TWO CAUSES FOR RETURN

{ TANABE, Japan, Sept. 15.-Still defying the series of misfortunes preventing him from flying across the Pacific, Bromley told the Rengo. News Agency reporter he would continue efforts to span the ocean to Tacoma by airplane.
 Bromley said a broken gasoline feed pipe was the decisive factor that caused him to turn back and he added:
 z Adverse clements also contribut- ed," to the decision.
 Break in Pipe
 The break in the gasoline feed pipe was noticed late Sunday off Kamchatka Peninsula. Gasoline began spraying him, chafing his face and inflaming his eyes.
 Gatty and Bromley alternated at the controls and both suffered great discomfort from the gasoline.
 A physician examined their eyes and found no permanent injury.
 Plane Flows in Dirt
 The plane escaped serious injury at landing but plowed into the dirt. It will take several days to dig the plane out.
 The fliers estimated that their gas supply would have lasted until they reached Dutch Harbor.

Well, after the fourth fitting,

women must have the strength of
mind to resist the inevitable-the
inevitable in this instance being
that the astute corsetiereS who
haven't been so very busy for the
last ten years are going to seize
what they concider the opportunity
that presents itself in the new
modes to pull us back into shape
agein-into their idea of what a
woman's shape should be. which it
just naturally generally isn't.
I don't care how heavy you are,
even though you shouldn't be, lac
ing tightly into corsets in an at
tempt to make your figure more
modish will have just the opposite
effect.
The modern woman's figure must
be neither uncorseted nor too cor
seted. Tight corseting makes it look
old-fashioned and old, no corset at
all makes it sloppy.
Let's figure these things out for
ourselves, why not, instead of let
