Shirred Blouse.

All variations of the shirred blouse
are in demand, and this n has so
many new features that 1t Is ssre to
find a hearty and speedy welcome.
The sleeves are quite novel and ex-
tremely becoming, while they allow
a choice of elbow or full length. The
little wedge-shaped piece at the
front gives a decidedly chic al: to
the whole. In the illustration louis
inc silk Is combined with inserted
tucking and trimmed with a pretty
banding, but there are a great many
possibilities to be found in the de-
sign. In this case the stitched band
is of the material, but 1t could be OF
a heavier silk, while the blouse Is OF
a lighter one or plain material COM
bined with figured. Again, the chem
isette and the long cuffs car with
propriety be of lace in the lingerie
style as illustrated, of tucked or in
serted taffeta, or, indeed, almost any
thing that fancy may prefer. The
lines of the blouse are exceptionally
graceful and becoming, and the mod
ell a In every way be commended
for spring as well as for the imme-
date present.
The lining Is smoothly fitted and
closes at the centre front, but both
the fronts and the back of the blouse
are shirred at the shoulders and the
closing of the waist is made invisibly

Goats to BE HOmeIy.

Another version of the style Of
coats to prevail the coming season
is that they are all to be "homely,"
so unattractive in style that n
buyer would not purchase for her
house. She has excellent taste and
could not be convinced that there
were not to be more attractive de-
signs. This is quite contrary and

very varied and that every woman is
going to YEA what pleases her best,
and that she will find plenty to select
from.

Chicago Grain and Provision.
 Chicago, June 12-Reports of dam age by drought to fall sown wheat in Missouri, Kansas ard Nebraska tm- parted strength to the local wheat mar ket today. At the close July option was up l-4@3-Sc. Corn showed gain of 1-2c. Oats are up 3-s91-2c. Pro- visions were unchan sed to 10c: lower.
 Strength in the wheat market devel- oped soon after the opening. At the start sentiment in the pit was bearish on the better conditions of winter as outlined in the Government report is- sued just before the close of yester- days session. Another reason for the weak undertone was the absence of the rain in the Northwest. During rev minutes of trading there was free sell ing by commission houses and pit trad CTS. but fferings were eagerly taken hy a number of the leading bulls. Be- fore the end of the first hour senti- ment had become bullish and through out the remainder of the session the bears were in full retreat. The change in sentiment was due chiefly to numer- ous reports of damage by dry weather to the wheat crops of Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska. A report from Kansas city claimed that the crops in that sec tion had deteriorated 50 per cent. dur ing the past week and that the grain was ripening prematurely. A decrease of 5,200. 900 bushels in the worlds vis- ible supply as shown by Rradstreet's acted as a further stimulaut to buy CTS. Traders were active the entire day.
 Late in the session there was a mod crate reaction on profit taking. The close was firm July opened 1-4@ l-2 lower at S3 3-S@S3 2GDS3 5s. sold on to S3 1-4 and then advanced to S4 5-sqp S4S-4. Final quotations were at S4 IS. A
 Corn was active and after moderate weakness early in the day the market developed decided strength Drought conditions In Kansas. Missouri ana ent demand which characterized trad ing during the last half of the session. Cash houses reported light acreptances from the country and this helped to The early weakness was due to lower cables and to the easier tone Of wheat.

 Notwithstanding higher live hogs and higher grain, provisions were inclined to weakness.

 As matter of fact such business was put through yesterday and there is no telling how much cotton has been hedg- ed in this manner and while it is thus removed from the counter for the pres- ent, its weight will probably be felt about tender day, which will not be far from the date of the issuing of the next Government condition report and with new crop arrivals selling at a discount of about B per bale. we fail to see where acceptances cn July delivery can be hedged except at a loss.
 Private reliable crop accounts are of a most excellent character, every State without exception sending the best of reports, which is only but natural since favorable crop weather has been the rule since opening of the month and r. ,s but reasonable to think that the con- dition of the crop has improved in con- sequence.
