skirt whose tightfitting foundation shows through filmy, shimmering tunic of tulle.
 Chemise dresses inspired by the moyen age frocks are being worn in discriminatory by stout and slim alike sometimes with dire results. A frock which hangs like a sacque from the shoulders to the heels is scarcely becoming to a well-developed figure, whose charms may be displayed in many other smart styles. But when donned by a slender woman whose charm is youthful buoyancy, it is ir- resistible. These gowns give sil- houette quite different from the con ventionalized one of the day, aptly called the plumb-line silhouette. Satin seems to be replacing taffeta in the popularity of the public, but serges and gabardines are continuing then vogue and for the tailored costume nothing is quite so smart, Usually braid in various widths, plain in it's weave, binds and trims these suits.
 The new style of dress called the coat-dress, with it's waist resembling a coat, yet fastened to the skirt, thus making a one-piece dress, is admirably adapted to this mode of trimming These dresses are having a tremen- dous vogue in Paris and no doubt are forerunner of suits with long coats
 The jumper waists which are worn over guimpes of tulle, organdy and chiffon suggest a charming and prac- tical way of remodeling an old gown into the newest styles. These jump CTS are made in figured and plain ma terial, with edges bound and wrink- led carelessly across the hips. Some. times they are finished with a sash of the same fabric, and again with sash of richly contrasting color.
 Sashes are a happy thought for summer and winter dresses, as they fCIIulI IuS uOS Ol d Dlt Ol 'FIl COlOl 70 charm the eye and please the color sense. The mummy sash which now swathes the body, twined from the tir If the bust to below the hips, if ar tistically used on a slender figure, is most effective.
 The bottoms of tunics and skirts are cut in points. scallops and squares bound with bias strips of silk or with woven braid This is unique mist which adds a distinct style note te a dress, and one which is often easier to accomplish than to turn hem ant | add facing.
 The vogue for materials in striped effects, such as golfine, corduroy corded velour and fancy striped wool en fabrics, has given an added zes to the use of that staple standby pique. It is used in combination witf

linen of both light and heavy quail ties: for trimming it is unexecelled in it's smartness. On waists of vo1le, handkerchief linen, crepe de Chine, and organdy pique is used to make the collars, cuffs and vest fronts. My first illustration shows charming dress of combined linen and pique. The waist and lower skirt are of linen while the long tunic and waist trim mings are of pique. For the week end trips to the seashore and the be- lated vacation in the mountains this will be found an unusually practical dress; to this, if desired, a smart cape coat in pique can be added.
 Another addition which may be made so practical as to serve for wear during the Fall as we'll, is the stylish redingote in my second illustration. This may be made of linen or golfine for the warmer weather and for motor ing, but in serge, gabardine or whip cord it makes stunning coat for gen. eral wear.

YUMA PROVES GREAT
 FRUIT GROWING CENTER
The Tucson Citizen says:


 w. E. Barnes, travelling passenger agent of the Southern Pacific con- pany, returned today from Yuma, where he went last week to secure the cooperation of the Commercial Club of that city in a genral movement to induce tourists from the East to stop in Arizona this winter and during the exposition at San Francisco next year.
 MT. Barnes visited the Yuma val ley and brought the Citizen a basket of fruit to show what is being done in fruit raising in that section. The basket contained delicious grapes, and plums and peaces grown on the Chi otto ranch near Yuma, the fruit excel ling the finest varieties grown in Cal ifornia. MT. Ghiotto markets his own fruit and vegetables at his store in Yuma which is one of the show places of that town.
 The cotton crop in Yuma has proved a great success, but the lack of mar ket has been serious blow to the growers. On the Mexican side the cotton is being allowed to stand with out picking as long as it will on ac- count of the condition of the market and the lack of labor.

HOW ID LIVE
 ONE HUNDRED yEARS'
THIS IS THE NAME OF A NEW BOOK BY EUGENE CHRIS
 THAN, F. s. Q.

Eugene Christian, F. s. D., the worlds greatest Food Scientist, has just published new book called How to Live 100 Years"
 This book tells you what to eat according to your age, your work and the time of the year. It teaches you how to select, how to combine and so as to establish perfect digestion and assimilation of food and perfect elimination of waste. In other words, it teaches you how to cure all stomach and intestinal disorders by removing their causes, which Is wrong eating.
 If you have indigestion, gas, fermen- tation, sour stomach or any such dis orders after meal, this book tells you how to put the remedy on your table at the next meal.
 pr. Christian shows that all animals bow to proportion your food at meals except man live about eight times as long as it takes them to get their growth. If man should do this he would live nearly 200 years; but civi- lized man dies at the average age Of 39, He begins to lose his teeth, his eyes and his hair, and drops into his grave only few years after he is grown.
 Dr. Christian shows that 22 per cent of all the human beings born into the world die before they are one year old. Twenty-Five per cent more die before their fifth birthday, and more than half of the human race die before they are twenty-five.
 All other animals on the globe live eight times as long as it takes them to get their growth. Man breathes the same air, drinks the same water, lives under the same sunshine, but differs from his brother animals only in his eating, therefore Dr. Christian shows cOnclusively that this appalling discrepancy must be on account of his eating habits and he has proved that his theory is true by curing over 23.000 people within the past ten years by teaching them what to eat and how to eat. How to Live 100 Years gives the secret of his methods.
 This book does not disarrange or upset the family table. It teaches the housewife what foods the meal should be composed of, so as to make them chemically harmonious and perfectly digestible and healthy.
 This book is beautifully bound in velum, and gold lettered. Send one dollar to Dr. Eugene Christian, 213 West 18th Street, New York City, and you will receive this life-saving book by return mail, and if it is not worth it's weight in gold your money will be promptly refunded to you.

OF GILA
 COUNTY 0N BALLOT

PHOENIX, Ariz., Aug. 17.-The con- tenders for Miami county won the first skirmish in the courts yesterday when Judge F. O. Smith of Yavapai county sustained the demurrer to the com plaint and application for injunction filed by the attorney general in the superior court of this county and dis missed the case The immediate prop osition at issue was placing the meas ure initiated by petition upo nthe bal lot at the general election next Novem- Der. This bill provides for the erec- tion of county of Miami, with Miami as the county seat. Its extent is to make the county peritable vest pocket affair, although the greater part of the wealth of the present Gila county and a woeful minority of the people will be within it's borders.
 Sloan and Westervelt appeared for the respondent, the secretary of state, while Leslie T. Hardy and Johnson & Hill appeared for the state and Gila county, and the argument was on. The demurrer filed by the respondent sci out that the complaint and application filed by the attorney general did not set out sufficient facts to constitute cause of action.

 Like Solomon in all hIs glory came the beaux and belles of London town arrayed in cubist and futu ist cos tunes, in Elizabethian ruff and Roman toga; but most prominent of all were the costumes of the early Victorian crinolines. Many ruffled skirts, over stiffly swinging hoops, and quaint old waists, with the then fashionable drop ped shoulder lines, gave the student of Dame Fashions whims and fancies an inkling of what the feminine mind is looking for in the near future. Sure ly it must mean that the women are tired of the tight skirts, if, when al lowed the freedom as to choice of style, not one, nor, two, but many turn toward the period when the great est width of skirt was popular.
 Not only in England was there a great social event which showed this tendency, but in Paris also wonderful Bal de Crinolines" was given ny the Duchesse de Gramont, where all the costumes were of this period.
 This does not mean, however, that we will necessarily have a revival of the early Victorian styles in all their quaint loveliness, for the woman of today is a widely different creature from the womanly home-mnker of that generation. She is not less womaniy but she leads a different life; there fore, she will demand the style sug gested by that time, but made to suit her own life-one belonging to the period in which she lives. Nor vii the new gowns resemble the old pol traits of this fashion any more thar did last years panniers resemble the panniers of Louis XIV, from which the designs were taken.
 However, the greatest thing to be dreaded in adapting this style is ex aggeration, which, alas, is to be dread ed in all styles Charming, indeed are the ruffled skirts if their widtl is kept within bounds; but, if given the expansion allowed the early par of the last century, will only agair prove to what lengths women will gC for the sake of dress.
 Mingling with these Victorian sug gestions are the long Russian tunics which have held their own because of their many variations. Apron tunics scaIloped tunics. tunics gradually mar rowing in front, double tunics anC tunics which start at the hip line art

That Uncle Sam is making an in.

or the keokuk dam and water power
project on the fisheries of the upper
Mississippi has been revealed in a
statement made by DR.. r. E. Coker
director of the United States biologi-
cal station at Fairport.
Some time ago the fishermen on
the upper river protested to the de.
partment at Washington against the
dam. claiming that its presence had
seriously injured the fishing indus
try along the river. II was stated
that millions of fish were washed
over the dam yearly and that but
few passed north because it was nee
essary for the members of the finny
tribe to pass through the canal to
reach the lake above the dam
This complaint prompted a scien-
tific investigation which is now be-
ing conducted. DIR. Cocker refuses

ton thus far but promises an inter

TALKS ON THRIFT.
BY 7 o. MAC GREGoR.

In the making of coke in this coun-
try the beehive type Of oven is gen
orally used and the valuable by
products, including the ammonia, val
ued at millions of dollars, are allowed
TO ESCAPE. Calculated from the amount
of coal used in these industries in the
United States, the annual production
of ammonium sulphate should be ap-
proximately 100000 tons, valued at
$50. 200. 900 Actually only $4,000 tons,
valued at S1,S4O,000, are being pro
duCed.
One of the big independent steel
companies is about to invest 100000
in by-product coke ovens, and will
place the ammonia on the market for
fertilizer purposes.
l. IS also said that the United States
Steel corporation, after sending its
engineers abroad more than a year
ago 20 investigate coke making, has,
as a result, decided gradually to do
away with it's old-fashioned, wastefui
beehive coke ovens and save the by
products.
II IS true of some American wooden
mills that what goes down the river
proft for the same mill in a foreign
country. But American manufacturers
are waking up to the folly of such
waste.
The utilization OF cottonseed and
cottonseed oil, until recent years a
waste produce of the cotton crop, is
now valued in the United States alone
at $50 900, 900 a year.
The standard Oil company Is mar
vel of scientific management. Ebert
Hubbard enthusiastically says OF that
much-discussed corporation: 1T has
stopped the leaks. taken up the eco
monte slack. reduced friction and rem
dered a service TO the world that is
the nearest approach to business per
lection of any example that can be
named"
Briefly summarized, some Of the
principal ways in which waste is now
being eliminated on large scale in
cluda these:
Resources of coal are being protect
ed. although millions in minerals are
still being wasted, the national bureau
OF mines reports.
Steel scraps is being converted into
Bessemer.
There are laws to insure the health
and safety of workmen.
We are making successful war on
disease.
We are introducing some practical
ideas in education. fitting young peo-
nile 10 earn an honorable living along

We are installing a new reserve
bank and currency system by which
the supply of money will expand and
contract in accordance with the de
mands OF business. so that IL will ebb
and flow between the sections where J
there is surplus and the places where |
there is scarcity and VIII prevent |
panic by being always available where |
there Is legitimate need.
The elimination OF waste from our
personal affairs IS equally important
