' 15 yards of a good stripe flannellette or vat at Stewaa t's. Its big value. Forecasts for September. A reactionary storm period is cen- tral on the 7th and 8th and this fact most probably, will cause storms which originate on the 6th to continue over the 7th and 8th. If high barom- eter follows close behind any of the early September storm;, areas, frost will be almost a certainty in. northern sections. A regular storm period is', central on the 12th and covers the 10 to the 15th. Look for high tempera- ture: low barometer,threatening storm clouds and severe electrical phenom- ena, centering progressively on the llth to the 14th. Here again it is problematical whether a high barom- eter from the northwest and change to much cooler will follow these storms. Dressy young men .wear the King stiff hat. Its the most up-to-date kat that is shown. Stewart has the agency.
