tf. FOR QUICK SALE! Two or three small farms; possession given January 1st, if you act AT ONCE. REAL ESTATE DEPARTMENT THE PEOPLES TRUST CO. WHAT CAN WEG DO? In the matter of wearing mourning I for relatives who have given their lives for their country there are two opinions. One is that it is inadvisable to wear black because it depresses people.

We must not ask others to mourn with us, or even remind them of mourning. The other is that a proper respect for the dead almost compels a period of mourning apparel. It is a matter which each one must think out for herself. The Red Cross has adopted a substitute for the usual mourning and the last bulletin of the central division has this to say: American Red Cross will provide the mourning brassards 1 to be worn by relatives of men who have given their lives to their country, according to an announcement made by the war council. These brassards, which are to be used in lieu of general mourning, were suggested and designed by the woman's committee of the council of national defense, the Idea being heartily indorsed by President Wilson in a letter he sent to the woman's committee.

They will be furnished free to the parents or widows of men who have died in the service and at cost to other members of the family. "The brassard, which is to be worn on the left sleeve, midway between elbow and shoulder, is a band of black broadcloth or other material three Inches wide on the surface of which the regulation military star is embroidered in gold thread. The number of stars on a brassard will denote the extent of the sacrifice made by each family. "The brassards will be made and distributed by the chapters of the Red Cross working in conjunction with local units of the woman's committee of the council of national defense. An initial supply of materials for the manufacture of the mourning emblems has been purchased by the Red Cross and will be forwarded to the 14 divisions of the organization for distribution through their chapters.

It is expected that the first of the brassards will be ready for distribution about the middle of September. A brief statement accompanying the announcement says: adopting this insignia the wom- an's committee desired that it should never be commercialized, but that it should always be possible for the members of the families of those who have made the supreme sacrifice to prepare for themselves this badge of For the Fall Bride. A gift which will remind the little bride who undertakes to furnish a home in wartime that Mr. Hoover has his eye on her, is a bread bag. It is made of sturdy cotton; an unbleached muslin would do well.

Into i it the scraps of bread left from the table are put and are kept comparatively fresh for use at the next meal or for bread puddings or bread crumbs. The reason for the bag is that war bread seems to keep so much better when wrapped in a cloth than when left in the regulation box, where it is apt to mold it the box is close, or dry out if the box is left open. Embroider the word bread, or an outline of a cut loaf on this bag if you are thinking of giving it to some little bride you know. Chemise Dress. The chemise dress, if present indications count for anything, has come to stay.

These new ones for winter hang in severely straight lines from shoulder to hem, and they do not show the additional underskirt with which they were provided last season. Some of them are plaited In fine accordion plaits and others are provided with extra applied and floating panels at the sides of the skirts. As for the belts, they are mostly made of very thin strips of the material from which the gown is constructed, and they are tied loosely to confine the gown in some semblance of a waistline. Satin Footwear. High black satin boots, for house wear, are true leather savers.

They are really very smart. They lace snugly about the ankles and are made with French heels and moderate points. Oxfords of black satin also laced, are another autumn specialty in the shoe shops. These are especially pretty for informal house wear in the afternoon. Hats and Scarfs Join Forces Occasionally during the past summer ore ran across a turban, or small hat, with a long tulle scarf attached and this scarf was simply an elongation of a puffed drapery of tulle over a crown of flowers.

Now that fall is here someone of those clever people who think up our headwear was inspired with the happy idea of substituting velvet or velveteen or broadeloth for tulle--and we lave a chic and youthful winter hat wit. a cozy scarf attachment. It is novelty and becoming. Moreover, the scarf is very practical, and we may see this combination developed in several ways. The odd and pretty bat in the picture has a narrow brim and side crown covered with sapphire blue and gray brocade in satin.

The crown is a puff of blue velvet and the scart is of velvet lined with satin. It is tacked to the brim at the right back and wraps abont the throat, the ends falling--one to the back, over the shoulder. There are two small bead tassels on each end of the scarf. This coquettish model happens to be ronde of velvet with brocade, but broadcloth OP duvetyn would suit even better for it, using either brocade or fur for the brim. It has something WE HAVE JUST RECEIVED ONE DOZEN NEW PERFECTION OIL STOVES The simplest and one of the best Oil Stoves on the market.

The United States Government requests the people of the United States to do their Christmas buying early this season. This course is made necessary by the shortage of labor and the fact that stores will not be allowed to employ any extra help for the holiday season. The holiday buying, therefore, must be extended over a longer period than usual. Do you want to help your country? Then, heed your country's call to do your holiday buying early; and begin at once to visit the stores and make your purchases. Of course, you will do much of your Christmas shopping at a jewelry store- and JOYE'S invites you to make this your Christmas jewelry store.

The store that always has something new has a wonderful stock of Christmas merchandise, from which gifts for the whole family and those outside the family may be selected. Beautiful gifts, useful gifts, appropriate gifts are here in great variety. COME EARLY TO JOYE'S AND DO YOUR CHRISTMAS BUYING. JOYE JEWELRY COMPANY of the rollicking character of tam in which millinery artists delight and make us wonder that it can be interpreted In so many ways. Rich materials lend it dignity and the same is true of the scarf hat shown above.

Julia On the Brim of Your Hat. Two feet away it was strikingly good looking. Any black velvet sailor would be with al wide woolen Romanstripe binding about the edge of its brim. A closer inspection proved again how very effective absurdly simple things can be. Mercerized cotton did it.

Chinese blue, orange, purple, green and black were used this ways A simple over-and-over stitch made the binding, a solid two inches of the circumference done in the blue, the next in purple, then green, then black; and so on all the way round the hat. A pretty variation of this form of trimming would be to use a blanket stitch instead of the simpler over -over. Then straight strands of the cotton might be wrapped round and round the crown to simulate a band..
