THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, WEDNESDAY, MAR. 29, 1916

Once upon a time the' world was quite a dismal place to live in, for the land had been dry but a short time and only one man and woman Inhabited Its surface. It was moist but warm, bo all over the earth there was a dense growth of jungle which was full of wild animals. This man did not have any family name, for names had not been: invented. But his wife called him Bobo, Just because it was easy to say. He was tall and strong and rather cross at times. Now the Bobo's wife made a fine pie, and the Bobo, though he dressed in 6kins and lived in a cave, was just as fond of pie as a farm boy in Maine. She had all kinds of luscious fruits to put in them, so that they leaked their sweetness at the edges. These pies were so good she never had to complain of her husband's going away from home in the evening at least, this woman thought her pies were the reason but it may have also been the fact that around in the forest lurked all kinds of ferocious beasts, the worst of which was a huge tiger. Only one animal lived in the Bobo's cave. That was a young wolf which had been caught when a cub. But as it grew up It became devoted to the man and woman, so much so that it would never let any stranger come in without barking. Hut one night the tiger managed to get its nose in the back of a hole in

the cave and then and there it stole a pie. Bobo was angry, and so was the woman, but Mult, the wolf, was furious. "I have found a new fruit today," raid the woman to Bobo about a week after the tiger had stolen the pie. "It was on a low tree full of round, green, hard balls. I imagine they will be fine cooked, so I am going to fix you up a nice piece of pie for your Sunday dinner." That afternoon Mrs. Bobo took a tkin in which she gathered fruit and went to the tree to pick some. Ruff followed her, Now, though Huff could not talk, he understood everything people, as well as animals, said, and he smiled a big, wolf smile when he saw what the woman was doing for the was picking green persimmons. And if there was anything in the

world a tiger hates it is a persimmon, raw or cooked. It always makes it 111 and sometimes has a magical effect if taken by mistake. Ruff had an idea when he saw Mrs. Bobo put the persimmon pie out on a rock to cool along with several others. He took his foot and pushed it under the stone so she did not find it when she went at sunset to bring the rest In. "That's fine," thought Ruff to himself, as he slipped out at dark and put the pie back on top of the rock. "Now let the tiger come ahead he will get his dose all right." Presently the brush fire in the cave died out. .The man and woman slept soundly under their warm skin-bed-dingf but Ruff lay awake at the door of the cave. Pat, pat, pat, came the sound of the soft footfalls of the tiger he was ' coming around the came. Ruff curled his lip in amusement. The tiger saw the green persimmon pie looking very tempting in the moonlight, and with a gulp down his fat throat it slid. He licked his mouth'as if it tasted bad, then fell on the ground rolling about in pain. "Serves you right, you thief!" cried Ruff, througL a crack in the tone. "Oh, help me!" shouted the tiger. "Help me just this once and I will never come here again." "Nothing doing!" laughed the wolf. "I put that pie there myself to catch you. In ten minutes the persimmons will have you . so shriveled up your own mother wouldn't know you on sight." And they did. . In ten minutes the persimmons had so puckered up the big tiger that he shrunk, and shrunk and shrunk till he was just the size of a big cat. Then he slunk away into the woods. And from that day to this the cat hates a dog, for it remembers when It was a loyal tiger and what is now a dog was the young wolf in the first man's cave. For the cub wolf stayed with a man so long he became a new-looking beast, though you can still see that he is related to the wolf. And this is the reason the cats and dogs hate each other they began the quarrel millions of years ago, far back in the time of the first man. Tomorrow's story "Pug and the Frog."

Individuality in Corsetry

SLIGHTLY NIPPED WAIST STRAIGHT HIP. The "nip-in" of the present season is just sufficient to allow the corset to follow the natural figure lines. . BUST HEIGHT For the practical corset the American Lady models which are receiving the most attention this season are the medium bust models, 4 or 5 inches in height. HIP LENGTHS With the raising of the bust line, there has been a corresponding shearing away of the corset skirt and the universal demand is for medium lengths. BONING Though flexible and comfortable, the season's American Lady models are sufficiently boned to hygienically support the figure. MODERATELY' PRICED American Lady Corsets are priced $1.00 to $3.50. There's a model for your individual figure.

Front Lace Corsets There is a noticeable demand for American Lady front lace corsets. An increased number of women like them. Those who wear thsm are especially pleased with our new spring models, made in a wide range of faultless fitting designs, characteristic features being the American Lady shield protector, and the ground top clasp, the combination of which prevents bulkiness and pinching.

The American Girl Corset It goes without saying that the yonug girl should not let her figure "go" until it is to late to mould it properly. Many young girls grow up without corsets; the result is that their figures do not develop in shape. It is absolutely necessary, if girls are to have beautiful figures, that as they pass into womanhood they wear corsets so shaped and so boned as to permit healthful development. A developing girl requires a "girlB corset" fashioned especially for her figure. American Girl Corsets are such corsets, designed on moderate lines, made of soft, pliable materials, with very light boning, which features render them the proper and comfortable support for the girls' figure. Priced 1.00; made in pink or white.

For Medium and Stout Figures

The Rengo Belt Corsets

Do you quickly break down your corsets? Do you rip them to pieces? Do they lose their shape after a short wearing? If so, you've never worn a Rengo Belt Corset. Try one and you'll realize the difference. It's a stout worn

en's corset in the truest sense of the word. Ihe materials are strong, the boning of the most flexible watchspring ste el. A cleverly devised reducing feature is called to your attention, which extends across the abdomen and gives sharp lines to any figure. STYLE 213 is a low bust model for average figures. It has the elastic gores over the abdomen ; it is long over the hips and flat in back. An exceptionally good model, priced $2.00 STYLE 319 is especially attractive to stout and medium figures, for it has the double strength extra heavy elastic webbing and double watch spring steels, guaranteed not to rust. It also has the exclusive patented Rengo Belt Abdominal feature. It will positively give support and reduce the excess flesh at the back, hips and abdomen. Priced $3.00. STYLE 320 Medium bust and long skirt ; belt feature supports abdomen and holds the flesh in restriction. Elastic inserts in front and band across back assure snug fit in corset skirt ; priped $3.00.
