The car Is new in many respects be-
sides the side entrance and the low

the trial trips yesterday and today was
emlnently satisfactory. The seating
arrangement permits sixteen more per-

Science Successful
In Fooling the Moth

Every owner OF a nice fur coat or OF
a set of furs. knows what Is going to
happen to the fur II you give the moth
just half a chance. The fur will be
ruined. Mothproof bags. camphor balls,
cedar chests, storage houses and other
rough-on-moths devices have done
much toward protecting valuable furs
from year to year. but sooner or later
the ever-watchful moth may get the
chance she is waiting for and then,
one gentle shake and the fur will be-
gin to fly.
According to Cosmos, a French scien-
tist has discovered how to make fur
coats, muffs and complete fur sets In
such a way that no moth will ever
touch them. He Is going to give us
skinless furs, that Is furs from which
the natural skin has been removed en-
tirely.
1t may surprise a great many readers
of this page to learn that months are
not fond OF fur after all. As a matter
of fact, It Is only the skin to which
the fur is attached that attracts the un-
