NEW YORK, April 22.-Speculative
operators in stocks started the day in
so gloomy a frame of mind over the
commercial and financial prospects
that some excess was to be looked for
in the steps taken to express that
view, the late demand to cover shorts
being the consequence The sentiment
was due to the cumulative effect of
various reactions at work for several
days and to which was added the news
over night that a reorganization was
necessary of the old and prominen.
Taft Weller Dry Goods company.
The strong influence on speculative
sentiment was due to the Watohful
spirit which has been aroused by the
admitted difficulties in the affairs OF
the market pool in cotton.
Liquidation in United states Steel
shares and lack of effective support
for them made an effective factor in
forming the impression of reaction.
Unsatisfactory views Of the copper
trade position enhanced it.
1t is noticeable that discussion of
probable new capital issues, which
concerned itself exclusively with the
possibility of enlisting new capita a
short time ago now considers chances
for retrenchment of needed outlay for
new facilities. The Wall streer stock
operator Is keeping one eye OH the Lon
don money market and was obserNant
of the steadier tone of rubber shares
there, promising a postpOnement of the
dreaded collapse in that highly mcr-
curial speculation.
Gold was engaged for shipment to
London next week without lowering
the foreign exchange rate. Continued
inflow of currency from the interior
during the week some further con-
tribution to bank cash from the sub
treasury operations and the Indifferent
demand for money is allowing inter-
est rates to recede in spite of the de-
pletion by gold exports.

The Seasons Belts.

Stout women who wish to disguise the
fact that they are too plump for SYM
metry should avoid break at the waist
line by having their gowns made in one
piece styles.
Still such designs are not always desir-
able for two-piece dresses may be more
practicable for morning wear. But when
dressing in a separate waist and skirt
costume nlatronS who are feshy should
realize that belts increase or decrease the
should select girdles that will make them
seem less large.
Few women need to be told that a light
belt worn over a dark gown will appar-
entity increase the size of the waist by
several inches; or that wide belt should
not be worn by a stout-waisted person.
There are also a number of minor points
to be remembered when choosing a belt.
For example, it is understood that all
stout matrons are not fashioned on the
same lines. There are tall, stout women
and short, stout ones, those who are long
wasted and those with short waists. also
women who are stout but small in proper
ton al the waist line, and others who may
be unduly large at the waist line. OBJ
viously, then, one particular style of belt
will not suit every woman who happens
to be stout

regard to the figure.
One law which will apply to all stout
women is that the belt shall be narrow.
A second, equally important rule. Is that
it shall match in color the dress, Of which
it forms a part. If the girdle can be of the
same material, so much the better, but it
is imperative that it be the same color If
satisfactory results are desired.
When separate skirt and waist form the
toilet, then the color of the belt must be
determined by the length of the waist. II
a woman is short wasted. the belt should
match the waist worn, because this will
give an extra inch in waist length. III.
however. the wearer is long wasted, the
belt should correspond to the color of the
skirt, and thus bring the figure into bet
ter proportions.
When the length above the waist line is
greater in proportion than 1t Is from that
point downward person will appear
shorter than she really is. This Is some
thing to be avoided. because stout fig
ure needs every fraction of height
A dip 10 the belt in front-a style liked
by many stout women-is now seldom
seen. Only a few are still loyal to it.
The rounder line is. of course. more

youthful looking. but there are some
women on whom the straight around
waist line does not look attractive. In
this class are those who are inclined to
be long in the back in proportion to the
front.
There are. of course, ways Of obviating
this without resorting to the dip. For in
stance, when a narrow belt is to be cut
an inch or more wide, cut a strip o.
paper that will slant from the center
back to the same point in front and lay
the upper edge close to the natural waist
line.
Supposing the strip has been fttes to
the right side. remove and replace on the
left side, first turning the strip upside
down 1t will then fit snugly into the
waist line Before. the belt would have
given spread effect to the figure. De-
spite this simple corrective, hundreds OF
women adopt the unbecoming arrange
ment.
A belt could be cut at first to fit up
wards as described, but amateurs will
find 1t easier to plan according to direc-
tons given They will also have an op-
portunity of viewing both effects and
VIII not fail to see the difference. With
the spreading" belt the waist will ap-
pear to be at least three inches larger
than when fitted with the belt placed in
the opposite direction.
Another style of belt that is becoming
10 all stout figures when something lit
tie more dressy than a narrow straight
oeit Is desired is narrow crushed
girdle. 1t is made from a strip four to
five inches wide, according to material.
If sheer goods is used the latter width
is shiTred in center back and sewed in
vislbly to strip of featherbone two
inches long. Under the arms the shirrinp
is repeated and sewed to boning measur-
ing one and one-half inches in length.
At the front closing the belt must be
shirred again to one inch strips Of bone
The shirring on the end at the right
ar writ hoo ~
hooks and eyes make the closing
This style of belt also suggests the
dip. is straight all around the waist
For general wear there is nothing bet
| ter for stout women than elastic belts
and as these can be bought in every
color and at so little cost 1t is possible ia
have one to match each gown

Fat women must take this injunction to heart
IL they want to be in style. for the new modes
will not drape over a fat fgure
The fat has got to come of quickly, but with
out harm OF course. and this means only one
thing can be depended upon. Exercising and diet
ing are too slow. The fat woman who wants to
wear a form-clinging gown must make an imme-
diate trim to her druggist and get a case OF
Marmola Prescription Tablets. which will cost
her about Is cents.
Taking one Of these after each meal and at
bedtime should be enough to bring her to the
..losIns.a pounds day stage before even the
f,rst case ia used up 1t is hardly believabe that
such delightful results can be obtained without
harm and for such small sum OF money. but.
then fact Is stranger than fiction.
Test the effect Of these tablets by getting a
case yourself, either from the MarmOla Co.. 2S3
Farmer Bldg. Detroit. Mich, or from any drug

the famous Marmola Prescription and, conse-
auently, cannot have any i'll effects. -

Salt Baths.

That many women are not strong
enough to get into tub of water is
true. 1t is equally true that even a
healthy woman may exhaust her vitality
by staying too long in warm water Fiji
teen minutes is none too long. however, if
the water is at blood Temperatures; that
is. when 1t causes no sensation of Dos
tive heat. But If bath taken under
such conditions causes a feeling Of lassi-
tude, tubs must be avoided, for thew will
do more narm than benefit. incidentally,
there are other ways of keeping the body
clean. For example, a salt bath Is tub
substitute, and crash bath mat is a
necessity for such baths taken Of tubs
To take such baths the bather stands on
"a soft mat, which is absorbent, so she
may indulge freely in the use Of water
without injury to the floor.
Besides the mat Il basin Of warm water
and some good bath soap are requisites.
As to whether u brush or cloth shall be
used Is a matter for the bather to decide.
l advocate the use OF brush. not only
because 1t is cleansing, but it's friction

In healthier condition. Plenty Of soap
must be rubbed on and then washing
should proceed as usual. No effort must
be made to rinse the BODY for a fresh

Well within reach there should be a
basin of coarse sea salt. It can be bought

body briskly. beginning at the throat and

ulng until every inch of the skin has
been covered. The body must not be
