Thousands of Washing- tonians, even, have not seen it. nn And yet a satisfying visit to the Eastern Shore may be made very comfortably in a “single day. To Claiborne is but two hours—through fresh, fragrant country by swift elec- tric train and across the lovely Chesapeake by so sturdy and com- fortable a steamer as the Govermor Harrington — or the new Governor Ritchie. The journey may be pleasantly in- terrupted, midway, long enough for a visit to the United States Naval Academy and the historic buildings of the charming old town of An- napolis. Luncheons may be carried, of course, but admirable and inexpensive meals are to be had in Annapolis, on the boat, or at Claiborne.

But for men. Statistics furnished by the Paris Society of Corseters declare that many more corsets now are being bought by men than women—men who are keen to reduce their figures to the sylphlike proportions of their vouth, and among them many Americans. ‘“Men no longer are self-conscious about buying their corsets,” sald one retailer, “‘although some Amer- icans are likely to blugh the first time."” But the blush matches are cor- sets themselves.
