HENDERSON Habit Back LOCAL AND PERSONAL. Corsets “ FRO N T LA CED ” H E front laced models are the culminatiou of the latest and best ideas in corset fashion. They re model the figure, giving it a perfectly moulded back, giving it lines of grace aud symmetry and the long, ta- periug curves which are so artistically beautiful. They reduce the full figure, giving it the flattened front aud slender hip effects, 'they are absolutely hygienic aud have the endorsement of the leading physicians and dressmakers. We call special at tention to the model illustrated which is made iu two lengths, high bust, for the tall figure, and medium bust, for the shorter waisted stout figure. This model is extremely long over the back and hips. The extra lacing in the back from the waist-liue down permits an absolutely perfect adjustment over the back and assists further iu keeping the hips iu perfect subjection, thus giving the so-called hipless figure. We carry the front laced corsets iu a varied line of materials at prices ranging from $2..SO to *12. We cordially invite the ladies of our city and vicinity to visit our corset depart ment aud inspect these most exquisite models. Consultation and fitting free. T Rees-Wallace Co. W H E R E Y O U DO B E T T E R Bad Fire Narrowly Avarted. Sunday evening at about eleven o'clock a fire alarm was turned iu and the fire laws responded promptly. The fire originated in the Porter Bros, brick upstairs over the Griffin, Yeatch Hardware store and Pearce & Shepardson's grocery. The fire seemed to have started iu the closets used for stor ing wood by the teueuts upstairs— I)r. Oglesby, Attorney Johnsou and Dentist Ingram. Iu one of these closets was found a pine box half filled with ashes, which had been removed from a stove and it is possible that a live coal may have started a fire iu this box. At any rate the flames had crept up in the walls and into ihe attic be tween the ceiling and roof, filliug the entire upstairs with a dense black smoke before it was detect ed. The new chemiele engine was put to work, two streams of water were turned on and the flames were soon under control, but not before the lower stores were given a thorough soaking, re sulting iu several hundred dollars damage to goods in the grocery and hardware store, with also con siderable damage iu the offices up-stairs. The fire adjusters are here today and an estimate of the damage will soon be made. This has been considered one of the best bricks in town and little was thought of a fire originating in this quarter. An amusing spectacle the morn ing after the fire was a fine display of liquid refreshments, being re vealed in one of the closets from which the door had been tom during the course of the fire and it was casually remarked that this quarter ‘‘seemed to wet to bu m .” ■ New "■ Furniture • i Store. |.
