SKIRTLESS BATHING SUITS
 LATEST FASHION CREATION
Women Can Now Have Almost Much Freedom of Move
 ment When Swimming as Men-Smart and Decorous

M HANY people labor under the MI erroneous impression that ir WI order to bathe in comfort one A should bundle up in all man ner of swaddling clothes, thus mak. ing themselves not only very uncom fortable but most unattractive.
 What is more desolate and forlorn looking than a woman swathed in a shapeless, clinging mass of sodden heavy flannel which, even when dry,
 cumbersome enough, and the min 4se it becomes wet weighs one down like lead.
 These bathing creations are not only bewitchingly pretty but most utilitarian. They are designed espe- cially to fill the requirements of American women who have a passion for the water and are adopts in more ways than one where water sports en- ter into consideration. They devote much time and thought to thA build , ing of costumes which combine all the good points of utility with those of contour, allowing perfect freedom and play of the limbs and muscles
 Discreet petticoats will always be in demand no doubt for that large class of persons who can neither swim nor dive and who would die of fright were they even so much as to dip their toes in the sea. These vast multitudes will doubtless continue to wander up and down the already over crowded beaches in these flying skirts, confident that they are fmpressing all on-lookers with their sportive appear ance and trying to create the assump- tion that they are just about to plunge in with few Swedish high-dives.
 For the Bathing Club.
 These. same would-be dignified per- sonages of uncertain age would doubt less be scandalized beyond all recon ciliation when they learn that these so called immodest models are de signed for the private natatorium. Now that women have begun to have bathing clubs, especially through the winter months, they have come to the very sensible conclusion that one might just as we'll be comfortable and pretty at one and the same time as b be ugly and feel forlorn. What could be more attractive than these little skirtles and more practical than the shapely knickerbockers with their applique and braiding. Some wonder fully pretty ones were seen in the baths at Trouvflle.
 Suit of Cretonne.
 One was of fascinatingly pretty cretonne, and while it may seem ex- tremely incogruous, it is much warm CT than silk and quite inexpensive, it's wearing quality far outdoing that of silk. A green and white plaid bath ing dress, or rather trousers, startling though it sounds, is actually such a combination and is decidedly chic. Picture to yourself a vast expanse of blue grey ocean and silhoutte the green and white plaid against 1t and

Everyone Hates a Traitor.

Because of his former record as
a Democrat and his protestations
that he would be till he died. the
good people of Boyd county elect
ed f. w. Lillard to the Legisla-
ture pledged to support Democrat
ic nominees and measures.
Instead of voting for Governor
Beckham. who was the party's
nominee for United States Senator,
Mr.. Lillard voted for another
man until the time came when his
vote would elect Governor W. O.
Bradley and then he promptly
gave it ID him. There were
rumors and charges of corrupt
deal. but they were never substan-
tiated by legal proof. For his
traitorous conduct Mr.. Lillard was
almost ostracised by his former
friends in Danville and his fine
drug business went to pieces. Peo-
pie were beginning to forget him
and his treachery and they might
in time have been forgotten or re-
membered only in sorrow, till the
announcement was made by the
Danville Advocate recently that
Senator Bradley who owes his
election to the falsity of Lillard to
his trust. had appointed him his
private Secretary.
The accidental holder of the
Office of United States Senator
shows a commendable spirit in re-
warding his friends. but the very
act in this instance will arouse
public Indignation and increase the
contempt which every honest Dem
ocrat feels for a man who delber-
ately betrays his party, and then
accepts an Office in payment of his
treachery. Lexington Herald.
Col. Lillard is not the only man
who has termed himself a Demo-
crat and then voted for a Repub-
lican, thereby proving himself a
traitor to Democracy and one not
worthy of being trusted. The
man that won't stand for his prin-
ciples is worse than the man who
hasn't any principle at all.

OTTO knOERzER TYPE
or PUBLIC SPIRITED MAN
Makes Valuable Improve
ments and Beauties Land
Around Plant.

Otto Knoerzer is one of the most
public spirited citizens in Hammond
and his public spiritedness is shown
conclusively in the efforts he has been
making to improve the north side in
the vicinity of his plant. the Champion
Potato Machinery company.
Knoerzer has purchased a large
number OF lots and has moved the
houses off from them so that he could
have little park in front of his plant.
1t is estimated that it has cost
Knoerzer at least $4,000 alone merely
in the work of identifying the sur
roundings of his plant II the plant
was located in a choice residential
district this expenditure of money
might be explained, but for q man to
attempt to deliberately change the en-
vironment of his plant is hard to I'M
derstand
But Knoerzer figures that his men
will be more contented. tbs neigh
| bors will feel that he is trying to do
something for them and that the good
| feeling all around will alone be worth
| the money. It is pointed out that II
| other manufacturers took this view
| even the manufacturing district would
| be beautiful.

BUSINESS NOT EXPECTED
To INCREASE TILL NOV.
Uncertainty About Election
Causes Halt in Indust-
rial Conditions.

w Thomas of the Simplex Railway
Appliance company stated today that
now new orders have been received
lately. He said that he did not look
for business to pick up until late this
fall.
He stated that business conditions
are very unsettled a. result of the
Roosevelt speeches that have been
made over the country The European
investors are afraid of American in
vestments owing to the agitation that
has been carried on
There is an air of uncertainty about
the business situation that makes it
impossible for the big corporations to
float their bonds and the railroads have
decided on a policy of retrenchment
that prevents the carrying out of new
projects.

The Vegetable Cellar.

Pay particular attention to the cool
cellar for vegetables. Build it on the
shady side. in the coolest corner. and
provide it with an outside window for
ventilation. If you wish to have your
vegetables keep the longest possible
time. remove the potatoes, cabages,
turnips. and the like from the crates
or barrels, and spread them out in
racks or bins, provided for the purpose.
Do not keep your preserves in the or
binary cool cellar. Build a separate
closet for them. in dark cool corner
without outside light. Use artificial
light instead, as the strong light from
out-of doors will spoil the preserves.
