WJO<WCKS<H3<KKHJOISB HOW TO SAVE MONEY WHEN SHOPPING By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN CKKHSO<S<HSOOOOO<KXSOOOOOOOOOO (®, 1»»2. Harland H. Alton.) THE RIGHT CORSET If you still wear ’em, it is Important that you should, know tile kind of corset you can wear with greatest comfort, and the kind that gives you the best lines. There are recognized to be nine types of women to be fitted with corsets, and all up-to-dute corsetlerres now provide for these types. They are: (1) The short, slender figure; (2) The tall, slender figure; (3) The short wnlsted USnret (-1) The short, heavy figure; (0) The tall, heavy figure; (6) The fjtJl-hlp figure; (7) The full-bust figkuv; (8) The swayed baek figure; and (0) The normal figure. Here are a few suggestions as to the kinds of corsets Unit are best for ydur build. W you have a short, slender ogure, 4'hvose a corset moderately short, light In weight, atid with few stays. The same holds for the tall, slender figure, with , the added caution that the* corset must be long enough over the hips to give an unbroken line. Never wear a corset too tight, as this only makes a slender woman appear more slender. For the short-waisted figure, the corset should be fitted rather loosely, and worn well down on the figure. Be sure that the corset is short enough below the waist line in front. The short, heavy figure requires a corset with short stays, to prevent •'hitching” up when the wearer sits down, thus making her appear shorterwaisted than ever. It you are tall, inclined to the heavy figure, wear a corset with a very long skirt. Let the length come At the back and sides, however, keeping it short in front. A corset that is too k tight on a large woman will cause her to appear to be ‘'all corsets.” The full-hip figure has the same problem, and the corset must be long ami well-boned over the hips. Several strong elastics are necessary to fasten the corset to hose. Do not wear corset tight in an attempt to reduce size of hips, or termination of the corset will show, giving an ugly Hue. For the full-busted figure it is generally more satisfactory to wear lowbusted corset and confine tin- extra flesh in a well-fitting brassiere. The swayed-back figure takes an ordinary corset, and where the back is very much curved, a small corset-pad its attached to the Inside of the corset where t.eeded. If you have the happy perfect figure, you have only to choose the correct size for your waist, and a comfortable length ami weight. A size two inches smaller than your ordinary measurement Is the general rule. i.>XvuOCKKKK><KK>tKK>OCnX>OCiSK)O HOW TO SAVE MONEY WHEN SHOPPING • MRS. HARLAND H.

CO BUY A GOOD COMB The difference in the wearing qualities of the different grades of combs may be a bit of new and useful information to tlie shopper. There is a wide range in the quality of Hiese goods. But what is hardest for most of us to believe, is that these differences are not due to the different grades of celluloid used, but in most instances to the coloring matter used, the method of manufacture, and the way the article is finished.. There are three types of combs, the sawed tooth, cut tootii, and the molded or pressed. The sawed tooth combs are the best to buy. Tills Is because of the method of manufacture. In cutting the teeth, the saw goes straight to the base of the tooth, and thus gives a rectangular opening at the base. In the cut tooth comb, two combs are made at once, and one set of teeth comes out of the space between the teeth of the other comb. This makes the openings wedge-shaped. Medium-priced combs are generally molded. It is difficult to distinguish them from cut combs, but they are lighter in weight. When buying a comb, then, it is always wise to look carefully at the base j of the teeth. If the openings are square, and the teeth are about the same distance apart at the base and 1 nt the point, it is a sawed tooth comb. When tlie openings ase wedge-shaped, you are looking at a cut tooth or molded comb. You pay more for a sawed tootii comb, because it takes as much labor to make one of that type as It does two of tlie cut variety, but the satisfaction of using one justifies the difference in cost. You will notice tlie difference In the way the hair catches and pulls while sliding through the wedge-shaped openings of the cut eotnbs, while' It passes easily and smoothly through the square openings of the sawed tooth kind. Most cheap combs have the. tootii at one end spreading out a little from the rest. Tills happens in the process of manufacture, and is bent into shape , somewhat when the comb Is finished, but a little bulge can always be detected. This will help you to distinguish a medium-quality comb. The better grade combs are “gralied"; that is, tlie corners of th. teeth are shaved off to prevent dirt lodging at tlie base. I

According to the story given by the ; young man. he had drawn his entire j savings, amounting to exactly S4OC front the Citizens bank at Fort Wayne ; Monday preparatory to taking an j early train for the west. As he walk,; ed from the bank he noticed a mar. ! suspiciously following him, but never . suspected that a robbery would be attempted in the middle of the after-■ noon on the busy streets of the city, i Less than a block from the bank a ■ Buick automobile drew up alongside i the curb, the man who was following 1 rushed forward, threw him into the back seat and then sped away. Nine: miles from the city, he was robbed and j thrown out of the car. He walked back to town and report- ] ed the robbery to the police who he said are investigating. A call to the ' Fort Wayne police department this afternoon brought no new word on the i case. Pusey has been working in the Fennsy shops at Fort Wayne but had resigned his position, expecting to go ■ to the west. He expects to remain in Bluffton at present. — Boys Break Into Adams County Equity Building Two boys, age about twelve years, broke into the Adams County Equitv Exchange building shortly before noon today. They were seen in the building and Chief of Police Joei Reynolds was notified. The two boys, a Bailer boy and Clarence Roop, were located on Eighth street.

STATE ASKS FOR I • PROPERTY VALUE - Tax Commissioners Request Auditors To Send Valuations From Counties Looking toward a fixing of the state tax rate for next year, tlie state board , of tax commissioners have called on county auditors to provide the latest ! figures showing the amount of tax aide property in each county. Martin Jaberg. auditor of Adams county, in reply to the request of the ’ state board, sunt the tentative veinI ation of the county of $41,013,310.00. Mr. Jaberg is now preparing the tax ] duplicate ami when that is completed the exact figures will be known. Last year the amount of taxable property in the state was found to b< $5,225,692,395 and the state rate was fixed at 27 cents on SIOO taxable I property. John J. Brown, chairman of the tax hoard, said it is too early even tc make a good guess as to what th> now tax rate will be. Some person are predicting that the rate will b> about the same as last year. • A few optimistic ones say the rate may b< slightly lower, but most prophets: predict an increase of several cents. Division of Levies The present rate is made up of th* following state tax levies: For the state general fund. 2 cents taxes sot cn<h SIOO of taxable property; be r< volent institution fund 8 cent* state highway find. 3 cents and teachers' pension fund. ’A cent; com mon school fund. 7 cents; three bir state educational institutions' fund 5 cents; Purdue University agricul tural experiment station fund. 2-5 o' a cent: vocational education, % of r cent: world war memorial. 3-5 of r cent, total 27 cents. The tax board. Governor and and’ tor fix the levies for the general fund benevolent fund, highway fund and •teachers' pension. The others an fixed by the legislature and wil’ stand unchanged. Two levies create, by the state rate. They are a levy i, of a cent for the Indiana board for the dunes parg project. State Debt Considered Robert Bracken, state auditor, has said the general fund levy must b< increased several cents, if the stat, debt incurred in the last year and a half is to be paid next year. He has 1 said the benevolent institution fund .levy can be increased a few cents be i cause, he has pointed out. some of th, i money raised by the present 8-cent \ levy has been going into the genera' [fund. The general understanding at jthe time the last legislature provided I she highway department with a state i gasoline tax and with a doubling of i automobile license fees was that the highway levy would be reduced. The ! teachers’ pension fund trustees now have an expert making a survey tc ■determine what the pension levy should be to meet the demands on it ’ Some are predicting that the levy ■ must be doubled. Governor McCray promised a redue ! tion in the highway levy and he said recently that he will do everything he can to prevent the state rate, which is the total of the state levies, from 'going higher. He said he should like ;to find away to reduce them. State i expenses, however. Yave increased in such away as to cause some who are j familar with state affairs to be pes I simistic about the possibility of much if any, dpcroase in the state rate. o Quarterly Conference At Clarks Chapel Sunday Tlie members of the Mt. Tabor M. E. Sunday school will go to Clark's Chapel Sunday to hear Dr. W. W. Martin, district superintendent, deliver bir. sermon. The members will remain at the church and enjoy a basket dinner, after which Dr. Martin will conduct the quarterly conference. The pastor expects every member to attend and urges everyone to bring a basket filled with eats and to come and enjoy the day. He Got It In Decatur An elderly gentleman, who gave his name as a Mr. Watts, was found in the streets in a drunken condition I Monday night, with his clothing soak■ed by-the rain. He was taken to the town lock-up. where he was held about ■an hour. later in tlie evening his wife and a friend of his appeared at ; ' the town hall and obtained his re- , lease, taking the drunken man with ' ' them. They left that night for AshIley. Indiana. Mrs. Watts stated that | she thought her husband had gotten some liquor at Decatur during the afj ternoon while they stopped at that ’ place while enrouse to Berne. —Adams [County Witness. I.
