Here we have unique though very
practical costume which can be used
equally as well for all outdoor sports,

and horseback riding.
This costume, which is entirely new
and unlike the usual sporting models,
is being worn by Miss Marguerite Ma
mara, a prima donna in Alone at
Last 1t is made up~of a turkey-red
kid leather, with just touch of bisque
colored broadcloth collar and cuffs to
soften it. The coat is strictly mill
tary style the tight waist line belted
in with a leather belt as a fastening
on the side and reaches to the knees.
In opening the coat, one can see the
little bloomer egect trousers, which
are tight around the limbs, and the
laced boots come up to reach the bot
tom of the trousers. 1t has three
pockets, one above the waist line and
one on each hip, below the belt. The
costume is more seryiceable than any
thing of its kind made in broadcloth.

tests is a conclusion which Dr. NJ
Pritchard Won David believes he has
reached after some years of expert

suits in his laboratory at Orange. This
system of mental tests is to be pre-
sented to the Board of Education CT
Newark for it's consideration with a
view to it's possible adoption, having
already been investigated and favor
ably judged by the assistant superin-
tendent and a member Of the Board.
The Orange physician has invented
apparatus whereby he claims that the
element OF chance in choosing career
for the child may be entirely eliminat-
ed. The system aims to find the ten
denotes of boys and girls by reading

paratus, as words are flashed before
them. The electrical waves are
claimed to register the calling which
appeals most forcibly to the boy or
girl.
