IMPORTANCE OF ROAD DRAGS

SERGE IS POPULAR
Material viii Be in Greater De-
mand Than Ever Before.
Economical and Wartime Features
Taken Into Consideration, Declare
Manufacturers and Buyers.

When you say serge dress you al
ways think of navy blue serge dress,
don't you?-and you usually think of n
trim little dress, severe enough to be
worn without coat on the street,
with furs in the spring and autumn
and yet elaborate enough to be quite
attractive in the house. All this Is
combined in those simple syllables
"serge dress"-and 1t Is this that is
expected to be even more popular on
the dress bill of fare than ever before
observes New York fashion CORE
spondent. Manufacturers and buyers
of dresses say that because of the
type Of frock will be bound to be pop
ular, and for this reason they are
looking forward to n large demand for
these dresses among the ready-made
output for the spring. More than any
war uniform or any ingeniously de-
vised reversible, convertible frock this
serge frock will serve as the most pop
ular wartime getup.
One very nice thing about the serge
dress is that II always looks economi-
cal even If as matter of fact Ii is
not, and to look very extensively
dressed these days Is not the aim OF
most women. The mere man who sees
n well-dressed woman neatly frocked
in smart blue serge dress will men
tally register his approval of her eco
nomical and, therefore, patriotic dress
Ing. Perhaps the goods for the dress
cost So n yard-for the best quality of
blue serge Is no longer inexpensive
and perhaps the dress all in all cost
500. Still 1t looks simple, 1t Is emf
nently serviceable and it does not look
extravagant. Had the same woman
worn charmeuse of georgette and
chiffon frock worth only half that
amount the man would think her ex-
travagantly dressed and therefore no
true patriot.
The simple blue serge frock does not
have to be expensive in order to be at
tractive. But 1t must be well made.
Any good dressmaker or reliable tai
Tor can put such dress together, pro-
vidcd the model for 1t is suitable to the
figure for which 1t Is intended. How
ever, although great attention must be
given to the fit, the dress should not In
one sense Of the word fit ut all, even
If 1t Is to be worn by woman of am.
pie girth. The charm Of that style Of
dress lies In its hang and cut, but 1t
should not touch the figure. 1t should
follow 1t faithfully, but hang slightly
free from 1t to be most attractive.

Petrograd. Ernest Poole writes In the
Saturday Evening Post. She sat next
to me one day in the small press gal
lery Of the hall in which the duma
used to meet. Now in it's place was
the council. The woman by my side,
I learned, was here as correspond
ent for a social revolutionist paper
down In the Caucasus.
l had been in the Caucasus years
before, and we spoke Of the old town
where she had been born, high up in
the heart of the mountains. The Rus
slams call the women there "the dia-
monds Of Russia" and this woman
was one of these. / was curious to
learn what had drawn her to scene
like this, so many thousand miles
from home. She explained that her
husband had been killed In the first
year of the war and that after that
she had thrown herself into war activ-
tiles.
I'VE don't want TO desert the Rus
sian cause. We are all in favor of
pushing the war through to the end
she told me. "And at the same time
we are doing our part in the work of
the revolution. The president of the
council here, and half the other lead
ers, too, are Caucasians. We are do
ing our share But at the same time
we want to be free from too much
rule by PetrOgrad.'

Been Found to Be Satisfac-
tory Substitute.

The high cost of gasoline is beconl-
ing such a problem that governments
and scientists all over the world have
attempted to find substitute. In Ger
many, where gasoline is almost unob-
tainable, it is understood that a new
MIXTURE st alcohol and 6enzof has
proved satisfactory. A writer in the
Scientific American gives the following
table as an indication Of the results
achieved:
With one part benzol and one part
alcohol touring car equipped with an
ordinary carburetor made AZ miles an
hour and ran a distance of 4.66 miles
upon one pint of the fuel. With one
part benzol and two parts alcohol the
speed was Al miles and the distance
covered AT miles. This shaded down
to SO miles an hour and 3,72 miles on
q mixture of one part benzol and five
parts alcohol.
The same car, operated with pure
benZOl, acquired a speed of ~ miles an
hour and ran a distance of 3.T9 upon
one pint of fuel. With pure gasoline
it made Al miles an hour, running $3.50
miles.
Alcohol is easily obtainable, and ben
zOl In large quantities is now being dis,
titled in both the United States and
Germany from coal tar. So the mix
ture, as worked out by the Germans,
can be had cheaper than gasoline, and
the results are almost as good. In the
