for revocation on account Of such damage
being given under the law. The opinion
held, however. that as such engines could
not be operated in many cases without the
use Of cleats, and that was evidently the
intention of the law to issue licenses to
their owners, that to construe the statute
in such manner as to revoke the traction
engine license would clearly be disregard
ing the intention Of the Legislature which
passed the Motor Vehicle law.

l. one can predict as yet concerning
the trend that fashions will take for the
autumn and winter. But there is one
thing upon which all those interested in
clothes fashions seem to agree, and that
Is that there will be an emphasis on long
lines. This does not mean that skirts
VIII be long SO as to produce the ex-
tremely tall, slender silhouette. because,
as matter of fact. skirts will prob
ably continue to be as short as they
are at present. but there will be length
of line in decoration that will keep the
silhouette slender. OF course. the bout

It Is not our object to discuss vulgar

tongue Is proper in another.
Our emphasis is directed to the effect

an illusion OF genteel chastity. That Is

much more sensitive, how much more

We are taking standards as they are

Imagination and selishness are the
chief characteristics OF the Lunarian
type OF humanity. The mount of Luna
(Moon), at the base OF the outer per-
cussiOh of the hand, represents. IN
addition to the qualities already enumer-
ated, disposition to be mystical and a
coldness which is eminently in keeping
with its selfshness.
Lunarians love TO travel and IL they
are prevented by circumstances from
indulgng this fondness for getting about
in the world, they do lot of travelling
in Imagination. Jules Verne. the great
French noVeliZer Of science, was a Lu-
marian. 1t Is said that he was able to
depict with the utmost fidelity actually
existing little shops and their store
countries which he had visited Only in
his mind He had either read details
about them or heard Of them from trav-
elers, and stored them in his memory
until the time came for marshaling them
to the best advantage in his wonderful
stories.
Lunarians have many health defects,
or course the reader understands that
to be prone to n health defect does not
necessarily mean that one must actually
become victim to II. Although any
given type is subject to certain all
ments, many of those belonging to that
particular type may escape the ailment
altogether by right precautions. Thin
blood, poor circulation, appendicitis and
other Intestinal troubles are some OF the
ailments of Lunarians. Gout. rheuma-
tism and dropsy also find an easy lodg-
ment In them.
