Correct Corsets.

Nothing can be more absurd than
to see, as one constantly does, a short,
stout woman, who by the aid Of
straight fronted corsets, has succeed
ed in so lengthening her waist line as
to get it apparently just midway be-
tween her toes and her shoulders. To
begin with this really is not good
style, as the tendency Of the moment
rather is towards the high wasted
effect Of the empire. AT The same time,
this is a season of large liberty in
ones choice in dress, and well balanc-
ed figure-tall and slim, and yet well
rounded, being favorably suited by a
long WASTED effect-can and wisely
does secure that end. The short, stout
woman should strive to establish a
proper proportion between the upper
and lower parts Of her figure. She
should not allow her things to be
made too tight, nor her small stature
to be oyerpowered by large hat

FINISH FOR GIRLS FRocK.
Use of Messaline Ribbon Gives Very
Pretty Effect.

A charming way to finish the skirt
Of a white lace or net frock for a
young girl is to turn four or five
inch hem, and through this run wide
messaline ribbon of the same width.
In this way the skirt is sufficiently
weighted and the CLEAN of the ribbon
through the lace gives a prettier effect
than if the solid bands Of satin were
used.
If the skirt is a gored model, this
device will not be feasible, as the rib
bons could scarcely be satisfactorily
shaped
But for a gathered skirt, or one I'm
ished with a straight fiounce, it gives
an admirable finish.
If inch-deep crosswise tucks are
used on the skirt, run these through
also with the satin ribbon Of the same
width.
Pompadour ribbon could be COM
bined with white or pale pastel tinted
nets

given In this department lately. The
Somerset is a consolidation of two other
companies. whose properties are of in
different value. and very little work Is
being lone on them. The reason for the
merger of the two stocks into one COM
pany of an entirely different name. has
never been satisfactorily explained, but
the captains OF high finance who are
the fiscal agents for the concern prob
ably want another chance to twist the
dear public.

lively in a short time. The Manhattan
Homestake property is not being worked
and 1t is unlikely that any more work
will be done as the showing made will
hardly justify the expenditure of any
more money.

Girls Garry Around Images Supposed

The daughter OF the Russian ambas-
sador to this country confided to ons
OF her Washington friends not long ago
that she was wearning around her nech
a little image of st. Nicholas, who Is
supposed to guarantee to the unmar.
ried love affair that will not only run
smoothly but will also come up to the
rosiest anticipations that she even
pictured to her own mind. viva. ..
The friend to whom she told OF the
charm was having most unfortunate
time with her own heart, and she de-
cided to procure one OF the tiny saints
to help her out. No sooner had she
hung the little charm around her neck
than things began to come her way
The dallying lover was brought to
time and all of his own accord. He
began to shower her with devotion,
where before he had been, most indif-
ferent. The astounding change could
be attributed to nothing else than the
tiny loadstone. She found 1t impos-
sible to keep the story OF her good
fortune to herself any longer and con-
fided in a few Of her most intimate
friends. Now half the girls in Wash
ington have hanging around their
necks a miniature figure OF the little
old saint. .- ..
There was time when st. Joseph
was believed to be the one who
brought the husbands warranted to
wear, but for some reason he lost ia
vor and the jolly fat little Saint Mich
olas was installed in his place.
