$500, 900 IN SIX MONTHS
roe GASOLINE IN STATE

Connecticut motorists spent appfoxi-
nlately s7,500,e00 for gasoline n six
months. 1t waa peveaied BY figures made
public at the motor vehicle department.
AS these flgufes included all OF the winter
months, when operation Of motor vehicles
is at a minimum. it is likely that the re-
port for the next six months, taking IN
the summer. months, win show an annual
expenditure in this state Of over $4,000
600 for gasoline.
An idea Of the Aagniture Of this esti-
mated annual expenditure may be gained
by consideration Of the fact that II IS
nearly equivalent 70 the amount required
TO pay the operating expenses Of the en-
tire state government, including all Of the
large institutions and other departments
for two years The last session Of the
legislature appropriated about $4,000
900 for the states current expenses for
two years. and the records n the Office
Of Comptroller Harvey P. Bissen show
that. at the rate Of expenditures to date
there Will be a considerable balance al
the end Of the two-year period.
If the $40, 100000 estimate should prove
to be correct, the states income for thu
first year on account Of the gasoline tzs
will approach 100000. The tax. which
Is at the rate, Of one cent a gallon, wen

by month have been as follows:

complete. 1t is figured that an averag
Of &c cents a gallon was charged IN Con
necticut for the gasoline sold during thes
| months. The big drop in January re

planned by the fact that many autoist
did not renew their automobile registra

WILL BE SURPRISE
Middleton & Haskins Not Civ
ing Away Their Display.
Features Are Being Prepared
for Them in Chicago.

! A distinct surprise is promised in
the display which Middleton & Has
kins, taiIors, $50 Kansas avenue, will
have at the Spring Fashion Show to
be held at the city auditorium this
| week. Except that it will consist of
! some outfits of the very latest styles
| now being prepared at Chicago espe-
cially for them Middleton & Haskins
| have established a board of censorship
] but declare the display will prove to
be one of the real sensations of the
| show.
Middleton & Haskins, who deal ex-
! clusively in tailored to measure cloth
ing. say that light grays. light tans
| and medium browns are the rage this
| season and no doubt these colors will
! be featured in the late models in mems
| clothing which the firm will exhibit
/ at the auditorium. But this may be
going trifle too far, inasmuch as
| Middleton & Haskins also cater to
women who demand high class tailor
| ing. especially in topcoats. and the dis
| play may not be limited to men only.
The popular patterns this season
are the small checks and invisible
overplaids in worsted cheviots and cas-
| simere suitings which are worn more
by the young fellows in sport models.
running to more conservative types
for the business man. English worsted
are also shown in a great variety OF
colors in plain mixtures and pencil
stripes. j. NJ. Hasl1ins, a member of
the firm, who recently returned from
Chicago, the greatest clothing market
in the world, reports there is an I'M
usually heavy demand for tweed top
coats which are not worn as much
here as they should be. he says. These
coats may be had in a wonderful ar
ray of light and sporty colors, with
caps to match if desired. The topcoat
Is not a craze, but a very practical
garment for both men and women
taking the place of heavy coats during
the fall and spring season and also for
evening wear.
Palm Beaches More Popular.
Palm Beach suits and tropical
weight worsteds will again be very
popular this summer, probably more
so than ever, this firm believes. The
Palm Beach suits handled by Middle
ton & Haskins are made of the very
best materials and come in for the
same high grade tailoring used in
making other clothing. insuring per-
feet fit, style and comfort.
The principal advantages in buying
tailored to measure clothing, accord
ing to F. z. Middleton, is the wonder
full assortment of materials to select
from and the fact that it is made
after one of the very latest STYLES or
along any line desired. Instead of
wearing a suit that is made up six
months or a year previous. the man
who buys tailored-to-measure cloth
ing, Middleton says, gets the benefits
of the ever changing styles and the
newest ideas as to how clothes should
be made to be popular. Not only
that but he says they are cheaper than
other clothing, and right now are fif-
teen per cent cheaper than they were
a year ago. and from five to eight
per cent cheaper than they were last
fall.
