"Lace' Front"
Corsets
Said Mrs. Redding, the expert corsetiere
who is with us this week, representing
the manufacturers, "they would have no
more need of a corset than would a
West Point cadet, but a woman won't,
and when a woman won't, well it's
L'Irresistible or a Gossard corset for
her." They are the only corsets' in the
world which compel the correct standing
position. When a woman stands cor
rectly, every part of her anatomy takes
its rightful place. The flesh relieved of
duress is naturally distributed ia grace
ful proportion. No matter what the fig
ure, it assumes its excellence of symme
try. Nature, not the corset, does this'
when given a chance. -,- .'

tively they are the only corsets in

'K SNOWED OX STEPPE.
Experiences 'of Winter Taveller on
Blverlan Railway,'
''"From the London Telegraph,
When winter sets In adventures by
rail . are frequent and the process of
"roughing it" Is trying. Often trains
are snowed up at little squalid stations
on the steppe, when the passengers can
get nothing but black bread and tea.
For hours? Aye, and for days. It der
rends en the authorities how long the
11 starred travelers- shall abide.
This year ; numerous trains ' were
caught in the snow, almost burled there,
and generally on the open steppe 60
or SO miles from a lemon and 160 miles
from a beefsteak. The passengers be
sought the station master and others to
have them dug out and to clear the line.'
They even telegraphed to the minister
of ways and communications, and re
ceived assurances that the order would
be given. It was given and disre
garded. . '
, Story telling and card -playing in the
flickering light of a candle were the
most serious occupations of the prison,
ers on the steppe. In one case tbst
came , under my knowledge "he' and
"she" met for the first time under
these uncommon conditions, fell in love
ever a sausage, a stale roll and half a
bottle Of wine, which he happened to
have, and they married shortly after
ward. Here is a copy of one of the tele
grams from snowed up r"lng'rs that
were sent thj season: "This Is the sec
ond day Uia we are kept by snowdrifts
here in the lonely station,': Pookhoro.
In spite of the energetlo telegram of
the minister of wars and eommuntra
tions the manager of the line baa taken
no efficacious measures. We . are
doomed to linger on here for an indefi
nite period." (Signed by the 'passengers
of the international wagon of the Ros-
ton issi train. j( Ana mey iinsjerea on
