The remaining limbs may be short

Just to look at the new shapes in
tailored hats transports ones to
midsummer, to visions of
n beaches and mountains, to vaca-
tione time and outings. The
shape is the thing in these hats,
with trimming of the simplest charac-
ter. Shapes have been carefully con-
sidered and are SO well balanced and
beautiful that trimmings are mere ac-
cessories used to accentuate its lines,
to repeat or reflect its expression or to
accentuate its peculiarities.
These hats must be properly poised
on the head and the trimming placed
to suit the face of the wearer. But 1t
must serve a purpose on the hat and
not interfere with its hues or contra
dict them.
Two models in white and black are
shown here trimmed with white wings
and ribbon. The large round shape is
faced with black velvet. The black
milans and hemps trimmed with white
are very chic.

Twenty Outfits Working Between
Dallas and Waco on the Strick-
land Line--15 Miles Graded

There are now fifteen miles OF
right of way for the Waco-Dallas-
Corsicana interurban ready for
track, according to estimates made
late yesterday afternoon by contrac-
tors receiving reports from outfits
at different points along the line.
The first shovel of dirt was moved
on the morning of April s, when the
maiden outfit began work at a point
about seven miles south of Dallas.
From day to day additional teams
and men have been detrained along
the line, until now there are twenty
outfits on the works between Dali
las and Waco. This outlay involves
nearly 500 teams and more are en-
route to the survey stakes.

ment. deliveries to begin within
thirty days. The contract amounts to
more than 100000 and was award
ed jointly to the Kirby Lumber com
pany and the Long Bell Lumber
company.
At the office of Karner Bros. &

struction of the line, it was announ-
ced that four new camps have lust

Kinks outfit.
Engineer Cooper, who is in
charge of the work on the south end
in the vicinity of Waco and Hills

pairing the right of way for rails.
He said that forty-two teams and
men have just begun on a stretch
north of Hillsboro and that a num-
Der of smaller outfits would start
shovels north of Waco Monday
morning.
Thus it will be seen that the poll
cy of preparing simultaneously ali
sections of the right of way so as Il
avoid delay in laying track is being
carried out by the Strickland man.

Pointers for the Motorist.

Just now at the beginning of tn
season, when motorists are agai,
taking their cars out on the road
many automobiles are being exam
ined with critical eye to detect an,
trouble that may have been brought
fabout by the long winters rest.
! One of the things which should be
looked into is the condition of the
rims. 1t may seem like a small
thing, yet rust which is likely to
collect on rims during the months
of idleness is a real danger.
Rust can always be detected by
the appearance of the beads of the
envelope. When the beads show
strongly marked yellowish stain it
is evident that the tire has not been
properly cared for. This stain is
nothing else than rust. which forms
on the rims and is deposited on the
beads of the tire. If it is allowed
to remain it will destroy the tire, /
for it will slowly but surely eat
away the fabric. Moreover, the edg- !
es of rusted rims will become more |
uneven every day.
Further, when a rim is rusted 1t .
is impossible to maintain the close
and regular contact which should .
exist between rim and bead. Water /
will soon find its way into the tire .
to work its usual harm.
After having been out in bad /
weather. if the motorist is careiui I
to sponge tires and rims clean and
then wipe them dry, especially along +
the beads, he will do much to pre-
vent the formation of rust 1t is pos
sible however, that in spite OF the
exercise of reasonable care the rims /
may suffer a little damage. especial +
ly during the winter. In any case 1t i
is advisable to examine the rims
closely from time to time.
Many suggestions on the proper I
care of tires, tubes and rims are
instructively discussed in the two
books "Bibendum, issued by the
Michelin Tire Company, of Mill /
town, New Jersey. Copies will be
mailed free to motorists on request,

CUT THE
RAILROADS. REVENUES
Passenger Officials Notice IA Re
duction of 20 Per Cent of
LATE Years


According to figures compiled by
the railroad officials the automo-
biles in and around Houston have
cut down the passenger traffic of
this section fully 20 per cent. Of
late years the roads have noticed
that their receipts between Houston
and Galveston, Houston and Sylvan
Beach anf other resorts near here
have been materially reduced. An
investigation showed that the auto
mobile was responsible for the loss,
Officials in other sections of the
country have also noticed the same
reductions in passenger revenues
and all agree that it is due to the au-
tomobile. The greatest reductions
have been n0jced near the larger
cities, although the automobiles
have taken over a great deal of the
business between neighboring sta
tions.-Houston Post.
