There is no way of hiding deficiencies
Of the human form if these tight basques
are accepted. When the material is
wrinkled, then there is more hope. But
when it is darted and scanned. the very
outlines of ones corsets are shown. At
present such materials as gaberdine,
serge and taffeta are used. but IL an at
tempt is made to follow this design for
gowns or even shirt waists, what will we

The Basque Brought It In.

There are some women who are wear
Ing the tight basque with its darts in
front and its seams in the back, and at
the same time emitting the long waist
line, but they have to be exceedingly
slender to successfully do that The
woman with the high. thick waist cannot
afford to be so daring. She looks like a
German sausage. Her clothes creep up
on the figure in the exasperating way
clothes have of doing when they are
mounted on a straight line
So if you are thinking seriously of
wearing one of those long-waisted
basques go to your best corset maker at
once and train the waist line for the new
fashion. 1t probably is not quite correct
to say that Prements basque brought in
the long waist. for the Russian blouse

women who have pulled girdles, wide

Have You Had The Grip?

There are certain disorders, such as
the grip, that especially debilitate and
make the body an easy prey for more
dangerous diseases. Ask those who
have had the grip regarding the pres
ent condition of their~health and most
of them will answer: "Since had the
grip l have never been WELL" They
still have profuse perspiration. the
persistent weakness of the limbs. the
disordered digestion, shortness or
breath and palpitation of the heart
caused by the hin-blooded condition
in which the grip almost always
leaves its victim after the fever and
influenza has subsided. They are
furthermore, at the mercy Of relapses
and of complications, often very seri-
Gus. In an attack of the grip there
is rapid thinning of the blood and
not until the blood is built UP again
is complete health restored.

Dr. Jolly writes:
With 63 veterinarians under my drec-
ton the work began in earnest early last
spring, in investigating the S13 infected
herds which had been reported during
the years 1911 and 1912. The investigation
consisted IN applying the tuberculin test
to the herd and disinfecting the prem
ises. The information received being SO
remote in many cases 1t was impossible
to trace the herd; but we succeeded in To-
eating 18S herds.
During this year, the cases of tubercu-
losis reported from Brighton market, also
those from our Maine butchers, were at
tended to promptly and practically, no
difficulty was encountered in locating the
herds where the animals originated and
in every instance investigation was or
dered and carried out.
We have this year investigated from
these two sources of information 245 in
fected herds, with 1sS herds of the last
administra tion, a total in all of 4S3 infect

from the large number of cattle which

amounting to nearly 20000 head; about
is per cent of our total number of mich
cows. Our pure bred cattle, l believe,
have all been tested; but the greatest
proposition for the ordinary milkman is
how to keep his herd clean when he has
to shift cattle most every week in order
to keep up his milk supply and satisfy
his customers. the average milkman will
not be interested in the tuberculn test,
for the main reason that he has no herd
to preserve Cities and towns desiring
to have their milk supply from tested
herds must depend upon their local board
of health for action. l believe that if all
our milkmen throughout the State would
have their cows tested once a year we
would in five years reduce bovine tuber-
culosis in our State to less than per
cent. But the consumers must be aware
that it costs more to produce clean milk
from healthy animals than where neither
pains are taken nor extra money Is ex-
pended. and they must be ready to pay
the price.

"'This place Is heaven to what II
was a few years ago.
These words spoken to me recent
ly by one Of the prisoners. voices the
opinion of many concerning prison
management. Changes have been
made which have produced results JUS
tifying the changes. The management
of the men is in line with reforms in
other states, so far as an antiquated
plant will permit.
THE change in the treatment OF the
men has been great, the change in the
conduct of the men has been corres-
pondingly great, and they, too, de-
serve much credit for splendid results.

from 100 to 220, and not one Of this

cellent discipline is maintained. Rules
are strict and are rigidly enforced.
Ask any prison worker If 200 men can
be kept under strict discipline with
out frequent severe punishments. at
times, and the answer will probably
be No. But that is precisely what
has been done here. Not only has the
dark dungeon, relic of the barbarous
ages. been unused for months, but all
forms of punishment are now infre-
quent. Periods ranging from two
weeks to six weeks without single
case of punishment of any sort are
common. At the present time perl
cd of eight weeks has passed without
only one case of misconduct requiring
discipline, and that of man apparent
ly mentally unbalanced.
How has it been brought about?
"The answer is soon given. Disci-
pline is now enforced by giving priv
ileges for good conduct, and with
holding these privileges as a penalty
for infraction of the rules, and the
plan has produced splendid results.
Some of the privileges have been Of
long standing.
A deduction from the sentence for
good record and the hope of a pardon
in the case of men serving life SEN
tence have long been incentives to-
wards good conduct. To others have
peen added to these the hope of a pa
role for such as are eligible, and the
privilege of playing baseball and 9TH
er games in the prison yard on each
pleasant Saturday during the sum-
mer months. These things are doing
the working OF keeping the men in line
as nothing else can do
Men who laughed at the dark
dungeon have become careful and obe-
dent to the rules, knowing that only
in that way could they have the yard
Formerly a man receiving punishment
had the sympathy and encouragement
of his fellow prisoners, was a sort of
hero, Or was credited with being
tough Now the man who invites pun
ishment-for no man gets it otherwise
is regarded as foolish by his fell
lows.
Formerly men encouraged each 9TH
er TO refrain from the same forbidden
acts, feeling that the consequences
may affect the privileges of not one
but many. Formerly there were hard
