PROPELLING LIFE PRESERVER.
Assists the Swimmer to Float and
Propel Himself Through Water.
Innumerable contrivances In aid the
swimmer, whether novice or expert, to
travel In I hp water have been devised.
Also innumerable forms of llfe-preserv
ers. An Oregon nmn decided that the
two could be combined, and designed the
automatic propelling life-preserver shown
In the illustration, which not only assists
the swimmer to float, but also aids in
propelling him through the water. The
device resembles a double-headed sky
rocket, having a handle In the center, to
be grasped by the hand. Adjacent to
each end are elastic webs, something like
an umbrella top. These propelling life
preservers are employed In pairs, one for
each hand, the swimmer using them by
moving his arms first forward and then
outward and rearward, as is customary
In swimming. This will collapse the webs
on their forward movement and expand
them when they are swung outward and
rearward. On account of the buoyancy
afforded hut little fatigue will be. experi
enced in swimming rapidly, the swimmer
being able to support himself a long time.
Joys of Corn Meal.
Joel (""handler Harris. Ill 1'nclc Remus' .Macp.zlne.
But corn meal is such a rich and ver
satile product that It lends Itse'f to all
days and ail meals. For breakfast It can
be turned into batter cakes light and
luscious, or into (waffles that me'.t in
one's mouth, or into muffins which take
on new sweetness in their tin boundaries;
or 3'ou can have your corn In the shape
of grits, yellow with butter, and of happy
digestibility.
Ther.. for dinner, there is the corn
pone, large, brown and hot from the
oven, ready to be seasoned with a sauce
of butter, and washed down with freshly
churned buttermilk, with an accompani
ment of cabbage, or collards, or turnip
salad, or new snap-beans. If for any
reason tjie corn pone is not desirable?
though the farmer cannot Imagine any
thing that can lake Its place with a
healthy and an expectant appetite?there
are the dumplings to fall back on, the
dumplings boiled with a mess of greens.
This dish is a time and space-saver, and
there Is also a butter-saver. The dump
lings should never by any chance be al
lowed to grow cold before serving. For
supper there is the hoecake. which
should be of a generois thickness, and
It should be eaten with gravy distilled
from the Juice? of a country-cured ham:
or, if you please, a dish of mush and
milk. And. then, the day's work being
over and done with, the tired man or
woman, and tHe children, weary with
play, may fall on their couches and for
get. In sweet and dreamless slumber, tliu
grisly troubles of the world.
It is better to have a good name than to
be forced to pay cash.?Puck.
?f>01?The present vogue for long lines
has revived the graceful long coat, than
which nothing Is more becoming to the
woman of tall, well-developed figure. The
red!ngote shown in the illustration Is
one of the most stylish of recent designs,
and is. besides, a most comfortable gar
ment for cold weather wear. The wide
tucks extending from shou der to waist
line in the front body portion not only
produce a graceful effect, but give extra
warmth to the garment, while the
straight tucks in the center-back add ap
preciably to the apparent length of t'ie
figure. The skirt portion fits smoothly
over the hips, while the neees-ary full
ness at the back Is provided In an in
verted pleat. The pattern provides for
both mandarin and pla n e at sleeves,
either of which is good sty'.e. Any of
the new cloths are suitab'e for making
the coat, while braid or fur may be
used for garniture. To make the me

OLD "VET" OF THE CRAFT.
j El wood Havnes Pioneer Among Au
tomobile Builders.
| Elwood Havnes. th" veteran of builders
| of automobiles afid well known as tli:?
| pioneer in the automobile field, cons-nted
to talk during the New York show, and
grew reminiscent, although, as he said,
"to become reminiscent Is said by many
to be a sign of old age.'- Mr. Haynes de
signed the first automobile in 1KUM and
completed it in 1894. This was a single
cylinder affair with high wheels. In 1806
M-. Haynes entered a Haynes in the
first contest of the times, the Times-Her
ald contest in Chicago. The machine he
entered had double opposed cylinders. In
the same year he received J4o(? frequent
ly for exhibiting at state fairs, and peo
ple canine from all around to see the won
der. The Haynes went the rounds of the
fairs. In 1!*ki the first Haynes car was
shown at Madison Square Garden, and
has had a plac" of honor ever since'at all
shows. The first oar was of seven- horse
power and this car was turned out
steadily for four years. In llKxt th
Haynes entered Brooklyn. N. v.. and was
the first automobile seen there. The fact
that the car was driven irito Brooklyn
was so remarkable as to earn pages 'in
,h! ?Pa?er^ In 1R'Ki Mr. Haynes made
the first side entrance body, and today's
models are but a reversion to this typ->
In 1KI7 Mr. Haynes introduced ignition
by low tension magnetio. anil used this
until lflu.5. when It was abandoned for
the high tension, jump spark ignition
since used. In WW the first four-cylinder
Haynes car was shown.
WHY WORRYP
This Doesn't Sound Like Hard Times
Talk.
Disquieting reports which have been re
ceived from various cities where auto
mobile factories abound, have .excited the
pessimists, and this class of people ex
press freely opinions that business Is go
ing to the demnition bow wows. Things
are different In Buffalo, at least, for the
George V Pierce Company is not onlv
keeping its entire force at work but Is
adding to the force regularly. The out
put of the immense Plerc? factorv has
been sold, over J.VHK),?;0o worth of cars
having been sold in one day to the agents
of the Pierce Company, thirty of whom
were In attendance at the New York show
to look after customers.
GLIDDEN TOUR TALK.
Makers Want a Change in 'Plan
Next Year.
There is a question and It is agitating
the touring motorists of America. The
question has to do with the 130S tour of
'the American Automobile Association.
The question has to do with the plan of
operation, and it has to do directly with
the advisability of a central point with
a tour' out and back each day ranging
from l.rft to 2f*0 miles, or a tour straight
away, as has been carried out in the past.
The question has several sides. The
amateur tourists really desire a tour
which will start somewhere and go som?
wliere. while the automobile makers of
the country want a tour which will re
duce the expense to a minimum. Thers
can be little question that the annuai
tour for the Glidden trophy has come
to be a business-like affair for business
men. and that a majority of the entries
are made for business purposes. The
amateurs number about one in ten of the
entries. The makers must therefore be
consulted. Providing the trip goes
through the country, the suggestion has
been made that it follow the shore line of
the country from Virginia to Maine, and
providing It converges night!}-, the sugges
tion is made that it start at Mount Wash
ington and make the Mount Wash
ington Hotel the nightly gathering point.
The makers of the Great Arrow car. the
George X. Pierce Company, who won the
Glidden trophy twice and had four cars
In last year's tour with a perfect score,
have been asked for an opinion, as have
other makers, and upon the receipt of
the opinion of the makers the decision
will be made.

I selvage black taffetas, guaranteed to be

feature throughout the week, and in
other dress we?ves for suits and coats
espaclal notice is called to imported chif
fon broadcloths, black Kerseys, imperial
Venetian and black astrakhan and Persian

vor is a splendid line of all-wool suitings

fifty distinct colors. For housewives there

THE PAI.AIS ROYAI* has widely di
vergent attractions this week. The army
of dolls, the countless books, the "mil
lions" of Christmas cards; the glittering
jewels, dainty pockethooks. bewitching
neckweur. longest of gloves; the Christ
mas aprons and the vast gathering of
other "fancy goods" have transformed
the Palais Royal, and It now is a great
bazaar. Where are the "stap'r goods?"
i Crowded Into Inadequate quarters and
disgracefully treated! They will prove
the most substantial and best of this
week's attractions. Such will he the im
pression created by a reading of today's
Palais Royal page advertisement. It seems
to be a question of "How happy could I
| be with either?" and, of course, Santa
Claus and his treasury of gjmciacks win
the day and the really useful are rele
gated to the background. Suits, wraps,

11104. When Mr. Yanderbilt completed
th.it great drive other autoists asked him.
with their breath coming in short gasps,
whether lie "had been able to remain .on
the ground all through." Mr. \ andcrbilt
assured his friends that his car Jumped
oftentimes almost a foot from the ground
and the entire world cried "Fake;" that
is, the world which was not at Ormond
that year. All this is history, but today
they are about to require a car to qualif>
at Ormond to do twenty miles at the rate
of one hundred miles an hour, and few
wonder at the requirement, believing that
It will be done. That is a rate of 38 sec
onds to the mile and is not considered so
very much out. of the ordinary. 1 he com
ing Ormond meet may even see the great
record of two miles in .">S 4-5 seconds cut
Into very considerably, although fieak
cars are to be barred from the events.
Stock cars are likely to beat the yander
bilt record of .til seconds, anil special rat
ing cars constructed in America are likely
to beat the great steam record of Mar
riott. Who is there to tell of the won
derful speed possible when the American
makers make their trials? And who is
there to tell when Europe sends over .:s
best to oppose the Americans in their
onward progress? The battle of the Amer
ican and European giants and the battle
against time will be noteworthy this year
on the tide-roiled sands, and history will
go forward yet another notch. The time
is ripe in March for great doings, and
both the American makers and the im
porters nr*? ready to give old Father rime
such a drubbing as he never received be
fore. The chances for competition, too.
are first class in every way. for the Amer
ican and the European makers are pretty
evenly matched, and the contests are cer
tain to be the closest in history. 'Hie
time for the meet could not have been
arranged better, for March is reallj one
of the finest In the south, and at that
time the visitors will have recovered from
their present panicky feeling, and will be
in shape to take things easy and enjoy
themselves.
Mecca for Motorists.
Mount Washington, the mecca for not
less than 800 touring parties during the
I last year, promises to be once again the
I center of Interest next summer for tour
! ing competition, hill climbing and so on.
1 The plan for a six-day endurance run in
the Mount Washington district, the final
' day to include a climb up the mountain
for touring cars. Is not so much out of
j the possibilities as might be thought, for
i motorists generally commend the plan,
and Messrs. Anderson and Price are not
1 averse to once again taking a hand in
the promoting of an automobile carnival
of international importance. Nor are
motorists generally averse to taking part
in any event promoted in a district so
altogether delightful for touring.
Horses Bide in Autos.
Pedestrians on Broadway w~re treated
to an interesting spectacle a few days
ago when three new 3^-ton Studsbaker
electric trucks paraded down Manhattin's
chief thoroughfare. The trucks, which
! were built for the H. B. Claflin Company,
j differed in no respect from the ordinary
' commercial vehicle, but the striking part
of the parade, which was an object les
1 son in itsi If. was that instead of horses
drawing the three trucks the horses were
. the passengers, and. what is more to the
I purpose, they seemed to enjoy their ride.
Medium Cars Hard Hit.
i From observations made at the New
York shows it seems likely that the finan
cial stringency will not affect the sales of
the highest priced cars nor of the lowest
priced so much as it will those of medium
price. The argument is that thos ? of
great wealth will sti'.l be able to buy what
? they -please, while the buyers of cheap
cars, being as a rule not investors, but
persons of moderate though certain in
comes. will not b; seriously affected- The
cancellation of orders has been generally
for cars of neither extreme in price,
bought by that large das; o' persons
who make much morey, but whose earn
ings vary and who live up to tiieir in
comes arid almost never have a surplus.
Don't Swear! Join!
Every motorist who has used cuss words
because of having to take out different
licenses in different state? should lend his
support to the congressional bill prepared
by the American Automobile Association
requiring uniform laws for motor vehi
cles in all states. The first step toward
lending support to the bill is for thos?
who are not members of A. A. A. to join
nlsliings. etc. Now is the bargain time
for such goods.
S. KANN. SONS & CO.?One item which
will particularly Interest holiday shoppers
tomorrow is the opening of the new
book department on the first floor. This
section has completely outgrown its
former bounds, and in its new space will
be especially appreciated by business
men who have but little time to spend In
book hunting.
Women's t.iilored suits in most unusual
values at the price quotations is another
announcement to interest the feminine
portion of the readers of this firm s ad
vertisement In today's paper.
A talk of silks appeals to most women,
and the dress taffeta offering for tomor
row is full of attractive reminders.
That Thanksgiving is close at hand Is
indicated in the offering of porcelain and
china dinner sets that will be needed for
the great feast, and a sale of attractive
silverware at unusually Interesting sale
prices.
The house, alsi. will need fixing up for
Thanksgiving day. most probably, it
there are to be invited guests, and with
the low sale prices quoted on curtains
ind portieres in tomorrow's offering
vComen will want to hurry down to take
advantage of the bargains.
Black stoles, ruffs and capes, at almost
half price, that represent samples of a
i maker who devotes his time to making
goods of this character. And this an
nouncement will be gladly read by those
who wish something of this character for
wear on Thanksgiving day especially.
GOLDEN BERG'S Thanksgiving sales

! well an annual opportunity will be of- j
i fered to purchase suits, coats, wraps,

other attraction. These garments are in
various colors, are handsomely trimmed,
beautifully made and faultlessly cut.
Housekeepers, interested In the comfoit

cially repaid by a visit to this establish
ment before Thanksgiving day.
