cade design in gold. The colors
are unusually rich and lovely.
and this gown would be becom.
ing to any woman who can wear
the rusty tones.
Semi-Draped Bodice
The lines are as smart as
the fabric. The bias cut bodice
with shirring would be kind to
a figure that was either too
slight or a bit too large. The
diagonal cutting in the skirt
section will make for perfect
fit and long. graceful lines, but
notice that there Is a definite
waistline, which is easier to
wear than an underlined line.
The buckle on the belt is un-
usual, and entirely new so far
as we know. It is Of red jade,
and makes a very rich-looking
appearance with the finenesS Of
the fabric.
A Good Investment
This gown is practical as well
as smart, for you can wear it
with almost any type acces-
sories. Shoes may be dyed any
one of the colors in the print,
and either a black or colored
wrap would look well. Very
little jewelry is needed, as the
gown is sumptuous in its own
right. And it is rather an ad-
vanced fashion, as metal cloth
is just beginning to come into
the fashion picture, so that
you can be sure it will be more
than a one-season gown.

SEAL RACKET
 IS BROKEN UP
Canadian Indians Cut Off Noses Sea Lion Pups, And Claim
 Hair Seal Bounty

VANCOUVER, B. C., Aug 6.-The Federal department of fisheries has at last broken up the seal snout racket.
 The government has been paying a bounty of $3 per nose for hair seals slaughtered off the west coast The hair seals have been proved to be destructive to the salmon run and other valuable commercial fish, and for that req son the government rewards hunt CTS who reduce the herds. The noses are Sent in as proof that tn. seals have been killed.
 Tn the past the Indians, who have been the chief claimants for rewards, have sent in their con- signments of hair seal noses in small boxes, a dozen or so, or even less, at a time. When a shipment of 600 noses arrived recently, how ever, officials were puzzled.
 Meanwhile reports brought back by sea lion hunters helped solve the mystery Sea lions are slaught= cred off the west coast as we'll as hair seals because of the destruc- tion they cause among salmon and other varieties of fish. The sea lion hunters were surprised to find large numbers of sea lion pups whose shouts had been cut off. Examination subsequently, showed that the noses of hair seals and young sea lions are practically identical Experts have discovered means of distinguishing them, however, and all noses received in future will not only be counted but subjected to a severe test.

The increase was authorized as an emergency measure and will be effective for June Food prices here reflected the increase immediately by advancing ten per cent. The governments revenue, derived principally from imports and a banana export tax, were estimated to have dropped sixty per cent in the last year.
