WHERE IS THE PERFECT WOMAN?"
WE'LL SHAPED
MUCH COVETED

Special Correspondence of The
Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.--At Madi-
son Square garden this week a
number of young women. represent
ing various states of the Union, are
contesting for points in perfect con-
tour arrayed in pink and black
union suits.
Artists, sculptors, physicians and
athletes are judges of this remark
able exposition.
The physical culture promoters
declare that there is no standard
upon which to base an estimate Of
beauty in the physical development
of women. The final judgment,
which will declare one superlative-
ly beautiful. will be based upon the
greatest number of points gained
from general measurements. The
standard will be gagged upon
height. A slim waist will not count
against too heavy hips or dispro-
portionate shoulder measurements.
There must be unity of beauty.
One Of the stars is Miss Alva Nc
Gill, who represents New York. She
is of the Venus Milo type. the ply
steal culturists say, and for her
height, five feet fiv inches, her
measurements are considered al
most perfect. They are: Neck, 1917
inches; elbow. 6A; wrist, 6A;
chest (expanded). 35A; chest (nor~
maD. "a; upper arm. liz; forearm,

1.-THE Leak That Mrs. Cooper Found"

After considerable coaxing on her
part. Mr.. Cooper gave up smoking
for two months. Then he had few
cigars someone had given him
downtown. Afterwards bunch of
some choice brand friend had de-
sired him to try, and finally a half
box was smuggled in quietly and
replaced at intervals. He wore
really shabby clothes through the
warm weather, but brought home
a varied assortment of white Mar
settles and fancy check suits for the
last three days of September. He
undertook self-shaving for while,
but soon gave mp in disgust He
talked a great deal about table
economy, inspected the ash heap, to
see that the cook threw away no
available lump Of coal and, in
short, was admirably saving for a
period.
