DOUBLET is TO COME BACK
Fashion That Cannot Add to Feminine
Beauty and VIII Not Be Ae-
corded Welcome.

Fashion, that naughty rival OF ma
ture, to whose dictates both the graces
and beauty are frequently sacrificed.
has revived the doublet from pre-Eliz'
abethan times-the best specimen OF
which is preserved In the Isham col
lection In the Victoria and Albert mu'
scum, London.
The revival has not brought i'm
provement upon the original design
the modern waist" 10 a shapeless,
wrinkled affair, with row OF closely
set buttons going down the front. II
the influence were confined to single
garment, there would be leSs cause
for protest, but It has spread and the
misunderstanding lines have been In
corporated into some Of the latest
negligees and boudoir gowns. Fancy
robblng these garments OF all their
feminine curves and frivolities! Dress
Is to beauty what harmony is to mel
ody; It ought to set 1t on to advan-
tage, to enhance its luster: never to
cover or disguise It. The straight up
and-down lines of masculine doublet
are certainly not appropriate, as the
promoters OF the fashion will doubt
less learn from experience.

FARM LOANS ARE TOO TIGHT
Dean Miller Believes Kansas Should
Help Enterprising Farmers Get
Money Easier.

Kansas ought to make 1t easier for
the tenant farmer or young man with
little capital to buy q farm, ]. H.
Miller, dean OF the division Of ex-
tension at the agricultural college,
believes. The tenant or the young
man will not be helped, Dean Miller
says, until he can borrow at about
per cent on fifteen years time
from GO TO so per cent Of the value
of a farm. Farmers cannot now
borrow more than co per cent Of the
valuation OF the farm; in fact, in
western Kansas loans are allowed
only for 40 to so per cent. Dean Nil
Ter believes the Legislature could help
the situation by way Of exemptions
to companies and individuals that
would make loans. at s per cent for
ten or fifteen years.
