WheRe 4 Calico Strip
Makes a WOman's Dress

Human nature is not more I'M
changing than the dress modes af-
fected by the African native.
Let him who gibcs at modern civil
lied womans prediction for short
skirts and barred arms and shoulders
put this in his pipe and smoke 1t! In
Africa the most moral people gen.
orally are those who wear the least
clothing, says Major Raine in the
London Mail.
Until quite recently the Kavirondo
of kenya colony wore no clothes at
all. But at length the government
fiat went forth that this practice, or
nonpractice, must cease. Then each
woman obediently purchased herself
n length Of calico. that was worn
shawlwise. and that only when a
government officer was in the Vicin-
ity.
But the people who 10 wear clothes
are most conservative in their tastes.
The cloths. or robes, must always be
the same length, the same breadth
and of the same material.
No underclotheS are Worn. so that
an African husband is not called
upon to meet very high lingerie bills
contracted by his wife. As for
stockings, silk or otherwise. tribal
women do not wear them.

For years the price Of gasoline has
