 benefit to dealers who handle them. These

The seaplane shown above is 36 inches long assembled, 

 and is equipped with a pair of 16-inch stream-line, hollow, 

 single-step seaplane floats. The metal parts are aluminum 

 and the wing covering, silk. The motor is a strong band of 

 Para rubber.

^^^^^^^B SHOWERPROOF RIDING COAT. 



^^^^^^^^B For those Avho ride all weathers, a 



^H^^^B^^' showerproof riding coat has been 



^^H specially designed for comfort and serv- 



^^H ice. In the back is a vent formed by a 



^^H fan-shaped saddle extension which folds 



^^^^K inward, while the front extension shown 



^^^^H in the picture permits the coat to fall 



^^^^ comfortably over the pommel of the 



saddle. This coat is made in rubberized 



silk or gabardine in light or olive tan. 



Both the white rubber coat and the showerproof riding coat are 



furnished by a prominent sporting goods' house. (Abercrombie 





THE "LYNER TYRE." 



K tire interliner. as its name implies, is constructed of es- 

 pecially strong, rubber-impregnated fabric, vulcanized over an 

 aluminum mold, so that it fits the tire casing snugly without 

 pinching the lube. The outside of the protector is lightly coated 

 with rubber and a heavy layer of rubber cement which vulcan- 

 izes itself to the casing, eliminating slipping and possible fric- 

 tion. (Pelletier Rubber Co., 

 r.ox 322, Cincinnati, Ohio.) 



CLOTHES SPRINKLER. 



The "E\en-Spray" clothes 

 sprinkler utilizes the prin- 

 ciple of any ordinary shaker 

 with perforated top. In this 

 case, however, the top is 

 made of rubber so that it may 

 be stretched to fit the neck of 

 any bottle, preferably a round / 

 one which is easy to grasp. 

 This sprinkler permits a 

 more uniform and even application of water to the clothes to 

 be sprinkled than can be accomplished by hand. The sprink- 

 lers are packed by the two dozen on display cards with 



easel backs. The cards them- 



^MM ^ selves are packed in strong 



SK^ cartons which protect them 



^5g(^ from becoming soiled or 



broken. (The Elyria Specialty 



Co., Elyria, Ohio.) 



A PRACTICAL RAINCOAT. 



A good-looking, practical 

 raincoat is illustrated at the 

 right of the central picture. It 

 is made of rubberized fabric in 

 changeable color efTect, with 

 raglan sleeves and a simple 

 turnover collar. A belt slips 

 under side-straps formed by 

 the extensions of the pocket 

 overlaps and similar straps or- 

 nament the cufifs. The coat 

 fastens in double-breasted 

 style, with large buttons.

PNEUMATIC INSOLE. 



A pneumatic insole for shoes has been devised, 

 the form of a thin ruliber 

 sack covered with thin, 

 tough cloth and paper. 

 This sack is divided by 

 transverse partitions per- 

 forated with small holes 

 so that air can pass from 

 one compartment to the 

 next. A tiny valve is lo- 

 cated in the instep, by 

 means of which the in- 

 sole may be inflated. If 

 desired, a rubber tube with bulb attached may be fastened to 

 the valve, the shoe may be put on and laced up, and the in- 

 sole then inflated to suit the requirements of the wearer's foot.
