STRAIGHT GIRDLES FAVORED.
And tho Problem Of the Woman With a
Large Waist is Accentua lated.

The newest designs that have been
sent over from Paris as forerunners
OF the summer styles show a marked
tendency to straight girdles passed
around the figure directly Mt the line
where the old waist used to be before
we allowed the natural largeness Of
the figure to have it's fullest develop
ment there. These belts could not be
worn with the frock or skirt and sepa-
rate blouse that shows small decrease
OF size between the bust and hips
White or light muslin frocks have
belt Of three inch black velvet rib
bon which is a decided return to the
days when small waists We're in fash
ion. The empire line is also accentu-
ated In evening frocks and short jack
cts, but one does not yet see it on day
frocks. The 1ndividualist may try it
out, but the average dressmaker is
content to work out the return to the
normal waist.
You may think that the problem Of
the women who must get small waist
Is the more difficult one, as flesh has
a way of remaining where it has gain
ed a strong hold, but after all the cor
setiere faces the worst of the work.
Unless she knows how skillfully to
handle the shaping of corset and
can contrive to give it flexible ap-
pearance at the normal waist line, the
work of the dressmaker is in vain
and the task Of the woman who wants
small waist is almost impossible.
Again has body blow been dealt the
woman who is stout? The large waist
line was her hope to be fashionable,
and If it is taken away what will she
do to be rightly dressed?

conditions existing in northern Hum

ten and inoculated domestic animals
with the rabies, until mad dogs, sheep
and cattle have become so common
that human life is menaced.
1t is stated that Juan Jaca had a
band of 80 sheep affected which were
segregated and began to destroy each
other, until all were dead. The sheep
dog became affected and ran to the
ranch house, foaming at the mouth
and swapping, but was killed before il
could attack anyone
At the Vance ranch, the dogs were
noticed fighting a mad coyote which
succeeded in biting them all and then
ran for the house, where it was killed.
The dogs were afterwards DESTROYED.

People in that section of the county
are in a state of panic, anu .ne county
commissioners are called upon to fur

IT is claimed that responsibility for
the situation rests with an Oregon
game warden, who planned to exter
inmate the coyote family by inoculat.

purpose, with the sirus of rabies.
