AUTO THAT ACTUALLY JUMPS
Cars Peculiar Feature Based on the
Principle That Actuates the
Knee of the Athlete.

The jumping stunts of automobiles
in the movies are the result of trick
photographs. There has been produced
in France a light car that does many
of these spectacular performances, not
only pictorially, but actually, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine. 1t is a
small. light car with a speed Of 25
miles an hour. The particular feature
that enables the car to negotiate all
obstacles with impunity is the manner
of connecting the car to the rear
wheels. 1t has Teen compared with
the action of the human knee. A
Jumper bends his legs at the knees,
straightens them out rapidly to get the
effect of a spring. The rear wheels
do the same thing. On striking an
obstacle the wheels rise independents
of the rest of the car, which remains
horizontal. Under test, when driven
against an obstacle 40 inches high,
with an approach sloping at 40 de-
grees. the car was lifted to height
Of 81 inches and landed at distance
of 20 feet, all four wheels striking the
ground simultaneously. On landing,
the spring in the wheel connection
cushions the conclusion of the wheel
with the ground, again resembling the
action of jumpers knee, which
bends under him as he alfghts.

The crocheted tam may be very

Choker collars and variations of the

featured.
New neckwear materials include
white kid, colored leather specially

demand is fair, but naturally not up

Gauntlets of both domestic and for

styles are also very strong. They are
sympathetically linked with the nous

blacks and browns are doing
equally well, whereas the whites,
beavers and grays are trailing. There
has also been a fair amount Of busi-

There is talk of coming demand

sleeveless Crepe Silk Frock May b
Dyed Dark and Worn Under
the Top Coat.

If you have a sleeveless crepe silk
frock Of light color from the summer
days why not dye 1t a dark shade and
wear 1t under the top coat? One frock
of cerise crepe was dyed at home from
its original shade to black. With 1T
was worn a simple guimpe OF tur-
quofse blue georgette with three
quarter sleeves that flared fashionably.
A linked girdle of turquoise blue
"coins" was Topped about the hips, and
the little frock now passes on its
way quite unrecognized.
Nearly everyone has a navy trico-
tine from last season and wishes to
change 1t a bit. The simplest way is
TO remove the sleeves, and. for bus
mess or general wear 1t could be
supplied with cream net guimpe,
but for dressy occasions wear a

of the business is done on two-clasp
gloves, Il and 16-button mousquetaires

On account Of the attractive effects
shown by the various manufacturers

sought by the retailer for use as a

Synopsis-Jane Harding, respect
able and conservative old maid
but never too old to think Of mar
riage = with more money than
brains, is inveigled by strong
minded spinster, Miss Higglesby-
Browne, into financing an expedl-
ton to hunt for buried treasure on
Leeward island. Her niece. Vir-
ginia Harding, undertaking to stop
her, gets on the vessel and Is un-
willingly carried along. By no
means concealing her distaste for
the expedition and her contempt
for its members, Virginia makes
the acquaintance of the Honorable
Cuthbert Vane. Talking with
Dugald Shaw, leader of the expedi-
ton, Virginia very frankly ex-
presses her views, practically &C
cusing Shaw and the other mem
bers of the party, including
somewhat uncertain parsonage
Captain Magnus, and shady
''financier," Hamilton II. Tubbs, OF
being in conspiracy to defraud
Jane Harding. Landing on thu
island is a matter of some ditt1cul-
", Virginia being carried ashore
in the arms of Culhbert Vane. The
party gets settled.
