"Ob. that this too. too solid flesh would melt!" It matters not; there are corsets to make you what you would be. not what you are. You, too, can be as gracefully shape ]y as the three charming models — 1 {•mall, medium «n) large—who in pic turesque uuattire of pink tights and 4vmdoir caps display the very la est thing in eorest and brassieres while Miss Dougherty describes their adjust ing. Miss Dougherty tolls you that every bit of superfluous flesh stays where it should stay, whether you sit or stan.l. "Yon pull in at the waist, pull up at the Jiips. leave plenty of space and venti a tion over the spine, tuck laeers so they cannot trail inadvertently and mortiiv ingly—and have comfort as we.l as '•stunning lines."

The new corset gives the appearance of waist by clever cut —a dip at the sides—with straight front and back but there is room for expansion by e.astics, reinforcing and extra lacing, and no possibility for compression which means big doctor bills.

A Cosmopolitan Audience To-day the interest shown was not limite to age. size or nationality. There was the white haired grandmoth er and the maiden of sweet sixteen. One of the most intent watchers was a b ■« ed. aged figure in a bUnket sh iwl and hood.

USING SOAP SPOILS THE HAIR Soap should be used very sparing ly, if at all, if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared shamjioos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is .just ordinary mulsified coccanut oil 1 (which is pure and greaseless), is . cheaper and better than soap or any- I thing else you can use. One or two teaspoonfuls will | cleanse the hair" and scalp thorough j Iv. Simply moisten the hair with | water and rub it in. It makes an i abundance of rich, creamy lather, | which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff I and excessive oil.

COAL WHARF PLAN FINALLY PASSES CMtlaued From First l*ase. with the City Treasurer to cover the cost of advertising the coal wharf ordi nance. Wanted to Hear Commission Both the Mayor aud Corgas said they personally are in favor of the coal wharf plan, although they added that "as we have a Planning Commis sion, i hat body, no doubt, has consid ered the ordinance and. as they are op posed to it. why not have them explain their reasous for not favoring it?" "It strikes me that they are not very aggressive in the matter of oppo sition," commented Taylor. The City Commissioners are of the opinion that this will be the first step toward abolishing the Market street coal wharf. Otaer concerns and con tractors now use the Market street wharf and it is believed that it will b." but a short time until they, too, will seek another pla -e to unload coal, probably the place at Paxton street. The Harrisburg Automobile Com pany was awarded the coutract for ,< two-ton anto truck for the City High way Department at its bid of $2,275. liynch recommended this firm because it was the lowest of the bidders that qualified Both he and Mayor Royal said, however, that they preferred to give the contract to the Morton Truck and Tractor Company, a local firm, which bid $2,400. Contract Given for Mains The Mayor offered to amend Lynch's recommendation so that the local firm would be awarded the contract, but the amendment is not permitted and the Lynch plan was ad opt id by a vote of 4 to 1. the Mayor opposing. The con tract for laying sewer mains in Second street. Market square and Market street from Front to the subway was awarded to William H. Opperman at his bid ot f5.137. Opperman was the second lowest bidder, the lowest pro posal having been sent in by David R. Klder, of Hlizahethville. who bid $7,643. However, Elder had failed to fur nish the required bond, to guarantee the completion of the job. Lynch has referred the Elder bid to City Solicitor Seit/. "for action." It has not yet been determined, l.ym h said, whether suit will he brought by the city against Klder for tbe difference between his and the Opperman bid, something like SSOO which the city will have to lose. Jack nn,i Hcimbinder Gold, who re cently leased the '•Family'' and "Wil lim Peun" moving picture theatres protested to the Commissioners against the city's claim for a mercantile li- cense tax levied against them. The theatre men only recently leased the play houses, on which the former owners paid the mercantile tax and the Gold Brothers now claim that they should not he required to pay another tax for t lie five weeks ending on April 1. The Commissioners took tie matter under advisement. No Ordinances Introduced To Highway Commissioner Lynch wa« referred a jn'tition signed by twenty four South Nineteenth street residents who are protesting against the bad condition of the sidewalks on that street, between Oiestnut and Mulberry. For fhe first in many months not a single ordinance was introduced at to-day's meeting. Ordinances passed finally included one providing for lav ing several water mains, regulating the filing of checks and bonds with con tractors' bids and laying sewers in Derrv and Carlisle streets.

SPECIALIST EXPLAINS CAUSE OF STOMACH TROUBLE Valuablt Adv.ci to Sutterers "There are many different forms of stomach trouble," said a well-known specialist recently, "but practically all are traceable to excessive acidity and food fermentation. That is why the re sults obtained from the use of drugs are usually so disappointing. Admitting fermentation and consequent acidity of the food contents to be the underlying cause of most forms of indigestion, it naturally follows that the use of a re liable antacid, such as the pure blsur ated magnesia which is so frequently prescribed by physicians, will produce better results than any known drug or combination of drugs. Accordingly I al most invariably advise those who com plain of digestive trouble to get some btsurated magnesia (note the name carefully, as other forms are unsuit able for this purpose,) from their drug gist, and take from one to two tea spoonfuls of the powder, or two 5 grain compressed tablets, with a little water after meals. This by immediately neu tralizing the acid and stopping the fer mentation. removes the cause of all the trouble and Insures normal and healthy digestion."—Adv. > f f f Tff fyTy?y?ytyyyrtf f f tyf yty'TTTTfyTTyf t~t> w ?Tf ?»»' fijoamcnM Call 1991—Any Phone Founded 1871 ' Now in Progress- < A Demonstration of " Wear-Ever" ■ A/ummuw Of special interest to every housewife (and future housewives) as well as to students of Domestic Sci- < ence, to see Miss Searight, of aluminum fame, and who knows every possibility of this famous cooking- < ware, demonstrate in actual cooking and baking, the merits of Wear-Ever Aluminum.

FIRST SPRING FLOWERS An evidence that spring is rapidly ' approaching is manifested in the bloom ing of the hepatica, the first spring flowers, of which two cases have so fa l I been reported in this city. The first to report seeing the flow ers was Harry Koons, a |>ostal clerk j residing at 14 06 Derry street, who dis -1 covered some on the mountain north of j Harrisburg last Tuesday. The other case is that of I>r. John 11. Fagcr, 1234 J North Sixth Htreet, who came across some while on a jaunt in Wildwood Park last Friday. The flower is commonly known by many as "liver work," believed to be a cure for that disease. Another sig nificant feature from whence it derives the name is the shape of the leaf, which j resembles a liver.
