Rubber Used in Place
Of Down in Upholstery

Rubber is being used increasingly
as a household commodity. The
latest purpose is as substitute for
down in cushions and upholstery.
The rubber is converted into sponges,
of varying dimensions, and is thus
given the springy quality needed for
stuffing Of upholstery, cushions, tops
of large footstools, etc. 1t is this
rubber-sponge upholstery that Is
competing with down. In softness, 1t
is manufactured to be comparable.
When the rubber is totally deodor-
lied, the competitive value reaches
a high water mark. It is true that
down will acquire faint unaired
odor unless cushions are shaken fire.
iquently, and aired occasionally also.
So both rubber and down require
care in order to preserve their fresh
ness, in this use for cushioned furni-
ture or soft cushions.
Rubber is a recognized agent for
rug Innings, the word lining being
used as in the case Of carpet lining,
to mean separate article to be laid
between the floor and the rug or car
pet. In each instance the lining
softens the tread and prevents the
floor coverings above them from
wearing out as quickly as If put d.
rectly on the hard boards. In the
case of rubber rug Innings, slight ad-
hesive quality of the rubber mats
helps to keep rugs from slipping
on the floor. This is a great recon-
mendation as rugs that slip and slide
under foot cause accidents, and what
ever reduces them is desirable. Rub
Der corner pieces for rugs keep the
corners from turning up, and also
lessons the liability of the rugs Slip

Indented rubber door mats long
ago found place for themselves,
both outside doorways, and inside
the house before entrance doors.
Rain cannot hurt them, and the mats
are easily cleaned Of dust and dirt
by washing with the hose, or DOUGH
Ing with water. These floor mats
when deeply indented act as old-time
foot-scrapers. Wiping shoes on the
ridged surface of the mat before com
ing into a house takes off mud and
dust, and makes homework easier

have to clean up the muddy tracks.

ances in the home Of today, rubber

WILL ROGERS
Greatly Loved American
Born Nov. A, lS7o-Died Aug. 16, 1885

VIII Rogers, Oklahoma cowboy
whose homely philosophy endeared him
to the hearts Of millions, is dead. The
wreckage Of the plane In which he
and Wiley Post, famous 1ier, were
seeking new adventures was found
where it had fallen about Is miles
south of Point Barrow, Alaska, north,
ernmost white settlement in America.
Thus ended in tragedy the career of
the ranch hand who had made millions
laugh-probably the greatest and best
known comedian Of his day. His In.
tense interest in aviation caused him
to undertake the hazardous flight with
Post over the wilds of the Far North
For many years he had travelled the
skyways, and In his newspaper column
had been one Of commercial avia
tons, strongest supporters. That fly.
ing should have caused his death Ia
one Of fate's grim ironies.
Rogers career reads almost like fic
ton. He was born at Ollogah in In.
dian territory, November A, 1879. He
attended the Willie Hassell school at
Neosho, Mo-, and also the Kemper
Military academy at Boonville for a
short time. From that humble be-
ginning he rose to become the intimate
companion Of the great men Of the
world.
His stage career began in vaudeville
at the old Hammerstein roof garden

Women Are Less Liked by
Men Than in Former Years

We are in the middle years of a
woman's generation which was Wig.

accomplishments, electric with de.
sire to be worth something to the
world, ambitious to have women of
equal stature with the men who were
their husbands and companions.
The original plan, we must re.
member, was never to incur the re-
sentiment Of men. Women felt very
sure. that such resentment and an
tagonism as they encountered in
their first efforts was the result of
shock and would be transient; they
expected that a few years of &C.
complishment would do away with it,
There has been much accomplish
ment, the best of it unfortunately
concentrated in the hands of a COM
paratively few women, and. more
than a few years have passed. But
the resentment of men has not dis
appeared. Quietly it has grown and
deepened. They are no longer angry
as they were in the beginning when
women did unaccustomed or conspic-
uous things. Men love Individual
women as passionately as they ever
have, but in the aggregate they seem
to like women less. Young girls, mar
ried women, working women and the
widows all come in for a share of
this general criticism.-Margaret

American homes. No matter how busy
he might be, or what affairs were
pressing he always took time to pre-

his newspaper readers. Each day he
would retire to some corner of the set,

ONE HUNDRED MILES
ADDED VIRGINIA ROADS

The Virginia Highway Department
has announced addition of approx
mately 100 miles of secondary roads
to the state primary road system.
Included in the roads added are
stretches in Campbell, Pittsylvania,
Amelia, Powhatan, Accomack, North
folk, Warwick, York, Gloucester,
King William and Middlesex counties.
Commissioner Henry G. Shirley said
that while the shifting of the 100 miles
of roads from one system to another
involved no changes in construction
plans, it did make the roads eligible
for Federal air funds.
Additions to the primary system
are made annually under the ''2 IL
per cent" expansion clause of the
state highway law.
The only road on the Eastern Shore
to be included in the state system
is Main street, Chincoteague, 1.2O
miles.

for general wear combines a navy
wool dress with a three-quarter
length wooden coat in a gay plaid of
tan, red and navy. The coat is cut
on the new fall lines, falling in a
flare from the shoulders at the back
and straight in front. 1t has deep
patch pockets and fastens in front
with navy leather clips. The turned
down collar and wide sleeves are
smart notes. The dress worn with it
is quite plain, trimmed only with
navy clips and brilliant red Ascot
scarf.
