DRESSING FOR THE BACK.
A Lesson From the Dainty and Artis-
tic FrenchwOman's Book.

Lesson From the Dainty and Artis-
tic FrenchwOman's Book.
The Frenchwoman-for she must be
considered as a class dress peculiarly
and different from any woman in the
world. She dresses for the back She
takes care to dress well, considered
from a front point of view But she
dresses with special regard for those
who shall see her from the rear.
She takes great pride in her shoulder
blades. Let them get fat, and you are
lost,' she says. And so it is. LET
your shoulder blades become STOPPING,
and you are ruined" she declares. LET
your shoulder blades get sharp, and
none of your gowns will fit you. Let
your shoulder blades grow ungraceful,
and you might as well give up the
beauty quest
When it comes to the display Of her
back and neck and arms the French
woman excels. She shrugs with them
She says yes and no. She expresses sur
prise, joy, disdain and sorrow, all by
the gestures of her back and arms. She
laces her waist so tight that it seems
as though she would break in two But
her bust is free and her breathing space
is full. She would not think of cramp-
ing her lungs.
'Merciv' exclaimed a Frenchwoman
putting on an American bodice II can
not breathe. The belt is like a bag. 1t
is so lose that am uncomfortable
while it is tight around the bust and
around the throat"
And that is one Of the Frenchwom-
ans secrets. She gives her throat plen-
ty Of room, and she gives her bust a
chance to expand But her waist, on
the other hand, is tightly laced. She
takes care, however, to pull the laces
tight below the ribs and below the lung
space and below the bust line in order
that the beautiful upper figure may
have plenty Of room in which to
breathe and expand and be graceful

Municipal Housekeeping.

You may not know enough to advise
our statesmen about the tariff, and as
none Of them seems to understand the
matter it is very possibly too deep for
any Of the present generation, says a
writer in Harper's Bazaar. But the care
Of the streets, the construction of the
school buildings and much concerning
the conduct Of the schools themselves,
the disposition Of garbage and ashes,
the position and maintenance near
towns of nuisances like abattoirs, soap
factories and chemical works, which
many times cause great discomfort and
even epidemics before maddened pub
lie opinion roots them out and puts
them where they ought to be-all these
matters are a part of the government
as much as the currency and the tariff
and the foreign policy. All these affairs
come under the head of municipal
housekeeping, and woman should feel
as responsible for their conduct as men.

Congressman Cooper Seeks a
Large Appropriation for a
Public Building.
COMMITTEE CUTS FIGURES.
1t is Believed, However, That the
City Will Receive Nearly the Entire
Amount Asked for When Build
ing Appropriation is Make.

A dispatch from Washington states
that the committee in charge of the
budget for public buildings during the
coming year has been asked to make
an appropriation of $4,000 for the
building at Kenosha. The demand
for the appropriation for this city
was made by Congressman Cooper.
In his demand the congressman asked
that the sum of $4,000 be appropria-
ted for the purchase of site and that
an added sum Of $4,000 be added for
the erection of the building.
In taking up the matter the COM
mittee decided that there could be no
buildings built this year and that the
only appropriation that would be pos
sib1e would be an appropriation for
the purchase of a site. This appro-
priation was made but before the Ke-
nosha building site was included S.
600 was Topped off the amount which
had been asked for by Congressman
Cooper.
1t is thought that as soon as the
site is secured the committee will
recommend an appropriation for the
building and it is said that there is an
agreement between the congressman
from Wisconsin that the amount to be
recommended for Kenosha will be
SIS, 900.
Kenosha has waited long time for
a public building and her original
request from the government was, but
$40, 900. This demand was made more
than five years ago and since that
time the demands of the Kenosha
business of the government have
grown at such rapid rate that build
ing costing $4,000 would not in any
way be suitable to the demands. For
this reason the amount asked for has
been increased to $4,000. If this
amount is appropriated Kenosha
would have as fine public building as
is to be found in this section of the
state.
This appropriation for a site will be
available about April 1, and already
people having property to sell have
begun to communicate with the COM
mittee in charge of the purchase of
sites for public buildings. There are
number of sites which would be ac-
ceptab1e to the government but it is
feared that they cannot be secured
for the amount appropriated.
