THE CORSET.
Tho corset has held away, so it 1b
claimed, since about A. D. 910, and
nothing but the French Revolution
has ever for an Instant broken Its
hold on tho foniale sex. For about
two years during tho hoight of that
social orgy the garment waa aban
doned; then Franco relapsed onco
tnoro Into civilization and tho corset
j nio pulpit, tho medical profession,
roformors of all sorts and descrip
tions, have stormed and threatened,
I argUod and pleaded for tho nbandon
I mont of tho corset, but woman for
Bouio reason (may It not bo what wo
torm "Instinct"?) has tenaciously
clung to tho device which, until very
recent years, with tho Invention of
tho front lace, low bust corset, has
boon a most Injurious appllanco and
one undoubtedly productive of vast
harm to tho human race.
Thero la a reason for everything
nnd wo do not have to delve Into
tho mysteries of psychology or of any
other "ologlos" to locato the source of
woman's fondness for tho corset It
Is a matter of good sonse, of me
chanics, of gravity and balance What
wo term "Instinct" Is usually tho me
chanical following of the lino of least
resistance, tho lino of caso and com
fort. Woman Is moro comfortable In
tho corset, therefore sho will wear It
And It Is good for her to do so, too
provided It follows natural lines and
Is so adjusted that it will not displace
tho normal center of gravity.
Thero Is somethinc Intensely nb-
surd and Incongruous In tho fact thnt
our woman go to art galleries and
thero admire tho perfect form. They
buy boautlful bronzo nnd marblo fig
ures to adorn tho homo, and Invari
ably tho finest examples of art and
of beauty unadornod will bo found to
havo a waist 4C.7 per cont of the
hoight. But sho herself will crowd
hor own 40-lnch bust and 50-Inch
hips Into a 2G-Inch corset, not under
standing that tho effect is not only
grotosquo but that harmony Is the
good and tho beautiful and should be
lived personally, continuously every
day; it Ib not to bo bought In small
doses and admired from a dlstanco.
That is tho moasago tho artist la
striving to convoy to ua, and thla not
for art'a sako but for posterity, for
In thcBO contradictions llo tho root of
111 health and decay.
Tho uncivilized Individual may rest
when woary but tho clvlllzod may not
and hold his Job. Tho very rapid
change In industrial conditions makes
for an almost unlvorsal need for keep
ing tho trunk of tho body constantly
orect, eithor standing or sitting In a
chair, for nbout 16 out of tho 24
hours. Theso long orect houra, cou
pled with confinement In poorly venti
lated buildings, insufficient nutrition,
worry and other depressing causes In
cident to modern commercialism al
most too numoroua to mention, result
in an enervated muscular system. Tho
abdominal muscles relax, permitting
tho abdominal contents to Bag, result
ing In a condition known as enterop

means that the stomach and lntes

Taking typhoid fever aa a gaugo, lot
us compare condltlona In several parta
of tho world. Germany, with a popu
lation donBlty of 310.9 per square mllo
(mare than ten times greater density
than our own), had In tho samo pe
riod of time a typhoid death rato of
4.7, compared with our 23.5 per 100,
000 Inhabitants; tho Netherlands, with
458.8 density, a death rato of 5.4; Swit
zerland, with a density of 242.7, a mor
tality of 3.8, and England and Wales,
with a density of 372.G, a death rate of
only six per 100,000 inhabitants, com
pared with the United States with a
density of only 30.9 and a mortality
of 23.6.
The city of Chicago in 1891 had a
typhoid rato of 173.8 per 100.000 In
habitants. An Investment of $62,000,
000 (approximately $27 per capita for
tho population of tho year 1912) In a
drainage anal and tho adoption of
other reasonable aanltary precautions
reduced tho typhoid fover death rato
In 1512 to only 7.5 per 100,000 inhabit-,
ants, probably the lowest rato ever
recorded for an American city of more
than 500,000 inhabitants. Had tho 1891
typhoid rato prevailed In Chicago In
1912 there would havo been approxi
mately. 40,000 cases of typhoid fover.
with approximately 3,878 doaths; but
there woro only 173 deaths from ty
phoid fever In Chicago In 1912, henco a
probable saving of 3,705 Uvea for tho
city in that year.
Obviously this demonstrates what

Food In Scotland.
Now that tho Scottish holiday sea
son is Just about to begin thoro la a
controveray In the north as to tha
food provided by the boarding houa
keepers and landladies of Scotland
for tholr patrons from England. It
seems that tho Scots do not alter
their menus to suit tho southerners
and that somo of the southerners re
sent thla. They want moro vegeta
bles, for instance, and a greater va
riety of thorn. They demand turnip
tops (a luxury rarely consumed north
of the Tweed, savo by sheep), and
aak, "Why no aplnach?" Also they
want a heavy supper, likewise beer.
Tho complaining controversialists
say it is a case of ham and eggs for
breakfast, a midday dinner and a high
tea to conclude the meals of tho day.
Aa for beer, they report that Scottish
landladies at the coast rosorta look
askance at people who wish beer sent
in. So far tho only reply of Scotland
to tho fault-finders la that when they
are In Scotland they Bhould eat what
tho Scots eat and net their beer ont-
aide. London Chronicle.

"It Isn't steadiness and humdrum
