Paris. July 3.
II looks as IL the short tunic idea-that
is. the arrangement In which part or
the top of the gown passes under tbe
belt and hangs down on the skirt-would
be continued in the autumn models IL II
is, II means the eclipse Of the separate
blouse, even with tailored suits. Blouses
will be made with trimming that conforms
to the skirt and coat, and part of this
will be carried down on the skirt so as
to give the idea of complete dress and
do away with any lecided break at the
waist line.
This is all in the direction Of more
.nsthetic manner OF dressing and is more
becoming to the average woman. In dis
cussing fashions we rarely have TO take
into account the figure that needs TO be
shortened. The tall woman or the woman
who looks tall by reason of her slimness
is fashionable, and the most SUCCESSFUL
fashions are those which give such an
effect. TIE break at the waist line caused
by wearing a blouse Of color and ma
terial different from that of the skirt seems
to-day so unbecoming that We wonder at
the vogue 1t had for so many years.
The woman who is undersized or too
stout for her bone development would do
well TO consider II she would not be i'm

from the directory the block In which Chi
cago is situated. Then. turning TO the sin
gle tariff sheet he will ascertain the num-
ber of the scale OF rates, which applies On
all packages between block $2 and block
SSs
This method OF stating rates, the report
holds will avoid the great body of com
plaints arising out of undercharges and
oyercharges the present method Of stating
rates being so confusing that not even the
exnress agents are able 20 discover the
lawful rate between two points. The d.
rectory of express stations is also to state
the delivery limits in each city within
which the express company gives service
on its tariff rates.
II is found that the large number OF
double collections Of express charges arises
out OF the fact that package which has
been prepaid does not bear sufficient cvi-
dence Of this fact Accordingly. the report
presents a set Of labels and way bills In
different colors, which the carriers are re-
ouired TO use and In the event that the
package does not bear any label the ship
ment is to be delivered Il the cons!gnee
without collection of any charges. the
carrier bearing the burden of discovering
where the mistake lies.
The present system requires the state
ment OF about two hundred times as many
rates as the system proposed by the com
mission However. as each agent under
tho pau svsteu will he obliged TO know
only the rates that apply between his sta
ton and each Of the other blocks. he WI
have to consult only $50 rates to find the
proper charge from his station to every
other station within the United States.

China has advised the Stare Department
about openings for university graduates as
teachers and for the customs service IN
that country. He states that there is little
chance for young men to get positions In
the customs service, and 1t is difttcult to
say what the provisional government may
do with respect TO the employment or
teachers.
The Vice Consul says that before the
revolution foreign teachers were employed
in several of the provincial colleges. and
that the indications are they Will be
retained at least until their contracts ex-
pire. Most OF the American teachers OBJ
tanned positions through Chinese students
at foreign universities and the Young

Expects Better Service.

OF foremost importance is the require
ment that all the express companies shall
join in the esta blishment OF through routes
by the quickest lines Of communication be
tween all express Offices and shall publish
through rates to apply between those
points The same provision gives the ship
per the right 10 name the route by which
his property shall be carried II is believed
by Commissioner Lane that these IrO-
visions will effect an Improvement in the
service and a great economy 10 the car
riers. which now haul shipments often by
clrcuitous routes TO avoid turning them
over TO connecting line.
The most radical departure from existing
methods lies in the plan adopted OF apply
ing the new rates. In the United States
there are 5000 express stations. To name
rates from each Of these TO every other
station requires the statement Of more than
800. 900, go different rates. These schedules
now occupy several hundred volumes OF
from 200 TO 800 pages each In the tariff de-
partment Of the commission. The rates
themselves are intricate and involved. and
II requires expert authority TO determine
the lawful rate between any two points.
The problem OF reducing this enormous
volume of rate schedule to a genuinely
practicable compass is one to which Com
missioner Lane devoted most serious at
tention. He has evolved a method whereby
the rates from any point in the United
States TO all other points may be printed
on a single sheet or card about one-fourth
Of the size OF a single newspaper page.
The first step in the consummation OF
the plan was the division OF the United
States into blocks. each approximately fifty
miles square. Rates are proposed between
each of these blocks. treating all cities and
towns within each block as common points.
Each OF these blocks is one degree OF
longitude In length and one degree OF lati-
tude In width. To every express station
within each OF these blocks the rate Is the
same from any other given block. Thus
the rate Is stated as between blocks rather
than as between cities
