dressmaking _
is economy.
Every stitch that your needle takes in your own
home, upon a dress or a suit or a coat, saves some part
of a dollar.
Dressmaking at home is true economy. More
women are going to practice it this Autumn than for
many a year. And the Rowland store is going to help
them—for it has a splendid supply of the very fah‘
ricS they will require.
It is Only fair that those of us who can, should
buy our clothes ready for service. When we do that,
lwe are keeping other people at work and giving them
a chance to make a living. But we must expect to
pay them for their work; pay them more this season
than ever before. i
There is a patriotic vicwpointtoo. Have you
ever thought that all the hundreds of people making
women's clothes might be put at. work/to advantage
on things required for the actual winning of the war?

Rconier's icoord breaking perform-
ance at Saratoga last week aroused
almost as much enthusiasm among
Ming men as the followers of trotting
exhibited when China set the record
of l258 in Lexington six years ago.
From the very beginning of harnésa
racing the stop watch has been tho
yardstick by which the capitolty of the
trotting horse was measured. and
every performance in which the best
time .‘-n record was advanced l‘l‘omv
2:30. in lath to 1:58. in 1912. was re-
garded its a landmark and hailed as a
great event in th e history of the
spoil. Followers of the runners on the
other hand. have paid little attention
to the time teat. especially since En-
glish influence became so marked on
the American turf, and many of the
greatest of modem thorouglibreds have
have lived and died without making
an attempt to lower the record of one
mile. It would puule any one except
a regular. indeed, to recall such an at~
tempt 'aince Salvator set the record
at ltttlfiig over the straight course at!
Monmouth Park in that).
Kramer's record is clearly entitled
to be classed as a world‘s record—tho
fault-st legitimate performance ever
made anywhere by a months horse at
the standard diatnnce of one mile.
Some of the racing manuals and record
kt credit (‘allilan with a record of
1:33 l5. Lintrtleld Park. near london,
England. but it is well known that the
Linxtleld course is down lilll about
half the distance. and so is not a
course on which a legitimate record
could be made. Some iears RIO. when
kite shaped trotttng tracks were in
favor and a fast record sometimes
meant thousands of dollars added to
the value of a horse. one of then kltos
was built at Klrkwood. lleL. with tho
finish a good deal lower than the start,
so that horooa were going down hill all
the way. The performance! made
there were challenged and, put-pity
thrown out by the National Trotting
Association. and the same reason ap-
plies for ltmorlns those made on the
down bll| course at Linxfiold Park.
That Reamer is capable of a still
faater mile would seem to be indicated
by the clrcumatancea of hi! wonderful
performance at Saratoxd. "0' ran
without a promptor, for one thing. and
lie was not well rated. perhaps because
he had no peacemaker. When Salva-
tor iltn his mile in 1:35if. he covered
the. first half in 0:47“ and the last
half in 0:48. with not more than a
quarter of a second'a difference be
tween the latest quarter and the slow-
est. one in the mile. it was a perfect
piece of riding against time. Roamer
ran the tlrat,balf at Sultoga in 0:46
and the last but 1190:? 4-5. The no
quarter was covered it 0:23 3-5. the
second In 0:22 2-5, the third I 02241-5
and the fourth in 0:24 3-5. There was}
thus a difference of noflly three" aec-‘

A little later
the same season be till a mile and a
quarter in 2:02. which then was prob-
ably tlie best performance ever made
at the distance. Whisk Broom was
credited with a much footer one. to be
sure. but it is alnhm certain that when
he was officially timed in 2:00 at Belv
iuont Park the tinigr made a mistake
and stopped his watch at the ludaea'
