portion extending from hip to hip. its
length broken by false yoke seam
running several inches below the belt.
The back Of this underskirt can be OF

SIR ROBERT BORDEN

The announcement that an i'm
perial conference is likely to be held
in Io;idon next summer, and that the
project has been the subject of cor
respondence between the British and
Canadian governments is regarded by
Canadians generally as giving consid-
cradle significance to the persistent
references, in Sir Robert Borden's re-
cent speeches, to Canada's unsatis-
factory status in the British empire
in respect of foreign affairs.
In the very first speech which the
prime minister delivered after the
outbreak of the war he made it clear
that in his opinion the war and the
various issues which it raised en-
phasized the undesirability of the
overseas dominions being without the
slightest voice or influence in the
management of the foreign affairs Of
the empire. This point he has re-
iterated, emphasized and elaborated
on in a series of addresses.

TO ACQUIRE SHAPELY ANKLES

to Be Desired.

There used to be a time when our
dresses. or at least the dresses OF our
mothers. reached to the floor. or 90
nearly so that brush braid or coarse
binding on the bottom hem was nee
esary to preserve the fabric. In those
days, II the tiniest bit of feminine
ankle showed above the shoctop II
was cue for a woman tc blush.
Praise be. these conditions do not
hold today. What with our hobble
skirts. slit skirts. tight skirts. short
skirts and now short circular skirts.
We have become accustomed to dis
playing our ankles. Woman's right
to the possession Of ankles has finally
been recognized. consequently pretty
ankles are greatly to be desired. a.,
they add to ones general appearance
and beauty is indeed a duty.
To improve the shapeliness Of ankles,
exercise and massage will do won
ders. 1t will be found that most
ankles which are unattractive, or not
quite so shapely as the possessor
might wish, either lack SUFFICIENT
flesh or else are too feshy.
II your ankles are little stout you
can reduce them in a month. or two
months at the most, by means Of q
little exercise ten minutes morning
and night. Remove the shoes and
stockings and cross the knees 80 that
the support Is removed from one
ankle. Thrust out the foot and move
it around from the ankle in a twisting
motion. then bend 1t up and down.
making sure that all this IL done with
the ankle bone. When one foot be-
comes tired shift position and exers
else the other ankle.-C. Eleanor
