r ' . -"'f , .- ." . 'jtfi. v. & ' -II-. . " . - V CROP CONDITIONS IN WESTERN CANADA ARE THE MOST PROMISING FOR MANY YEARS. Tho deepest Interest Is attached to the condition of tho grain crops In Western Canada, especially among tho thousands In tho United States who aro financially Interested In lands in that country. This Interest Is fully as great among those who have friends there following farming nnd the growing of grain. Tho reports from Canadian govern ment officials convoy tho Information that tho area undor crop thle year In thoprovlnces of Manitoba, Saskatche wan "and Alberta will probably bo no greater than that of last year. Last fall tho weather was such that there was not as much fall plowing as had been hoped for. Tho getting ready of land this spring made a considerable portion of tho grain lato In seeding. Notwithstanding UiIb, wheat, oats, barley and flax wore got In In good shapo, although irom a week to ten days later than last year. On tho 27th of Juno tho reports regarding crop conditions generally In Western Canada were: "Abundant sunshine with timely and copious rain through out Western Canada gives every as surance of generous harvest. Climatic conditions In recont weoks have been absolutely Ideal. Western correspon dents agree In predicting every Indi cation of a bumper crop under favor able conditions. Wheat Bhould be headed out In Manitoba between July 10th and 12th, and In Saskatchewan nnd Alberta from 15th to 17th. The oat crop is looltlng well,although late and rather ehort In straw." Tills Is followed by a report July fith: "Crop conditions continuo in same satisfactory condition rb last week. Plenteous rahiB have fallen nil over prairie provinces, followed by general warm and splendid growing weather. Experts ngreo Bufflclcnt moisture for many weeks, while crop Is ten to fifteen days late, prospects uro extremely favorable atfd condi tional upon reasonable weather for next four weeks. Splendid western crop Is assured." Thero Is, therefore, the best reason to anticipate most magnificent crops throughout Western Canada In 1913. Advertisement. Boy'a View of Policemen. A boy's view of policemen is thus quaintly expressed in the examination papers of tho Albert Street school, Bulwell, Nottingham, England: "Ono of our well-known men in the large towns is the policeman; ho is a ery largo man, and looks very smart In his suit of blue. "If ho sees a boy who plight to bo at school, ho tries to catch him and tako him to school, where ho is pun ished. "His dutlce are many. At night ho walks quietly down tho,streets in case there aro any robbers. ... Ho carries a lamp about with him to sec where tho robber escapes. If tho rob ber hides, he will bo traced. Tho po liceman carries a staff, a whistle, and some handcuffs in ense he needs them." Modern Proverb. Lo! Behold the man who eateth and drinkcth gluttonously in tho hot weather, how lib porsplreth like unto a cake of Ice on a hot stovo, cuss him. Meditations of Jercblah of Joppa. Misunderstood. "Ho married a woman with princi ple." "Yes and now he lives on the in terest" The woman who powders her nose Isn't so apt to shine in society. Many a man's soiled-character has been washed In a woman's tears. FOUND A WAY To Be Clear of Coffee Troubles. "Husband and myself both had the coffee habit, and finally his stomach and kidneys got fn Buch a bad condi tion that he was compelled to give up a good position that ho had held for years. He was too sick to work. His skin) was yellow, and there didn't seem to bo an organ Jn his body that was not affected, "I told him I folt euro his sickness was duo to coffee and after Bomo dis cussion ho decided to give it up. "It was a struggle, because of the powerful habit. One day we heard about Postum and concluded to try it and then it was easy to leave on coffee. "His fearful headaches grew less frequent, his complexion began to clear, kldnoys grew better until at last he was a now man altogether, as a re sult of leaving off coffeo and taking up Postum. Then I began to drink it too. "Although I was never as bad off as ray husband, I was always very ner vous and never at any tlmo very strong, only weighing 05 lbs. beforel began to uso Postum. Now .1 weigh 115 lbB. and can do as much work as -anyone my size, I think." flame given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Write for booklet, "Tho Road to Wellvillc." Postum comes in two forms. Regular Postum (must be boiled.) Instant Postum doesn't require boil ing, but is prepared Instantly by stir rius a. level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot wator, which makes it right for most persons. A big cup requires more and some people who llko strong things put in a , heaping spoonful and temper it with a largo supply of cream. Experiment until you know tho amotmt that pleases your palate nnd have It Berved that way In tho future. There's a Reason" for Postum. NEWEST DRAPERY IN VEILS CItAPE veils for mourning, either In black or white, aro not more than n yard or a yard and a quarter In length. When a longer veil is desired which Is not often the case chiffon bordered with crape is UBcd In stead of all crape. The now draperies require n veil almost or quite square and these squares of crapo are finished with a three-inch border of the same material, which extends all around the four sides. There are several now drapes, but tho two most artiBtlc Ideas show the veil falling in a double or triple box plait from tho back of the turban, or draped-to fall in two points at tho back from bonnot shapes. In the latter case tho veil provides tho trimming for tho bonnet. -Longer veils ot chiffon wltli crapo borders aro used on both bonnets and turbans. Among some of the smartest styles Wteso long veils provide tho drapery for tho shape, enveloping it entirely, and fall In amplo folds about the figure. This is for those who desiro tho extreme' in mourning modes. Other novelties to be noted aro tho uso of black and white- crapo together and of all white crapo for any period of mourning. Tho most striking nnd beautiful mourning millinery to be soen on Fifth nvenue Is in whlto crapo. Shapes aro covered with this fabric and trimmed with lilies, roses or other blossoms mado of it. Tho same idea is carried out in black. Tho pure whit of white crape- and tho beauty of the fabric Itself make for it a triumph above all-other materials. FOR NIGHTGOWN OR NEGLIGEE Exquisitely Pretty Robes Servo Both Purposes Crepe de Chlno and White Lace Chiefly Used. Alluring robes in delicately colored erepe do chine nnd white luce aro list ed as nightgowns, but may quite as properly bo worn as negligees, and most women buy thorn for that pur pose. The back and front, each cut from a single breadth ot double-width crepo de chino, aro bo gradually sloped from tho lower edge finished, with an a-Jour-headcd hem to tho bust, that nowhere !b there an atom too much fullness. At the top tho crepe de chino width at back and front aro opened at tho right side and drawn in a point to that shoulder, while tho other side is caught under tho left arm. The 'entire lower section Is swung from a deep yoke of "white lace whoso neck is drawn taut by a rib bon run beading after tho robo is on, for there is no other opening and no fastening to bother with The elbow Bleevea are simply wide puffs of laco ending In narrow ruffles gathered with ribbon and beading.

DAYS OF HIGH HEELS ENDED Sandals Which, With Their Acces sories, Aro Remarkably Pretty, Assure Downfall of "Stilts." Off with your high stilts, MIbs Abreast-wlth-Fashloti! Down to with in a quarter inch of the pavement' with your heels! For that is what san dals aro going to bring you to. And then won't, you bo an insignificant lit tlo person? But as you'll certainly adopt sandals, you may as well learn thnt they're kept on with ribbons laced about tho ankles a horrid mils anco, tho lacing and tied thero in bows or clasped with tiny buckles. The buckles are certain to bo moio popular than tho bows first, becatmo they'ro more easily adjusted and, sec ond, because they'ro so pretty. One of the prettiestjiair as yet brought out is in three tones of gold set with Bui garlan colored stones. Another set is of an opaque dark blue stone, a third in two tones of silver Bet with sap phires and topaz, and a fourth In dull gray finished metal set with sapphires. Then thero are tho buckles of tor tolse shell bearing silver nail heads and of platinum set with rhinestones and of gold set with pearls. New Wrinkle. Tho fingers nnd hands of elbow, length silk gloves wear out, leaving; the uppers comparatively new. Whore' there is a baby in tho Iioubo tlieso may bo turned to good use. Place ono, of baby's socks on tho gloves, tho leg part of tho sock and tho hemmed end of tho glovo being togethor. Then cut Bocks for tho baby after tho pattern. Sew carefully into shapo with flat seams. Hero you have a good light weight sock only for tho cost or trou ble ot making. Tho top should bo reinforced to withstand the wear and tear caused by safety pins. Violet Holder. An extremely simple and practical rubber novelty comes if tho shapo pf a liunch pt violets, and la designed for tho protection of a gown when tho natural flowers aro worn, it is mado of green rubberized silk, tho shade of the vlolo leaves, and is out lined with a green wire. When worn It effectually provents tho penetration of any moisturo to tho gown. Tho wire edge permits of shaping the holder to tho bouquet proper, nntl tho latter Is then attached to tho corsage or wher over else dealred. Quaint Effect. Tho streamer trimming for hats Is being favored by both French and English women. Among the novel quaint effects to Tio considered is ono showing an Inch-wide, black moire ribbon draped from tho right side ol the hat snugly across tho throat to tho left shouldor, where it falls unrc strain ed to tho hem of tho gown, ufs th New York Horald. Only picturesque or youthful women should undertake the atoamor trimming. Rose Flavoring. Fill a glass bottlo wjth fresh, fra grant petals, crowding them down to Its fullest capacity, then pour In enough pure alcohol to submerge, When Ex-Pretldent Ta Was "Married.

HOW COCA COLA REFRESHES. -Tho remarkable success which has attended the snlo of Coca-Coin has been oxplulnod in many different ways. Some hnvo attributed it to "good advertis ing;" others to "efficient mnnagotnont," others, to its "delicious flavor" nnd Btlll others to tho fact that it was the first In tho field of "trado-mnrked" soft drinks. In this connection, tho opinion of a manufacturing chomlst who has analyz ed Coca-Cola and Btudlcd its history for ninny years, will provo Interesting. Ho attributes' tho popularity of tho drink In largo part to Its quality of refresh ing both mind nnd body without nro duclng any subsequent depression. Ho points out tho facUlint the chemical composition of Cocn-Cola Is practlbally Identical with thnt of coffeo and tea (with sugar added) tho only matorlal difference being tho nbsciico ot tannlo ncld from Coca-Coin. Ho points to tho laboratory experiments ot Dr. Holllng worth of Columbia University and of Dr. II. C. Wood, Jr. ot Philadelphia which provo conclusively that tho enf-foiuc-contnlning bovernges (coffee, tea, Coca-Cola, etc.) reliovo mental and mus cular fatlnuo by rendering tho nerves and muscles moro responsive to tho will, thus diminishing tho rcslstnncd produced by fatigue Thoso oxporl mentn nlso demonstrate tho fact that tho caffolno group of bovornges differ from tho stimulants in that tho uso of tho lutter Is followed by a porlod of de pression which calls for moro stimula tion, thus resulting In tho formation ot 0 "habit" Adv.
