of sartorial effects. They are the old
army cclors, deep navy blue and bright
red, and are striking as we'll as youth

serge suits show dashes of the scar

get away from the severe, mannish eff
fects in women's tailored garb, and this
season many snappy touches in the
way of big, graceful collars, dashing
cuffs, fancy buttons and swinging panels
or sashes give a sprightly and feminine
suggestion to the indispensable coat and

warm days of autumn and not meant at
all for a winter model. IS pictured in

plaid trimmings of the same material.
The style of this little suit is pleasing.y
youthful and the Ines are very graceful,
the coat fitting the figure just enough
to define it's lines without emphasizing
any curves conspicuousy. The three
quarter sleeve is used in many OF the new
models for demi season wear, though the
wise woman will not invest in a suit of
this sort if her purchase must do duty
far into November or December. The
more dressy types of tailored wear will
no doubt have these abbreviated sleeves
all through the winter, but for general
street wear, when once cold weather has
set in, the mannish, full length sleeve
Is by far the most satisfactory and ap-
propriate.
The silk serge suit pictured is in q
pretty shade Of blue. the plaid trim
mings being in the rich green, black
and yellow colorings of familiar Scotch
plaid. Like many of the new suits. the
skirt in this model repeats a trimming
feature on the coat: that is, the row of
buttons on the skirt panel matching the
row Of similar smaller buttons on either

collar extends down the front in square

cord ornaments which match those on

The Home Gardener.

IF there is one month more than another
/ during which chrysanthemums re-
quire the greatest amount Of attention it
is August The soil is then more or less
filled with roots, the suns rays are at
their hottest, and if they beat directly
on the pots the delicate rootlets in con-
tact with the sides are very liable to be
dried up and killed, with the inevitable
result that the lower leaves will wither
If the pets can be sunk in bed Of ashes
sufficiently deep to exclude worms the
danger will be lessened but even then
much water will be necessary, though
not much as when the pots are eX-
posed to the air. If no such bed is avail
able. some method should be devised for
shading them. at least during the heat CT
the day. Aphides are exceedingly trouble
some this year on plants of various kinds
and ch:ysanthemums in many gardens
are infested with them.
Spraying Effective.
Fortunately, spraying if persisted in,
will effect cure. 1t should be done
in the evening after intervals of three or
clean, and in each case the insecticde
should be sprayed off with clean water
On the following morning. Any of the
pose may be used, or a solution Of soft
soap will do quite well. AS regards ari-
fetal fertilizers. the time to apply them
is when the pets are filed with roots, not
before. A teaspoonful in q gallon OF
water will be strong enough. 1t may be
given once or twice d week.
The idea of the mixed border is that 1t

very imperfectly carried out. the fault
being generally most conspicuous about
the present time. when the early flower
ing perehnials are over and the late flow

are. of course. many that flower in the
middle of the summer, and the best OF
them should find place in the border:
but the most useful plants at this season
are ANIMALS. Certainly, for an unbroken
succession of flowers ANNALS are indis-

fertilizer is applied to them, and they
presently throw up new foliage and often

DOWERFUL medicines are apt TO make
stains on silver spoons which are
hard to rub off, and the latest convent

very attractive and there seems no rea-
