They are combining two kinds of fur
considerably. Russian sable and chin
chilla make a good contrast. The black
of the sable with its thick, upright fur
makes a fine contrast to the soft curly
chinchilla. Moreover the chinchilla is
much cheaper than the sable and so is
desirable TO finish out what would 9th
erwise be too expensive a garment.

If your opponents attempt to hurry you,
you can refuse to permit it, only do not
waste time without good cause for delay.
To trump or not to trump a doubtful
trick is well answered by book rule, which
it is advisable to follow in almost every
case Holding four or more trumps, you
should pass, except in the case of six
trumps or possibly five, when. having had
no indication Of partners good suit and
no particularly advantageous discard,
trumping may be profitable. With less
than four trumps, the cases are rare when
one should not trump second hand, and
this is not because your hand may not
warrant passing the trick, but rather as
a means of informing your partner of your
trump strength. If a player passes a
doubtful trick, discarding a low card, he
simply informs his partner that he has
| four or more trumps. If a trump lead is
desired from the partner in case he wins
the track, "call' should be started by
| discard. Partner on winning such a trick,
should lead trumps or not, according TO his
own hand Should he have strength in the
suit from which his partner has made the
discard, and is able to help his partner in
the suit he has negatively declared as his
own, he should jump at the 'calP' and
! lead trumps. A hand occurred In a match
/ last winter in which two tricks and the.
game were lost by second hand refusing TO
trump a doubtful trick, when holding ace,
king and one small trump. The trick was
won by his partner, who. holding a split
hand Of three of each plain suits. and four
small trumps, thought with, as he suppos-
ed, at least eight trumps between them, a
| trump lead would be better than to force
his partner Unfortunately, one enemy,
holding queen. jack. ten and a small card,
was put in the position of being able to
bring in the suit originally passed the
/ three-trump hand. It is only in rare cases
that ii pays to decline ones partner ana,
although many strong players might pass
a doubtful trick with three such good
l trumps. or even with queen twice guarded,

combining those two marvels of the cen

the mechanism. this latest aid to rapit

running over two small wheels. An up
right steel rod with bevel gear top
and bottom communicates the power to
the trolley wheels, which rest on the
wire. The wheel, propelled in the or.
binary way, drives the machine along
the wire at rapid rate with the greatest
ease. No dust. mud, ruts or stones makes
travel uncomfortable. When dismolnt-
ing at the end Of a journey, the trolley
car and wheel can be easily lifted OF the
wire, and by clever devices they are
made to 60 on the wire without the
)east annoyance.

But on the bicycle trolley you feel a
gentle swaying to and fro, which, if 1t
isn't the same as bird wheeling in the

pected to put the Ferris wheel, the "shoot

The system, however, is not alone de-
vised for pleasure purposes. Many prac
teal uses have already suggested them

way will fix that anywhere.
