Charleston.-If the choice were
given the average man between an au-
tomobile ride and an attack of scarlet
fever, it is altogether probable that he
would choose the former. However,
automobile riding is shown by govern
ment statistics for the year 1917 to
have caused far more deaths than scar
let fever. The disease claimed only
AZ persons for each 100000 of popu-
lation, while the loss Of life from auto
mobile accidents was SO. Deaths from
motor car spills are increasing con-
stantly, the figures show, while the
fight to conquer scarlet fever is sue
ceeding to a large extent.

CLARA bought a lovely evening
gown yesterday of lime color
chiffon brocaded in silver. The bo-
dice, made of band of heavy
silver lace, had four points of chif-
fon over it that were connected on
the shoulders. The underskirt of
silver tissue ended in two bands of
lace and had an overskirt of chif-
fon cut in points, with the ends
looped up under the last lace
band. All the edges of the chiffon
were picoted in silver. l never be-
lieved that lime color could pos
sibly be becoming to Clara, but it
was-for it whitened her skin
without making her look pale or
yellowish as some greens do.
