MODERN MODES NOT IMMODEST JSxpert Says Fashions Judged by Present Standards. LONDON, July 20.—“ There la nothing; immodest in present-day dresses,” the principal of a well-known dressmaking establishment declares to the Globe,. ‘‘Fashions today,” be said, “judged by present-day standards, are not more Immodest than were those of any other see. when judged by the standards of that age. ‘‘lt is Tery seldom.” lie continued, "that the same creation will suit two women. “A dress worn by one person might not evoke the slightest thought of impropriety, while if worn by another It would Immediately become suggestive. "Perhaps the churchmen who have been a trucking styles have come across people who did not wear dresws particularly suited to their style of beauty, and the minds of these men. instinctively realizing that something was wrong, hut at the same time not understanding what it was, Immediately concluded that tbe dresses were Immodest." ' “Again.” the designer added, “if a ■woman is endowed with a perfect pair of shoulders and arms, why should sh“ hide them or try to Improve upon the •work of nature with man's artificial substitutes?” Realizing that there was perhaps another than the artistic side to the question. the Globe representative turned to the commercial aspect of the dressmaking business. The manager interviewed here, however. ms only able wisely to say that "the women of today must want the' short dpegs and the bare back, otherwise bow would It be possible to sell such fashions?” "Everybody.” b declared, “has a distaste for something or other. Personally, 1 newer smoke, and I dislike seeing women smoke their after-dinner <igaref. “I know, however, that if a woman wants anything all the protests in the world will not stop her from haring it. and it is only our duty to anticipate her wishes In the matter of clothing. “Woman wants the type of dress which hss been called immodest, though in reality It Is only so when Judged by tbe■tandards of another generation.” TENTATIVE AID PROMISED‘WOMEN Council to Investigate South Side Market Possibilities. Support In the establishment of permanent south side market in the old Shelby street car barns, near Virginia avenue, was promised by members of the city council last night to members %f the South Side Women's club, providing an investigation by council show the necessity of such a market. President Gus Schmidt appointed a committee of Councilmen Jacob F. Brown. Louis W. Carnefix and William B Peake to investigate the possibilities of the establishment of a south side market. Mr, Brown told members of the club, who have been fighting for the establishment of the market, that he would try to make the investigation jn time to have a public hearing some time during the last of the week. Mrs. M. L. Reiffel. president of the club, made a plea for the establishment of a permanent market to be run by the city. Councilman Willson asked whether she thought it would be wise for the city to establish another permanent mar- j ket and If the south side market were established there would not be a possibility of the people of West Indianapolis, Irvington and the north side asking the same favor. Mrs. Reiffell replied that she thought the city should establish these markets also. SUGGESTS VOX F. ADDITIONAL MARKETS. She said there should be at least fonr markets within the limits of the city, in addition to the central market. This, she said, would make competl- j tion in the markets and would be a big , factor in the reduction of prices. Mrs. Reiffel said the central city mar- j ket is "reaping a golden harvest” for j the standholders, to which statement President Schmidt agreed. She contended that the women of the south side are not onry asking the establishment of a south side market foi its convenience, but that they are as*, ink it because they know it will bring down the price of foodstuffs. She contended that the central city market has too many commission men and not enough producers selling. A report on the markets that are being held by the South Side club shows the-* people are in faTor of the movement, Mrs. Reiffell said. Investigation of the conditions prevail- , Ing at the central market was scheduled j for this week, but actioh ha3 been de- ; f>rred until the next meeting of the council. Records In the office of the board of j public safety show that the old South Side market, which was conducted in the old Shelby street car barns, was established In August of 1599 and that it was discontinued sometime in 1901, after it was found unprofitable. A report of June, 1901, shows receipts from the market to the city amounted to W 55.36. Bouth side women contended the old market was a success and that the producers and consumers were using it at the time It was abandoned, but that the reason for Its discontinuance was a change In the administration. At the present time the barns are used by the street cleaning departmen . PUBLIC HEARING MONDAY NIGHT. A public hearing will be held Monday night in the council chamber on the ordinance recently introduced by Councilman Carnefix making North Meridian street from the Monument to Fall creek a south-bound thoroughfare from 7 o'clock a. m. until noon and a northbound thoroughfare between noon and 7 o'clock p. m. Mr. Carnefix said the committee on the city’s welfare is considering amenddIng the ordinance to make Meridian street between the Monument and Fall creek a north-bound thoroughfare and Capitol avenue a south-bound thoroughfare. An ordinance was passed under suspension of the rules prohibiting the building of garages and filling stations within 160 feet of hospitals, within the fire limits of the city and within 400 feet of hospitals within the city property limits. . j After adjournment an executive session was held behind closed doors at which Dwight S. Ritter, city purchasing agent, was present. ' K was rumored the council took up some matters with Mr. Ritter regarding bids submitted several months ago for providing motorized equipment for the fire department. It Is understood some members of j A HEALTHY.

Indeed, In comparison to tfc“ obi way, Ihe cobl pack method Is quite simple and f:>r less laborious for the results it brings, Just as the electric washing machine has made easy ber task of the weekly washing for the family, so has the cold pack method of canning saved her hours of exhausting labor over a hot fire. In the fall, when the first winter winds blow, she can look at her shelves with their rows of glass jars containing the luscious fruits, vegetables and relishes of the summer months. In the winter, when the snow Is on the ground, she can open those Jars, and bring back to the minds of the family the glorious days In the summer when these very articles were fresh from the garden. “Can with sugar if you can get It; can WOMAN S ROTARY MEETS ON FARM Contests and ‘Sing* Features of Evening.

that certain syrups can ho substituted, doin£ the preservative work as efficiently as the sugar. s The high cost of sugar, as well as its scarcity, no doubt has deterred many women from doing their own canning, being doubtful US to (lie oub-ouie. j Others have said ih:;t they could nil j oi.ti.iii the product except at a prohibitive price.

Nearly every home has a bit of landmark about the house that, as they explain \x T hen they offer it to some close friend, ‘‘isn’t much for looks, but it’s long on comfort.” Perhaps that’s the reason that the comfortable pieces are usually the shabbiest, because they are used so much.
