Fan Saves Coal.

Long Island commuters, who are
among those hardest hit by the coal
shortage, have adopted many expedi-
ents to exc out their supplies and to
make the utmost of what fuel they
have.
One of them tested an idea with so
much success that many other users
Of hot-air furnaces are following his
example. He closed the damper of his
intake pipe, shutting off all air from
the outside, and placed small cleo
trio fan in the cold-air duct between
the outer wall of the cellar and the
furnace.
The fan drives the hot air into his
room heated to a much higher tenn
perature than 1t formerly was when
drawn from outdoors.
He says the cost of running the fan
is of no account compared with the

NOVELTY WOULD WEAR OFF
BoSs Had Right Idea as to How to Do
Away With Excitement
In Office.

He~had been getting to work late
with such regularity that the boss Ire
was aroused and so he resolved to
begin arriving at the office more pune
tually. Anyhow, all the standard all
bis such as the alarm clock falling to
ring, the crowded street cars passing
him up at his corner, were about worn
out In his case.
And so one morning all week he drift
ed with attempted nonchalance into the
office among the early arrivals. The
others Of the office staff at once set
up q clamor.
"What's the matter, couldn't you
sleep last night?" some asked.
HE probably was out all night and
hasn't gone home yet" others re-
marked.
1.-THE clock at his house must have
been an hour fast this morning" said
another Of the gang.
Then the target Of all these re-
marks became indignant. Going to
the boss desk, he made his complaint.
"If it is going to cause so darn much
excitement for me to get down on
time, I guess had better be late ev-
cry day." he said.
"Nope," said the boss, without look.
ing up from his work. "Get down on
time every morning and you won't
cause any excitement"

OXXIHEN she will, she willard

verified by the last frocks to make
their appearance. They establish GER
tain ventures of the stylist as ac-
cepted fashions and emphasize the
fact that women are still devoted to
slender, but more or less straight lines.
Nevertheless there Is a demand for
versatility In graceful frocks and 1t
has been hit upon in many ways. 1t
appears In oblique lines, in flounces
and In TERED skirts, in the manage
ment Of sleeves and neck lines and in
items Of decoration. An exponent Of
this is shown In the tailored dress of
poiret twill at the left of the two
pictured, which achieves a flare at the
bottom Of the skirt portion by means
Of two flounces, bound with silk braid
and put on in lines slightly oblique.
The same silk braid Is applied to the
body of the dress, in groups of four
rows each and on Oblique lines taking
the opposite slant from the fiOunces,
and is placed also on the sleeves and
collar. Small, round buttons and a
