HEALTM.COFORVBEAUTY sf WOMEN A good friend ha9 set us to thinking. She said: "Yeur Wonder lift aJt rrviind ms efpatsnt msdUinti." Which means that our nds have given her the idea that the Wondcrlift is a sick woman's corset. Probably that's our fault -we may have said too much about the marvelous health features when, in reality, the Wonderlift is quite as remarkable as a style corset. Here's the fact: The very features that make Nemo Wonderlift Corsets so healthful also mould the figure into perfect fashion-lines.

y g No. 555

For Instance: 1. The Wonderlift Bändlet promote health by giving perfect physical upport. It alto prevent the corset f.-om riding up and twisting, thus preserving smooth, fashionable line. 2, It reshape and reduces a too-full figure, and builds u and ronodt out a too-slim figure In other uxrds, it corrects natural figure -defect; insure comfort. S. The Nemo "bridge" assures freed or; from pressure over gaitrio region, promotes free- breathing and good digestion, i.e.: HEALTH. It aUo induce an erect, grace" ful, fashionable pose, without which retoi STYLE is impossible. EMPHATICALLY the Nemo Wonderlift 75 a STYLE Corset of the highest dats, and it is MADE SO by its wonderful HYGIENIC FE A TUR ES There's one Wonderlift model lor very slim figures with sharp hip bones and concave abdomen No. 557, at $5X0. Another for the biggest women, with rolls of flesh all over No. 98, at $10.00. This is the only corset of i ts kind ever made. Theo there are other models, not so extreme: B54 for short ifont women $5 00 555 lor taller full figures $5.00 556 fr sle&der fo tnrdium $5.00 lOOO-s model d Ivx. ( luftrou brrJ. lor rrrr fulJ fiur;..$10. We confidently repeat this prediction: In due time, nearly every woman who wears a corset will wear a Nemo Won derlift.

.S'r-vk a-Timr Sjxninl S-rvl': It) llrnry Clous. NKW YoRK. April A nee.lrd spirit of caution is dvelouirnr in

nearly all departments f t;aile and J finance. The violent ri. in certain

commodities, the mad rush of orders i just

for the

many manufactured products, 1 complete exhaustion of supplies'

In other commodities and the unreasonini? eaeness of buyers created a situation so extren e and unpreredented as to seriously raise the question, is it not time for a pause? The war is of course responsible for these extraordinary conditions, which are additionally complicated ly the unusual uncertainties in home affairs. A glance at the pace at wh!ch we have been traveling is su'geKtive. For many weeks bank clearings in the I'nited States have been ru ining at ahout 50 per cfnt and more in excess, of last year; the greatest ratio of increase generally being at eastern financial and manufacturing centers. Approximately haR of these clearings are at Nev. York, and the increases have been largely due to financial and industrial activities created by the war, v'ch must stop or change their dire. a when peace comes. According to Iradstreet's index number, commodity values on March 1 had risen 31 per cent since the war began. The ris.: has been greatest in metals, textiles and chemicals. A few comparisons of wholesale prices at the beginning of the war and March 1, 1916, from the same authority are given herewith:

These are not times for gettir.K deeply Into debt. but rather for pursuing a cautious policy in all operations entering into the future.

Rrick 5.25 .50 line, yellow 2 5.O0 35.00 Steel Is Act Re. Since the above figures were compiled prices have in many instances risen still higher. No industry has enjoyed more' intense activity and prosperity than steel. Production of pig iron has ubout doubled last year's figures and prices have risen tc a point affording- extraordinary profits, which will continue until present contracts are comrleted. Building is about 20 per cent ahead of last year in spite of dear materials. Textiles have been very actie. cotton goods often advancing 2 0 per cent to '.'.0 per cent. Woolens have scored large advances, and in some instances linens have ris-en 100 per cent owing to the embargo. Railroads earnings have been gain

ing at the rate of 12 per cent to 20 per cent for a number of wi-eki past. Our foreign trade has been, growing by leaps and bounds, particularly in exports. .Su. i facts as these can be cited indetinitel' lo prove the abnormal activit and piosperity of the United States; chietly the result of the conflagration abroad, although last year's good harvest has been an important contributing factor. .ucri conditions cannot last. They will bring their own reaction without fail, and it is only a matter of time when that reaction begins. The lotiKer it is postponed and the reatet our prolits out of the misfortunes of others, the worse will be the reut lion when it arrives. InMation always accompanies war, and in our case inflation has been materially aided by our bi gold Mipply and the new federal reserve law which greatly facilitated the enormous expansion of credit. The phenomenal expansion of loans is highly sitggestue of caution, especially as the effect of high prices in retail distribution is only just beginning to be felt. Much larger sums of money will be required to carry retail merchandise stocks, and higli prices will inevitably tend to restrict consumption; though this may be temporarily offset by labor being generally well employed a. good wages and in many instances at very high wages. The conclusion cannot be avoided that these conditions are highly unstable. When war ends a iob nt readjustment will be inevitable. Old conditions will not be re-j-tored. A long period of uncertainty will h tve to be squarely fi.ced. This country will then find itself upon a high cost of production basis; wages and commodities will be high-

ev here than abroad; our capacity for turning out all kinds of mer-

j chandise will be at high water mark; J Ilurope will need our help in reJ building; she will be too poor to pay I o'ir high prices longer than neces

sary; the belligerents will supply themselves at home as far as possible, and whether we like it or not, this country with few exceptions w ill hae to endure a period of dullness and reaction when peace ultlv ately comes. That result, much as it is desired, is not close at hand; and the best way to anticipate this reaction is to take time by the forelock and apply the brakes upon the irrational tendencies connected with the present upward movement before they get beyond control. Thus we may regulate the situation; secure all reasonable profits, and moderate if not avert the ill consequences that would follov an unbridled continuance of present illbalanced activities. Repeated, warnings hae already been issued from banking circles, and not a few of our industrial leaders have also

placed themselves on record against )

of almost ruinous conditions, and the capital needed for development will not be forthcoming unles the roads are enabled to earn a fair return on the necessary investments. In common fairness, if the government is going to put restraints upon the companies' earnings, it will also have to protect those earnings against some of the demands made by overagrrvssive and unreasonable la bor leaders. The chief factors of depression in the market for the time being are the crises in our relations with Germany und Mexico. The former appears to have again reached an inflammatory stage, the outcome of which is beyond human foresight at this time. The Mexican affair is less grave, but may be the cause of much pernicious political activity. The presidential campaign, though overshadowed by the war, is running under full headway, and the efforts to excite public opinion and secure votes by unscrupulous politicians seem quite likely to complicate an already highly sensitive and dangerous situation. These are times, not for stirrinv' up friction, but for

Foreign securities are coming this way in considerable volume, and this movement tends to temporarily express va'ues. There is a fair demand for high grade bonds which are relatively firm.
