MODERN WOMEN LACK GRACE
Famous Artist Says Fair Sex NsVeH
Before Walked or Carried IA
self so Badly. -

Marcus Stone, r O.. the famous
artist, says: Il do not believe that
women-or men either, for that mat
ter-have ever walked or carried
themselves as badly as they do now,
the women with their elbows out.
their shoulders UP, their necks push
ed forward. the men for the most
part chestless creatures with slopIng
necks. Arms were not made TO stick
out on either side like Jug handles.
"Of course, as an artist I am at
war with fashion and its constant
changes-which prevent woman
evolving a dress which expresses her
individuality especially with the
fashion of wearing corsets. which. to
my mind, destroy the outlines OF the
figure and cramp the freedom OF
woman's movements. Never before
in my life has woman been so much
imprisoned and laced up as she ia
today-that is to say, of course, all
except the willowy women. whose fig-
ures accord with present fashion.
How can she move gracefully in
tube which pushes her shoulders up,
shortens her neck. and sends her ell
bows out? The sloping attitude of
neck adopted by men and women
attribute to the wearing, especially
when young, of high stir collars. The
least pressure on the back OF the
neck sends the head forward, and
thus a habit Is formed"

eOiru Back to the Old Declaration

Chicago Examiner: DR.. Eliot took
the freedom Of the Fourth to stand
up in Faneuil hall-of all places-and
say that the Declaration of Independ-
ence is a misleading document; that
we are not created, equal. and that we
have not the inalienable rights to life,
liberty and pursuit of happiness.
This seems rather startling, but close
reading shows that DR.. Eliot finds less
fault with the statement as an abstract
proposition than with the conditions
that make It absurd. We are not the
less created equal because Immediately
after birth later conditions remove the
basis Of equality. And If our further
rights are not inalienable it is because
they have been alienated by what he
calls new Interference"
The Declaration of Independence
brought about the freedom of the Am
erican people more than a century ago
The study and assertion Of that dec
laration, as it was intended, will result
no less surely in the betterment Of
conditions that have grown up under
a perversion Of the feelings and wishes
Of the fathers OF the republic.

c. B. HARRISON To
LEAVE Y. NJ. C. A.
MAN WHO HAS HAD CHARGE OF
THE PHYSICAL WORK IN THE
LOCAL ". M. c. A. TO ATTEND
COLLEGE THIS FALL-To TAKE
FURTHER PHYSICAL COURSE.

The many friends Of c, n. Harrison.
who for the past three years has been
az the head OF the Fargo Y. NJ. c. A.
physical department, win regret to hear
that he expects to leave this associa-
ton and take up college work this fall.
1t is not definitely known at what
time Mr.. Harrison win leave He has
promised the directors that he will re-
main until another man Is found to
take his place, Mr.. Wolf is east at the
present time making arrangements for
Mr.. Harrison's successor
For the past two years Mr.. Harrison
has been planning on continuing study
in college along the line OF physical
education. He has tried to get leave,
but some how the work of the Assoc
citation was so tied up that he felt
he ought not go. Last year at this
time, the association had the building
of the running track on its hands,
and the boys were so in earnest over
the proposition that he felt it his duty
to remain and see the thing through.
Everything is in shape now" said
Mr.. Harrison today, "and I feel that
there is no use in waiting any longer.
1t has been an extreme pleasure to
work here and think the work has
done me as much good as 1t has those
who trained under me. There is no
section of the country that have lived
in that / have become so fascinated
with as this part of the country"
Mr.. Harrison feels that the work has
been put on more definite lines upon
strong working basis. I'VE have all
worked together and endeavored to
make the association take the high
place It should occupy in the COM
munity. We feel as though the assoc
citation had become a part Of the life
of this city and are encouraged to see
from time to time results Of its In
f1uence."
Mr.. Harrison has not decided def
nitely on any college but wherever
he goes, it will be to take up a course
in physical training that will lead to
larger fields. In several OF the colleges
Of the country a course is now being
offered in physical training that leads
to the bachelor degree. This Is what
Mr.. Harrison has In view and expects
Il, begin this fall. After a college
course he may follow with medical
course but that is not certain as yet.
The local association loses one Of it's
very best officers with his leaving, one
who set his heart to the work and has
made success Of that department Of
the association. While in the city, Mr.. I
Harrison has made host Of friends
and has filed need that was badly
felt in the community. His many
friends and association workers will
regret very much to see him leave, and
wish him success wherever he goes.

Chicago. July 25.--It is the belief
among wheat traders that conditions
at the moment are not right for a bull
movement unless there is decided
change for the worse in northwestern
crop conditions OF a better export de-
mand. Those who have been bullish
were disposed to modify their views
yesterday. News from the northwest
was less radical and some OF the
northwestern people said they believed
that the extreme reports of crop dam
age were somewhat exaggerated. The
outcome there, however, depends upon
the weather OF the next three weeks.
Warm and forcing temperatures would
be more satisfactory to Minnesota,
the Dakotas and the Canadian north
west Inter Ocean.

RELIGIONS AS A CLOAK.

Kansas City Journal: Religious IL
berry IN this country Is subjected to
some severe strains by persons who
employ religion as cloak for the
prosecution OF their own evil designs.
There appears to be no limit to the
credulity Of those who become the
dupes Of these vicious false prophets
who arise from time to time and make
the most incredible and blashphemous
claims TO being the incarnation OF d.
vinity. The salacious See case now oc-
cupying SO much Of the public atten-
ton is one in point. According to the
testimony which appears from day to
day the details are so revolving that
they can only be limited at and the
dupes on the so-called absolute life
cult are the very ones who seem to BIO
shielding the head Of this preposter-
Gus creed.
It is significant that so many of
these 'incarnations" wallow in the
mire Of immortality. One is rarely found
who follows the precepts of the Master
who went about doing good" The
first thing is to set up a claim to "di-
Vtnity"; then new heaven" is estab-
lished and gui1lible women are pre-
vailed on to become inmates, usually
designated by sacreligious titles. But
stripped of all false claims the situa-
ton is quickly reduced to one of flag
rant moral delinquency to one of flag
rant moral delinquency and is entitled
to no more leniency than any other ex-
hibitfon of depravity.
The Books" written by the central
figure In the Chicago scandal were so
obscene that they could not be read in
public, and this of itself puts them and
their author beyond the pale OF religi-
Gus liberty so grossly abused. These
books were Of course written under
inspiration" the fiimsy excuse for
promulgating teachings which insure
TO the advantage of the plausible
prophet" who does not appear to have
lacked victims willing to be victimiz-
ed.
II this prophet" is guilty of the acts
charged against him, he should be Wis
tied with the severest punishment
within the laws protecting public NOR
ais. Firm hands should be laid on all
dangerous enemies of public decency
