The uncomfortably-corseted woman does not enjoy
a good figure in any sense of the word. In addition to
the discomforts involved, a tightly-laced figure presents
the appearance of being dressed-up," not well-dressed.
Millions of fashionable women know from actual
experience that the CBm It Splrlte Corset imparts to any
form a graceful and symmetrical contour without a sug
gestion of physical distress or artificial appearance.

OMAHA, April lO.-To the Editor of The
Bee: In the Herald of April 7 I notice a
letter from K. B. Howell replying to the
letter written by Q. W. Shield. In this
letter Mr. Howell criticise Shield for (a
he put it) getting too explicit Information
a to the cost of needed extensions. Howell
hint that Shield may have gotten hi In
formation from Superintendent Hunt, but,
mark you, ha doe not say that Shield'
figure are not correct. He only throw out
a slur a to where he got hi Information.
Further on Howell say the Income of the
water company I about SHO0.O0O. Doe he
(Howell) alio get till Information from
Superintendent Hunt? If ao, It la likely to
be somewhere near correct. Or does he
(Howell) guess at this, as he ha done be
fore In hi estimate given to the public.
Flat For Instance, Mr. Howell assured
the taxpayer of Omaha that the plant wa
not worth mora and could ba acquired for
$3,000,000, which must have been false, since
he la now advocating the purchase of the
plant at S8.363.0ti0.
Second Mr. Howell proclaimed from the
housetops that the water company wa
fighting hi compulsory purchase bill, which
wa absolutely false, a they were helping
to push It along, and Howell knew It.
Third Mr. Howell assured the public that
the water company would not appoint an
appraiser when the city appointed Ita ap
praiser and requested the water company
to appoint one to represent It. This wa
also false, for the water company appointed
It appraiser Immediately after being re
quested to do so by the city.
Fourth Mr. Howell told the taxpayer
that the water company would fight the
Issuing of the 16.600,000 bond to complete
the purchase, and he 1 still telling them
so. This, Ilk all hi other statements, la
false, a the water company haa It hire
ling already boosting up sentiment favor
ing the voting of these SS.BOO.O'O bond. Could
the bondholder of the Omaha Water com
pany have handled the whole deal any bet
ter for themselves than Mr. Howell has
handled It for them? Haa any action of
his been for the benefit of the city? f it
1 true that the plant la worth W,500,000,
which ha now want us to vote, why are
the Water board lawycra paid to fight the
purchase. WILLIAM HAYS,
. f! Kansas Avenue.

Spring merchant excursion to Omahn
closed Saturday, and L. Bellman, secretary
of the Jobbers and Manufacturers associa
tion announces that the number romlng
to Omaha to buy thl spring exceeda the
number last year by 20 per cent.
Not only In numbers, but In the amounts
bought, the record show an Increase. The
plan of the Jobber and Manufacturer
association make It possible to tell almost
to a dollar what certain number of mer
chant buy in Omaha, a they get S per
cent rebatea and It I all handled by the
secretary of the assocttlon.
Easter trade wa good and a number will
be back In the market within few day
to fill out lines. Some lines have been
low In coming; forward to Jobber and
many retailer bought with the Idea of sup
plying the Easter trade and returning later
to grt full summer line. Thla will be the
order In many Instances.
Retailer came from further points than
ever before, the trade from Wyoming and
Montana being especially heavy. A big
bnslneea wa also received from South Da
kota and along the new line of the Mil
waukee and St. Paul from MUes City to
Evart, 8. D.

Boats to Head
of Navigation
Steamers Will Be Run hy the Kansas
City Company Both North
and South.
That the $1,000,000 river transportation
company being organised in Kansas City,
with Walter B. Dickey at the head, will
run a fleet both north and south waa tho
new which Omaha shipper received Mon
day. It is said the boat will be running
early In the summer and go north aa far
a the head of navigation.
With the freight rate 86 cent per 100
pound from St. Louis to Omaha on first
class merchandise, Omaha shippers have
little hope of getting lower rates because of
the boat line, but believe the opening of the
river even to the small fleet will relieve
freight congestion In time of heavy traffic.
The Kanaaa City boats are to have steel
bottom which will cost 160,000 to 175,000
each and carry 750 tons. They have made
known their plan to run horth. carrying
heavy merchandise Into North Dakota and
Montana from St. Ixiuls, Kansas City and
Omaha.
