THREE RELIABLE SUMMER FROCKS. Now that the long hours of sunshine are upou no we are having the trying sort of weather that makes one long for green fields -and cool clothes -cool not only to wear, but to look at. The lat- est development of the "gown of dainty White" is that made of broderie ange- laise having an mulerslip of white, pale rose or pale mauve, which gleams through the embroidery. A big, slimly hat of broderie anglaise over mauve, and a big mauve chou on it would eompIete a delightful picture, White Linen. The white linen suit ornament with flax embroidery, composed of a jaunty little coat and short skirt, is a most useful acquision. Many of the coats have a black patent leather belt thread. ed through. For wear with these suits are dainty lingerie blouses of the finest lawn, finished off with a large frill at the side. The frill is on the newest blouses, and is most becoming, A Large Frill, For morning wear, with a serge skirt, the frill can be edged with the same color as that of the skirt. The blouse is again in favor, and it well known house is scoding out some delightful models, many of them of the washing variety, most smavtly cut, and -jean - at very moderate prices. One diecovered also some soft white duck skirts at a most exelusive house, which one could secure at the price one would have to pay for it most indif- rent article in the °raillery way. e • A PARISIAN COSTUME. Black and white as a combination has long been a fad in Paris, and this sketch from that gay town in- dicates the craze is still on. This is a dress of black and white striped linen, with lace shoulder caps, a belt and a rosette in black satin, and a black and white linen hat trimmed only with a eltister of a Into ostrich plumes.

"Christ callea Peter and the (other) apostles, and sent them as laborers in is vineyard, early in thd limning of the Christian dispen- sation."-Whedon, II. Later laborers sent (vs, 3-7). 3.

God is constantly calling new workers into His service. Whatsoever is right I will give you -There was no de- finite amount fixed upon.

THE HONEY CROP Beekeepers Advised to Hold Their Goods For Late, Shipments, Prices Suggested For This Year - Beekeeping Prosperous, Toronto Despetene-That there re money to be moue by keeping bees Was proven at tlea umettoime of the Hersey match:Inge Committee ofthc Ontario Bee- eeepers' eilasuciation as the Parliament' Buildings yesterday, when it was report, M that there had been au increase .01 tot per cent. in the number of hives in the Provinee. Reports were received front IGO pains throughout the Province, re- inesenting 23,082 hives of bees. Iteporte op crop conditions showed that there was practically no 91d honey joft on the market, alai all reports indleated that din 1000 prices suggested. by the commit- oie were realized. The average ptodue- tion per eolony of light houey is 44.3 ponnds, as compared with 50.1 teat year, While the -crop in the weseern and into tre part of the Provinee, where the buik of the merketable honey is produced, is lower considerably than last year's. there is a much Weer crop in the eaeL. era counties, which rias.kept up the even age. niter coasidering the reports carefully the committee would recommena Me fol. anving plea fur theanear: No. 1 light extracted (winters:ne), 10 to pc per No. 1 light extracted (retail), le 12 to 13c per lb. No. 1 comb (wholesale); $130 p $225 per dozen. No, 2 comb (wholesale), $1.5Q to 51.75 prr dozen,- The committee finds that large (luau. titles of extracted honey have already been sold by Peel county beekeepers at 10 3.8e, car lots, 1.0.1. shipping point for the Western markets. In view of the iicerense irt the crop and the firm prices of fruit, the committee believe that the above prices should be realiwd and would suggest that beekeeperu hold part of their honey for later delivery, unless present prices are satisfactory, The lo- cal demand, which is Increasing, should be specially looked after, A, later report will be issued to eover buckwheat boney. APPLE GROWERS .1•••••••••••••• Drop in Canada's Apple Crop is Heaviest on Continent, Report at Shippers' Congress Shows That it is Thirty Per Cent, •••••••••••••• Niagara, Falls, N.

"If present prospects are inalzitained," he said, "the country will have plenty of apples of better*than average quality. The Pacific States evil produee One of the heaviest crops ever harvested." A sununary of the report follows: The New England group shows an increase of about forty per cent. The centralgroup, winch is the largest pro- dueing group, shows increases in Ohio, Delaware and New Jersey over last year's, New York's crop evil lequal last year's, Pennsylvaitia, Michigan and Wis- consin show coneiderable decline, with the increases scarcely sufficient to off- set the shortage. This group shows a decline from last year of five to ten per ecte middle west, or Ben Davis group, promises a crop practically equal to the one of it year ago. The southern and Pa- cifie groups will show an increase of fol- ly fifty per ceot. Canada, not including the Province ea Nova Scotia, shows a decline of thirty per cent. "Upon the question of quality, the situation is decidedly' better than ono year ago. New langlend, New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio all promise much better quality, as does also the southern group, while the Pacific group promises exceptiontilly gooR quality in the whole territory. The mita die west, or Bet Davis group, Mitre front poor to good, with it considerable portion of it of only fair quality. • 4 • HAS WOMAN'S EYE. 41.66.0.6.4.3•V• When New Cornea it Grafted Onto Chinese, He Will See 0.
