Department of Commerce and Labor at Washington Interested in Idea Which May Appeal to Fancy

The idea was made ;n Germany" and the department Of commerce and la Dor is showing the photograph repro duced on this page as proof of the actual progress of the idea beyond the mental stage.
 The sail-wagon was talked of as much as the steam wagon in the early days of the horseless carriage, and both alike promised but little in the way of practical usefulness. But now that the smooth and hard road, the ball bearing. the pneumatic tire and other improvements have arrived conditions have so changed that the land sailboat is coming into view again.

How to Lose kips

How it Is that all women have sud denly become so long and slim in their waists and hips?" exclaimed the dress maker. Why, that is simple enough. it has come about from having to but ton their own blouses in the back. That's the most wonderful exercise for reducing the waist and hips. Beats all kinds of physical culture. You see, a woman has to lift her arms over her head, then bend them back and reach down, clear te the middle of her blouse and hold herself in that position while she fastens a dozen or so of tiny but tons. Then she must turn her arms down and twist them up behind her. self and again hold them there until she has fastened the garment from the waist up to the middle of the back i; in other words, until the entire gap is closed If that process does not stretch and Timber the muscles and take off fat l do not know of one tLat will"

Another member of this same gen. eration named Aaron Guild was blow ing in the field with his son when a messenger came galloping down the road with the news that the war had begun. Aaron left his blow standing, and probably the patient oxen had the vacation of their lives; Aaron rushed to the house, took his favorite Kings Arms" from it's place on the wall, and started for the fighting line post haste
 Joseph Guile was captain of the minute men of his region when the war broke out. He served at Tic onderoga, Montreal and other places. When the news of the battle of Lex ington reached him he led his minute men from Dedham, along the road to Lexington. On the road he met man who said that the reports of the battle were false. Joseph did not hesi- tate to deal with the gossiper as he thought fit. He bound the man and gagged him, and left him in charge of an armed guard, to see that he did not

The names Guild, Guile and Gile, be- long to two branches of the same fam fly, established in this country by two brothers Other forms of the same name are Guld, Guide, Guyld and Guylde, and they all mean the same thing. The old guilds, in Holland, were friendly trade societies; each member had to pay a certain piece Of money, called a glider, which orig inally came from word meaning gold. Hence the societies were named gilds or guilds. Similar societies ex- isted in various other countries, and the various forms of the name have all the same significance. The Guild family derived it's name from the name of the trade societies.
 Little is known of the immediate an cestors of the two brothers Guild who first came to America. The family had existed for some tue in England, also in Scotland, and in the island of Guernsey; and probably the various branches sprang from the same source. In 1636 two brothers, John and Samuel Guild. came to New Eng land from old England, probably John settled at Dedham, Mass, and estab- lished the Guild family; Samuel set tied at Haverhill. Mass, and estab- lished the Guile or Gle family. Both families have prospered and grown and spread pretty we'll over the coun. try.
 John was born about 1915, and as stated above came here in 1886. He led retired life and not very much is known about him. In 1643 he is mentioned as freeman of Dedham and two years later, records of his marriage with Elizabeth Crooke oi Roxbury are dated.
 Their three children that lived to maturity were Samuel, John and Eliza beth. Samuel was a member of Capt

There's at least one little nub of a man over on the West side who jumps through doughnuts when his wife's around. She is a large person with definite opinions about any given thing and she can give him one look and wither him up like dried beef.
 Not long ago this man and his wife were invited out to dinner. She went early in the afternoon, and he was to go home from the office, change his clothes and get around to the scene of the dinner festivities as soon as he could
 When he started to dress he ran across large pasteboard box in a clothes closet containing black sack suit that he hadn't seen for months and which his wife had told him was lost or stolen. He decided to surprise and delight her by wearing that suit and showing her that the lost was found.
 We'll, here's what happened, accord. ing to eye witnesses-and this is one Of those true ones. His wife gave him cold-storage look and inquired right sharply where he got that suit. He told her.

The witchcraft persecution was at it's height ill Salem in 1892, but as Sam uel was the next year made selectman of Dedham, it is likely that he left Salem before the trouble. He re- mained selectman of Dedham until 1713, and as he had ten children he left a large family there.
 Johns second son, Samuels brother, also named John, removed to Wren tham in 1881, and was made deacon of the church there in 1707. He had eight children, and likewise founded big branch of the family Descendants of Dedham branch of the family later moved to Lebanon, Walpole and Attic borough.
 In the meantime Samuel brother of John of Dedham, had settled at Pen tuchet, now Haverhill, Mass, and he had established big family there un- der the name of Guile or Gile. which his descenants bear to this day So by the third or fourth generation the Guild, Gile and Guile families really all the same, were numerous through out New England, and other parts of the east. Now, of course, the family extends all over the United States.
 One of the members of the fourth generation, Nathaniel, descended from John of Dedham, had big mine which he worked in connection with an iron furnace. He made wheels, shot. gun carriages and other imple- ments of warfare, and when the revo- lutionary war broke out, his business received big boom. So he petition ed the government that the men in his foundry be exempted from service in the militia service. so that he may be able to supply garrison wheels and shot for the service" This request was granted in 1776, ''it being of so great importance for the defense of this and the United States of Amer lea"
