Low Footwear Constantly Used WIII Make Troubie When Other Shoes Are Donned in the Autumn=— Precaution Is Neglected. There are women whose slenderness ! of ankle and wrist remains unchanged no matter how much avoirdupois the rest of the figure takes on as years ad- vance, but the average woman finds ' difficulty in keeping her ankles trim after thirty—especially in the summer time when the high-buttoned, boot Is exchanged for low-cut slippers and pumps. If low footwear {8 worn con- tinuously through the summer it is found that buttoned boots, donned in the autumn, pinch cruelly unless the buttons are moved. As the ankle, spread because of its unconfinement during the summer, recedes in size, the boot becames loose and another change of the buttons is necessary. This trouble may be obviated if the buttoned boot is worn at least part of the time through the summer, and as such boots are now considered best form for street wear with formal cos- tumes, a pair of dainty patent leather boots with buttoned tops of suede or cloth will not only assist in keeping the ankles trim, but will complete one's summer wardrobe satisfactorily. The white buckskin buttoned boots, worn with white taflored costumes, are smart and attractive in appear- ance and are comfortable even on the warmest days. The ankles of the woman who has been a good dancer in youth seldom grow clumsy as years advance, for the firmly knit leg muscles allow little op- portunity for a deposit of fat. Rising and falling on the toes 50 times night and morning will help to harden the ankles and keep them more tender, and so will walking with the toe per- sistently placed on the ground before the heel. ”l FICHU EFFECTS MUCH VARIED [Any Designs That An Suitable May Be Worn Without Doubt of Their Acceptance.

Difficultles Confronting Creat Britain In Organizing an Eflective Fleet of Airships—Pilets Are Very Hard to Find. London.—For some time past it has { been very dificult to make people think in anything but terms of dread- naughts and superdreadnaughts. Now,l however, the topic of thought, so to speak. is slowly but perceptibly veen ing, and we are beginning to think in terms of dirigibles. Almest every pae per that comes to hand has an article in it peinting out the great value of the rigid alrship and the pecessity of building a large number of this type of aerial craft. There can be no doubt as to our need of this class of air vessel, but few persons realize the extreme costliness of building the rigid dirigible and keepinz it In an . efiicient state, The price of a Zeppe- lin is about £50,000 sterling, and a hangar to hold two of these vessels costs about £80.000. Then there are repairs, gas, wages and a hundred and one other things which necessi- tate a large running account to meet | them. H :. To build a fleet of forty dirigibles, i which we should have to do to en- !'able us to get on even terms with the aerfal squadrons of other countries, | would cost us about £2.000.,070, and then hangars must be provided for all of these airships, which means the expenditure oi another £2,000,000 at least. | Where these air vessels are to be built and how long they would take to construct are also matters of im- portance, seeing that we have not as | yet turned out any really satisfactory i alrships of large size. Arrangements, wlno, have been completed in Germany whereby the same of Zeppelin and Schutte-Lanz dirigibles to foreign gov- ernments is prohibited. Then, even supposing that we counld purchase forty of these aerial cruisers in the space of a year, we should find considerable difiiculty in obtaining pilots qualified to sail them. The off- cial list published by the Federation ! Aeronautique Internationale shows | that, up to Dec. 31, 1912, thirty-two aeronauts’ (balloons) and eleven air ship piiots’ certificates were granted to persons in Great Britain. There {8 no gainsaying the fact that, as comparcd with any other kind of aerfal craft, the rigid dirigible is the air vessel of today. In carrying capao- ity and radius of action, in its pow ers of remaining steady in the alr and flying noiselessly aided by the wind, the rigid airship has no rival It has, of course, its disadvantages— its immense bulk, which makes it & very noticeable object in the sky, and its unwieldiness, which necessitates a host of attendants to grapple with it when it leaves the earth and when ft alights. The Zeppelin airships, too, are extremely heavy. The lifting ca- pacity of Zeppelin L 1 is twenty-seven tons, but owing to its own great weight its useful load is only some seven tons, ! As regards tne construction of the rigid airship, in this type of air ves- gel the chape of its envelope {s not dependent on internal gas pressure. A huge framework, made of aluminum in the case of Zeppelins, 18 provided with from eeventeen to twenty sep- arate gas chambers. Attached to the framework 18 a keel which, in addition | to serving other purposes, affords communication between the two carl., the latter carrying the motors, guns, bomb dropping appliances, etc. The propellers, of which there are four, | are fixed to the frame above the cars. | The framework is covered with a rub- | bered cloth., The Schutte-Lanz dirf- gible has a wooden framework, as has also the French rigid Le Spiess. The bomb drouping arrangomontn carried by the Zeppelins are known to be accurately sighted. Quite recently the Hanea made excellent practice at comparatively small targets on the ground from a height of over 5000 feet in the afr. It 18 well known, too, that for attacking other air craft the Zeppelins carry flve guns, prob.|bly machine guns or weapons of small | caliber. Two of these guns are can ried in each of the cars, and the fifth is mounted on a specially constructed platform on top of the airship's em~ velope. 'GROWS OATS ON HIS RAM 8eeds Sprout In Fleece and Ohle Farmer Drives Crop to Water When Rains Fail, Galllon, O.—In addition to a fine coat of wool, a ram owned by David Lynch, a farmer, has a covering of flourishing oats in his wool. Then it was rajned on. Next the sun shone brightly. This continued several days with the result that the oats sprouted. Lynch calculates that in case of drought he can save this crop of oats, since, it the rain won't come to the crop, he can move the crup to the rain. Dog's Skin on Young Glrl, Bt.
