Ign in exquisite shades Of brown,
freen or'blue, while the blue and green
harmonies in Oriental embroidery full

pination. A vivid orange found in
nion with duh wood shades is par

kolden brown goods. The woman who

blish charming results in the lattice ef-
|ects wrought out Of narrow inset lace
pr fine silver or white cord. with a
railing irregular vine and flowers en-
broidIered over it. This is an ideal
for the dainty and ineXpen-
live evening gowns of sheer, or soft
WOOL material
Among the most elaborate and cost
" embroideries are those of silver in
Eaised effect, and no more beautiful
for a black gauze or tulle
evening toilette can be imagined than

Following a summer idea, fruits will be

NEW SWISS
LIFE PRESERVER
With Il Shipwreoked Person Could
Float and Subsist.

3 7 took two citizens OF Switzerland
to design the life-saving apparatus
shown in the accompanying draw
ing, and possibly 1t might be well
to suggest that a third should devote
his attention to an arrangement for
slowing it in small compass when not
in use. as it is quite a bulky looking
affair. The basis Of the equipment is
a Heat to be attached to the back of a
person before entering the water, while
connected with it and fastened to the
chest by straps is a divided compart-
ment containing provisions and drink.
The float consists OF two cylinders
placed end to end and hermetically
sealed, with eyelets for fastening the
straps in position. The provision and
drink chamber consists OF an elongated
reservoir, Of crescent shape. Its in
terioc is divided horizontally into three
compartments, containing drinking
water, a stimulant and an auxiliary air
chamber for relieving the body Of the
weight of the apparatus. Leading out
Of the various compartments are tubes
coming within reach Of the mouth Of
the person, enabling him to partale
of the contents Of the chambers with
out effort, and also preventing the
salt water from gaining an entrance to
injure the contents. Above the upper
reservoir are three fiat cases for con-
taini1g condensed foods, with tight

would hardly be visible, and might
cause a wreck for which the trainmen
could not be blamed. The attachment
shown in the accompanying drawing
is designed to throw the light rays
on the rails while rounding a curve In
either direction, and turn them into line
with the track again as soon as the
straight road is reached. In this in
vention the headlight is mounted on
a revolving platform, instead OF being
attached directly TO the boiler, which is
geared to a vertical rod running down
ward to the forward truck Of the en-
gine. AS this truck is the first to feel
the bend of the rail on reaching a
curve, and turns itself accordingly, it
reyOlves the rod in one direction Oh. the
other, which turns the lamp cores
pondingly and throws the light on the
curve. The instant the locomotive
reaches the straight track again the
light is thrown straight ahead, having
already crossed the track once in fol-
lowing the curve, thus giving the en-.
gineer a view Of the line for some dis
tance ahead while yet on the curve,

On each disc there is a projecting

arrangement will slip the end of an en-
velope instantly without danger to the
contents. AS will be seen by a glance
at the cut, a rotary cutting blade IS
pivoted underneath the V-shaped
trough which carries the envelope. All
that is necessary to put the cutter in
operation is to strike the envelope u

end, insert the opposite end in the
trough and press the wire bale at

these wheels are geared to the small
cutter the latter is rotated by the de-

blade to clip the edge from the envel-
ope projecting through the slot in the
trough. A spring raises the bale as
soon as the finger is lifted, and the
cutter is then ready for the next en-

by an elastic cord, attached to the end
of the line Of railway. The target is
set, and then at the proper moment
the catch Is released by pulling a string
or other suitable means, and away
bounds the rabbit or other target. The
undulating track gives a more lifelike
movement to the various animal forms
attached to the carrier. These targets
are readily interchangeable, so that
shooting at any distance may be made
as difficult as desired.

strop, provided with two handles, is
threaded around three rolls. The me-
chanism is such that, directly either
end of the strop is pulled the razor
swings over to that side until its edge
meets the leather. When the pull is
reversed the razor is DETECTED to the
opposite strap and the other side Of the
edge is treated to the stropplng pro-
cess. This arrangement prevents the
cutting of the strop and insures keen

invention with disdain, the man of the
