JACKET BLOUSE is WELCOME
Garment Viii Help Out Milady's Ward
robe; Suitable for Women With
Slender Lines.

The jacket blouse is new and some
thing that is going to be welcomed by
a lot of women as means of helping
out their wardrobe. The idea started
in Paris, where all through the spring
and summer they were worn with
skirts and waists in different color
ings. This is fashion which should
be confined to women with long, slen-
der lines, because on any more robust
figures it is quite an unhappy thing to
break the line Of waist and skirt. How
ever, there are many tall. thin figures
in the world and they will look lovely
in the jacket blouse.
1t is, really, blouse with long
waistline and tight, rather wide band
about the hips. 1t is made with a
low, rolled collar or with high one
that buttons under the chin. and Its
material is some heavy colorful fabric
suitable to the street, with cover
ing coat, that makes it sort OF coat
In itself-hence its name. the jacket

WIDER RIBBONS FOR GlRDLES
Strands Resemble Strips Of Metal Bro
cade; Excellent Means Of Doing
Over Old Dresses,

Ribbons Of more width are used for
twisted girdles and for panels at the
sides of skirts. They look like strips
of metal brOcade, and really that Is
what they are, though woven In ribbon
widths. In some instances a whole
bodice is made of this metal or plain
brocaded ribbon and one interesting
gown had the draped bodice running
off into sash that tied In big bow
at one side of the back and fell in
long train over the silver-cloth under
skirt.
This Is an excellent means Of doing
over old dresses, for a bit Of new rib
bon added to the old foundation does
wonders in the way of freshening
frock to face new seasons wear.
And for this coming season, particu-
larly. one will have to resort to a good
deal of cleverness in the way OF max.
ing over, for the gowns of last win
ter are going to look trife scant
when slipped from their hiding places.
However, no encouragement Is neces.
sary, until one has considered ways
and means Of bringing them up to date
and making them look like something
designed especially according to the
last word of fashion.

buckles or ornaments on them.
On Colonial models large buckles,
rosettes, bows and beadwork find ef-
fective backgrounds and the same dec
Oratiye features are elaborated on
evening shoes, Some of these are elab-
orately embroidered with crystal beads

sparkling and expensive buckles Of
riveted steel or rhinestone. Steel beads
often replace the steel buckle and
rosettes of plated ribbon, centered
with buckles or ornaments, add the
sparkling touch that pleases fashion.

blouse. The favorite material for this
kind of blouse is fabric called mate
lasse: 1t has rather thick, almost
quiltey, silk surface and over all
an embroidered design.
These outer blouses are often worn
with plated skirts of black satin or
crepe and they are desirable, too, with
the lighter weight wooden materials.
They will naturally grow more in IA
vOr as the cooler days approach, for
they are essentially the thing to wear
before one needs to don a top coat Of
any great warmth or weight. They
are at their loveliest when more or
less brightly colored. There is one
sort in black and white which Is very
effective, the embroidery done In
black on white ground. There Is an
other done In dull tones of red on a
background of black. The red ones
are extremely good looking and there
are others which will thrill those who
naturally like to wear costumes of this
sort.

Long skirts there will be beyond the

one point they will be quite short

they will fairly be trailing on the

Many of the fall dresses will be
made up on combination Of two ma

Waistlines will be long-well over
the hips-and they will at that point
be adorned with trimmings of beads
or twisted ribbons or velvets made into
rolls or any other sash material which
happens to harmonize with the general
Interests of the gown itself.
The neckline will, in all cases, be as
plain as possible, the batteau line be
ing the one which is most favored
from among them all. At this point
there will be absolutely no trimming
but the line of the gown left entirely
plain will be left to hold the honors

GATHER IN wheat
Farmers of Western Canada Re-
joice at Harvest.
Largest Crop in the History Of tho
Fertile Provinces May Be Con.
sidered Assured.

Reports of Western Canadas wheat
crop. which may be considered fairly
| accurate, as they are made at the
end of the season, when the crop Is
fully harvested would indicate a
yield of between 35O,O00,OO0 and 370,-
100000 bushels from a total acreage
Of 21.471,000. This Is the greatest
yield In the history of the provinces
of Manitoba. Saskatchewan and AL
berta. This immense yield has only
been harvested through the combined
energies of all public bodies-rail-
ways and governments. 1t required
the assistance, outside of that locally
employed, of upward OF 10000 men.
These were brought into the country
from the East, the West and the
South, by trainloads, and rushed for
ward at express speed, to be placed in
the different districts, under the drec-
tion of officials who were kept advised
daily. by wire, Of the needs
AS result of this combined effort
the largest wheat crop in the history
of the West was successfully harvest
ed. The threshing reports show that
almost universally, in every section
of the country the grain graded high.
In very few places did rain interfere
with stacking. The province of Mani
toba was the first to complete thresh-
ing, very few fields being left at the
time of writing.
Portions of Saskatchewan that had
suffered from drought for the past
two or three years reaped n crop that
largely made up for past disappoint-
ments.
In Alberta there was strange con
dition. In the central district always
noted for its heavy yields, there was
considerable Of falling off. Instead
of the 35 and 40 bushel yields the
average ran from 10 to 10. while in
southern portions, where drought had
affected the country for some time
past, there were exceptionally high
yields.
Reports of individual yields in diff
ferent portions OF the three provinces
lead to the impression that when
threshing returns are in there will be
found to have been a much better crop
than at present seems possible. Some
of these returns give individual farm
ers as getting as high as 45 bushels
others 80, and 50 on, while in some
districts, where In early August not
more than 8 or 10 bushels might he
looked for Is and IS bushels are re-
corded, the Improvement having been
brought about by rains that worked
marvels in the appearance of the crop.
And then, too, instead of the head
carrying four rows, most of them car
ried six rows, and filed to the top,
which, to those who know, means at
least fifty per cent more.
The rye crop of all Western Can
ada is exceptionally good; the oats
generally good and barley fair.
The weather at the time of writing
is threatening for a rainy spell, which
may interfere with threshing, and pro-
long it somewhat.
Most of the newcomers from the
States have excellent crops During
August, the trains to Western Canadn
carried hundreds of capitalists and
others interested in Western Canada
land, going up to take care of the crop
that they had arranged to have put
in on the land they owned. Very few
of them will be dlsappointed.-Adver
