And very appropriately accompany
ing this comes the prominence given
to pockets on skirts for street wear.
In these fine tailoring plays a most
important part They are all cut ankle
length, and the attention given to
snappy footwear is not less than that
bestowed upon the skirt. Separate
skirts are worn with tailored waists
of crepe-de-chine.
In either tailored or afternoon
gowns there are short jackets and
long coats to choose from. The short
waist line hardly admits a rival in
popularity, and perhaps this accounts
for the lack in number Of designs
which were expected to feature mil
itary ideas.
The short jacket that completes the
pretty gown pictured here is covered
with braiding in self-color. 1t is just
the touch required to enrich the de.
sign Worn over lacy bodice and
with fiower-trimmed hat the toilette
leaves nothing to be desired. II is

cry. This store was able to sell the
eggs to its customers for several cents
dozen more than the prevailing
prices for other eggs. II is interesting
to note, also, that the buyers became
accustomed to the stamp on the eggs
and when by accident two cases
reached the store unstamped there
was little difficulty In disposing Of
them.
The increased profit to the farmers
through this method of marketing was
not as noticeable. during the spring,
when eggs are plentiful, as when they
were scarce. During the winter the
difference was sometimes as great as
ten cents dozen, and when this par
ticular creamery was visited one De
cember the farmers we're receiving
40 cents a dozen for their eggs. AT
this very time farmers in the nearby
village were paid 25 cents dozen
With the increased prices the produc
ton rose rapidly also. Before the
creamery took up the marketing o.
the eggs the supply received by the
| local storekeepers was hardly more
| than sufficient for the local demand
Later the creamery paid out in one
year nearly $4,000 to producers Of
eggs, nearly all of which we're shipped
away. This accounts for the fact tina
the local merchants, who we're at frs
| inclined to look with dissayor upoI
the innovation, soon saw thu the in
creased returns to the community
meant increased profits to them even
/ tually.
There is no reason why system
similar to the one just describe'
should not be adopted in many othe
localities. Local conditions will, o
course, require certain changes, Blu
the fundamental principle will remain
Fresh eggs shipped regularly In goo,
condition to city markets are certain
to earn greater profits for the PFC
ducers than those which are Above
to deteriorate on the road from tn
farm to the consumer. Finally tn
profits from its egg business may wei

MERE are three hats which stand for
AL three very distinct types in the
new millinery for spring. But they
have several features in common
which mark the incoming styles.
They are deliberately made and they
are considerably trimmed. There is
a reaction away from the severely
plain hats with q single and some.
times minute decoration, such as
grew tiresome during the past winter.
At the left Of the group Is quaint
and picturesque bonnet made of black
horsehair braid. Marrow black velvet
ribbon and clusters OF garden roses
and forget-me-nots are used FOR the
trimming. You cannot imagine any
thing which completes the costume
more harmoniously, when It is one of
those wide-skirted, colonial looking
affairs that are so prettily developed
In taffeta.
At the right is pretty street turban
made OF braid In satin straw, and hay-
ing soft silk crown An embroidered
band about the eoronet Is bordered
with very narrow velvet ribbon and
short streamers fall from diminutive
fiat bow at the back. At the front q
big silk pompon supports long slen
der feather which fronts the weAtlrel
with amazing audacity.
One of those models which is ex
pected to do duty both for street and
other wear is shown at the center Of
the group. 1t is made of crepe drapet
over a light frame. The brim is clev
erly managed so that an outline oi
four points results. Midway between
these a little bouquet of roses anC
small flowers is set in a cluster o.
leaves. This is one of those rare hats
that are suited to older as well al
Va1nger matrons.

ANOTHER RUSSIAN FORT FALLS
Capture of Lutsk by Teutons May
Compel SIavs to Abandon Balance
of Gaiicia.

London, Sept, 2.-For a week the
French have been pouring an ava
lanche of shells into the German lines
in the West. 1t is not believed that
this ammunition would be used sim
ply for the purpose of damaging the
German trenches, and therefore an
early general offensive is looked for.
The minor fortress of Lutsk, which,
with those of Dubno and Rovno, forms
a fortified triangle on Russian terri
tory just north of the Galician from
tier, was captured by the Austrians
today, according to the official report
from Vienna. 1t is in this direction
that the Austro-German offensive has
been made the most aggressive the
last few days, the object being to sep
arate the Russian army which has
been retreating through the Pripet
marshes from that operating in Ga
licia, and which yesterday inflicted,
the Russians claim, a rather severe
defeat on the invaders.
Forces SIavs from GaIicia?
The capture of Lutsk, however, is
likely to compel the Russians, despite
their victory, to evacuate that part of
GaIicia still held by them, otherwise
their flank there would be threatened.
Along the rest of the front, except
in the center, where the Austro-Ger-
mans continue to make a slow ad-
vance, the Russians appear to be hold
ing their own. They have thus far
prevented the Germans from crossing
the Dvina at Friedrichstadt, where
battle has been in progress for sew
eral days; they have arrested the
German offensive between that place
and the Gulf of Riga and still are
holding their ground between Kovno
and Wilma and before Grodno, al
though the Germans have approached
the outer position of Grodno fortress.
