Corsets and Motor Cars

fIon Ilt-BltS.
 The up-to-date motor manufaxt xturer has been compelled to add to his technical staff a corset engineer" whose duties., in way, are just as vital to the success Of the make of the new model as those of the motor expert. You would be surprised to know that the motor concerns are in- finitely better informed as to the makes and the variations In COT sets than the ordinary woman who worries about her figure
 The Knowledge of what is doing in the corset world and the utilization of 1t means thousands of pounds in sale and profit to the manufacturer. Howy Why. for one thing, 1t determines the style of motor-ear upholstery. This is explained by the fact that. whereas None style of corset in vogue today may encourage a luxurious lollng position ,f the wearer; another style. in vogue tomorrow, may compel severely upright position. Con sequently designers find il incumbent to study other matters besides motor engi- neering.
 Advance information being desirable the services are enlisted of fashion scout" usually the buyer for some biz establishment going abroad, who sends the most reliable information as to how the figures Of the women will change with the seasons. When anything radical promises to become the vogue a sample corset may be forwarded to the motor factory so that with a living model cushions may be designed to give the greatest comfort to the wearer and at the same time achieve that harmony between the fashionahlv arrayed passenger and the car for which all the smart manufaetur- CTS aim.

in Glasgow. February 23. 1742. while the Maryland family was founded by John. son of James Somerville. son of Lord Somervile of Cambusnethan, Scotland. The North Carolina family of the name are also from this origin. The fact of similarity of motto simply indicates that probably most of the Somervilles had the same origin in Scotland. The Somer- villes of Dreshane. county Cork, and those of Dnder House. county, Somerset, England. both have the motto, Fear God in Life" The Somerviles who enjoyed the title of Barons of Athlumney and Mer- edyth, used the French equivalent of the same motto: Grain Dieu tant que tu viveras," while the family of Cambusne- than, county. Lanark. Scotland, from which the Maryland family is sprung, prop erly use the Latin equivalent, .'Donec rursus in pleat orbem."
 To Mrs. H. c. C.. who asks for informa- ton about the Reading family
 In this country there were several first settlers in New England In colonial days of the name of Reading. Bedding or Red dan as the name was variously spelled. There was John in Sandwich, Mass, before 1G76. Joseph in Boston who came with Governor Winthrop; a Miles who was probably brother of Joseph, and a Thaddeus in Lynne The name takes its origin from the place Reading in coun-  ty Berks or Bedding in stirlingshire The coat of arms of the English family is as follows Argent three boars' heads, erased sable. Crest. a griffin sejant holding in the dexter paw garland of laurel all proper.
 To l. w. F., who asks for information about the Flagler family in this country. have been unable to find any informa- tiOn about this family. Will some of our readers help us out on this subject?
 To the correspondent who inquired about the coat of arms of the Tylers of vir- ginia. have been unable to find any coat of arms for the Tylers exactly like the reproduction you sent. The motto: "Spes mea in Deo,' is not borne by any of the English Tylers, although 1t is borne by 16 other families. The coat of arms borne by large family of Tyler in vir- ginia Is described as follows Sable on a fess erminois between three mountain cats passant ermie. cross moline. between two crescents gules.

 Provisions while not active, were firm in sympathy with hogs and the advance in corn. There was a fair in- vestment demand and pork was bought on the assumption that Europe soon will be needing it.

trap nest the bullets. Right here the re- suits of breeding will begin to appear. From certain matings the bullets will practically all be good layers. From oth- CTS they will be inferior. Retain and breed from the liens which give the best results and in a short time the whole flock will carry this inherited tendency toward heavy laying.
 Retain every breeding male which shows the ability to throw good bullets Use them as long as they are capable of fertil- izing the eggs of their mates, regardless of their age. I believe that tested breeding male is worth a small fortune to any poultryman.
 In conclusion, would like to say word about egg type. I know that many peo- pie hold the view that there Is no egg type, no physical characteristics which indicate the ability to produce many eggs With this I differ. I will frankly state the points which I like to see in my layers.
