NICETIES MEN SHOULD
 KNOW ABOUT.

No man should primp but primping and keeping well ordered appearance are two different things. There Is a sad lack of knowledge among men as to how to wear their clothes and now to preserve the appearance and shapeli- ness. It is not how much you pay Tor your clothes that always gets the best results when you put them on. It's knowing how to put them on that oft times makes one man with less costlier garments outshine the man who pays the price and lets 1t go at that. True that good quality in clothes Is an es- sential of shape, retention and reliaoiil- ty of fabric, and good taste and style are always commendable. but there are other details in wearing clothes that are necessary to achieve the best effect. Note these little details care fully and put them into practice and you will be surprised how much better clothes will retain their fit and how
 longer they will last. These things take very little extra time. and cost no more, and really are worth while whatever your position in society or your inclination to adhere strictly 10 the fashion edicts is an easy. full size. artistically draping the body and con forming to the general lines, Coats no longer cling to the body. they are supposed to hang gracefully, draping rather than fitting. The coat should cling at the collar and shoulders and nowhere else. The coat collar should expose about quarters of an inch of the linen collar and the sleeves show about as much of the shirt cuff when your arms are in normal posi- tion. When you get a new suit keep the coat buttoned most of the time for the first week that you wear 1t. All garments require a week to drape and adjust themselves to your figure. A new coat should be worn buttoned until 1t sits and fits perfectly; then 1t may be worn unbuttoned. If you are in the habit of keeping your coat buttoned the greater part of the time, leave the first button unfastened to give grace to the coat and at the same time show a bit of the waistcoat This is es- pecially smart when you wear fancy waistcoat.

Smart Reception Toilette

May your shadow never grow less' Is an old toast that would not be &C.,
 cepted with much favor by the women who strive for correct fashion effect this season. In fact, the efforts are being made by all to reduce the shad- DIV to 8 minimum. The silhouette ef
 feet is the one dominant note of all the gowns, dresses and suits for this spring and summer. and never before has one style been so uniformly &C., cepted as this one. Figures hair dress and even the natural walk have been altered to conform with the present styles. How long this fashion will reign Is speculative but 1t Is safe to say that all this season and well into the next, the directoire and empire styles will obtain. They cer- tainly are graceful and picturesque. and one color idea from head to foot keeps well in hand the woman who in other days was prone to inharmonious color combinations. The long, close
 fitting sleeve and the high waist line are seen in everything in the shape of gown or dress. This style in itself insures simplicity in effect. This Is always artistic-hence welcome. When we adhere to the graceful lines of na-

It IS very high, rolls over in a hugh sweep and fastens with a scarf. The sklrts are finished in habit style, and the best effects are fastened in front, Tor the back panel and belt are cut in one. Buttons are the most favored trim mings. In many models the sides lap over a narrow front panel in plait fashion and the skirt fastens on the side under the plait. The skirts just clear the grounds. but as the season advances there is no question but what shorter skirts will be in vogue.

PORARY.

CHICAGO, Oct 19.-No hope of per
manently lower prices for meat was
held out by delegates to the fourth
annual convention of the American
Jackers' Association, the first session
of which was held here Monday.
Michael Ryan, president of the asso
citation, said prices might drop slightly
for a short time, as there has been
some increase in the number of cattle
raised recently, but this boom to
American housewives would be short
lived.
UNLESS many, many more cattle
are grown" said Mr.. Ryan, there
can be no hope of lower prices. More
are being raised right now, but when
prices go down, the production will
diminish, and up will go prices again.
Unless a great many more cattle are
grown, American will find itself an i'm
porter of meat"

POPULAR PREACHER WILL GO TO
FARM IN MEXICO FOR HIS
HEALTH

Rev. Lem K. Long. who was the
popular pastor of the Culleoka and
Burkes' Methodist churches last year,
has retired from the ministry on ac-
count of i'll health. His location was
granted at the recent session of the
conference at Franklin at his own re-
quest. He will move to Mexico,
where he has some agricultural inter
ests. Mr. Long was greatly beloved
by the people of his charge at Gull
leoka and Burkes'. 1t is with the
greatest regret that his friends learn
that his health is such that he cannot
longer remain in the ministry, where
it was believed that a useful career
awaited him.

likely to be chased away on next
Saturday when the locals engage the
Battle Ground Academy eleven on
foreign soil at Franklin. So far this
year the Military have failed to
charge through the ranks of the OPP
ponents to victory, but 1t is fore
casted that the tide is about to emu
late the example of the lowly worm
and turn. Innis Brown, who is now
devoting his entire time to the task
of stocking the c. NJ AS. with pig
skin lore, formerly coached the
Franklin aggregation, and knows the
ms and outs of that team TO nicely.
1t is believed that under his guidance
the Columbians will be able to bring
back the first scalp of the season.The

is likely that number of local root
ers will accompany the team. Fiji
teen men will be carried.
