Chance Of the Rasaus.

We are surely to have basques again.
They are being offered now in some
of the new models for fall.
Whether they will succeed or not
remains 20 be seen.
Those exhibited so FAR have little in
common, except tightness. with the
pointed basques of their last incarna-
tion.
They are -close-htting bodices which
hug the figure down to a straight
around line below the hips
onto this the skirt is plated in close
plaits
II is a decidedly trying style for any
save a perfect figure.
All deficiencies Of line are revealed
and the figure given a "squatty" look.
While the basque is tight-fitting, IL
Is not necessarily plain.
On one model of plum-colored satin,
sets Of cross-wise tucks are run around
the figure above the waist and below
it, at the bottom set side by side with
the lengthwise plaits of the skirt.
Such skirts are short; that is, there
Is no sweep.

out that the high tax now levied on
the coiored variety has seriously Grip
pied the industry. II is pointed out
that fiat tax of cents might SO in
crease the manufacture of the article
that considerable revenue would accrue
20 the Government from its coliec-
ton.
The change will undoubtedly be
/ fought to the last by the butter inter-
ests OF New Jersey and tho Middle
West. and i'm general by persons of Or.
Harvey w Wileys persuasion in re-
gard to pure food. To meet some Of
these objections Mr.. MacVeagh's plan

MISSIONARY TO CHINA
ADDRESSES Y. ". c. A.

Miss Clara Fighter, a missionary
from China. spoke at the vesper SER
vice Of the Y. w. G. A. yesterday af-
ternoOn.
Miss Fighter told of conditions and
civilization in China as compared with
our own. She also spoke of the in
vasion of China by the Occidentals and
the carrying of new ideas to them.
The sneaker said that in some villages
nine-tenths of the people use opium
i'm some form. This makes a new bur-
den and is a vice which will not easily
be stamped out. 1t is mainly due to
the suspicion thus engendered that
Christianity is difficult to teach there.
Miss Fighter said. Miss RICHTER Will
go to Boston tomorrow and later Will
sail for China to resume her work.
