This latest within OF Dame Fashion
Is built on the same idea that char
acterizes her other "hobble children
naturally. II Is said to be the out
come of the wide popularity of the
hobble skirt as the old style of hair
dres sing looks out Of proportion and
topheavy when worn with this latest
of skirts And IL is fashioned thus
ly:
The hair is parted smoothly in the
middle and draped loosely back from
the fare with a due regard for the
proper placing and patting OF soft lit
tie tendrils. II Is then bunched at
the back of the head In a large, thick
mass, and around this is twisted one
of the heavier coils of hair, or RIB
bon. or one of the new silver gauze
bands-thus. you see, making the
long-for hobble. Back of this hobble
the hair is coiied and Axed with the
usual array of hairpins to hold II In
place. And. here. too. Is where the
curls go-don't overlook these curls
for. as has been said above. they are
distinctly characteristic of the sea
sons coiffureS.
At first this hobble fashion may
seem ungainly. for all OF the hair is
punched at the back with only the
parted hair directly above the fore
head. But il is up-to-date. so why
bubble about 1t? Besides, IL elimi-
mates the topheayy pompadour with
its mattress-like rat. Moreover. II is
not easily mussed by the wearing OF

A distinctive mark of this seasons
dictum for the establishment OF

m a recent paper before the munici-
apl engineers Of the city Of New York,
Mr.. George w. Tilson, chief engineer
Of the department Of highways Of the
borough Of Manhattan, made the fol-
lowing suggestive statement; 1T seems
impossible to obtain reliable figures as
TO the cost Of keeping streets in re-
pairs. The amount of money spent in
the different cities for such purposes can
be learned. but that is different propo-
sition. as probably no American city
spends enough to keep its streets IN
good condition"
Attention is here called to one of the
difficulties of preparing estimates as to
what the cost of maintenance OF pave
ment will be, or even what it has been
in individual cities. As Mr.. Tillson
states. it is possible to obtain figures OF
money expended it is even possible to
find out how much the cost has been in

ment under maintenance. But how mis-.

IS probable that in some cases such aver

few, if any, cases where the saving Ell

be much more than Offset by the DIS
advantages of the nrepared payements
meantime; which saving might even be
considerably less than the actual money

His Kindness is deeply appreciated by

good work. All who have so nobly as
sisted would feel well paid for their
effort, if they could see the many homes
which will be gladdened on Christmas
day. Capt. and Mrs. Thorne extend
thanks to all who have helped in this.
They fully realize that it is only by
the aid Of the friends they are able to
do this good work. Remember that the
