AGAINST THE CLINGING STYLE
Writer, Possibly for Personal Reasons,
Denounces Proposed Change
in Mems Clothing.

This is-well, let's say amusing
this dictate of fashion that men
must wear in 1914 clinging garments
isn't it? Because some of us must
either adopt pads or endure the
mockery of the masses While parad-
ing in the guise of human scare
crows or Punch and Judy shows-if
clinging buds do master masculinity.
And some of us will lose one large
subject of conversation and laugh
ter, for we won't any longer be able
to criticise the garments of our sis
tiers, wives and affinities. If any one
consideration can do more than an
other to prevent the general adop-
ton of tight styles for men this loss
of critical opportunity is likely to
be the thing, isn't it? 1t never will
do to give ladies an opportunity to
turn the batteries of laughter on the
masculine half of humanity, will it?
Of course a compromise may be ar
ranged-but compromises seldom
wear well, do they ?-Detroit Free

BY BILLIE BURKE.

There is an old Persian proverb
which is translated thus: VERY few
know how much they must know in
order to know how little they know"
There is a distinction about the per-
son who always reveals good manners
that no one can attain otherwise-he
always gives the impression of know
ing"
While we all know that the basis
OF good manners is the exercise Of
the golden rule, yet it is his or her
little conventional mannerisms that
indelibly mark the gentleman or gen.
tlewoman.
II possible every woman should de-
vote one afternoon and evening TO her
friends She should have a stated
day" when her friends will know
she is Eat home" On this day" she
will be "spic and span" as to both her
house and herself. She can serve tea
or other very light refreshments, but
there should be nothing ostentatious
about this kind of social life.
If you know your friend has n re-
ception day you should try to call up
on her at that time if you are in
debted to her.
Who shall make the first call?
In America the older residents call
upon the new Corners except in Wash
ington, where the stranger calls first
upon the residents.
First calls should be paid within a
fortnight and il is very discourteOus
net to return a first call unless the
person making it is truly objection
able. But with the first call returned
one need not follow up the acquaint-
ance unless one desires.
A woman never calls upon man
except on business at his office OT
place of business.
A young woman can ask man to
call upon her If she so desires, and a
man ask if he may call If he wishes
, TO prolOng the acquaintance.
The length of a formal call should
/ not exceed 90 minutes or half hour
but do not offer your hostess the
slight of a too hurried call.
A delightful way for a single mar
to Pay off his social obligations is by
giving a theater party.

AT THE ORPHEUNI.

The new bill at the Orpheum open
ing Sunday is a well arranged show
There is an abundance OF laughs,
some good songs and very classy dane
ing.
The Mis-fit Army" George Reno's
comedy production, is not new, by
any means but it is always funny.
The different characters have been
selected on account OF their physical
contrasts more than their ability as
entertainers and they do make people
laugh. The antics of the fat boy
and the midget attract the most at
tention and the burlesque evolutiOns
are usually funny.
Bernard and Scath have a singing
and talking act full OF life and novel
". ]. j. Bernard is a clever char
acter actor and keeps he interest at
top notch every minute. Miss Scatn
assists materially and the two out over
several exclusive comedy SONGS.
The YaltO do offer classy society
and acrobatic dances. They 90 about
their work with much less fuss than
many more loudly heralded dancers
and do more interesting steps in a
neater manner than usual.
Carson Brothers are fine examples
of physical perfection. Their posing
is beautiful and their hand stands and
wrist-lifting is n marvel Of strength
and ease. Raymond Teal the min
strel man, replaces Aileen Stanley who
was billed. and pleases with his or
iginal talk and clean PAROLES.

To Wurd off Winter

TO keep the face smooth, white and
beautiful all winter, there's nothing quite
so good as ordinary mercOlized wax.
Rough. chapped or discOlOred skin, inev-
liable in this weather. is gently absorbed
by the wax and replaced by the newer,
fresher skin beneath. The face exhibits no
trace Of the wax, the latter being applied
ut bedtime and washed off mornings.
Creams, powders and rouges, on the other
hand, are apt 20 appear conspicuous at
this season, because of alternating eXpan-
sion and contraction Of the skin, due 10
changing temperatures. | advise YOU 10
try this simple treatment. Get an ounce
OF mercOlized wax at any drug store and
use like cold cream. This will help any
skin at once, and In a week or so the
complexion Will look remarkably youthful
and healthy.
Winds and flying dust often cause
squirting and other cOntcrtions which
make wrinkles. You can quickly get rid
of every wrinkle. however produced by

WEEKLY REVIEW IN
 FINANCIAL WORLD
Temporary Satisfaction of Demand From Shorts
 Leaves Stocks Flabby

New York, May 10.-Temporary satis-
 faction of the demand from the shorts
 left last weeks stock market in fab by state. This condition was aggra-
 vated by the lessening of confidence in
 the success of mediation in Mexico. and toward the end of the week the market lost ground. Disinclination to embark on speculation either for rise or fall was characteristic.
 The crop prospect constituted a basis for confidence. The government report formulated the promise of a winter wheat crop hundred million bushels in
 excess of last years heavy yield. and
 defined the forward state of other crops. Business. however still hesi-
 tated. Hand-to-mouth buying of mer chandise. cautious lending by banks, land the preference of investors for short term securities all manifested doubts. The influence of declining steel markets was supplemented v the decteased copper consumption and the growing number of Idle freight cars. Current earnings reports of the railroads were somewhat better by comparison with a poor period last year. and with the advantages of economies this year.
 Shifting of the demand for gold from
 London to New York threatened stiff fening of interest rates for money, d.
 though the continueN accumulation of
 funds here on transactions with the interior and the small requirements of the business world made unlikely any | marked tightening of the money mar Ret in the immediate future. The strug- gle with credit troubles of various rail roads burdened the whole market. The selections for the federal reserve board made a good impression. In Europe un- easiness was renewed over Ulster and the Balkans, with the suspicion that gold absorption was going into war chests.
