The Wash WaisI

Again there is a tidal wave of popu
larity for the wasp waist. 1t will be
fashions model in the fall and winter.
For ten years the wasp waist has been
in retirement. The athletic girl scorn-
ed it as she took up her golf stick and
racket, and drew deep breaths. OF
course. physicians will be in ferment
and will warn womankind that the too
attenuated waist and malnutritiOn &C
hand in hand, but what of that? If
fashion DEGREES, no amount of suffer
ing will avail to stop it. Let US be
stylish or die seems to be the modern
motto, and the wonder is that so many
escape the latter alternative. Of
course. the wasp-waist girl of next
winter will not please those Of aes-
thetic eye, but it is always delicate
matter to criticise ones friend, so the
artistic woman will probably rival the
oyster in the art of keeping silent
Even if she should express her opln-
lon now and then, the wasp-Walsted
girl won't. believe a word OF It, for
wasp waists are so trim, don't you
know"

The National Income.

Much of the prosperity of the treas
ury must undoubtedly be ascribed to
the steadiness of the policy pursued
since 1896. If the country had had a
change of tariff every four years, or
even a series of attacks on the tariff,
during this period, as it had during the
preceding decade, the tables of income
would have made far less favorable
showing Business depends largely
upon settled conditions and freedom
from change. There are doubtless
iniquities in the present tariff that
need reforming-no tariff the country
has ever had was free from some in
justce-but these inequities affect
trade less on the whole than a shift
ing national policy that wobbles back
and forth between high protection and
free trade The amount of tariff taxa
ton is important, but not so important
as that this amount be kept as nearly
fixed as may be consistent with equal
ity and economy. By such a course
business men are enabled to know
what to depend on and to adjust their
contracts accordingly. This is fact
which the tariff reformers ignore in
their eagerness for lower rates and
their disregard of the disastrous effects
of sudden changes in schedules. If the
tariff is burden on enterprise, as they
declare, it is far less injurious than a
policy of frequent and radical change

women sbouId ne Pra,.


Do you know that it is the habits and
not the fight Of years that take the
expression of youth from the eyes, the
look Of freshness from the skin. the
lghtness Of grace from the step?
Too many women who are pretty in
girlhood become positively ugly in mid
die age. Those who are shapeless with
fat and have muddy compilations are
often thus unlovely because of Iaziness
and self-indulgence. They eat the rich
and sweet things which make flesh and
do not take sufficient exercise.
The odd thing about it is that while
women deplore the loss of beauty, no
persuasion will make them adopt the
Spartan methods which will bring at
least some of it back, says Woman's
Life.
AS for the thin, nervous women who
have lost the delicate, round, pink and
white outlines of youth in sallowness
and scragginess, they are no more
amenable to reason and common sense.
A daily bath in tepid water, plenty of
nourishing food judiciously chosen. and
a resolute avoidance of the twin tends.
hurry and worry, mean a new rosiness
in the cheek, a soften contour in the
figure, new enjoyment of life.

Snow to the depth of two inches fell

reported four inches of snow, a VERT
able winter storm and the snowfall was
heavy and general all over northern
Indiana. in some places attaining al
most the proportions of blizzard.
Michigan City recorded two and a half
inches, and the oldest inhabitant said
he had never known such October
weather since 1912. Pittsburg expert
enced the earliest snow storm since

The Presidents Speech.

President RoOsevelt's speech at Har-
risburg, Pa, was remarkable for the
amount of homely advice it contained
for the average American.
The keynote of it all was the injunc-
ton not to let the government degen-
crate into a government of the mob,
nor yet into a government of plutoc-
racy, but to maintain it as govern
ment of the plain people, where each
man jealousy guards his own rights
and no less scrupulously regards the
rights of others; government whose
guiding principle is that every man is
to be judged solely on his merit as a
man"
That counsel is especially wholesome
just now, when in various parts Of the
country we see dangerous demagogues
attempting to infame ignorance into
passion and to upset if not to over
throw the government that has served
us hitherto. 1t is no doubt true that
their appeals have found listening ears,
but we have confidence that they are
not many. 1t is well, however, that
such sound doctrine as the President
uttered should be put forth, that the
people may be reminded of their duties
and their privileges.
"Of all men," says the President,
''distrust most the man who tries to
set one set of Americans against an
other" Let this be remembered when
attempts are made to rouse class feel
ing in this country.-Chicago Journal.

On an at-home day, when many are
present, a hostess is not required to
make introductions between her guests
unless she wishes to do so; but when
the callers number but one or two only
it is incumbent upon her to introduce
them to each other. At a large lunch
con party the numbers regulate whether
or no general introductions are to be
made. 1t is not possible to introduce

Unless a dining room be finished in
Gothic style, with massive sideboards
to match, there is no reason for buy
ing high-backed dining room chairs.
The present way of serving by having
things passed at the left while the
plate is withdrawn from the right is
unhandy enough for both servant and
person at table, without high-backed
chair to provide additional chances for
trouble. People do not lean back at
formal dinners, and low-backed chairs
that do not reach the shoulder are cor
rect.
In the simple home the prestige of
larger chairs may be given to the father
and mother at table, while if there be
an invalid or aged person the stay at
table should be made as comfortable as
is possible by the use Of cushions and
shoulder rests.
