Auto Routs 'Rickshaw.

With the awakening of the far East
has come the elimination of the jim.
rickshaw and other archaic forms OF
transportation by the motorized equip
ment of the West. A utility truck,
purchased in India by company OF
progressive natives, has been convert.
ed into motor buss for the use of
their own people in Rangoon. In spite
of the tremendous heat of the tropics,
the investment is paying handsome
profits Both the body and seats are
of native design and manufacture.
Side curtains have been attached to
protect passengers from the dangerous
rays of the, midday sun.

Send Baggage Ahead.

The travelling public paid the Brit
ish railroad companies S42,000,000 for
excess baggage in 1918, and this not
withstanding the fact that the Eng
lishman boasts that he travels light
compared with the average American.
The only way that this great amount
can be explained is that the English
man invariably sends his luggage In
advance and thus pays for what ordi-
narily the companies would carry for
nothing. Here, or elsewhere, every
passenger is allowed fixed amount
of baggage.
The rate on excess, like that in
America, is fairly heavy, and this.
together with the big revenue derived
from carrying baggage in advance,
which has to pay certain rate, helps
to make up the forty millions that are
added to the companies receipts.

PORTER DESERVES HIS TIP
New York Newspaper Points Out
Some Facts Perhaps Not Gen.
orally Considered.

The fact that sleeping car porters
are in the habit of accepting tips
from the passengers whom they serve
has been brought to the notice Of
constituted authority and an effort
will be made to put stop to that
practice, comments New York pa
per.
OF all forms of graft-if graft 1t
can be termed-that of the colored
porter is the least annoying and the
most honestly earned. He never fails
to render useful service for his tip.
He polishes shoes, answers questions,
brings glasses Of water, waken pas
sengers on time and regulates the
temperature. He never asks none
tary reward, but as the train nears
the destination he plies his whisk-
broom with cheerful briskness cal
culated to bring quarter forth from
the most tightly buttoned pocket. In
comparison with the licensed hat
pirates, or that fiercest of Broadway
hrigands, the captain of the walters,
the sleeping car porter is self-sacri'
ficing. To deprive these worthy per-
sons Of their whiskbrooms is like de-
priving the Laplander of his reindeer
or the Indian Of his basket work.
1t should be remembered, also, that
1t is their gracious manner rather
than their jingling quarters that
makes them popular in the best so
cial circles of their race.

of three, or more, fastened to a steel
or strong wire pin. OF all the pieces
made to be pinned on they are the
easiest to keep in order and the cas-
lest to adjust.
An example of what short curls
will do in accomplishing a dressy
couture is shown in the illustration
given here. This hair dress rs no
, ticeably pretty, but imagine it with.
out the curls and it will not be no
ticeable in any way.
Some people cherish prejudice
against wearing false hair of any kind.
But women have helped out scanty
locks for as many ages as history re-
cords, by supplementing them with
extra pieces, to very good effect. There
seems to be no objection to a false
tooth from any quarter. Anything
which really improves the appearance
will always be used and with the best
reason in the world.

&C VERY one will welcome the re-
L turn, after a brief absence, of the
fashion for short curls, worn at the
side Of the face, for evening coiffures,
and at the back of the head whenever
those who like them care to add their
charm to the hair dress. They are
the easiest and most fetching" of lit
tile finishing touches, when they can
be worn at all. 1t is said by those
who ought to know that some women
cannot wear curls. Just why this is
so is apparently among the unknow-
able things. But every woman can
experiment for herself and be influ-
enced by the result.
The little curl may be made at the
time the hair is dressed, and of the
natural hair. If one has naturally
curly hair, it is easy to manage. But
few people are so blessed, and the lit
tie curl is generally a very satisfac-
tory bit of artifice. At the hair deal
ers short curls are made in clusters

EASHION DEGREES that the choice Of
q millinery shall have an almost un-
limited scope during the coming fall
and winter seasons. When we con-
slder fabrics one may elect to wear
velvet or felt or plush or satin, and
also combinations of these materials
AS to size, hats proceed from the
small. br1mless, close-ftting turban to
the wide-brimmed picture type,
through all graduations In width of
ortm. Shapes are as varied as the
fancies of those who design them.
There are, therefore, hats big and
little, brims wide or narrow, and
crowns tan or short.
For street wear the small hat is
sensible and smart. The snugly- fit
ting, well-shaped turban reaches it's
highest development when made for
wintry weather. With variety Of
trimmings, as great as that in shapes,
and with particularly brilliant novel
ties at hand, the turban is flourish
ing thing of beauty decked out in
decorations that are simple but eff
fective. =
Something of the diversity in size
and trimmings and styles is more
plainly set forth in the illustration
given here than can be conveyed by
mere words. These are all velvet
hats, new in shape and excellent in
design Each one Is a style of many
of its particular kind and each is we'll

among that great number classed as
sailors, or as "the canotier," the brim
IS irregular. 1t widens at the left
side and shows a small upward curve
at the front. The brim edge is bound
with silver braid and a pretty and
distinctive touch is given by the little
bow of this braid, which Is mounted
at the back, as If it terminated the

Roses In silk and metallic effects
set in foliage and ferns are mounted
against the brim In a manner that
convinces one that the maker of this
hat was an artist.
A wide-brimmed velvet hat with a
section Of the front brim cut squarely
away, making a short, straight line in
stead OF curve, is trimmed at this
point with two short ostrich plumes
and a short loop and ends of velvet
ripbon. The ribbon is fastened to
place with two Jet bands. The big
black hat has warm place in the
regard of women, and deserves 1t.

is trimmed with bands of silver beads
and an ornament of spangles re-
sembling small wings.

Tires are worn out more rapidly IL
the car is operated quickly than il a
good average speed is held. Not only

cause it to wear, but when the car is

the tires at times leave the ground.

BerIin.-The official war office
statement says that the German sue
cess on both the right and left wings
of the French battle line continue.
The situation in the east is described
as satisfactory.
Paris.-That the Germans are
moving westward was indicated in
tOday's official 3 o'clock statement,
which announced that German cav
airy are now signalled in the vicinity
of Lille. Fighting of the most des-
perate character continues, it is stat
ed in the communique, with practi-
caIly no real change in the general
situation.
The Germans are declared to have
attempted an attack in force on the
French line, which is holding Las
signy, but failed to gain the slightest
advantage.
Paris.-The Germans are believed
today to be attempting an encircling
movement on their own hook. The
official communique, telegraphed
from Bordeaux, reports the presence
of the German cavalry. near Lille.
It is believed here that this is mere
ly a accommodating force, but mas
much as the main line of the railway
that will be used for the relief of
Brussels and Antwerp passed through
Lille it is possible that the Germans
may have started to destroy this line.

region are now threatening the Ger

The Germans are reported here to

Prussian frontier. Russian forces,

island of Jaluit, seat of government
of the Marshall Archipelago in the
South Pacific, explains that the "oc-

not for the permanent occupation Of
the place"

of the war Office during the latter
