"HE war has influenced the present
 styles, especially in coats and
 skirts, not to mention hats Per sonally I had French soldier coat, with the skirt buttoned back, and tricorne four years ago, and almost every season since have had something distinctly traceable either to uniforms or liveries of some kind, as think them decorative, practical and comfortable. Of course, think the war has brought these things more to our mo- tice, and some women are, no doubt adopting these styles as a compliment to our brave men at the front
 Look at my little Robespierre lady in putty-colored face cloth. She is distinctly feminine in spite of the stick she carries, but the whole 1ress-for it is not a coat, but a street suit in one piece-is entirely suitable for the morning walk and lunch con at the club. I continue, it is putty faced cloth with fob collar and cuffs of bottle-green watered silk. The collar is of the approved "cloaker' fashion, the skirt full, the sleeves long and tight and the little cape loose about the shoulders; small black hat has a martial plume of tightly curled ostrich.
 The natural tussore coat and skirt is, of course, more of to-day and resembles the French guards in every way but the skirt, which, in this case, is not buttoned back. The principal notes are the belt, the cuffs and the buttoned pockets. The little three- cornered hat is and always will be as chic as the day it was first invented.
 Speaking of hats, here is another little military touch, the Glengarry in black worn by the lady in the blue serge-back view It is a genuine shape with an addi- tion of ribbon of green fastening a tiny sprig of oak and heather at the back much in the same way that the Plantag- enets stuck bunch of gorse in their hel- nets in the civil war.
 The same lady has a serge and braided coat and skirt whose principal feature is the opening at the back of the coat just below the broad buttoned belt. The skirt is full at the bottom, but fairly closely fitting at the top; the collar high and but toned at the front.
 My last is a little ratine, rather like a military aviator's coat so buttoned and closeftting it is, yet giving all the free dom of action. It has two large workman like pockets in either side; close-ftting collar and cuffs of sable are the only trimming.
 Entirely different in style and effect, but also most attractive, is gown whose hesh-colored foundation is on the skirt, doubly yelled with gold net, one side of

lOrnnluS a lTeillS WOrh through which the subtle inner shadings S h o W charmingly. It is further worth noting that each diamond is set in the cen tre of another, a soft, milky white stone, it's own brilliance being doubled by reason of this raising and contrast.
 FheIr swathed deeply about the waist and over the hips is some ivory white and silver tissue, bro- caded with gold and blue,

the corsage, from shoulder to hip, consist. ing of delft drapery of brilliant green and gold brocade and the other being of the same faint pink and shimmering gold as the skirt, and being so molded to the figure as to be somewhat startling effect at little distance A great, barbarically beau. tiful ornament of dull gold and brilliant malRchite green is fastened on the left hip, fringes of the beads and bugles and jewels hanging far down on the skirt, and a similar ornament-in miniature-provid- ing decorative apology for a sleeve on the right shoulder, though at the other side the bodice has no visible means of support" narrow fold of flesh pink tulle (possibly and cleverly concealing an elas- tic threading) being only noticeable or even discoverable at close quarters
 You may always, indeed, take it for granted that each dress is provided with fesh-colored foundation, whose chief aim and object it is to make it's presence as un- obtrusiye as possible! And, remembering this, you can try to realize the effect of a sleeveless corsage of silver gauge crossed by wide scarves of sapphire blue panne. which are eventually caught together on one hip by a cluster of damask roses The full skirt beneath is of delicate pink chif- ion and net in the deeper blue of tropical sky at night, at first just broidered with a light tracery of dull gold, which soon, how ever, grows bright and bold and beautiful. too, tinsel ribbon of gold and silver being interwoven with the metallic threads. And finally, shimmering out through the blue with moon-like radiance, fold of sil,e tissue is deftly introduced between a dou- ble fold of the blue tulle at the skirt hem
 There are some eminently "copyaole" ideas in the dress.
 Another successful device is the swath- ing round the hesh-colored corsage from bust to hips Of some turquoise-tinted net and the placing over this of quaint litt,o bolero of brilliants, the shining stone. fra11ic

orange and purple, all this glory or
 coloring giving place to the elusive
 mist-gray of the tulle skirt on which a device of cobwebby lightness is C Aroidered in frosted silver. Be $ meath the gray there is a fitness of the blue net first and more fully seen on the corsage, and under this
 again, of course, the inevitable and
 always attractive flesh pink.
 Finally comes creation of flame
 colored chiffon, yelled as to the SsSs skirt with white net, on which
 broidery of beads shades from palest amber to deepest orange. The corsage, on the other hand, is outwardly composed of Sake blue chiffon, the broidery here chiefly consisting of diamonds and pearls. Further color contrast is intro duced by trail of flowers whose folded silken petals bring together pale rose pink and deepest flame, faint blue and brillian, green, one or two of the lovely little bios soms having caught a diamond dewdroI on their innermost petals.

LIVES SAVED BY TELEPHONE.
One Man Drank Poison, and Another
Severed Four Arteries.

Within the last several days two lives
have been saved over the telephone.
Rev. w. LentZ, OF Orders, a Breth-
rem minister, took poison by mistake tor
his medicine. No physician being here,
his family got instruction from a distant
physician. Antidotes were administered
and his lite was saved.
William MIonich, in Pendleton county
tried to cut bullet from the breach of a
gun. The knife slipped and severed four
arteries in his wrist. He was in danger
Of bleeding to death. DR.. Meyers, al
Oak Flat, six miles away, gave instruc-
lions over the phone. Another life was
saved. Mr.. Mionich is 76 years old.

A RiIl;on Bushels of Wheat.

Acting upon the advice OF competent
authority and their own good judgment,
the farmers of the United States last iail
nIauted $4,000 more acres lof wheat
than they did the year before. The TED
pral crop for May shows that l,Oe4,Oo
acres were killed during the winter, on
its face very heavy loss, but in reality
the smallest in fifteen years. The de-
nartment of agriculture estimates the
condition of winter wheat at e22 per cent
which is SIS per cent higher than the ZEN
wear average on Mayl. On the basis o,
ACREAGE and conditions the estimated
WELD is COS 100000 bushels.
The government estimates the spring
wheat production at 3OS, 900 900 bushels
so that, from present prospects, inc
wheat crop OF the United States IN 1919
will total over billion bushels exceed
ing,alI previous records.
