Again the lily-etemmed, princess gowned figures of the 18th com tury that swayed with no more streuuous exercise than «a lnaguld Minuet, and swooned at the mere mention of a wholesome dinner! For the fashionable New York modistes have decreed the wasp waist for 1907 Wasp watsts mean lversplitting, stomach.crushing, ktdney-dis. placing corsets to press out reluctant adipose ato long, slender, mac aronitike lines. Imagine the 20th century woman at her favorite golfing these steel torture-vises, Why; the links: would have to be patrolled with ambulances picking up the faints! What availeth the American woman that forsook the pinching, paperweight shoo of a decade ago for a footfitting No, 5 calfskin, and abandoned the graceful, trailing, bacteria collecting gown for the short, sanitary walking skirt, if she’s going to apply Chinese crip pling methods to her breathing and digestive apparatua? The American woman enjoys her emancipation from barbarlam two much to allow oven o fashion grafter to lead her back. Of course, some women are cast by nature for the wasp-walated princess gown role, and they will undoubtedly affect tt. So will a few blind idolaters of the god of modes, who would suffer the aplked gard of the Yungfrau herself if he willed ft, and~ complainingly pay the doctor bills. But the woman blessed with an average amount of gray matter and enough fatty tissue to insulate her nervous system wil! do just as she did last year—pass the princess and prin cess-preparing corset by. ‘Woman has evoluted out of the fainting stage, in A Tottering House of Lords Revolutions differ In kind, but tf the threatened curbing and the final disestablishment of the English house of lords becomes effect fve, it will have been one of the most sensational revolutions of our times, and a striking evidence that the world still moves Parliament, a# constituted, ts a development from the ancient Witenagemot or counc!] of wise men of early Anglo-Saxon times. It has become as much an clemental part of English goverament as the throne Itself. ‘The struggle between-the commons and the lords, which has deen smoldering for years, has been precipitated by the defeat of the education bill in the upper house, and the tobeexpected defeat of all the remainder of the ministerial program. Prior to the reas gembling of parliament on Feb. 1%, the government determinedly perfected its plan of attack—first, a declaration of the Inatienable fights of the commons, and, if necessary, a final appeal to the nae tion itself. The upper house for a bundred years has Beta becoming oh and more an excresence upon the sturdy oak of English govern Geif-eatiefied and arrogant, it has ignored the demands of the peo ple as exptessed through the commons. It has refused to work in sympathy with the lower house. It has made iteelf a law unto itself, and never perceived that it might go too far Byery revolution of history, peaceful or warlike, has been caused by the arrogance of those in power, and by thetr blindness tw the signs of the times. “Twice before,” says Thos. Michael Kettle, a momber of partla- ment now in this country, “has the situation In England been as ecute as it ts today. In one case the problem was settled by the beheading of a king; tn the other by « rerolution.” It takes @ good deal to. wake up England. Our cousins are more Phiegmatic than we. Because a thing always has beon, they tm line to the belief that It always should be Painting the dome of St. Pants sky-tblue would be worse than treason, because the dome Of St. Paul's was never sky-dine before. They have an old-fashioned bellef that tradition deserves respect. We wonder how bad the house of lords really is, that England | should be willing even to reprove it. | } MERE ERR EERE EERE EERE ER REE ?DIANA’S DIARY CHAPTER NUMBER 2. | * * * * * * * 7 * * REAR “| Burst Out Crying As If the Roses Had Been That Many Lemons.” Worse and more of itt I thought my chance meeting with Telemachus T.
