DIAGONAL WOODS ARE TO BE a

Quite the most delightful Of these

A pale gray wool dress. with the
stripping thread of black. had a satin
collar In cOrbeau-blue satin. with the
ends held down with oval Chinese but
tons OF great beauty. Under this col
lar, which, coat-fashion, came little
lower in front than the collar bones,
was a shawl collar OF black satin. On
cream wool dress, threaded with
darker color and showing the stripe

particular panel-there was a little
embroidered collar OF a soft brown

gown would be made.

actual progress of the idea beyond the

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.
The German inventor has patented
a simple and disable four-wheeler. It
makes good progress over roads of
the modern kind and over such sandy
stretches as the sea beaches afford. 1t
is a very light vehicle and its steer
