is true Of furs worn as garments, as extra
wrappings or as trimmings.
The fashionable mink capes made Of
what seem innumerable pelts from the
richly furred little animals are much worn
worn by those to whom they are suitable
and others who are dwarfed and paled by
them. theoretically the mink is friendly
animal to the small woman. Being short
furred, his pelts should be especially deco
rative to her, whereas the long-haired furs,
as the fox, are of especial grace and beauty
when worn by the tall woman. But all
theories are adapted, more or less, to per-
sons and conditions.
1t is true that the shorthaired furs. are
best adapted to the little woman. But IL
the little woman, throwing all other con-
siderations save her liking for mink to the
winds, selects wide cape Of that fureshe
will suffer the fate which furs threaten her
extinction. use dguratively the term.
Whatever reduces the glow and charm of
individuality threatens her with extinction
That little woman who seems small and
pale in her furs has been extinguished By
them. The light Of her personality has
been put out The large cape seems to
detract from her height. For her a trim,
long coat were more fitting.
One Of the best examples have seen of
what may be termed fitting character furs
I met one day last week on the Avenue.
She was walking, as all persons who have
regard for their health and desire to be
useful now do. She was a very tall, brown
ish blonde. Her walking suit was Of brown
broadcloth Of the shade Of her hair Over
the short coat Of the walking suit she wore
a sable cape. Her fair face and regular
features were framed by sable turban.
One flash of color in the brown monotone
was furnished by a wing, small, brilliant.
yellow.
Another instance Of fitting or character
furs encountered block further on. The
wearer also was walking. Have you no
ticed how the gait and figures Of American
women have improved since the war began
and everybody walks? This woman, who
swung along with the free, light tread Of
a panther, was in blue-a scant, untrimmed
skirt and half-length coat Of midnight blue
dfvetyn. About her neck was loosely
wound several times q scarf Of black fox.
Her mum was a small, canteen one made

TVyRAPS no less than gowns should be
W character indicators. Furs are
not merely furs. They are the
furs worn by Madame This or Mademoiselle
That There permeates them the subtle
essence of her personality.
The chinchilla coat shown on the lower
left-hand figure is not merely chinchilla
coat. Worn by the figure 1t here enwraps
it becomes a part Of her personality. 1t is
well worn, gracefully worn, which Is part
Of the expression Of the weareE It is not
a long, straight, voluminous coat, of the
type Of huge, bulky wraps that are gener.
ally collected under the term automobile
coats. Observe how gracefully 1t is draped
and note how it blends with the individu-
ality Of the wearer.
The orange cloak, with its collar and
border of alternate stripes of sable and
chinchilla, is a character wrap, not merely
in the general sense in which we apply
character to clothes. 1t is distinctive.
1t is more than that Not only is 1t Of
itself unique and characterize, but 1t
seems to belong prominently to the
wearer who is so fortunate as to pos
sess it.
The wrap half reveals, half conceals, the
gown of chartreuse chiffon that covers a
lining of flesh-colored satin. The orange
colored silk that composes the cloak is Of
a chiffon quality. 1t falls in full, transpar-
ent folds from the wide rolling collar Of
the curiously combined stripes Of sable and
chinchilla. Through what seems an orange
colored shade CLEANS a green gold belt Of
the gown, clasped by the turquoise and
violet ornament.
| show you here also the back of the
cloak that you may see how full Is the
material how numerous its folds. Like
wise that you may see the individuality Of
the formation Of the spreading, winglike
sleeves Around the wrap extends a wide
border Of the mingled sable and chinchilla.
The color effect is Of almost barbaric rich
ness. With 1t is worn a turban Of orange
colored silk, with a border. Of the fur, and
further trimmed by a black plume.
Study the furs you see this season. Save
for hopelessly cheap furs, or those worn by
persons utterly lacking distinction, you will
see that they are not merely furs, but the
furs for the person who wears them. In
no other item Of dress Is the character OF
apparel more apparent than In furs. This

MAKES STEEL HEAL ITSELF
Remarkable Machine Designed and
Constructed In French Workshop
During the War.

One of the most remarkable ma
chimes ever built is In operation at the
great workshop in France, where the
Royal Flying corps repairs its damaged
airplanes. This machine, the only one
of its kind, which was both conceived
and constructed in that workshop, Is
described by Gustave Babin in ILLUS
tration as one that makes wounded
steel heal itself in exactly the same
way as wounded flesh heals.
1t is almost automatic, is operated
by electricity and uses galvanlsm as
its principle. 1t needs only one or two
men to watch it, they being guided by
a chart, showing in many cOlOrs the
piece of metal to be repaired, the ex-
act repairs necessary, the composition
of the galvanic bath, the current need
ed, the diameter of the wires that con-
duct it and the time of immersion. All
this Is worked out mathematically to
the minutest fraction and the machine
does the rest.
1t is used for restoring worn or
broken parts of delicate motors, most
of which are difficult to replace. When
NJ. Babin saw 1t there were lying on
the table beside it parts 1t had just
repaired that would have cost $4,000
and much time to replace. In the
previous week it had turned out 3OC
pieces, all Of great Importance, fol
nothing less is confided to 1t.

What cow-Testinu Showed.

The average production of all dairy
cows in the United States is 100
pounds Of butterfat year, according
to estimates. The average production
of all cows in 40 cow-testing associa-
tions studied by investigations of the
United States department of agricul-
ture was PAT pounds a year. Careful
tabulations Of the records Of the 40 as
sociations show that a production Of
100 pounds Of butterfat year gave an
income of $23 over cost of feed, while
the average income over cost Of feed
for all the cows in these associations
was SAT, or q little more than twice
as much.
Undoubtedly the dairymen who join
cow-testing associations are more pro
gressive than the average, and own
cows and farms that are much above
the average, but the fine showing made
by association cows should be credit
ed, in large. measure, to association
work. Certainly the cow-testing assO-
Citations return many dollars more than
they cost. It is encouraging also to
know that the cow-testing association
records indicate that the large-produc-
ing dairy cows are the least affected
by the increased cost Of feeds. There
fore, every dairyman should aim to
keep them where they will continue
the economical production Of human
food. Economical production can be
obtained not only through careful Sc
lection of dairy cattle, but through in
telligent breeding and skillful feeding.

BEES FOR WAR MESSENGERS
Their Employment Is Said to Have
Gone Far Beyond the Range
Of Probability.

A secret long cherished in the Brit
ish war department has just been dis
cOvered-the use of bees as messen-
gers.
No longer will the aide de camp
spur his staggering horse through shot
and shell to carry the message to the
front. Instead he will don his gloves
and mask, and, going to the portable
beehive back of headquarters, seize
one of the faithful little insects, and
send the well-trained messenger
through the air.
Whoever possesses a receiving outfit
can read the secrets of the wireless
one can cut the wires of the ordinary
telegraph, and the pigeon does not al.
ways escape the bullet.
Therefore, other means have been
sought. In America, the general staff
dreams Of using as dispatch bearer
the bee.
The bee, like the carrier pigeon
guided by its marvellous instinct, re,
turns to the hive from wherever he
may be liberated. Tiny dispatches
which can be deciphered with the mag
nifying glass, can be attached to it,
breast.
But something better still has beer
found. By an ingenious process the
wings of the tiny insect are sensitized
and by means of microscopic phOtOg
raphy the message is imprinted there
| on.
