ART IN WEARING OF SASH
Height and Breadth Can Be Increased
or Toned Down by Drapins
of Sash.

There Ia great deal of art In the
wearing Of sash. One can increase
ones height or ones breadth, adorn a
plain gown, tone down an elaborate
one, give touch Of distinction to
ones whole appearance, simply by the
way in which the sash is draped and
adjusted.
Try wearing the sash In shawl
style over the shoulders, caught by a
stitch in back and tucked under the
girdle, to fall in diagonal lengths to
just above the ankles.
Or wind 1t twice around the waist.
like a girdle; cross it in front and
fasten with knot at the sides Of
the skirt below the knees.
Then there is the Scotch tartan ef-
feet especially attractive with a plaid
scarf. where there is broad band
over the left shoulder, narrow
draped one over the back and the
right, and knot at the waist on the
left side, SO that the sash falls in a
broad width almost to the bottom Of
the frock
The adjustment of the sash may
well have reference to the conceal
ment of some defect in the garment
1t covers--a tiny tear, perhaps, or an
ineradicable stain. It should empha-
size the good points Of the figure and
hide the bad. That IL why the old
fashion of the stiff bow at the back
was so bad; 1t made every woman
look stout.
Give little thought to the draping
OF your sash, and half your battle for
beauty Of appearance is won.

The report from Pisa that royal en-
gineers state that the inclination OF
the leaning tower at that place has in.
creased eight inches and that the
structure is likely to collapse will tend
to further increase the number of
those who believe that the tower was
never intended to be freak of ma
Sonry, but that it became a wonder by
the yielding Of its foundation on one
side. AS drawing card" for tour
lists the famous leaning tower has had
value in addition to the historic con.
siderations, and II it should fall there
would doubtless be a demand for its
reconstruction. A modern builder
could give Pisa a leaning tower OF
greater inclination by using an an

STEEL TRUST AS CAT BUYER

A rat got tangled up in one OF the
dynamos which supply power for the
great blast furnace mill Of the United
State Steel corporation at Gary, Ind,
says Louisville Courier-Journal. 1t re-
quired several hours to separate the
rats remains from the dynamo ana IN
the meantime the corporation was los
ing money at the rate OF thousand
dollars a minute. Now the steel trust
is advertising for cats. Advertisements
have been inserted In the Gary news
papers, offering so cents apiece, with
no limitations as to age, sex, size'
pedigree or character. Fifty cents
head is a good price for cats and the
officials OF the steel trust are likely to
have to contend with an embarrass-
nent of offerings. When the news per-
colates to all the cities and small
towns of Indiana there will be rush
of feline shipments to Gary and the
steel trust will find itself with sur
plus OF cats scarcely less troublesome
than the overplus of rats with which 1t
has been contending heretofore. Hun
dreds of Indiana families will willingly
part with all their feline possessions
at compensation of so cents per cat.
Some thousands of small boys will ex-
plore the alleys and woodsheds until
the last backyard fence Is denuded.
