The leaders of fashion are still
holding on to the antique styles.
Things that In our grandmothers'
davs were considered fashionable
are being clamored for today. Styles
of 1880 seem to be in demand. The
new. classy goods that are arriving
at the Whitley Jewelry companys
store all speak of the antiquated de-
signs, especially in the brooches'
layelliers and rings. The lavelliers
are so very attractive, being dllfer-
ent from the festoon styles or a rev

might call a tassel style. There IS
such a variety that it would be nara
to describe all. I was attracted 10
those set with pearls and diamonds
in platinum. Perfectly exquisite
some of the stones found in these
odd brooches, rings and lavelliers
are the pearl, diamond, topaz, coral,
Jade. amethyst, aquamarine ana
neridot. Remember, the more an
tioue the more fashionable, so
get out the old sandalwood boxes
and see what grandmother used to
wear.
Every sensible woman cares about
her complexion. "You would be

are of both complexion and hair,

SHARP ADVANCE
 IN WHEAT MARKET Vigorous Support Is Given To Buying And Prices Go Up SENTIMENT IS BULLISH Corn Rallies Sharply During the Clos ing Hour of the Session and
 Closes strong-oats Steady
 and Provisions Weak.
SEN TIMENT IS BULLlSH

Chicago, July 2S.-Thei tide turned in the wheat market today following the steady decline of the last week or more. and prices advanced sharply, final quota tions showing net gains of 115d6%c. Corn also closed strong but oats, with the ex- ception of the July delivery, were weak
 Provisions broke severely, and at the close were from s21sc to s1.30 lower than the previous close.
 2 The bulge in wheat occurred during the final half of the day, and the top prices were 25s@39sc above the low mark of the season. Considerable congestion was manifested in. the July delivery, and the price of that option f1uctuated nervously on light trading. One of the principal feat ures of the days trading was persistent buying by a leading elevator interest," whose total purchases were reported in the neighborhood of 100000 bushels, prin- cipally of the September option.
 The market opened weak at declines of 1s@a4c to Bc, July being at s1 05h and September s1. .02a4g1. 0S14. The heaviness at the start was due to the weak cables, a continued heavy movement of new wheat
 
 of heart of the former bull leader, who was credited with liberal sales on the previous day. The vigorous support by the leading cash interest, however, soon caused a much steadier feeling. and as the session advanced sentiment became de- cidedly bullish.
 Additional black rust reports from the northwest, unsettled weather in the win ter wheat belt and the discovery that hoy dc oF ''worked'' late yesterday, stampeded shorts during the final hours. An advance of Sc in the price of the July delivery at New York had apparently no effect here. The top for July was reached at $1.09, and for September at $1.059s. The market closed strong, with July at the highest point Final figures on September were at S1. 05h.
 Corn prices rallied sharply during the final hour of the session, owing to cover ing by shorts, prompted by an improved speculating demand on the bulge in wheat The July delivery was cpngested, and the price ranged between 69c and 61c The market closed strong at net gains of 1s@ 14c to 5sc.
 Oats were weak with the exception of a furry in the July option which caused a bulge of more than 20 in that delivery. At the close prices were Nc lower to 11Ac higher.
 Provisions were weak throughout the entire day because of general selling in- spired by a 10Q15c decline in live hogs Local packers apparently had withdrawn their support, and with little demand prices were easily forced down. The de- cline in hog prices was the result of lib- eral arrivals at all western packing cen ters, the total movement today being 9S,- 800, compared with 53,7OO the correspond o close were 321kc to S1. 30 lower than yesterday 8 final figures. The decline of $1.30 was on October pork, but the price was only 8 nominal one, bid of $1S,50 being made but not accepted.

STOCK MARKET IS
 FIRM AND HIGHER United States Steel Dividend Is
 Much Discussed BROKERS ARE RELIEVED Long Expected Steel Dividend Is An nounced and Little Change Fol-
 lows Except Union Pacific
 Goes Over 200.
BROKERS ARE RELIEVED

New York, July 28.-Incidents consid cred by speculators of most importance were the increase in the dividend of United States Steel stocks and the rise in the Union Pacific stock to above the long predicted price of 200.
 In the case of the dividend on United States Steel the compromise rate of A of 1 per cent for the quarter was con sidered an adroit settlement of g.. per picking question, as between per cent and a per cent rate. The per cent rate would have been considered in con- servatiye quarters as being perGpitate and as leaving nothing in the immediate future for speculative imagination, while the retention of the per cent rate might have weakened the effect of the professed confidence In the future growth of earn ings Professional operators have felt that the price of United States Steel was likely to react even with an increase in the dividend to per cent. Everything put out short on this theory constituted an element of strength, not only in Steel but in other favorite speculative stocks. Satisfaction with the quarterly report on
 
 corporation was not unmixed The s29,- 34l,OD of earnings for the quarter are seen to be, with the exceptions of last, year, the year of depression in 1904, and the year 1901, when the corporation was formed, the smallest earnings reported for the corresponding quarter in any year.
 In the matter of the 4,075, ,939 tons of un- filled orders on hand also it Is seen that while the figure rises above that for any Intervening quarter since that ending De- cember 31, 1907 yet there is found an un- broken series of excesses over this figure for every quarter before that since the one ending Septembr 30, 1904.
 That date carries the comparison back to the period of depression from which the industry had not emerged after the reaction of 1903 This more detailed analysis of the report both as an ex- hibit of the present state of restoration of the steel industry and fin it's promise for immediate further progress was of some what sobering effect on speculative senti- 1nent. The absence of an official state ment of the course of events since the date of the report was commented upon in view of the use made of early intima- tions that such a statement would &C., company the report.
 The rise In New York Central was sus- tained by renewed rumors of Hartman investment in that stock. The soft coal CTS were helped by hopes of a revival of demand by awakening industrial activity An important short interest was believed to be covering in Reading. The up-turn in the wheat market called attention to the possible consequence of a crop scare with the critical period still to be faced Final prices as a rule were little changed from last night and showed mingled gains and losses.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales. par

 STILL GOING UP Reports Of Crop Conditions
 Are Very Bullish GAIN IS 12 TO IA POINTS Continued Dry, Hot Weather in Texas Makes spinners Uneasy Over
 Future Stocks and Buying
 Sends Prices Upward.
GAIN IS 12 TO IA POINTS

New York, July 2S.-The cotton mar ket had another sharp advance today, but lost part of the gain and closed barely steady 12 to IA points net high CT. The opening was firm at an ad vance of to Il points~en a renewal of yesterdays buying on increasing confidence in the publication of a bull ish August condition from private sources before the week-e and the government report next week. All the longs were heavy sellers for profits around the initial figures. but after some little irregularity the advanc- ing tendency was resumed on a con tinued general demand until Decem- Der reached 12.47c and the general list recorded a net gain of 23 to 20 points.
 Renewed reports of hot dry weather in Texas and claims that spinners were becoming uneasy over next years sup plies leading to a better inquiry for forward shipments undoubtedly held the advance. but the main factor seemed to be the preliminary reports of a prominent local authority sug- gesting crop deterioration rather than improvement in Georgia, Alabama, Mis- sissippi Louisiana and the Carolinas for the month, while there were ru- mors that the condition figures of the National Ginners' association, expected on Friday morning, would be very bullish.
 The advance of about 75 points from the recent low level attracted heavy selling, however, later In the day to realize on early purchases and re- newal of bear pressure on the theory that low condition figure had been discounted. The market closed some Il to 12 points off from the top.
 Receipts at the ports today, 649 bales, against 2334 last week, and 3380 last year. For the week, 10000 bales, against 18,s77 last week, and 28,579 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans, 92 bales, against 1903 last year, and at Houston, 80 bales. against 1922 last year
