WAR CUTTING OFF
DRUG SUPPLY

Washington, Aug % Whole
sale druggists and drug manufac-
turcrs of Florida and other States
are very much disturbed over the
soaring prices Of drugs and the in
ability, in many instances, to secure
drugs at all, owing to the European
war. Germany and France, and es-
pecially the former country, have
supplied the crude drugs and chem
icals that have entered largely into
manufacturing processes in the
United States and with importa-
tions entirely cut off the American
manufacturing chemists and whole
salcrs are cup in the air. In letters
to members of Congress they say
that the prices of coal-tar products,
laboratory supplies, such as yaccines
and pharmaceutical articles made
i'm Germany have increased alarm
ingly and the prospect is they can
not be had at any price in a short
while.

Coming Season.

The three-quarter coat finished at
the bottom with a closely Killed frill
win be a feature of many of the g a
sons taiIor-mades, and the folded sash
OF figured material will be another. A
very advanced tailor-made model in
brick-red duvetyn had a knee-length
coat with a killed frill some six inches
deep around the bottom. A sash of
oriental silk was draped round the
waist with one long folded-over end
hanging down the back slightly to-
ward the right side: At the back the
skirt Of the coat was cut into a pointed
tab, which buttoned over onto the sash.
The same pointed tab effect was shown
in the new sleeves, the tab being cut
In one with the shoulder, and the long
sleeve put in separately. This is a
most effective little coat, and so thor
oughly up to date that it is certain to
remain in fashion for many months to
come.
Another stylish model is exhibited
