The necessity for builders of motorcars to take into consideration the vagaries of feminine fashion has been established by a French Court (says the Paris correspondent of the Daily Mail.) The Count De Kergolay reecntly bought a closed motor-car which was intended] for the use of his wife when shopping and paying calls. When the countess cam© to use it, however, it was found that the roof was not sufficiently high to clear the long upright plumes which are now being worn in women's hats. Every time that she or her friends used the car the plumes in their hats suffered damage. The count therefore brought an action to obtain either a cancellation of the sale or an order for the biulders to supply a new body. The Judge before whom the case was tried has ruled that it is the duty of the builder in supplying the car to take into account the fact that long plumes are now being worn. He granted the count a rebate of £40 on the price of the car.

Thousands have learnt to rely on SHARLAND'S MOA BRAND EGG PRESERVATIVE because it is absolutely reliable, and always gives the best results.
