An excursion through the shops in
search of new blouses is as intriguing
asi an expedition after wild flowers.
Where there is so much variety and
beauty to be found there is an equal
amount of zest in making selections.
The autumn brought variety in styles,

the new blouses and for several rea-

reasons Is the high cost of dressing

the company of handsome separate

any occasion with assurance.
The overblouse and the smock style
are the important new features In the
season's showings. In the over
hIonse. two materials or two colors
of one material are used TO make the
blouse-as crepe georgette over chif-
son. or net or satin. In the smock

ATTORNEY WALTER M. FARMER
CONTINUES TO MEET WITH
WONDERFUL AND BRILLIANT
SUCCESS AT THE CHICAGO
BAR.

In 1905, Hon. Walter N. Farmer
blew into this great and busting city
from St Louis, Mo-, where for more
than Is years he was one of the lead
ing lawyers in that city, being sue
cessful in an eminent degree in han.
ding many important cases in the
civil and the criminal courts, carry
ing several cases on up to the Su-
preme Court of the United States al
Washington, d. C.
He has the honor and the great
distinction Of being the first and the
only Colored lawyer to graduate with
high honors from the Washington
Law School of that city.
It must also be said to the credit
Of Mr.. Farmer, that he was held in
the highest esteem by all of the
judges and the members of the st.
Louis Bar, and for some years he was
very prominent in its civic and po-
litical affairs.
Shortly after locating in this city
Mr.. Farmer Opened up his law offices
at 1s4 West Washington street, and
by close attention to business and by
dealing honestly with his many white
and colored clients he has met with
remarkable success in the field of
law.
The following cases indicate far
beyond q reasonable doubt that Mr..
Farmer is perfectly at home on all
the far-reaching or the important
points in connection with the laws
Of Illinois
The case Of Berry vs.. Waters, ct

administrator for the estate.
Charles Waters, husband of Martha
Waters, died seized one-half interest
in the property. Attorney Walter NJ.
Farmer, a leading practitioner at the
Chicago bar, represented Mrs. Waters
and contended that she was entitled
to the whole property. Over twenty
five or thirty people were involved
being represented by the firm of Chip
man, jackson and Kline.
After a continued fight from 1911
to May IL, 1919, Mr.. Farmer was
successful in winning the case for his
client, Mrs. Waters, having the last
motion made by his opponents denied
and the decree signed giving the prop
erty to Mrs. Waters.
Mr.. Farmer was also successful in
having the Supreme Court make an
important ruling in regard to the is
suing of q writ known as capias ad
satisfaciendum. Heretofore applica-
ton was made to the court for an
order directing the clerk to issue such
writ A motion was made to have
Judge Charles n. Walker to issue
the eapias in the case of Mark vs..
Schulman. Mr.. Farmer opposed the
motion, but was denied. The matter
then went to the Supreme Court Of
Illinois, where an effort was made
to have a writ Of Mandamus issued
compelling Judge Walker to issue the
writ Mr.. Farmer represented Judge
Walker and fled q demurrer to the
petition claiming that it was the duty
of the clerk to issue said writs and
that the judge had nothing to do with
it, and the Supreme Court sustained
