WONDERFUL RECORD
IS MADE BY TIRES
Diamond silvertown Cord" Brand
Demonstrates 1t Is Great Saver
Of Gasoline.
FABRIC TIRES FAIL TO
NEAR CORD" RECORD
Difference Of Several Miles on Same
Amount Of Gasoline Shown in
Test in Salem.

Unbelievable as it may seem, it was
thoroughly demonstrated yesterday af-
ternoon by j. L. Standefer, representa-
tive Of the Diamond Rubber Co., Of
New York that the new creation in tires
known as the "Diamond Silvertown
Cord Tire" has about the same effect
upon the power of an auto in travelling
on a level surface as a machine coast
ing down hill, in comparison with the
regular fabric tire now in use all over
the country.
1t was conclusively demonstrated by
Mr.. Standefer, in the presence Of Eber
LAHORE, A. t. Steiner, Mark Siddall
and Journal representative yesterday,
that on five pints Of gasoline the big
Cadillac auto belonging to John Maurer
Travelled SO miles on a fabric tire and
on the same amount of gas, covered 1872
miles on the Diamond SilyertOwn Cord
tires. The mileage test yesterday
bnOWcu CVhcluolNOiJ bhat bhO SVihhiVh
fabric tire requires much more gasoline
than does the Diamond Silvertown Cord
tire.
Shows Goods.
With Mr. Steiner at the wheel Of Mr..
Maurer's car, five-pint gasoline tank
set up on the front Of the machine to
take the place of the regular gas con-
tainer and with Mr.. Standefer and the
three other men in the seats, the first
demonstration was made to show
many miles the car would travel on five
pints of gasoline on common fabric
tires. The route travelled was from the
Maurer garage on Center street, up Cen
ter to the asylum, over to State and
down to Commercial and thence back to
the garage. The five pints of gas car
ried the machine two times over the
route, or distance Of S.6 miles, or
equaling 1875 miles per gallon. The
fabric tires were removed and the Dia-
mond Silvertown Cord tires substituted
and on the same amount of fuel, the
auto circled the course three times and
over, or 1872 miles, or egualling 1888
miles on a gallon of gas.
That the fabric tires were given ev.
cry show was unquestioned, but they
failed to travel as far as the Diamond
tire by 5.5S miles.
Big Demand for Them.
= The Diamond Silvertown Cord tire is
an English invention and the Diamond
Rubber company purchased the patent.
II is now being manufactured at Akron,
Ohio, and according to Mr.. Standefer
the present plant can supply but half
the demand for the money.saving tire.
Figuring the price of gasoline at zoe
per gallon, the Diamond Silvertown tire
reduces the fuel expense TO Is cents
or lower per gallon. This saving in
gasoline is a material feature in oper.
ating an automobile and one that Mr.
standefer proved without question.
While travelling up Center street
one time yesterday, motorcycle, rid
den by boy, shot out of blind alley
and hit the auto. The lad jumped off
his wheel backwards and escaped in
jury. The boy emerged from the allie,
at high rate of speed, and had Mr.
Steiner, who was driving the demon
stration car failed to swerve his mn
chine to one side, the boy would hav,
been seriously il not fatally injured,

ing, no blueing is necessary. They are
washed as other laces are washed by
hand.
The pretty nainsook boudoir gown
shown here is made up with sleeves
and trimming of the least expensive
shadow lace which sells from twenty
five to forty cents yard. About two
and half yards of it provide for the
sleeves, trimmings and lace strips in
the cap. Five yards of ribbon an
inch wide is needed and two yards
of baby ribbon. A yard of net ruch-
ing for the cap and five yards of a
very narrow lace edging in one of the
simple Cluny patterns for the gown
are needed. Four yards of nainsook
will be an ample allowance for the
body of the gown. 1t Is easy enough
to figure that this bewitching little
outfit can hardly be. called an extrav-
agance by any one.
The same design can be worked
out in wash silks and more durable
laces of it is not necessary to practice
strict economy. Even in these mate
rials SO much prettiness can hardly
be achieved at so small an outlay of
money, in any other way.

The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser., 1913-09-26

Who wouldn't undertake to own a
pretty boudior cap and gown when
both can be made for about two dol
lars and a half expenditure? Since
manufacturers of lace have said good
by to the old handmade patterns and
have turned their attention to the
original designs that can be made by
machinery, we have a new order of
the f1lmiest and most exquisite laces
that cost hardly more than fine, plain
cotton fabrics. This adaptation of de-
sign to mechanical workmanship has
done wonders in putting pretty things
within the reach of even woman.
These laces are woven in wide f1ounc-
ings as well as narrow edgings and
can be used like any other thin mate
rial. They have made tremendous
advance in popularity this season.
The cheaper varieties of machine
made laces are not specially durable,
but they are not intended for gar
ments demanding durability. But with
q modest outlay one can buy the Ger
man Val and better grades of shadow
lace and be sure Of their wearing
qualities. 1t is laundering that is hard
on f1lmy lace. 1t is so easily done
that garments made with lace trim

supply of water. On some lines ice
boxes large enough to hold 20 pounds
of ice and several bottles of soda are
let into the floor of the lavatory.
There is no functionary correspond

sonal servant, who, On salary equal

he is called, though it is necessary to
pay only the almost negligible third
class fare for him, is carried in spe-
cial servants compartment at one end
of the same car his master travels in,
and is therefore within call of the lat
ter at every stop. Practically every
first-class passenger travels with a
servant, probably half of the second
class passengers, and l have even
seen servants waiting on some thrifty
babu in one of the lower classes.

broad gauge-five feet, six inches-of
all of the Indian trunk lines the
coaches are somewhat wider than one
of our Pullmans. This makes for a
decided roominess in the compart-
ments, these being, on rough esti-
mate, from SO to $50 per cent. larger
than the average Pullman stateroom
and incomparably more spacious than

New Sashes.

To the invention of new sashes
there seems no end. These long
lengths of supple material are an ab-
solute rage in Paris, and they are
worn by women and girls of all ages.
Some of the newest sashes are tied
directly in front, in a large, full bow;
others are tied at the side rather low
down; others, again, are wound round
the hips in Fatima fashion and simply
knotted at the back.
All the art shades of blue are in de-
mand for these sashes, especially the
blue known as Madonna.
For wearing with pure white dresses
we find smart sashes of printed gauze,
which exploit various shades of red in
termingled with touches of black and
deep blue. Almost all the sashes Of
this season are fringed in order that
they may fall heavily.

p NDIAN railway men look upon
first-class passengers as neces-
sary evil, and one general manager
is quoted as saying that not only
was the first-class traffic Of his
line not remunerative, but that 1t
would actually pay to give each pas
senger that presented himself at. the
booking Office 20 rupees ($7) to travel
in a lower class Since he insists on
travelling first class, however, he is ac-
cepted with very good grace, and in
spite of the fact that he is such an ex-
pensive luxury to the railway COM
pany he is, considering the money
paid, quite the best-treated passenger
in the world, writes l.. r. Freeman in
Los Angeles Times.
East of the Rockies in the United
States the average frst-class fares are

most universal 1S pies 6 cents) a

passenger pays. There are also many
regular trains in all parts of America

one is paying two cents a mile in the
east or five or six cents mile in

New Idea for Money Purse.

A farm wagon drawn by two heavy
horses pulled up in front Of the of
fee of one of the leading law firms
in Flushing, N. Y, recently. TWO
men on the seat jumped to the side
walk and yanked off the wagon a big
trunk, which they carried into the
building. At the entrance to the Of
fee they were held up by the office
boy, who wanted to know where they
were going with the old trunk. Aft
er much discussion in broken Eng
lish one of the farmers was admitted
to the Office of member of the firm.
He explained to the lawyer that he
had come to buy a farm at Aubarn-
dale which the firm controlled. All
right" replied the lawyer With that
the farmer called to the man guard
ing the trunk in the anteroom and
told him to bring it in. He threw
back the cover of the trunk, and to
the surprise of the lawyer and his
assistants there lay hundreds of
greenbacks of all denominations, rang
ing from 81 to $100. He seated him
self on chair and counted out $780,
600, the amount asked for the farm.
After he had counted out the money

simpler to manipulate than the latter.
There is always a good-sized table,
either folding or stationary, between
the heads of the berths, and at the

vided in abundance. The finish, as

All the mail trains are electrically
lighted, that medium being especially
preferable to acetylene because of the
fact that it may also be used for the
indispensable fans. Each compart-
ment has two strong incandescents
in the ceiling and reading light at
the head of each berth. An ingenious
contrivance of green baize over a
folding steel frame-an arrangement

work on the Front of Husbands
or Brothers Silk Shirt.

A man doesn't like "fussy" things,
but he'll appreciate bit O. handwork
on the front of his silk shirt. Ask
him! No, don't-surprise him!
If you are afraid that you can't
make the shirt entire, buy one from
his haberdasher. The material best
suited for the purpose is striped
colored stripes about an inch apart on
a white ground-so be sure that you
get his favorite color. Most men are
fond of lavender. Now stamp in the
center of the white ground between
the colored stripes, about two inches
apart, tiny designs not larger than a
ten-cent piece down the front. There
is tiny round fivepetaled flower with
out foliage or stem and with solid
dot to fill the center space where the
petals meet that is easily drawn or
stamped by even the novice, and looks
well. If preferred, one can use the
more difficult bowknot or f1eur-de-lis.
Pad the designs we'll and work them
in white silk floss. Floss the color of
the stripes may be used, but it is
rather conspicuous. There is a quiet
elegance about the white On a white
ground that most men would prefer.

Chiffon Motor Bonnet

Among the attractive new automo-
bile caps is one of two thicknesses of
chiffon, made like a sunbonnet. The
chiffon is green and blue and is shirred
over a wire frame which fits closely
about the head and flares out over the
face. The inside of the bonnet is blue
and the outside is green.
Raffia is also used for automobile
bonnets. A prettily patterned cap is
woven of coloreG straws and is mount
ed over a sn1rred foundation of col
ored silk. A frill of the silk about the
face and neck softens the effect of the
raffia. A silk chin string fastens at
one side under a bunch of artificial
flowers.
