IN THE WOMAN'S WORLD.

What They Are Doing Little Things of Interest.

THE WOMEN OF JAPAN.

A Marked Change of Domestic Conditions In Mikado's Country. Jdme. Takahira, wife oi the Japanese embassador to the United States, In tn interview recently corrects much misinformation current In this country about the political and social conditions of the women of Japan. "The vomen of Japan," she Is quoted as paring, "are not under the restraint they were many years ago. Our ancestors could scarcely understand the changes which have come. Formerly the women 'Of my country were not acquainted with the privileges which were given to others, but all that Is bunged uow. We go about almost as we please, and we even go to theaters and to entertainments more often than our husbands. "I am exceptionally fond of music, tut when I went to school we could tnly learn Japanese music, as it was taught by our own people. We did not then have the advanta.ee of learning the piano, the violin and other instruments which it is now possible to master. "Our schools then, as Indeed they are jjow, were conducted by native teachers, but were conducted along Eureka n lines. With the years advancement has come to our school system, as it has to those of other countries, and it is now possible for our boys and frtrls to, have many more advantages than formerly, "A Japanese bride owes much to her husband, and there are certain what you call tbem?--commandments which She must obey, but all marriage services have those, I believe, and ours are Dot bo etrict, not as much so as they were years ago, 'Our people are learning the advantage of being practical, and. while 1 believe they stJU retain their pleturesqueness, they are looking more to the steady and real progress of the country and, J think, rarely miss an oppor tunlty to accomplish it." DAINTY HABITS. The Pafnj af the Top Bureau Drawer Superstition. A- word t9 tb wise is sufficient, so. you fastidious, up to date maiden, don't, 8 you value your soul's peace, put a gjoye away that Is still damp fra tM belt fit. the band or one that

has a finger "turned in. "Moreover, rt your gloves have just come from the cleaner's air them well before you put them away. The smell of gasoline may convince the woman who sits next you at the matinee that you have been motoring. The smell of gasoline combined with violet sachet is very like killing the odor of boiling cabbage with the odor of boiling onions. We are living in a progressive age and pride ourselves on being free from the foibles of the past generation. Mayhap we have come to the passing of the top drawer superstition. If the 1008 maiden can convince herself that she is not old maidish when she refuses to mistake her bureau drawer for a trash basket or a laundry bag. that she is not finicky if she knows that she can stick her hands Into her glove case in the dark and be sure of finding a pair of gloves, that she has Just as much right to have dainty furnishings for the interior of her bureau as she has to have ribbon wound coat hangers In her wardrobe, then she will have done herself and her sex great service.

Secret of Nervous Balance. Rev. Samuel McComb has written a few rules to guide a woman in keeping her nervous balance. Here they are: Cultivate sound, health creating emotionslove, joy, peace, faith and hope. Allow yourself sufficient time in which to do your work. Hold in reserve a surplus stock of nervous energy by keeping within the limit of youi organization. Do one thing at a time. Prepare yourself in good season for sleep. Trust In the infinite ginxlness of God. who loves every creature he has made.

The Women of Belgium. No one can travel in Belgium without being struck by the extraordinary activity and prominence of the women. Over the doors of shops of all descriptions the name of the owner or owners is frequently followed by "Soeurs" or "Veuve." You And them proprietors of hotels and restaurants. They are often custodians of the churches. They are employed to tow the boats along the canal banks. They cut up the meat In the butchers' shops, and they are even to be noticed shoeing horses at the forge.

sue paper streamers were used to excellent advantage. National Banks The First, Second and Union-National banks have followed a similar plan in their decorations. Yellow and white, yellow, green and white fans and bunting and i lags have been made use of advantageously. Colonial BuildingAlmost the entire Main street front of the Colonial building has been converted into a thing of beauty. Butterflies and fans formed . by bright colored buntings have been used the most extensively. Meyer's Cigar Stores "The trade" is represented in the window display of this establishment. The natural leaf of the tobacco plant has been made use of effectively to add to the yellow and white tissue paper scheme. Nusbaum's Store "If I had known you were going to have that horn of plenty in the window, I would like to have given you some potatoes to put in there. I've got the finest you ever saw and they are as slick as peeled onions," declared a grizzled old man to L. B. Nusbaum, proprietor of the

tstore. yesterday afternoon. Mounted astride a cornucopia is a tiny firy symbolical of the goddess of plenty. From the horn of plenty are tumbed garden products and vegetables of all Kinds. Attached o the horn are two white hobby-horses. In advance of the "ponies" is a fairy with a fall festival banner. Suspended as if in flight above the cornucopia is another fairy. The figure of a woman clasping a bunch of chrysanthemums is shown. Squashes and pumpkins are rolled about on the grass. Yellow and white Is carried out in the color effect. Stalks of corn are placed about in the background. The inscription, "When the frost is on the pumpkin," appears conspicuously. The other window of this store is arranged in an appropriate but less lavish manner. A woman is shown in the act of partaking of apples. A bowl of fruit is on the table at her elbow. Fall plants and foliage are used for a back ground. Feltman Shoe Store Before the entrance of this store is a portico erected temporarily with hugh colonial pillars draped in yellow and white. A canopy covering in the same colors adds to the appearance. Foliage plants and ferns are distributed about and a stock display is made also. "Who killed cock robin? "I," said the sparrow, "I laid him

low with my bow and arrow." The old nursery rhyme is depicted in a mihature fashion by an electrical contrivance in the rear of the store room. Every phase of the old story is acted out in counterpart by minature figures. The fish that held the dish to catch the blood, the cow that rang the bell in toll, and the crows that carried

the pall all are shown in action. This !

exhibit is a great treat for the children. Nicholson Book Store One of the windows at this establishment repre-1 sents the arrival of a detachment of ! soldiers at camp. There is a minature i highway lined with telephone poles. ' A company of cavalry and another of infantry are seen marching along. The men and horses are represented by

"tin soldiers." The tents in the camp i

are shown to one side.

Mashmeyer Store The fall festival poster girl is made the central idea for the decoration at this store. In the west window she is seen in her glory.

Her dress is yellow and a lavender belt encircles her waist. She wears lavender gloves and this color predomi- i nates in her hat. Foliage is used for j the back ground. In the arms of the figure representing the poster girl are a cluster of golden rod sprays. The' front of this store is draped artistically also. The interior decoration is in yellow and white and very neatly executed. Krone and Kennedy The front of this store is one of the neatest to be , found. With a festival poster for the central figure, yellow and white cheesecloth has been used as an enlarged frame and the effect is very pleasing. Humpe's Shoe Store A bower has been erected in front of this place of business. It is decorated in. the festival colors and corn stalks. A fring of ears of corn surrounds the bower at the top. G. H. Knollenberg Co. The exterior decoration is in the fall festival colors. Boston Store One window of this store contains dress suitings of beautiful patterns, and the other shows the figures of women wearing opera coats. The front of the store is decorated in yellow and white. Loehr & Klute The windows of this clothing store are draped In yellow and white tissue paper in a very nobby manner. Rosenbloom & Buntin The awnings of this establishment have been covered with yellow and white. The same colors are used in the decoration of the windows. Romey's The three-story front of this building is decorated, in an elaborate manner. Almost every color appears some place about the building. One of the display windows shows the complete furnishings for a dining-room. A magnificent chandelier made by the Chandelier and Art Brass company, of this city is one of the most conspicuous features. Halls An immense opera hat i3 suspended in front of this store, and it is sufficient In size to cover the heads of a dozen persons with room to spare. Allen & Company A unique electrical display representing children in trchible with various kinds of pets occupies one of the windows at the Allen furniture store. The festival col ors appear in many places. Starr Piano Co. Under the skilful hands of its force of employes at the Starr Piano Company's sales rooms the front of the large store has been converted into a thing of beauty. All about the glass front and bordering the windows, strands of evergreen have been suspended. Above the en-

i ranee ana extending to two piuars t

the curb is an arch of triumph." This too, is covered with evergreen. Interwoven with the evergreen are more than 300 incandescent electric lights with red, green and white globes. The lights extend entirely about the front of the store and the scene at night probably surpasses any other in the city from the standpoint of beauty. It is an ideal bower. About the pillars on the curb line are stacked stalks of

corn and between the pillars are i

heaped pumpkins and squashes, goldenrod, asters and fall plants are used to advantage In the decoration. This company has not only made special effort to arrange an artistic exterior but has taken pains to put the immense display windows in a fit manner to correspond. The west window contains the figure of. the fall festival girl in a yellow and white dress, lavender ribbons and lavender hat. The floor is covered with yellow, white and purple bunting. Two pianos are in the window. The east window is similar to the west but without the figure of the girl. Beehive Grocery. The front of this store has been draped in festival colors and the windows of the store room are adorned by yellow and white tissue paper decorations. Westcott Pharmacy A window full of "sweets" is offered here. The decorations are of tissue paper In yellow and white. Main street is not the only section of the city that is decorated, and the merchants of which have taken pains to improve the appearance of their places of business for the occasion. Fort Wayne avenue and North E street comprise the wholesale district and the proprietors of these establishments have fallen in line and even set the pace In some instances. The Jones Hardware Company's plant is one of the largest in the city and its retail sales rooms are decorated In a satisfactory manner. It has a well balanced effect. Yellow and white, and red, white and blue bunting are used to a good effect. The Pennsylvania railway station and the Bartel factory are decorated for the occasion. The factory building is made pretty by garlands. Bunting and flags are used mostly on the station. Over on the avenue, the Railroad Store, Richmond Brokerage Co., Great Central Tea Company, I. R. Howard Company, Pogue, Miller & Company and several of the other establishments are made brilliant by flags and bunting.

AUSTRIA BOLDLY ISSUES A DEEI TO THE POWERS (Continued on Page Five.)

place of force and oppression. Trade and communications are steadily spreading; the civilizing influence of a wider education has made itself felt and every man may enjoy the fruits of his labor under the protection of a well ordered government. "We consider it our most solemn duty to move forward along this path and with that goal before our eyes we are of the opinion that the time has come to give the inhabitants of both countries fresh proof of our trust in their political maturity." Tell Ministers of Purpose. The emperor has also aadressed a rescript to Baron von Aehrenthal, the Austro-Hungarian minister of foreign affairs, in which he says: "Being imbued with the unalterable conviction that the lofty, civilizing, and political objects or which the AustroHungarian monarchy undertook the occupation and administration o Bosnia and Herzegovina can be permanently secured only by granting the constitu

tional institutions corresponding to

their needs. I extend my sovereignty over Bosnia and Herzegovina, and at the same time bring into force in

those provinces the rules of succession

applying to my house.

"As a demonstration of the peaceful purposes which have led me to this immutable decree I at the same time order the evacuation of the Sanjak of Novipazar by the troops of my army stationed therein. "A second rescript, addressed to the Austrian minister of finance, Baron vurian von Rjecz. by the emperor, says: " "I have decided to give practical effect to the rights of my sovereignty, as well as the succession of my house in the case of Bosnia and Herzegovina.' " People Granted Full Rights. The rescript directs the minister to issue a proclamation to the people of these provinces, assuring them the full measure of civic rights, liberty of person and conscience, security of property, respect for their customs, liberty of the press, the right of emigration, petition, and association; the administration of the law by competent judges, and the establishment of a representative assembly. High officials state that the annexation is irrevocable. Austria even is unwilling to participate in an international conference unless assured that the matter will not be discussed at all. The provinces, they say, have been conquered by Austrian culture; the Austrian sword must remain with the dual monarchy. The reports that Austria-Hungary was mobilizing troops today were officially declared to be without foundation. The ministry of war announced that no steps whatever in this direction had been taken.

SACRED CONCERT. The Endeavor society of Boston will give a sacred concert at the church next . Sunday evening, October eleventh, at seven forty-five o'clock. Miss Frances Keys will assist. All are in-fit

"Yes, I claim that no woman can be happy who is continually slighted and overlooked by' the oposlte sex, and often contemptuously ignored by her own. It is enough to wring one's heart with pity to see many young ladies and matrons who are lacking in all that goes to make a woman attractive and magnetic, through some defect in nutrition or flesh-making element which nature ought to have supplied them with. The human skin is a huge gland, richly endowed with nerves and a net work of minute blood vessels. Some defect in these nerves and blood vessels prevents their absorbing the flefch-making elements from the blood and thinness, abnormal thinness is the result. Now let me tell just how to fool Mother Nature. If she won't absorb fleshy tissues from the blood, we can feed the nerves and cells through the skin until they develop and retain the fleshy elements necessary to promote a pretty bust and graceful arms and neck. Mix and apply this powerful, harmless and rich nerve stimulant and quick development with increased measurements will follow as certain as night follows day and I speak unblushingly, but modestly, from experience. "Mix together two ounces of glycerine and one ounce tincture Cadomene compound; let staftd two hours; then add three ounces of rosewater and a teaspoonful of borax. Shake and apply morning and night, rubbing until absorbed. Then wash with hot water and soap and dry. Treat the arms, bust, neck and shoulders and in a few days you can notice the feeling of plumpness and firmness rewarding your efforts. (For publication with initials, Mrs. C. B. L.)
