Mrs. White Ruthlessly Re

New York dispatch to The Balti
re American Says: Disrobing
ces of the Salome stripe are mild
pared with the corset demonstra
ps given bY Miss Elizabetn A. C.
jte at the Dressmakers’ Conven
pin the Masonic Temple. Bou
ir secrets were revealed ruthless-
iHips must go,” said Miss White,
she held up a long corset, one of
ceason’s models. It looked as
it would reach to the average wo
p's knees, but Miss White assured
r hearers its set was ‘‘perfectly
gant. She added: ‘‘You can sit
wn in it, as the bones don’'t go
y to the edge, unless you get real
eap ones.”’
Miss White, ample in a Paris gown
at fitted her like a sheath, but
n't one, a collar up to her ears
d tight sleeves, moved across the
ge to show how graceful 300
unds may be, if garbed properly.
«Whep I went to Paris,” she be
p, “I had hips and they were
untains. ‘Goodness!’ said I, when
ey told me lines were stwaight
ere this season. But I pushed a
tle here, and I pushed a little
re, and now''—Miss White beam
ly stroked her sides—‘‘now I look
if they’d been shaved off.”
r Young Women “‘Terrible Fat.”
Four young women, of whom Miss
hite spoke as ‘‘terrible fat,” came
rward, intensely mnervous. Each
re shoes, stockings, side combs
d a white, frilly combination gar
nt which Miss White described as
“pew novelty.”
To be fashionable this season you
st be tall and be absolutely de
id of even a hint of a curve.
“A swell woman can’t have bumps
bhumps,” was the concise decree
Miss White.
“Come here, dear,” she called to
young woman who weighed some
ing from 200 up. “‘This is our
-year-old girl,” went on Miss
ite, as she smoothed the model’s
oulders and explained how the
h couléd be “picked up’” in front,
rked over the shoulders and
shed down the back. “The only
üble is you can’t get it quite
wn to yeur feet.”
How Can You Put Them On?
“What I want to know,” cried a
oman in the back row, “‘is, can you
it those corsets on alone?”
“I do it every day, and I guess
y woman can pick up her flesh
she's got any gumption, and push
into her corset,” replied Miss
ite, witheringly.
The feature of the new corset is
pair of garters attached to the
¢k, which fasten to the back of
e stocking, yet do not prevent the
arer from sitting.
Mirage Directoire gowns and the
west French winter gowns were
splayed in the afternoon session of
@ convention.
Dressmakers stared when two of
iss White's models appeared on the
ge gowned in the newest French
nter fashion.
“Volla!” with an air as if to say
e'd picked up that word in Paris.
here are no hips in this gown.

ere. No petticoat, no skirt, no un
relothes, no lingerie, no nothing.

Miss White Proved It True.
At that she grasped the lower part
the garment and raised it slightly.

women attired in the mirage gowns,
and stood like a ringmaster as the
young women tripped gaily up and
down the stage.
“You remember three years ago
I introduced the shirtwaist dresses
here, and since then women have
eaten, drunk, slept and lived in them.
Well, the directoire B§oWn promises
to take their place. The directoire
can be made to wear at any place at
all hours. Except for evening
gowns dresses will not be long.
American women have learned the
freedom of short skirts and they will
not submit to long skirts any more
for street wear.”
Another feature of the afternoon
session was the demonstration given
by a Hoboken inventor, who submit
ted for the approval of the dress
makers a small metal device which,
he said, would soon take the place
of buttons and hooks and eyes
throughout the civilized world.
According to his optimistic predie
tion his device, consisting of a chain
running between two lines of sock
ets with a ring at the top, will soon
be in general use and will bring
surcease of care to thousands of hus
bands.
“‘One pull on the ring,” said_the
orator from Hoboken, “and the dress
is buttoned or unbuttoned, hooked
or unhooked as the case may be.
Any child can operate the device.”
“Give me $5 worth,” said one of
his auditors, and others also pur
chased.
MIGRATORY RAIN BELT.
How It Has Changed Western Des
erts Into Farming Land.
‘“The rain belt? Why, it moves
oftener than a dead-beat renter.”
It was a Texan who was thus de
scribing the customs of the moist
area. D. E. Bryant, a lawyer of
Sherman, Tex., is at the Kupper
Hotel, says the Kansas City Star.
He has lived in Grayson county,
near Sherman, fifty-five years.
“When I first went to Texas from
Kentucky in January, 1853, the
country and climate were dry,” he
said. ‘‘Kansas was habitually dry.
In Texas the black loam of Grayson
county and the adjacent counties had
barely enough moisture to raise 2
poor crop. Now there has been too
much rain for the amount of tilling
and the depth of drainage.
“The change has been gradual,
just as it has been in Kansas. West
ern Kansas, which was once a desert,
is now just about right for agri
culture. The eastern end, which was
once just right, has been deluged in
late years. The rain belt has moved
500 miles west in the last fifty-five
years, and most of the moving has
been in the last twenty years.”
MR. DU PONT'S COMPENSATION.
What Head of Republican Speakers’
Bureau May Get.
From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Mr. Du Pont is head of the repub
lican speakers’ bureau for this ecam
paign.
Mr. Du Pont is head of the Du
Pont Powder Co., capital $50,000,-
000, which Mr. Roosevelt’s govern
ment is hotly prosecuting under the
anti-trust act. :
Should Mr. Taft be elected presi
dent will not Mr. Du Pont naturally
expect him to order a discontinuance
of this prosecution? Senator Platt
of New York teaches that a cam
paign contribution creates a moral
obligation to make a return og some
kind, either in immunity or a job lot
of legislation. The rule, of course,
applies for services rendered. Will
not Mr. Du Pont expect the benefit
of the rule?
Once Blind This Man Can Now

NEW YORK.—A blind man has

“YOU'RE LIAR,” SAID M'CORD
And Then Man Who Ran on Reform
Ticket in Atlanta for State Sen
ator Got Swatted in Eye.
There was an impromptu over
flow attraction at the Hearst-Graves-
Carter Independence meeting in At
lanta the other night, and the papers
of that city failed to tell of one of
its most interesting incidents.
Carl Hutchinson, a young lawyer,
formerly a newspaper man, made
some remark favoring Joseph M.
Brown, the democratic nominee for
governor, whereupon H. Y. McCord,
a prominent wholesale grocer, who
was a warm supporter of Gov. Hoke
Smith and ran for state senator
against Speaker John M. Slaton, in
that district, at the nrimary of June
4th., remarked that he was as good
a democratas any one, but that he
proposed to vote for Yancey Carter,
the Independent candidate as against
Brown. He said he did not feel
bound by the primary, and proposeu
to vote as he pleased.
‘““No man can be a good democrat
who refuses to support the primary
nominees,” Mr. Hutchinson re
marked.
“If you mean to say that I am not
a good democrat you are a liar,”
said Mr. McCord, with some show of
resentment.
Upon the remark Mr. Hutchinson
struck Mr. McCord a severe blow, and
as the latter recovered himself they
clinched. Friends who were standing
near by separated them, however,
before any further damage was done.

Governor of Indiana Charged for
Making Speech at Commencement.
l The governor of Indiana, it ap

ian address in June to the graduation
fclass of a manual training school in

the school board’s accounts were be
ing audited it was found that the

inothing unlawful about the trans

It’s an expensive economy. Even the horse becomes
ashamed of such a vehicle. We don’t sell that kind.
