I couldn't get Geo. interested. time he had spotted their Club, Town-touring _Eight, which had a trunk onto the back of it big enough to carry any suitcases except the kind we happened to have. Iso it had a top, four wheels the feller called a nickel radi: 3 ven-fifty, extra And then as a finishing touch, this salesbird threw up the hood and showed us the engine in the nude. There, he says, is just your cz There was enough tubing in thing for it to hang itself and salesboy told us all the secrets the course-you-know-what-thisds voices they use, to give you a chance of merely saying yes indeed, instead accidentally “calling the wrong turn on the ributer or stalling on the engine before it got a chance think dash is he say, what tor that the of | to stall on you And then the salesman closed the reverently, and says he'd like te give us a demonstration, and Geo. 1 well, give me a card instead how much could you allow on my And the feller And George says ays what have you? + brand new 1918 And the s well, I'd have to see it could say positive, but I SO course we had figured on a few dred, so that is perfectly satisfactory, we will all n, you will hear from us, and he says, any time, I'm always able and | only it wasn't a nickel, it| power house in one of them of-| to hear, which is the correct etiquette for “farewell forever” in that man's business. And then we left, and George says well I don’t think much of them Ramblers, 1 never did, leave us go over and look at the Stationary- Duplex, that’s only $700.15 R. S. V. P. by return ma And I says yeh, lets, T see by the |ads they are putting' out a semi- {open, combined business and trouble, family car, with five individual kes, one for each wheel, and one vour bank acct. ItU's a seven pas- model, with plenty of room for five in it, 1d I heard Doctor Salar gets forty-five miles to the gallon of water of his. And Geo. says yeh. So we went on over and give this one the double ephis, but we couldn’t afford on account the Stationery Co. wasn't willing to allow on our old faithful. Besides, | wouldn’t give us more than 3 y |the payments, | George's on life in their favor before the notes was signed. So there wasn't nothing for us to ay only that'syperfectly, satis ou will hear from us again just as Soon us you hear from us. Then we beat it over to where the used cars | held down the floor space. I tell you, Jennie, Geo. says to me, |@’you know, he says, in a whole lot | 1 car is cheap {of ways a good second h: |a whole lot better than a new | car. | Take one now, that's been in a |good family where it's been treated like a baby and only driven seven or eight hundred miles and the paint and | upholstery and engine is all in per- fect condition, he says, and the family are only turning it In for a newer model because they can afford to, he says, well now, that's what I'd like to |pick up at around a thousand. And | I says, well, if you ever do see such |a car you'd better pick it up and run, I say: Inside the Asis Used Car Co. the genteel old dependents of the auto family was waiting in hopes some kind person would take 'em out the | pound and give 'em a good home in a |snug garage. Some models was practically new, around 1917, but, as the keeper says to Geo. while show- ing him a big old boat, a Mammoth is always a Mammoth, you need never be ashamed to drive one, no matter how old they get, and how does the public know anvways but | the car belonged to your dear | over 38c| they | and wanted to insure | actory, | grandmother and that you just can't bear to give it up in favor of & newer model? And Geo. says yes Indeed, these old fellers, they got better material in them then some of the new ones. And then he ast how many miles had this one been run, and the apple sauce king took a slant at the speedometer to see, but it was broke. And it's a funny thing, but I have always noticed where, in used cars, the speedometer always breaks the first of any part. * k% WELL anyways, we looked at every- thing he had. There was one real £ood buy, a hearse, on an old Fierce | chussis, and, as the feller pointed out, all we would have to do was remove the body, put on a sports coupe in its place, trade in the chassis for a coupla old shoes, or what have you, and we would have a practically new car. Well, we didn’t buy ft, for the Asis Co. would only give 23% cents for our old bus and wanted to take it on | consignment, at that. So we told the chief there that he would hear from us, we would call again. Then we got out, and Geo. says, well, I never did think much about | second hand cars anyways, they may look good, but a person never Knows, he says, I wouldn't take one on a gift. 1 Well then what are you gonner do? | T says. And Geo. says, I tell you what, I am gonner fix up our old lzzie, he says, all I need is a few parts such as practically everything under the | hood, a differential, bearings, a trans- mission, head lights and a little of my time, that car ain't so bad, the | fenders and the rear wheels is prac- | tically as good as new, he says, or jwill be with the coat of Youpainter varnish I will put on. And it won't cost me practically nothing, on account I will get all my stuff from Joe Bush. Well, I couldn’t stop Geo. from do- ing this, so I went along to the Five & Ten while Geo. bought the parts for his car. Joe Bush.hustled around helping him pick out the stuff until Geo. had pretty near a van load, but no one thing cost over a dime. 1 say, says Joe at last, while you are in here why don't you get a full set of new tools for your bus as well? And Geo. seen where that was a good idea, 5o he got a button hook, a box of hairpins, a corkscrew, a tube of glue and other necessities, and we took ‘em along home and put them Public Approval of Bright Pink Suit Follows Plunge Into Fashions for Men BY STEPHEN LEACOCK. | HIS morning I put on my pink suit for the first time, and I must say it just looked too| cute for anything. I felt, of course, that it was an innova- tion and a great change, but I was glad to be in it T suppose everybody has been read- z about the new fashions for men nd how over in London and in Paris all the men are wearing suits of pink and sky blue and chrome vellow. All the London and Paris papers that I have seen say that the new suits are a great success and that the idea is all the But, as I say, every- body knows about that and I don't need to explain it. I only wanted to about my own suit. had it made out of a pink gec gette undershot with a deep mag ind crossed with an invisible slate blue so that the material shimmers in | he light with different coiors, and | hen I walk up and down in front of | # long mirror (I bought the mirror at the same time the suit), the| colors run up and down my back in | ripples of moving t he magenta color seems to suit my figure, though everal of my very best friends say hat personally they think they pre- fer the slate. I had two or three of them over in the morning to sit in my room and watch me walk up and down in front of the glass. Of course, ordi- narily at that time of day they would be at their business, but 1 just tele- phoned over to them and told them that my new suit was such a darling that they simply must come over and see it. So they came over and we just sat around while I put on one part of the suit after another and| showed it off in the long glass. | They all agreed that the color was st lovely and they said they were zy to get a suit like mine. | One said he thought that for him- | self the color might be a v and that for his age he would rather | have a bottle green or a peacock blue something & little older, but I told | m that I was quite sure he could wear anything just as young as any-| body. In fact, I know a man who is | past 60 who can wear pink for eve- ning wear, and who looks just as young in it as anybody else would. * k% K ERHAPS 1 should explain, as I know a lot of my friends would like to know about it, just how I had my suit cut. The coat is made rather | full at the chest and then brought| in at the walst line and cut out again very full about the hips with gores and with ruffled insertions of pleated chiffon at the point where the back falls to the hips. Tt has a ruching round the and is wattled around the colla an accordion frill brought round just below the ears and then thrown hack 80 as to show the back of the neck. Some of my friends thought that in- stead of a ruching they would rather have had a little frill of lace so cut -=a to show the throat. But I doubt pre- | | neck | the back dips in above the hip i i TG “I MUST SAY I FELT A LITTLE STRANGE WHEN I WENT OUT ON THE STREET IN IT.” whether, with my throat, this would be so good. The buttons are in large size of mother-of-pearl and are carried in a bold line edgewavs from the shoulder o the waist with two more buttons, larger still, behind at the place where Everyhody agreed that the buttons {are very bold, but they thought that they would be quieter on the street than in the house. The waistcoat is cut very simply and snugly so as to show the curve of the stomach as far as possible. It has just one little pink bow at the bottom. but beyond that it is quite plain. One or two of my friends thought that it might be a little bit too severe, but most of us agreed that though it might seem severe indoors it wouldn't be so at all out of doors, especially on high ground. The trouse: are cut very snug around the line of the hips with gored insertion at each side so as to give lay for leaping or jumping and then are flared out to the knee where are quite full and wide. They i, absolutely, only a little way be- | low the knee, and, of course,they need to be worn over clocked stockings or else [ have to have my legs tattooed. They seem terribly short when I put them on, but everybody says that it i is the length they are wearing in Paris and in London and that some of the men are even cutting off their trousers half way between the waist- coat and the knee. I must say that I felt a little strange in my pink suit when I went out pres- ently on the street in it. One of the men asked me to lunch with him, so I went out in my suit with just a little straw hat, half size, and a bunch of violets in the lapel of my coat. I felt quite shy at first and quite dif- ferent from my usual self, and I think I even blushed when some one came gcross to my table at lunch and told me he had never seen me look 50 well. J WENT over to my office in the afternoon, and the very first per- son who came in to do business with me said he was delighted with my | suit, and so we sat and talked about it for a long time, and he told me of an awfully good shirtmaker that he could recommend 1f I wanted to get soma |of the new shirts they are wearing. | He sald that over in London they are all going in for fancy shirts to match the new suits and that the colors they wear are the most daring you can imagine. He told me that a friend of his, quite an elderly man, had just got back from the other side * & x x wearing a canary-colored shirt with pussy willow tassels round his neck and that it wae really quite becoming. Other people came into my office later in the day and we did nothing but talk about the new styles and how delicious it is going to be for men to dress in all the colors they like to wear. On my way home In the street car, which was rather crowded, a man got up and gave me his seat, and, of course, I thanked him with a smile that showed all my teeth, but I didn’t speak to him because I wasn't sure whether I ought to speak to strangers, in my pink suit. ‘Well, when I got home I first stood and looked at myself in the long glass for quite a while. And then—I don't know just why my new pink costume and put on_ the old gray suit that I had worn the day before. " It was made, as far as I re- member, about two and a half, or else four and a half, years ago. It has no ruching, crocheting, or insertions in it, and it isn’t flared or gored or pleated, and it doesn't sweep boldly round the hips or the neck or anywhere. It has a bulge here and there where I have sat on it or knelt in it or hung it up on the electric light. The pockets of it stick out a good deal from having been filled up with pipes and tins of tobacco and fishing tackle. There is more or less ink on it, but nothing that really in- jures it for use. 4 Which suit did T wear the next day? (Copyright, 1925.) =g Dirigible for Polar Flight. RIDTJOF NANSEN, the famous Arctic explorer, is returning to the North Pole country after nearly 30 years spent in other work. He has announced that he is to head a Ger- man expedition which will make a long flight across the polar regions in a specially constructed dirigible of 5,000,000 cubic feet capacity, or some- thing like twice the size of the Los Angeles. A crew of 50 men will be carried and the flight from the Mur- mansk coast, north of the White Sea, to Alaska and back is expected to oc- cupy four weeks. The principal ob- Jectives of the voyage will be scien- tific. Photographs to become bases for maps of the Arctic regions will be taken, soundings made in the ocean and other data assembled. It {s hoped that the expedition will be able to start in 1927. A Queer Railroad. (QNE of the world’s oddest narrow- gauge railways is owned by the Duke of Devonshire at Eaton, Eng- land.
