FACTS REFUTE TALK
Idle to Call Trade Depression
Psychological.
Industries That Hsvs Shut Down Of
curtalled Production, and Men
Out Of Work Are Convincing
Arguments.

President Wilson tells the business
men Of America that while there Is q
trade depression, 1t is merely psyche
logical"
Can an extra dose Of psychology give
back to the railroad owners that
$98,000,000 which their properties have
lost in eight months this fiscal year
compared with the year before the
Wilson regime started?
Is 1t only a dream or q concrete fact
that 100000 workmen are now out Of
a job?
Can q mental state account for the
amazing reversal In Americas internar
tional trade figures. where monthly
excess of exports ranging up to $780,
100000 has turned into balance
against US Of $10,000.0 900 for April?
Does mere sentiment reduce our
steel-mill output to so per cent Of it,
capacity? Was It hysteria that blew
out $4,000 Pennsylvania coke ovensf
No. It was not merely psycholog-
ical"1 notion that unloaded American
made traffic from 100000 freight cars
and put them out of commission. Bald
wins didn't discharge more than half
their employees out Of pique.
Building operations In the United
States have not fallen greatly simply
to create political sentiment. Our
bankers are not sending shiploads Of
gold to Europe to spite somebody.
x When securities have been liquidat-
ed in 1S months to level $4,000. 000.-
900 below their former value the coun-
try is not suffering psychologically but
concretely.
1t Is outrageous mockery for those
whose excessive legislative meddling
is largely responsible for our present
trade ills to pretend that the people
who have suffered the loss and who
are out of work are themselves to
blame.
The president says there is nothing
more dangerous for business than un-
certainty" But his party has left busi-
ness In no uncertainty whatever. ex-
cept as to the extent of the calamity
which 1t may inflict.

WAIST SHOULD BE NORMAL
Correct corsetlng Always Ono Of the
Most Important Aids to Health
and Beauty.

At the root Of the Ills to which
feminine flesh Is heir IL incorrect cor
setting and tight, lacing. These are
by no means synonymous terms. One
may be incorrectly yet loosely cor
seted. Today 1t is the exceptional
woman who laces her corset 30 tightly
that her figure assumes an unnatural
contour Ten years ago many women
did. This Improvement is to some
degree to the credit of the wearers
Of corsets, but to a still greater degree
It Is to the credit of corset manufac-
turers and the mandates Of fashion.
Women who have just regard for their
health and beauty realize that tho
normal waist measurement Is an I'M
portant adjunct thereto. This Ii
proved by the factthat all ready-made
garments are two inches larger around
the waist than they were two years
ago, which means that most women
who used to wear % corset now
wear "a, and SO on through the DIFF
ferent sizes.
Leading physicians all admit that
women require support for the abdo-
men. Support is entirely different
from suppression. II the abdomen ID
suppressed, a lot Of trouble Is brought
on, the first sign Of which is constipar
ton. The colon cannot function prop
erly. More depends upon the colon
than most people are aware OF, even
some physicians. The direct results
OF restricting the action of the colon
are weakness. insomnia and dyspep-
STA; the indirect results are too nu-
merous to mention and would be SUI
perfiuous, because the prevailing
styles in corsets conform in great
degree to natures demands.
The wise physician raises his voice
not against the use but the abuse OF
the corset. A corset which supports
the abdomen will never be condemned
by those who are conversant with the
structure of the human body, mascu-
line or feminine More men wear
abdominal belts than is dreamed Of by
the public. Some of the most ad-
vanced scientists state that women
can wear corsets now which conform
to the latest fashion without sacri-
ficing their health.-Harriet Edwards

Hughes and the Presidency.

Justice Charles q. Hughes Of the
United States Supreme court IL said
to be the only presidential possibility
that Colonel Roosevelt fears In 1919
This will be news to those that have
cherished the belief that the colonel
did not fear any man, animal. reptile.
iish or other creature In all the world.
Nevertheless. It is quite compliment
to Justice Hughes, but whether or not
It will serve as an inducement to him
to consider the Republican nomination
in 1916 is problematical. Justice
Hughes would indeed be strong cam
didate II he could be induced to run,
and Colonel Roosevelt would have real
occasion to fear him as an opponent
II the colonel should decide to make
another try for that third cup of cof-
fee. But the chances are that Mr..
Hughes il perfectly satisfied to remain
where he is.-Sprihgfeld Union.
