“A Pretty Woman in Faultless Attire is The
Noblest Work of Creation ’
But a pretty woman knows that faultless attire does not so much depend
upon the cost of the material as the corset over which it is worn.
There is the great secret—the corset. And in this day, when specialists are
working for woman's best results, the “fat” or “stout” women are by no
means in the “hopeless” class. •
The Rengo Belt Corset
Is a specially made Corset for those whose abdomens or hips or busts are large. The stout wo
man who wears The Rengo Belt Corset may be just as modemly proportioned as a much thinner I
woman. Ana wearing the Rengo Belt Corsets means pressure, and proper pressure, at necessary
points, which pressure* besides being confining, is reducing. In the end the Rengo Belt Corset puts
woman in the way of attaining that much desired thinness.
The Illustration
Shows the main points of advantage in the Rengo Belt Corset.
There is first the belt feature, a strengthening across the abdomen which absolutely prevents
any misshape there or about the hips.
Then there is the elastic belt feature, an elastic webbing let in the corset at a point well cal
culated to maintain a constant but gentle pressure at all times, thereby accomplishing the work of
reduction.
No Discomfort
There is no discomfort, in wearing The Rengo Belt Corset.
The lines ar? scientifically constructed, and contrary to what is expected of a confining and
reducing Corset, it is extremely comfortable at all times. Women who are wearing them constant
ly attest to tnls fact.

With the Georgia
Legislature
Atlanta, Ga. —The effort to remove
the state capital from Atlanta to Ma
con died a natural death yesterday
afternoon when the members who in
troduced it appeared before the house
committee and withdrew the bill from
further consideration.
The movement was begun several
years ago and created a great deal of
excitement throughout the state,
though Atlanta persistently declined
to grow worked up over the matter.
The house voted down a constitu
tional amendment to raise the pay of
its members from $4 to $7 a day. Mr
Miller, of Bibb county, was one who
urged the advance In salary.
A bill providing representation in
the legislature for five new counties,
those created this year and last, was
passed by the house.
Mr. Picquet of Richmond county
sprang a sensation when he made an
attack on representatives of the Anti-
Saloon league, declaring their lob
byists had failed to register and were
violating the rules by appearing on
the floor of the house. He asked the
speaker to order them off the floor,
and this was done at once. A sharp
dispute arose over Mr Plcquet’s reso
lution to keep the floor cleared of
those ineligible, and it was referred
to a committee for future action.
The failure of the salary raise 1)111 to
pass was due only to the law requiring
a two-thirds majority, as It received
82 votes to 7ti against it.
The senate defeated the McCrory
bill to have state text hooks printed
by the state after a debate which last
ed two hours and was marked by
rather sharp words on both sides. The
vote was 22 to 17.
The senate Indicated its displeasure

Called Homely Girl By Mistake
In the August Woman’s Home Com
panion appears "The Dove-Story of a
Homely Girl —As Told by Herself." In
the course of her narrative she tells
the, following story of an amusing ex
perience with a caller:
"While at a dance one evening 1
met a gentleman from Baltimore. He
w'fts a big, Jovial man who could make
anyone he met feel flattered Just by
his manner of being absorbed in the
one he was talking to. I was standing
at the far end of the room with one of
my friends, Anne Carroll, a very pret
ty girl, and he was introduced to us
lit the same time. He talked to me
quite a good deal after that and ad
dressed me once or twice as Miss Car
roll using my name in speaking of
Anne. I thought nothing of the in
cident, attributing it to confusion dur
ing the introduction and dismissed the
matter from my mind. A few days
• later I received a note from the gen
| Meman asking If he might call. I
I jpfis in a sudden fever of pleasure. His
i pgrionaltty had sttruitsd ms gtrong
j lyly. what if he could ? I did not
j dare to think further, it was all so
improbable. I answered his note and
ret a time for him to call. I shall never
forget the misery of that evening. I
had taken extra (tains with my gown,
had used every little art I knew in
an endeavor to he more attractive and,
as the usual result In such cases, I
suppose I appeared more dowdy and
unattractive than ever.
’'When 1 entered the room and held
V v : A V ■'

out my hand to greet him, nn expres
sion passed over lilh face that carried
to my heart like an electric shock the
full significance of the situation. Ho
had confused me with Anne Carroll!
“He bravely carried the tiling
through to the finish, hut I knew his
evening was spoiled.
“This incident sent me into a period
of deep depression and reserve, from
which I never wholly emerged. No one
hut a really homely woman can realize
what It means to go through an ex
perience of this kind In a small vil
lage where every move and every sen
timent is public property."
