JACOBY store real
BEAUTY shop These DAYS

Scores of palms form an attractive
setting for the unusually interesting
and charming display of the late fall
fashions which are now being shown
at the fall opening OF the Jacoby De-
partment store at No. 224 Market
street. Suits, dresses, waists, hats,
coats and general merchandise form
the main part of the display and the
attractive and artistic manner in
which they are arranged and shown
is arousing much comment from the
hundreds of visitors who are fiocking
to this store to take advantage of
some of the splendid bargains offered.
All the latest models are being
shown. Suits this year are for the
most part made of the whipcords, ga
bardine and crepe poplins. Everything
is trimmed in fur and most OF the
coats to the suits have the chin-chin
collars and give the Russian blouse
effect Braid is forming a popular
mode of trimming and pockets are
being worn galore. Most of the suit
coats are from 80 to SO inches in
length while the skirts escape the
ground by seven inches.
Among the newest and most popu.
lar colors are African brown, taupe.
bottle green and of course the ever.
lasting blue. Practically al the
skirts show the high waist line and a
great many of them are shirred both
at the top and bottom. The shirred
putting is a popular form of trimming.
The soft taffeta and messaline sepa-
rate skirts are being worn a great
deal with chiffon aud lace blouses.
The Jacoby store is showing an es-
pecially attractive line Of dresses.
These for the most part, are made of
the pussy willow taffeta, silk poplins,
gabardine, crepe de chine and char
mouse. They are combining mate
rials a great deal this season. One
especially attractive model was a
dark blue gabardine, combined with
plaid silk. IL was made Princess ef-
feet and a soft white satin vest and
black buttons added a pretty finish.
Still another model that Immediately
attracts attention is that Of a black
charmeuse. trimmed with a plaid silk
girdle. This dress is'made with a bo-
lero effect, as so many OF the dresses
are this season, and has a white chit
fon vest with tiny black velvet but
tons and panne velvet tips.
In the millinery department of this
store are also to be found the latest
fashions and models. A number OF
the hats this fall are showing the
hoppy brim, which are youthful and
therefore proving especially popular.
Most of the hats arc in velvet and the
trimming is low, instead of high.
The lower floor of the Jacoby store
is devoted principally to general mer-
chandise and a visitor here will be
able to find almost anything in the
way Of notions, underwear. household
linens and little fancies that are dear
TO every woman's heart.

Fighting Continues on All of Sec

AIMS AT SOME OTHER POINTS

Especial Gable to The TiInes-D Dispatch
LONDON. June 2O.-The German line
was bent to the northwest of Souchez
to-day by n French attack. which was
started in the ravine east OF Lorette,
known as the Fond-de- Bouval. OF which
the French are now masters, and
pressed by vigorous lght:ng until the
French line had been advanced more
than half mile. The attack had not
been checked when the French COM
mander made his report tonight.
Terrific artillery fighting continues
on all of this sector north of Arras,
according to the French midnight COM
munique, and progress has been real
lied against the Germans at several
other points of the long battle line
A violent counterattack WAS repulsed
west of the Argonne. where fighting
has now been renewed on a small
scale. and on the heights Of the Meuse
two lines of trenches were captured
from the Germans, together with
seventy prisoners.
stubborn resistance is being offered
by the Germans in the Lorraine dis
trict, where. near Reillon strongly
fortified position was captured by the
French, who then were called upon to
withstand repeated counterattacks, but
still retained the position at nightfall.
FRENCH ADVANCE IN ALsACE
CONTINUES UNINTERRUPTED
In Alsace the French advance along
the Valley of the Fecht continues un-
interrupted.
Berlin states that north of Arras
and north OF the La Bassee Canal weak
attacks by the French and British
forces were easily repulsed while in
the Champagne district n whole French
division was shot down under the Ger
man fire when an attempt was made
to advance, after blowing up one OF
the German trenches.
Reports from the Dutch frontier are
that there has been no cessation in
the movements OF the German troops
through Belgium. German soldiers
continue to arrive in great numbers
from the eastern front, and are being
sent forward as fast as they arrive.
mainly to Northern France.
There now seems to be no doubt that
the Germans have been forced definite
~ to abandon their latest plan for an
attempt 10 break through the allies
lines. for which every preparation had
been made.
The 200 guns which were parked mt
Courtrai awaiting disposition for the
new German offensive. have been sent
to n point north OF Arras. where they
have played great part in protecting
the German lines of communication to-
wards Lens.
French gains in this district, how
ever, have now permitted OF tho French
artillery assuming positions which
command the road from Ecurie to Lens.
This has been accomplished in spite Of
the added weight of guns which the
Germans brought to bear on this sec
ton.
