The costumes for Kitty MacKaye' which
is running at the Comedy Theatre. In

hoops. she said. "but they couldn't do

Of them wear crinoliue instead. That is

There are many other difficulties in the

A THlMBLE BONNET.
Riding Habits

At the opening Of the spring season the
problem of tho correct riding attire for
Young eauestriennes Is one which is occu-
pying tho minds of mothers who are am
bilious to have their children as smarty
hablted as their grown-up rivals IN the
park and at the horse shows.
There has been a great increase in the
number OF juvenile riders and exhibitors
st the shows i'm tho last year or So Al
Piping Rock the children formed one OF
the most interesting features, and AT Bryn
Mawr there were sixteen proud young
sters In the pony class. one OF tho largest
exhibits of the week Almost any day
one may see the children Of Fifth avenue
riding with their srooms i'm Central Park.
Miss Margaret Carnegie, Miss Joan whit
nev. Miss Mabel Satterlee. Miss Cathleen
Vanderbilt and Miss Katherine Mackay
are known TO the frequenters OF the park
as expert riders.
With the increase in the popularity OF
riding for young folks there has grown up
a curious want in the world Of fashion
No srown-up would dream of wearing a
riding habit which was not custom made
and beyond reproach in the matter OF
trimness and perfection in all the niceues
OF cut which mark the riding habit de
luxe. Children must he no less correctly
attired. but for the growing girl II Is an
expensive proposition to keep having new
habits made to order by the fashionaoie
tailor every little while. To solve TINS
problem Nardi. the leading maker OF
smart attire for riding, has made de-
parture in the way OF ready-to-wear nab

A LESSON PAPER.

"The most important muscle involved
I'm breathing is the diaphragm. 1his Is a
thin, fat muscle, shaped like an inverted
saucer and forms a complete floor OF the
chest cavity.
"rhe diaphragm is attached to the back
follows along the outer rim Of the lowest
rib in the back and sides, and is attacheo
10 the breast bone (sternum) In front
The diaphragm also helps 70 prevent the
contents of the chest cavity from inter
fering with the organs within the an
dominal cavity (stomach, liver, kidneys
and ntestines, etc).
when the air is being drawn into tne
lungs and the diaphragm contracts thet
IS. when the hbres Of the muscles con-
tracO. the diaphragm is pulled downward
and presses upon the stomach and liver;
and they in turn press upon the intes-
tines AS the diaphragm descends the
lungs expand at their base and remain N
contact with the diaphragm all the TINT
When the air is forced out OF the lungs
and the diaphragm relaxes the organs
within the abdomen return to their nor
NAL position.
IF the corset causes distress, discoru-
fort or pain at any point between the
waist line and the top of the corset 1t in
dicates either wrong corset construction
Incorrect selection or improper adjust
ment OF the corset.
THE effect upon the body, IL there is
much compression, may ne to interfere
with the movements of the diaphragm.
This, in turn, may interfere with tina
breathing.
Such interference prevents the proper
publication Of the blood, in which case
the blood is sent throughout the entire
body loaded with impurities. Under such
conditions it would be easy for tubercu-
Iosis to develop. Tubercular germs never
develop i'm the lungs, except when the
lungs are unable to perform their normal
functions.
"Corsets, 10 be correct, must not COM
press the ribs; there must be absolute
freedom Of movement OF the body above
the waist line in order not to interfere
with the functions OF the lungs, heart and
diaphragm"
To supplement these lessons institutes
are held in large cities all over the coun.
try-one was held In England last winter
too-at which physicians lecture and prac.
tical demonstrations are given on living
figures.

LITTLE ERRORS; BIG MEANINGS.
IT'S amusing how easily one can make
little errors with biz meanings. In Japan
if YOU lap YOUR kimono one way il means
YOU are alive. while Tapped the other way
Il means you are dead Many an Amer
lean woman has given the Japanese wom-
en- chance 20 laugh by thus announcing
that she was a corpse though proclsiming
in every other way that she was em-
phaticaly alive. Even the polite Jap
ancse would smile openly at this. They
do not regard death as some OF us do.
TO them il is only that YOU have turned
your face to the wall and changed your
world
con .he other hand it is sometimes
necessary TO make mistakes 'on purpose
in costumes. David, in Kitty Mackay,
for instance cannot wear An exact uni
form because the laws or Great Britain
prohibit the wearing Of British uniforms
except ny members Of the army. SO there
has to be something different about it.

CHINA DOES NOT KNOW
OF JAP. MOVEMENTS

Pekin, Sept 23.-Of the progress Of
Japan operations against the Ger
mans at KiaO Chau practically nothing
can be learned here, even in official
quarters, owing to the strictness of the
japanese censorship.
Chinese government functiOnaries
themselves near the scene of the cam
paign are not allowed to send out any
thing concerning Japanese reverses, de-
lays or even slight losses. There has
been no objection to the filing of news
telling of victories by the mikado s
forces, but only such vague references
to regiments and warships are permitted
that it is impossible to tell what is
meant.
Mail advices from Toxic are to tle
effect that a similar policy has been
adopted with reference to incoming ca
bles, with the result that the people
have been regaled with stirring series
of japanese successes but have heard
next to nothing of any of the Difficult
ties of the campaign.
