See and Feel Yourself in a
MODART
There is only one way to truly
appreciate the style, comfort
and poise of a MODART Cor
set, and that is to have a trial
fitting.
The designer of MODART Cor
sets is considered foremost in
the world of corsetry.' No other
corset can claim his skill. Every
design originated by this style
creditor must meet his approval
as an anatomist also.
The result is a corset that gives
you the satisfaction of the
smartest style and the assur
ance of health and comfort. The
MODART jrives lines that are
chic, distinctive, graceful, yet al
lowing free and easy respira
tion. It can be adjusted to the most
minute requirements of individ
ual figure lines. It affords a
gentle, uplifting support nt all
times.
Health, comfort and fashion
urge a MODART fitting.

Fortunes In Farthings.
It ts well known that shopkeeper
make pounds by Ignoring fundings or
by giving something for them that Is
worth far less than a furtulng, but
where shopkeepers nuika tho pounds
banks and ihn Kngllsh govornmeut
make their hundreds of pounds. If a
farthing Is duo from you in taxes yon
are charged onoprnce. On the other
hand, you are never paid oncjieiice for
a farthing.
The same principle Ik applied to frac
tions of pounds. Hanks In reckoning
Interest for themselves call any part
of XI a full pound, whereas In reckon'
ing Interest for you odd shillings are
left out of account. Thus for n de
posit of 09 tls. lid. you wou'rt receive
Interest on fOO only.
. It Is ninujiliig how the slate profits
by not paying fractions of pence.
The government has a .special fund
In which are placed the fractions of
pence withheld In paving dividends on
government stock. This fund amount
ed to more than flfiO.OOO In ten years
before being used for other purposes.
As far as the government Is concern
ed, farthings mean a lot. Loudon An

There weto some Interesting episodes
In tho life of Sir Charles Kuan-Smith.
Once In the market place of an Af
ghanistan town he was tired at by
native. ITo lodged a compl with
the ameer, who appeared to take no
notice of the incident, -merely remark
ing, "That's all right." Sir Charles
complained again and met wltn tha
same reply. Ho still thought that the
ameer "was treating a serious matter
with less consideration than It deserv
ed, but thought, it advisable to say no
more on tho subject. About a week
afterward he was Invited by tho ameer
to ride with him. They rode for some
distance outside the town, and they
passed gibbet after gibbet. At length
Sir Charles said, "Your highness has
been busy of late." "Oh. no." replied
the ameer; ".(hey are your, little lot."
He had seized all the members of the
would be assassin's family and hanged
every one of them,
Be Natural.
Iluluies says that there are six peo
ple present whenever two meet In con
versation the real A, the real K, A ns
he sees himself, B ns be sees himself,
A as R sees him and B as A sees him.
The remark comes back when oiu
goes out upon the street and considers
himself and tho other people who pass,
particularly those who seem on the
slippery mad to success. It is not they
themselves who go by; It Is what they
would have other people think them.
If they are young and inexperienced
they must tighten 111 their faces with
an artificial solemnity; If they are get
ting on in years they must affect an
arlllicial suapplness. They wear their
outward aspects like clothes.

young men: "Bo natural. Live or die,
sink or swim, survive or perish, but be
yourselves." New York Globe.
Tho Pri.tnroae.
The primrose has sulTercd injustice
from the pools, who seem to regard it
as a Moral weakling. Shakespeare
wrote of "pale primroses" that die "era
they can behold bold Phoebus in bis
streugth;" Spencer regrets "so fair a
flower" should perish through "untime
ly tempest;" Milton laments the "rathe
primrose that forsaken, dies," and
many later poets huvo written of It In
similar strain. Why' For the prim
rose Is a hardy plant and will be found
where1 few other flowers can exist, on
the mountain heights of Europe and
Asia and even on the highest ranges of
the Himalayas. And Disraeli recog
nized its color in the fried eggs upon
his breakfast table. London Notes and
Queries.
He' Waa Right.
A man rushed to the entrance of a
lunatic asylum in the middle of the
night and yelled to the keeper to let
him in.
"Let me in!" be cried. "1 have sud
denly gone insane."
The keeper woke up, thrust his head
out of a first story window and bel
lowed down in a rage:
"Whut? Come here at this time of
night? Man, you must be crazy!"

MAGNATE IS IN ARREARS !
Wife Says She Found Husband in An
other Woman's Home
Chicago, May 1. Walter E. Kirk
patrick, ex-vice-president of the Chi
cago Title & Trust Company, now a
traction magnate of Kansas City Mo.,
was accused recently of another
charge in a supplemental bill filed by
his wife, Mrs. Florence E. Kirkpat-
nck, in the Superior Court. Etta Lee j
is named by M,rs. Kirkp.-.trick, who al
leges she found her husband and the
Lee woman together in the former's
home in Kansas City when she went :
there to tiy to effect a reconciliation.!
Kirkpatrick, the bill Ftates, was for-!
merly secretary and treasurer of the i
Metropolitan Street Railway Com-!
puny of Kansas City, Clay County
St. Joe Intel-urban Railroad. I
He owns property worth $100,000 1
Mrs. Kirkpatrick said, and received i
$54,000 compensation from the rail-j
road. She asks the eustody of h-?r '
two children, Walter Jack Crocroft
Kirknatrick, 3 years old, and Gloria,
4 years old.
Mrs. Kirkpatrick charged her hus
band with seizing her by the throat
and choking her when she visited him
in Kansas City. He also threatened
hor life, she said. The bill also set
forth Kirkpatrick is $1000 alimony in
arrears since December, 1912. She
said she was forced to mortgage her
home at 6-'IH0 Sheridan road to ob
tain money to live.
Mrs. Kirkpatrick firt sued her hus

order for $250 a month temporary ali-

residence at fi!t!!0 Sheridan road. She
also -h-ud an income of $150 a month
j of her own,
But her husbnnd didn't keep up his
payments, so sho went into court and
obtained judgment for $1500 for the
j period from August, 1914 to July,
1015, inclusive. A judgment for
1 600 is for payments due from Feb-
I runr, 1915 to March, 1916, exclusive.
