Drexel. who is here ■ r tured. and the captain of the standpatters was Mrs Ogden Mills. New port is to select society what Mecca is to the Mahommedans. or ilecares to the Hindus, or Jerusalem to the Jew and to the Christian—the holy of holies of the idle rich, whose blbie is the social register duly •tamped with the dollar mark. Mrs. Drexel would widen the ranks of the select and admit many now barred from the social paradise, where nobles with decayed fortunes matrimonially browse Mrs. Mills would none of this. She stands for a close cprpora t:on. so to speak, and would limit to 100 ot even fewer those who would tie entitled to enter the elect set of Newport. * • ■** f «o:..(s. who ar* taLen aem iisit enough by their followers. **'»r»d is to a barle royal for social supr. macy.

Copyright, by Underwood & Underwo >1, N. T. NO ui>-to-date costume Is consider ed complete without the inev itable band-bag, which must har monize with, if not match, the costume. This bag is suspended from ; the shoulder—either side—and made of [ embroidered mT»ire—three Ferslan ! palm leaves bordered with pearls being ! the chief decoration. The fringe—and fringe is the mode at present—is made of pearl and wood beads, in brown to match the cloth suit. i 1 . ■ .

The cover of a sofa pillow can be made to fit well by the following little trick: After sewing up three sides but before turning the cover right side out. tack the two finished corners of the case securely to two corners of the pillow-. Turn the case over the ! pillow. Sew’ up the fourth side for an inch or two ct each end Tack these two corners to the corresponding cor ners of the cushion Finish as usual. This keeps the pillow from pulling and sagging away from the cover.— Hous keeper. Detachable Flower. It must have been the girl of small allowance who invented the detach able flower for her hat. Trimminj the winter's chapeaux is so simple thst it is an easy matter to whisk off one flower and put on another to match the next costume worn. Velvet polnsettias are a favorite flower on winter hats for those who I can stand the vivid red so dose to the j face. Another popular flower is huge vel- i vet roses in rich dull tones A new idea is to outline the edges of these roses with tiny beads to correspond to the color of the costume worn Instead of sewing on the detach able roses each time, they are pro vided with tiny safety pins on tbe under side, which are quickly adjusted to tbe trimming. Taffeta Jackets. Little coats or Jackets of change able taffetas are worn with voile or mull lingerie frocks. They show the high line and the plaited frill on the lower edge URGENT ?:EED FOR A NAME j If the Bisected Skirt Is to Be Gen erally Worn Let It Have Femi nine Appellation. j It Is thought by some in Germany that the name "harem skirt” or more horrible still “trouser skirl” Is the only thing that prevents the spread and general use of this much talked of article of wearing apparel. So these same people have offered a prize for the best names and have hit up "Ama zon" and “cavalier" skirt as a result, and hope by keeping these more allur ing titles before the feminine public to popularize the garment. Not that it needs so much to be popularized, they say. The leading German shops ad vertise it in bewildering variety, and privately claim that orders are pour ing in to a degree which shows tbaL I like other extreme modes gone be- ' fore, the trousers—er. that is. the j cavalier skirt—is sure to conquer in ! the end But if the more timid fol- ‘ lower of fashion buys one. and keeps it hanging in her closet to gaze upon t with awe and admiration, yet is afraid to wear a "trouser” skirt upon the ; street, by all means let us christen It . with something softer and more fern!- j nine.

Last August there visited the Cana dian west the vice-president of the largest individual hardware company in the United States. As his firm have a turnover of millions, and deals ex tensively with farm implements, this man took a deep interest in crop con ditions in Canada, and on his return he embodied his findings in an article for the Hardware Reporter. This ar ticle should be of special interest to farmers. The writer speaks of the importance of the spring wheat crop of Western Canada. He might also have spoken of the importance of the cat crop ar.d also of the winter wheat crop, as well as barley. Winter wheat during the past few years has been a great suc cess, and experiments have shown that it can be grown with success in almost any portion of the three prov inces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. But apart from this, the spring wheat crop is the one generally grown, and all who know anything of grain, anyone who has had anything to do with markets, knows or has heard of the high character of this cereal and the splendid yields that are annually produced. Reproducing from this article:— “In a land of such great sweep, and of such difference in soil and climate, there are many resources, but none are at present of the same overwhelm ing importance as the spring wheat egop. In' the interminable prairie stretches of the northwest provinces ‘ it is the one absorbing topic of inter est and of conversation during its growing and its harvesting, for upon its success or failure hangs the weal i or woe of a large part of the Domin-! ion. Its influence extends far down j into the United States, drawing thou- i sands of farmers northwards with the ' lure of cheap lands, but likewise be- j yond the great lakes, even to the easy going maritime provinces, calling the 1 flower of their young men to its op portunities. Development in these prairie provinces goes on at high pres- ; sure for everything hangs on the out come of spring wheat. Success has emboldened the raisers of this one all important crop, and each year there is further incursion into those north ern fields that only a short time ago were regarded as Arctic wastes. The Canadian Northwest seems to be one • of those modern agricultural examples set forth to drive the final nail in the coffin of that ancient Malthusian de lusion that population tends to outrun the means of subsistence, sines the only fear now among Canadian econ omists is as to the danger of over stocking the wheat market. Only about two and one-half per cent of possible arable lands in the northwest provinces is now under cultivation, and this year the crop promises to be close to 200,000,000 bushels, so that your Imagination and your arith metic can easily supply the answer as to the possible or even probable out come.” During the months of July and Au gust the weather was unfavourable and the production of a 200 million yield of wheat will not likely be real ized, but even with this, the threshing reports coming to hand show that the crop will be a splendidly paying one. Toasting the Teachers. There was a meeting of the new teachers and the old. It was a sort of love feast, reception or whatever you call it Anyhow, all the teachers got together and pretended they didn't have a care in the world. After the eats were et the symposiarcb proposed a toast: ''Long Live Our Teachers!” it was drank enthusiastically. One of the new teachers was called on to respond. He modestly accepted His answer was: "What oar - I Risky Business. Mrs. Crawford—I’ll be glad when this false-hair fad goes out Mrs Crabshaw—So will I, dear.
