Warmer Weather Next Week.

The lateness of the season, 1t was
said at the weather bureau today, pre-
vented any serious damage except to
flowers and plants growing out OF
doors. Truck gardens in this section
were about at the end of their useful
ness and the frost last night merely
put an end to their final struggle for
survival.
More frost is predicted for tonight,
and tomorrow's weather is to be cool,
according to the forecaster. After that
Temperatures will rise gradually and at
least few days of warmer weather
may be expected early next week.
TIL brisk wind which blew from the
northwest today is not bringing
storm in its wake. the forecaster said:
1t is simply due to a low" area that
has existed somewhere out in the At
lantic ocean for the last few days.

A clever trick in the knit ting makes some of these new silk stockings have checks and stripes that seem to be of deeper hue. Yet they are all of the one color. T1s simply the way the threads are brought to the surface and the way the light strikes them.
 Others, of the same family, are sim i1arly knitted so they have same rich effect as moire silk.
