of the present day demands style, but she refuses to be uncomfortable.
 If you desire to look well in your clothes, you must be well corseted The corset is the foundation upon which style is built. "A perfect woman nobly planted lis considered to be one of natures most beauti- full creations, but unfortunately there are very few perfectly formed wom- en. The corsetiere has made it pos sible to correct natures shortcom- ings by designing stays that will suc- cessfully conceal almost every de- feet.
 For instance, if the upper portion of your body is slender but you're inclined to be large at the hips and too thick through the abdomen, you can overcome this by wearing cor set made to conf1ne the hips and at the same time giving a fiat line to. the abdomen.
 This corset may be short above the waistline, allowing absolute freedom about that point. It is especially acceptable to women who believe in deep breathing, when lungs and dia- phragm have room to expand to their fullest capacity.
 The well-corseted figure is no long CT the one that is encased in a stiffly- boned, armor-like pair of stays that allows little freedom of movement The days of tight facing and stiff cor sets ended with the passing of the 1S-

Inch waist.
 If your back is too fat, don't think that a corset with a high line at the back will make it appear flat. Buy a low-back corset so that the fat will not be pushed up, making the back look even fatter, and wear a we'll fitting brassiere. This indispensable garment will do away with the pro- nounced ridge at the top of the cor set, which is always unsightly.
 The woman with a short, heavy figure and prominent bust should wear corset with low bustline. It should not extend more than 2 1-2 inches above the waist. A brassiere made of strong, firm material should always be worn with the corset.
 Have you a figure that is round like candle" or square" looking? Don't let it worry you, for there's a front-lace corset that is particularly adapted to either of these figures. It | is low-busted and there is just little nip in at the waist-line that gives a graceful curve, eliminating that boxy
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1918-04-26

unattractive look The front-lace corset makes the Tback flat and straight and the hips straight.
 Then. there is the figure with thighs that are out of proportion. The right corset will conceal this defect. It has long skirt which fits very close ly over the thighs. Many of the mod els have insets of elastic at the sides and little or no boning over the hips.
 Then there is an excellent corset specially designed for the school girl. One model is made entirely of silk jersey cloth, slightly boned with the most pliable of whalebone. Other models have elastic side sections, ex- tending from top to bottom. Either of these corsets give absolute comfort and freedom of motion.
 There is no economy in buying a ''cheap" corset. Invest in a well made corset, the one best suited to your particular needs, no matter what it costs. A good corset can always be successfully renovated and will outwear two or three of a cheaper grade.
 The day of the blind acceptance of one style of corset is gone Wom- en have awakened to the fact that comfort is not entirely separated from beauty, that one need not be "caged' to be well-corseted, and the demand has regulated the supply.

LOYALTY

A woman's creed, recently present ed by Mrs. T. T. Cotman, director of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, and which the members of various woman's organiz- ations are being asked to adopt, is as follows:
 q believe in the United States of America, the mothers of freedom, and in her sons and daughters who have transmitted her spirit from genera tion to generation, undaunted, un- conquered, unafraid.
 q belive that the principles of self-government upon which our na- tion was founded were conceived in the mind of God and confided to the American people as a sacred trust and that those great ones of the past who gallantly assumed this trust, en- during hardships and freely shedding their blood that we might have the heritage of liberty, have in turn made us the guardians of the na- tion's soul
 'I believe that loyal service to my country is the highest service to my self, that the honor of my country 1S lily LULU, uSI ASSu lily 1lSSOs ASI danger my danger, her security my security, her happiness my happi- ness.
 q will never bring reproach upon her by any act of mine, never en- danger her by my folly, but live so that I may be worthy to be called an American and die, if need be, that her spirit may live.
 q pledge my heart, my mind, my soul, my fortune, my life to my country"
 Mrs. CarrieChapman Catt is presi- dent of the National American Wo- man Suffrage Association, which has headquarters at No. I'll Madison avenue. She has had the womans creed as prepared hy Mrs. Gotham copied and sent to all the suffrage organizations allied with the nation al body. Mrs. Gotham is an Arkan- sas woman. She is president of the Equal Suffrage central committee of | that state.

HOW TO MAKE YOU'D OWN SOAP.

A domestic war duty that rises now for attention is that of making soap at home. Soap is getting very costly because of dearness and scarcity of fats. It is an easy article to manu- facture. All needed is a little pa tience and few recipes. For a toilet soap: Melt five pounds of pure lard, and two and one-half ounces of salt and boil for ten minutes, after which remove the scum and strain through a fine sieve. Set aside three hours while the water and dirt sep arates. Strain again melt in kettle and add cup of rose or orange water. Add an eighth of an ounce of powdered alum. Boil slowly ten minutes, removing scum. Coll off un- til grease forms on side of kettle, when it is ready to be molded. Any perfume in oil form can be used" If made with care, this soap will not cost much more than what you buy and will be almost as good.

JOINED FORCES.

A woman who had not given quantity of square doilies three and four inches square, put them to good service by joining them together with lace and using them on her buffet; she objected to using them separately and was highly pleased with the scarf that resulted from joined forces. Squares of tan linen, embroidered in colors can be joined effectively to form table runners. Of course, the lace should match the color of the linen. If you should fail to find tan to match, dip white or cream lace in tea. Try little piece of lace first so you can tell if the tea is of the proper strength.

DOuLIES.

The newest breakfast dollies are ex- tremely practical, either in the square or circular shape as they are large enough to hold the service for one person. Where four are to be seated, four squares large enough to meet at the corner are used. At a table for six the squares are somewhat smaller. Round centerpieces are used with the square doilies which are large enough to accommodate the service plate, sil- yer cup and saucer, tumbler and bread and butter plates, as well as the pepper and salt shakers.

w hat the Beauty Sc eker
 Ought to Know About COrsets
By LUCREZIA BORI The Famous Spa nish Prima Donna

Present-day fashions in corsets have women throughout the country be- cause they permit greater comfort, freedom and grace of movement than ever before. Although women are entering new fields of the worlds work each day, they still want to look their best. So corsetieres, rec ognizing the radical change in con- ditions, are manufacturing corsets to fit every figure and to meet every de- mand that fashions and modern hy- giene call for.
 The fashionable figure of today aims to be slight, youthful and graceful. The curve of the hips is very slight and there is only slight depression at the waistHne. The bust is extremely low, giving perfect freedom to the muscles of the dia- phragm. The skirt of the corset is long, with sufficient hose supporters to keep it in place. It is fashioned Of firm yet soft materials and is boned in such a manner that it af- lords perfect comfort. The woman

One of the new collars consists of a stock of black satin, unrelieved by any white to which is attached a big jabot of fine meshed eam-colored net, edged with lace. The effect is de- cidedly smart, although the absence of any white in the stock might not be well borne by some faces.
