Washington dshions
By WILMA LAVTLJ1E

Don't let the accompanying
sketch deceive you, for though
q rather slim woman is wearing
the foundation garment. 1t is
really designed for a woman Of
large proportions. And If you're
wondering how 1t happens that
we are illustrating another gar.
ment so soon when we've dis
cuSSed the problem Of correct
foundations for the new clothes,
you will understand when you
know the many good features of
this garment. 1t was so strongly
recommended that we inveStl.
gated. and considered the news
too good not to pass on. right
now. in spite Of the Christmas
gift rush.
TwO-Part Back
Every woman will. appreciate
this garment who Is large, and
at the same time must be active.
We've all had trouble with gar.
mentS that are fine when we
stand, but that rides up when we
sit, and then stay up when we
get up, making 1t necessary to
go through many graceless mo-
tions to get them down again.
This bad feature is eliminated
in the garment sketched by the
divided back. separated at The
waistline. No matter how much
you bend over and strain about,
the girdle doesn't ride up, and
the top section. though firm
and boned. comes back to its
natural position. There is a
splendid inner diaphragm con-
troll that not only keeps it in
place, but gives that smooth
line around the middle that is
so important this year. now
that all dresses have waiStlineS.
With New Length
You'll notice that the gar
ment is long enough, too, to do
something about the lower part
of the hips, in case you want
to wear a .ress that is rather
tight about the hipline. It
gives plenty Of freedom Of &C.
ton, and yet has control in
every important place. The bust
is of Swamee cloth. with only
a modified uplHt effect, as the
woman who takes a larger size
does not want to accent her
bust. This garment comes in a
choice of two materials, in satin
brocade with elastic side pieces.

PAY ROLL S[ASHES
FACE QUAKER CITY
Council President Proposes
to Cut All Salaries in
Excess of $1,000.

PHILADELPHIA, December 25 (P).-
Edwin r. Cox, president of City Council
said yesterday it appeared that reduc-
ton Of 10 per cent in salaries of city
employees receiving $1,000 or more a
year, excepting police and f1remen,
would be necessary.to keep within the
1882 budget.
The proposal was opposed by City
Controller Will Hadley, who insisted
that all of the efficient workers among
the citys 2l,763 municipal and 1876
county employees should be retained at
their present salaries.
Hadleys contention was based on the
announcement by Gov. Pinchct that he
would not veto two legislative bills Of
Senator Joseph C. Trainer of Philadel-
phia and one of Representative Grover
c. Talbot of Delaware County.
The Trainer measures authorize the
city to postpone payment of two loans
totaling $6,000000 until 1884. The
loans were for unemployment relief and
repleniShment Of the police and fire
pay rolls and were authorized by the
Legislature.
The Talbot bill provides 100000
for direct State unemployment relief
through municipal and county govern
mental units the citys share is about
s2500O00
City officials are endeavoring to cut
the 1882 budget schedule by $l1 100000
to bring it in line with the $88, ,445 1927
estimate of revenue next year at the

Photo by National Studio


Surely life teaches no lesson more
valuable than that sufferers profit
by the experiences of those who
found in this new medicine the very
remedy they needed for ills of the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels,
and for rheumatism, neuritis and
nervousness. Call on the Konjola
Man at the Hook Dependable Drug
Store, Illinois and Washington
streets, Indianapolis, and get all the
facts about the medicine that has
won a million friends. But right
now, before you do anything else,
read the words of Mr.. Charles j.
Burris, 1880 Roache street, this city,
who said to the Konjola Man:
For about two years I suffered
with indigestion, and kidney and
liver trouble. Gas formed in my
stomach shortly after eating, and I
had cramping pains of indigestion.
My back ached almost constantly,
and was forced to get up several
times every night. I had attacks of
biliouSnesS and severe headaches.
and my bowels were very irregular.
Friends induced me to try Konjola
and began to improve as I took
this medicine. I had to take sew
eral bottles, but I didn't mind that
for Konjola made my life pleasant,
and I strongly recommend Konjola
to other sufferers"
1t is what a medicine actually
does that counts: and Konjola can
be counted on for results.
The Konjola Man is at the Hook
Dependable Drug Store, Illinois and
Washington streets, indianapolis,
where he is meeting the public daily.
