHOLESALERS
Members of the California
Viticultural Club Talk
of the Wine Situation

During the sessions Of the California.
Viticultura1 Club now being. held in
the lecture hall Of the Mechanics. LII
brary a scheme may be evolved that
will increase the consumption. Of Cali
fornia wines and enrich the State. II
is the opinion of the members of. the
club that grasUing, near-sighted
wholesalers Cor middlenien, as they are
called are doing more to injHre the
wine industry Of the State than all the
pests known to science. ~,
At yesterdays session OF the club,
after various papers of scientific in
terest had been read, the question or
the middleman was taken: qp. 1t was
pointed out that wines from which the
grower should be paid at least 30 cents
a gallon for were being sold, through
necessity to the middleman for from
Is to 20 cents a gallon. Growers, it
was also said, were glad to get SIS a
ton for grapes, when twice that figure
should prevail. ~....
Notwithstanding these low prices the
consumers are compelled to pay great
prices for their wtneS-not because the
retailers demand excessive profit, but
tent to reduce the margin Of their gain.
1t is to work their undoing that the
club is striving, and when this is aC-
complished another plan further to in
crease the consumption OF. California
wines is purposed.
An effort viii be made to secure from
the authorities the right to open, free
from license, resorts where. California
wines alone are sold. Statistics were
quoted showing that in wine drinking
countries drunkenness is hardly
known. 1t is the LIQUOR traffic 1t was
asserted, that debased men. Places
where pure wine was sold exclusively
would benefit the people as a whole.
Reference was made to the low fiRurs
at which these. wines could be sold al
a profit.
The question will be further dis
cussed at tO-day's sessions.

CANNON ROAR
AT ATASCADERO
Artillery Tests Show That
Ammunition Furnished Is
Practically Without Flaw

The first half Of the artillery prac-
tice at Camp Atascadero was finished
yesterday, $50 shells in all having been
fired. OF these there was only one
which failed to explode, and the am
munition test is considered complate.
Three light batteries of artillery from
the Preside have been engaged IN the
practice, and a German moving spool
target has been used. This is somewhat
of an innovation in artillery practice
on the Pacific Coast, this being the
first one to be put in use.
Major Brown, commanding artillery,
stated that the second half Of the prac-
tice would be over before the rest of the
regulars arrive. The artillery has gone
before the rest of the soldiers simply
for the purpose Of having a free hand
for their practice.
The Engineering Corps Of the army
have been a hard worked body during
the past week, but their efforts in one
line are now complete and they are
lying back on their oars. The main
feat to be encompassed was the laying
of water pipes throughout the camp,
in order that the soldiers might be pro-
vided with fresh water.
There are two springs on the Rancho
del Encinal and these have been util-
lied as reservoirs. A line Of water
pipes runs through the entire drill and
parade ground, and cisterns have been
placed at regular intervals, so that
each company will be provided with a
cistern. A number of zinc tanks have
been purchased and will be scattered
throughout the ranch, in order that
the soldiers will be able to fill their
canteens.
Adjutant General ]. B. Loucks,
N. c.. c., is in daily receipt Of letters
from militiamen to the effect that they
will be unable to join their regiments.
owing TO the refusal of employers to
give them leave. Other guardsmen
cannot afford to lose two weeks salary.
This state Of affairs will make the at
tendance of the militia regiments
smaller than was expected.
