And so the woman who must have
natural figure lines must owe them to a
corset, and the new corsets are miracu-
lousy constructed to give just the effects
desired. They make the hips slender and
, youthful, the back stSaight and are low
enough to permit glorious freedom to
the figure above the waist line. OF course,
they allow the waist to spread out-for
| flesh must go somewhere, but nobody
cares, for the general flow of lines and
the straight naturalness of the silhouette
are the thing-not the satisfaction CD of
being able to boast that ones waist
mea sures only sO-and-so.
The Straight-front corset was the ad-
vance prophet of the new corset cult,
and this corset-which has been such
boon to all womankind, and particularly
| to stout womankind-was originated by
Margarine LacrOix, Partisan corsetiere
who found her inspiration in the beautiful
| figure lines of the Victory of Samothrace
| (the Winged Victory, which stands in
| the Louvre. The straight-front corset
corset though it had not the supple lovely
| curves of nature over the hip and at the
back; but because Of it's exceeding COM
| fort, its hygienic qualities and its i'm
measurable improvement over the hideous
corset of the time which CONSTRUCTED the
| waist and vulgarly emphasized the lower
portion of the torso, 1t was Immediately
| taken to the heart of woman and its

| A development of this straight-front
corset, inspired by one Of the most beau
tiful examples Of Greek sculpture, is the
modern corset. designed to give the Greek

of perfect physical grace. These new cor

in without injury to the figure or the vital
organs. and just where 1t must be loose

time we may be all wearing panniers
and wondering how in the world we ever
submitted to the stiff and narrow hobble
skirts.
A great London tailor asserts that the
pannier may be made ito conceal the
lines of the figure SO skillfully that it
will be impossible to guess whether a
woman weighs 10 or 100 pounds. Where
ever the figure is heavy, there may the
kindly pannier be massed and the invari-
able narrow skirt at the foot will give
an effect of slenderness beneath the
bunched out material. For the advent of
the pannier has made not the least

LITERATURE OF THE MAINE.

The battleship Maine whose
spectacular reburial was described
in a recen number Of The Herald,
has naturally been the subject of
much writing and the theme Of
much eloquence. The last things
perhaps, and the best possibly, have
not yet been said or written. Still,
we may count at least two bits of
writing in connection with the
Maine tragedy that will hold per-
manent places in our literature.
One Of these is the poem, The
Fighting Race which appeared in
an Eastern newspaper about the
time Of the Spanish war. The name
of the author is not known to the
editor. 1t is MOI only good for its
association with the Maine disaster,
but for the splendid tribute to the
Fighting race"
The other lis a tribute to the or
poral of marines who reported the ac-
cident to the captain. in due form
and with proper ceremony, in the
midst of the awful confusion of the
moment. The name Of the writer
is not lost in this instance. We give
the poems in the order in which they
are here mentioned.

For Owe is first in their hearts no
doubt"
Said Burke; then Kelly said:
when Michael, the Irish archangel,
stands
The angel with the sword
And the battle-dead from a hundred
lands
Are ranged in one big horde,
Our line that for Gabriel's trumpet
waits,
Will stretch three deep that day,
From Jehoshaphat to the Golden
Gates,
Kelly and Burke and Shea"
well here's thank God for the
race and the sod"
Said Kelly and Burke and Shea.

Bill Anthony, Marine.

n. A. Jennings, in New York World.
When above the awful din rose the
sailors voices shrieking,
Help! help, For Gods sake help
us, ere we sink into the sea-"
When the light from bursting shells
showed the decks with blood
were reeking,
At attention" stood Bill Anthony
with courage bold and free.
Straight and cool as on parade, from
the danger never shrinking.
The orderly saluted as in steady
tones he said:
Il have, sir, TO inform you that the
ships blown up and sinking"
Then waited for his orders while
the shells crashed overhead.
In the fury OF the charge, when the
roar and thunder,
And men are drunk with fighting,
acts OF bravery are SEEM;
But to stand still at ''attention"
while his ship was rent asunder
Was the kind of courage shown by
Bill Anthony, marine.
In the roster of the heroes who have
striven for Old Glory,
High on the roll of honor give
Bill Anthony a place;
And when our theme is courage, let
us not forget the story
OF his standing at attention
when death stared him in the
face.

ELOQUENT ADDRESS.

The Register has received a copy
of the Clark Pilot Review containing
a synopsis OF the address of General
S. J. Conklin TO the old soldiers on
decoration day. Gen. Conklin is So
years of age and was publisher Of one
of the first newspapers in South Da-
kota along in the early SOS at Water

time he published the Journal at
Waterloo, Wis, in 1875, and, from
reading his address, we Judge that he

Corps. History does not record a
