"MlOsfit" PetticOats for
the Woman Who
Dresses Fashionably.

Simplicity of putting on and
adjusting to ones figure is a
strong and very attractive point of
the "Klos6t' Petticoat. Every
woman can be fitted perfectly, and
therefore they are of immeasur-
able value to the woman who
dresses fashionably.
Every Klosht Petticoat has the
Ve-shaped elastic side gusset that
expands and contracts according
to the position of the figure, fitting
it in every pose. This is the rea-
son of the smooth, even. glove
like fit over the hips and around
the waist. The patented elastic
waIstband with snap fasteners and
snap-fastening placket eliminate
the use of strings and old-fash-
Toned wrinkles and Fuckers.
Present styles of close-fitting
outergarments emphasize more
than ever the desirability and per-
lection of the "klosfit" Petticoat.

mother objected to the bride, whom
she looked upon as a shop girl, and
the young husband presently brought
suit for divorce. 1t was said that he
hoped his wife would settle for a lump
sum of money, but she defended the
action and. got an award of $12 a week
alimony. Not a cent Of this has been
paid, it is said, and the claims amount
now to $18, 900 without interest.
Garden went to Nice with his moth
cir and has lived there ever since.
Mrs. Garden began proceedings to To-
cate some property which could be
seized to collect the alimony, but
Judge Donnelly. her receiver appoint

Benjamin F. Schreiber was appointed
receiver. .

brother for s~afe-keeping.
Schneider instituted contempt pro-
ceedings against the Schoonmaker
company for not turning over the
bonds to him, as receiver in seques-
~tration, and won his case in the court
of appeals. Justice Guy then signed
the order turning over the bonds to
the receiver of Mrs. Garden. The sale
of the bonds Yielded $11, 500.
Mrs. Garden was a poor girl at the
time of the marriage. She had no
near relatives. Her beauty is said to
have been remarkable. She is now SIS.

SUFFRAGE NOTES

Clne of the signs of the present feel
ing toward suffrage for women was
well illustrated at the recent council
OF women voters in Washington.
They had "a conference at the capital
with the senate committee on suf-
frage and several of the women spoke,
urging that the proposed amendment
be brought up Is soon as . possible.
The conference was most satisfactory.
The crowd Of men and women present
~overfowed the large room and filled
the corridor. Toward the close Of the
meeting a woman from New York
arose and asked that the anti-sulra-
gists be allowed a conference.-the next
morning as it was only fair to hear
them. The request was graeiously
granted. Early the next morning sew
eral interested ~suffragists went
to the capitol to listen and learn from
their opponents; but failed to find any
conference and found just one "anti''
and she tAe lady who had asked for
the conference. = Upon inquiring from
a reporter who had come to take notes
on the conference, one of our friends
received this reply: I've seen quite
a number Of women and have asked
who they were and they have all been
s~uffragists come to watch the confer
ence. No "antis'. have arrived" So our
friends waited in vain for the "anti'
conference.
