New Gauntlet
Automobile Gloves.

~ HE Grinnell Gauntlet Au-
4 tomobile Glove should
~ appeal strongly to glove
wearers. One very de-
sirable feature is the manner in
which the wrist can be adjusted
by the patent fastener"-loose
or tight as one wishes. These
gloves are made of horsehide-
strong and substantial, yet pill
able; back of hand and fingers
are ventilated, which makes them
desirable for summer. They
come in black, tan and gray and
are steam, heat and waterproof.
$3.50 per pair.
The same manufacturer makes
"a Horsehide Glove-one-button-
length, to use around the auto.
Also excellent for working in the
garden.

CAKE" PICTURES SOLD.
Real Money Paid for the Washing
ton Fakers' Caricatures.

The takers show in mud ROOM Of
the Corcoran Gallery Of Art came to a
hilarious finish last evening; and the
gallery has now resumed it's usual dig
nified aspect. The mud room," be it
known, is the clay model room. The
takers show was the fourth annual ex-
hibition of posters. painted by art
students in good-natured derision of
the works of their teachers and other
artists of the Washington Society of
Artists
There were actually people who
bought some of the fakes. James Henry
Moser, acting as auctioneer, led the
crowd on until some of the real things
began to get jealous and wished that
they had painted fakes Instead Of
works of art. The highest priced paint
ing was Miss Ethel Noyes' imitation Of
a landscape by Max Weyl She mingled
humor with her paint and made the
thing look like one Of these jig-saw
puzzles that are so popular nowadays
The first prize though, was taken by Miss
Ethel Adrience She faxed up a pic-
ture entitled "stung." 1t is take-off
on the happy little picture called His
Shadow" representing a little boy
dancing around In the woods-far from
home and clothing. The fake picture
shows the same youngster dancing
about, but covered with bees which arc
singing him at the rate Of one per Sec
ond per square inch.

Is de'd here Of paralysis, after q long
and sturdy fight for life.
While swimming at a summer resort

was broken by contact with a pile during
a dive from a plat 'orm. He recovered
later sufficiently to walk about but ,fter-

which left him crippled.
After this attack he became well
enough to walk about with the aid of
crutches. An accidental fall about a year
ago resulted in the paralysis of all his
body except his right arm and the thumb
and forefinger Of each hand.
Although handicapped so severely, he
kept up courage and went into the dry
goods business. He kept the books and
