GERMAN DRESS REFORM.
So Well Established It Has Large Following
of Women Artists as Designers.

German reform dress for women has been at
tracing the attention OF the world for years
and has reached a quite incredible degree OF pop
ularits. The reform dress is met at every turn
in Germany, theatres and concerts. IN society.
and In the streets. German town will scarcely

with Mrs. Oppler-Legbaud who is a we'll known
artist, in charge.
The reform dress movement IN Germany has
gone through two distinct stages. The first at
tempts were made along hygienic lines only. Sew
eral societies for the promotion Of the desired
form were formed in the nineties and number OF
prominent physicians Joined tire movement. The
results were no. satisfactory owing 10 the lack OF
consideration for beauty and many friends were
lost to the cause. Then the artists came to the
rescue and the movement took new lease CT
life.
As one OF those whose work contributed 70 this
end Mrs Opp1er-Legbaud says that she has aimed
to effect a sensible compromise between fashion
reform and the hygenic practical requirements
of the sex. THIS she found to be difficult task,
owing to the absence Of traditions to build upon

but dress refornlers must begin at the foundation
They are also hampered by the lack OF dress
makers able to compete with the conventional ar
fists Yet all these difficulties have been suf-
ecient1v overcome to make the reform dress popu-
lar.
MEN and women formerly opposed to
form movement are gladly learning. says Mrs.
Oppler-Legbaud Ito appreciate the female form
as nature has fashioned it. and are beginning TO
comprehend that the natural lines of nature evil
denced in the reform dress as opposed TO the
deformng corsets form the very basic conditions
OF dress reform. To attain this happy aim when
the eye rests and feasts with unalloyed delights
on the soft and yielding form OF the female body
and its beautiful and untrammeed mobility is our
hope. ..

tration. The Democratic leaders have agreed to
indorse any man whom the Republican con-
vention dominates. Thus the three cornered
fight will be eliminated
The registration has been very heavy, and
prospects that larger vote will be cast
than for many years. Frank A. Maestretu, head
of the Board of Public Works has been removed
from Office because of surety company refus-
ing TO guarantee his bonds. The Aetna In
demnity Company last year went Maestrettfs
bond, after another company had withdrawn On
August the Aetna gave notice that it would
withdraw. as 1t feared suits against Maestretti.
In ten days Maestretti should have furnished
a new bond This he failed to do. and to pro-
tect himself secured injunction to prevent
the Mayor and Auditor from releasing the surety
company or declaring his office vacant Judge
Seawell has decided that the surety company
has the right to withdraw from the bond and
the Auditor has declared that Maestretti's Office
is vacant. Mayor Schmtz, however, is loyal TO
his henchman who did so much to secure his
election, and promptly reappointed Maestretti
The Mayor holds that Maestretti is in the
position of new appointee who has not vet
secured his bonds, and that he has ten DAYS in
which to do this The Mayors action has ex-
cited much adverse comment and it will GER
tainly be used by Republicans in the coming
campaign as another reason why Schmtz should
not be reelected

Starkweather Times: On last

night and called for the agent
The section foreman got up and
told them that the agent was at

this was refused by both the

had then got up, one Of the men

Canine Escapes from VestibuIe of
Street Car

An eastern lady who had been visit
ing in Rock Island boarded a street car
yesterday afternoon for the Rock Is
land depot. In addition TO numerous
packages and pieces of baggage. she
had a valuable high bred dog. The
conductor refused to allow the dog in
side the car. and it was placed on the
front platform. On the way to the de-
pot il became frightened. and jumped
from the car. making its exit under the
vesubute door. The lady did not dis
cover her loss until the depot was
reached, and then no information could
be given as to where the dog left the
car As she valued the animal ar 500
she was very much excited over the af-
fair. and denounced the company. its
rules. and the employees who had en-
forced them. in strong terms.

TO WEAK WOMEN
OF Rock Island and Vicinity, We Make
the Following Proposition.

There are hundreds of women in
this vicinity who are dragging them
selves through life in pain and misery,
without Vitality, strength or health,
said Mr.. Rolls. They get no happi-
ness out of life and are just in condi-
tion to be attacked by almost any dis
ease They need a matchmaking and
strengthening tonic.
Now at our expense we want TO ask
every such woman in Rock Island TO
try our cod liver oil preparation. Vinol,
which contains in highly concentra-
ted form all of the medicinal elements
of cod liver oil but no oil or grease.
IT is delicious TO take, creates healthy
appetite, makes pure, rich, red blood
and gives strength and vigor 10 every
organ of the body better than any
medicine we have ever sold in our
store, and when woman is in poor
condition IL makes life worth living.
When We say at our expense we
mean that if the medicine YOU buy
from us and pay for does not benefit
you, we will refund every cent paid
us for it
Miss Mary A. Woodward says: II
think Vinol is the best remedy in the
world for a weak, tired. worn-out sys-
tenn. was just in that condition
when | commenced 10 take Vinol II
gave me new life and energy. I feel
well. strong and better than L have for
years"
