MUST CARRY LIGHTS
 ON ANIMALS

A part of section three of the regu- Iations covering lights to be displayed on the highways, as passed by the State legislature, reads in part as follows:
 Every person driving or leading half hour after sunset and until a half hour before sunrise, shall carry a light which shall be so displayed as to be visible at distance of 200 feet in front and in rear of such animal" 7" fine of not less than s10 or more than $50 is also provided.
 The intent is good but a person cannot but think what a predicanent farmer would be in who tried to take a herd of cattle to pasture early in the morning during daylight saw ing. Every bovine would have to have a mainmast built on it's back to carry a light, and anyone approach were about to meet with a flock of fire-flys going to a lawn fete. Either this of the farmer to be 100H legal, would have to muster all the people from the neighborhood, borrow the torches from some nearby politi- cal club. and let each person pick out a COW and keep the nome fires burning until the pasture was reached Many persons who drive a Dobbin along the road have a light dangling from the rear of the buggy. but to be in it on this law they would have into action a coal miners headgear with flaming torch on the top of the head-piece.
 Just how a dog would be decorated is hard to determine. unless some one dipped his tail in phosphorus and guying it out in a perpendicular post tion to his head so that he would be within the law"

The fuller skirts which are being
featured ON both suits and frocks
for spring wear are bringing the
silk petticoat back into favor. OF
course the petticoat never really
went out" merchants will tell
you, but every other woman you
meet wears either bloomers or just
a chemise under her outer skirt.
The new petticoats, however. which
have been designed for spring wear
are 50 very attractive that no doubt
many women will be won over to
wearing them again, not because
they think they need them, but be-
cause they are SO bewttchingly
pretty.
Here is one. for instance, made
of pussy willow satin. 1t is plain
but is attractively made with a
scalIoped bottom. 1t comes in all
the favorite petticoat shades oil
brilliant hue as we'll as in gray
blue, black and brown. It makes
lovely accompaniment for the
new spring suit or the new silk OF
satin gown.
