(if the many and diverse styles in evening gowns one of the most pop ular savors strongly of the Turkish harems. The sketch illustrates this mode. The soft, full skirt is puffed under gracefully and caught at the lower edge of a foundation, the effect resembling the Turkish trousers worn b\ th<* beauties of the harems. The hodiec is little more than a band of cloth held up by strap* over the shoul ders. The material of the dress is rose taffeta with gold metallic flow ers. Many gowns are seen in this style developed in plain silk or satin, entirely free of trimming, the rich ness of the material making decora tion unnecessary . The harem tunic lengthened by a deep frill of lace is another form in which the Turkish influence is apparent. In this style the puff generally comes Inflow the knees. The linger!" blouse of tine white voile and handkerchief linen beginn to make its appearance. This is one of the signs that spring Ls on its way. The blouses this season or flue Irish or drawn work The drawn work edges collars and cuffs, or else out lines moths in the front of the waist, and band embroidery is often intro duced along with it. The filet lace is sometimes inserted with embroidery in over-and-over stitch along the edgefc Pilot lace bids fair to Ih? very i>opular. It is eombined with embroidery net in dainty white collars and fichus to wear with afternoon dresses. Who Am I?

These figures ? 320,817 ? represent the actual number nt' cars manufactured by us August 1st, 1916, and delivered by our agents to retail buyers. This unusual fall and winter demand for Ford cars makes it necessary for us to confine the distribtion of cars to those agents who have orders for immediate de livery to retail customers, rather than to permit any agent to stock cars in antici pation of later spring sales. We are issuing this notice to intending buyers that they may protect themselves against delay or disappointment in securing Ford cars. If, therefore, you are planning to purchase a Ford car, we advise you to place your order and take de livery now. Immediate orders will have prompt attention. Delay in buying at this time may cause you to wait several months. Fntbr your order today for immediate delivery with our authorized Ford agent listed below and don't be disappointed later on.
