The Wingham Advance, 1911-08-03, Page 2A careful study of the latestfashion
that appear at this time of year is well
worth while, for among the models now
exhibited there are many that will be
selected for the coming autumn and
winter, To be sure, it takes a, trained
eyes to discern always the possibilities
that lie dormant in the linen or silk
gown, in the cloth or velvet one; but
the lines are there and the most strik•
Ing stylet ere always attempted well
la. advance to give an opportunity to
judge as to whether they are smart ann
attractive.
Silk and Satin Gowns.
Silk and satin gowns are far better
milted to the spring, autumn and winter
seasons_than to summer, but there are
many times &kilns the season when
they are far more comfortable to
wear than are the gowns of thinner ma-
le terial.
Dark colors as well. as hla0k satin
gowns are smart and effective and are
being made now in a variety of new
models. A changeable blue is extremely
smart 'very dark in shade but with a
glint of lighter color throughout. The
overskirt is to be noticed in all the new-
est satin gown, and there are few if
any 'plain 'skirtsamong the latest
models. Tunic effects are not so new as
the draped double skirt or the wide
bands of the material so fashioned that
no other trimming bi require& A wide,
straight fold the width of the satin,
drawn tight across the front and at the
sides, gives a most singular effect, but
carries out the still prevalent idea of a
Scant skirt, relieved by a flat box pleat
or panel at the beck. Below the band
there is. either a wide fold of the satin
or a, deep, scant flounce.
Atrrattive Skirt Model.
One of the neweat skirts fastens a
little to the left of the front and is
open from the hem for several inches,
showing plaited chiffon trimmed with
wide fancy braid. Around the centre of
the skirt across the front end sides is
a band of the same braid; at the back
tbe skirt hangs straight from belt to
Item like a panel, and is gathered at•
the belt to give a little fulness. This
is a universally becoming skirt and
looks well in almost any material, al-
tlkough the original model was made in
satin. Another model that stands every
chance of being popular next winter as
well as et the moment is gathered on
to the belt, not made fell, but with en-
ough' fuloess to make it different from
the flat, scent style; then the upper
part does not reach to the bottom .of
the -skirt, but is eut off and shows a
pinged flounce or plain band on the
bitter skirt. This model has been made
more often in voile, chiffon and trans-
parent materials combined with satin,
but is effective also in all satin or
eine. The skirt with three broad bends
os folds put on in bias lines from waist
to liem of skirt is smart if well nutde
and becoming, but is not a fashion to
be undertaken to lightly and inadvised-
as an inch •or two difference in the
width of the folds or id the draping
will entirely destroy the effect and
make the gown most unbecoming; It is
indeed one of the models that require
to he made by is clever dressmaker; its
very, simplicitv is a trap for the unwary.
Abnost without exception this sea-
son the gowns require eareful attention
as to fit and hang of the skirt. The
slight amount of •fulness at the waist
and the straight lines are difficult to
combine and the felness must be Ow
ed not ?too far forward or the wearer
will look both stout and ungraceful.
Just enough /nine* at the sides to
make the skirt hang straight, without
any 'break or curve in at the sides, is
required, for there must never be en-
ough for the akirt to hang forward in
front or out at the sides, for that ut-
terly destroys the lines that are now
demanded.
White gowns trimmed with eolored
embroidery are fashionable this emu -
mer, and. there are singularly few all
white gowns. The embroidery is work-
ed on the material itself or is in pendia.
and several smart models have the two
comblued. Embroidered' filet lace is a
fashionable pattern'the pattern on the
Inee outlined in eolor and then combined
with Wide of the plain lace is effect-
tive on silk or cotton voile, oe chiffon,
batiste or net. Then there are most
'eltanning gowns embroidered in color
and in effeetive designs, generally on
the conventional order. The bottom
of the tunic overskirt and the top of
or the 'blouse waist are covered. with
the embroidery, witile the rest of the
gown is left plain. A charming gown
of this d;escription has a stiff pattern
of pale blue flowers, then the skirt
below the tunic, is finished. ith two
folds of satin, just the color of embroid-
ery, Another in yellow flowers -palest
etraw yellow and finished with folds
of soft finished yellow taffeta Is most
becoming. The only other trimming
with such a gown ie tlae girdle, with or
without sash ends, whicheVer style is
the more becoming,
Lingerie Gowns Popular.
fAngerie gowns are at the very henr,,Itt
of the popularityat the moment, as
rightly they should be, this being the
season when they are tbe most appro-
priate. Except for the embroidery
and lace they are extremely simple and
design, the princess model on Empire
lines being the smartest, while if the
high waist line le unbecoming it is per-
mitted to lower it a trifle in front. For
this mercy many women are thankful,
as the straight, round belt if placed un-
becomingly, is most trying, giving a
square, thick look to the slenderest ft-
gure. 411 sorts and kinds of mater-
ials in finest, sheerest texture are in
favor this year, and while on these
thin, filmy materiale is worked the
most exquisite embroidery, there are
many models that have only lace entre-
ileaux edging and no embroidery et
all. Narrow pleated ruffles and pleat -
Inge of fine lace are also mart, and
ribbon run through shirred bands of
point d'esprit or some of the finer lace
insertions is it novel and smart ' trim-
ming. The full name waist with
square cut or aollarless waist is a fav-
orite model, but the crossed Beim with
the V shape open neck is often more he-
eoming and is equalY lfashionable. Then
the flat bretelIes and the kimono sleeve
are also used for the all white thin ma-
terial gown and are smart and becoming
Tbe same rule as to the high belt can be
applied to the fichu; if unbecoming
when crossed over too high on the hust
it ean b crossed lower and the ends
taken to the back, or one end can be
brought over to one side and finished
there with rosette or bow of silk or
satin ribbon, or nurse style, with a lace
rosette of the same lace as trims the
eithn.
Muslins and Dimities. •
Colored nmslins and dimities and dot-
ted muslins are included this eeaspn in
the fashionable materials. They are
made up with lace and almost any kind,
of lace is used. Filet, Valeneiennes and
the fine net taco are also to be seen
on the smartest of the gowns, while
finest baby Irish continues to bethought,
more than ever desirable.
There is a model that is extremely
smart nutde, with no trimming excepting
the collarless yoke, cuffs and band on
the front of the waist of the finest Ir-
ish. Th simplicity of the gown -is the
mast noticeable, but all the materials
are of the finest and ilibst expensive,
and there is a cut to the skirt that
marks. it the, design of an expert. For-
tunately, however, for the rank and Me
of avemankind, tiere are many models
this season that are not expensive and
are also smart.

COATS AND MANTLES FOR
WINTER.
The big vogue for winter will be for
the long garment, but there is at the
same time tezadeney to use forty-five
inch, lengths as the same novelty. So
little variation ean be given to the full
length garment of narrow. cue that de-
signers are inclined to shorten the lenath
to some degree. With the narrow new
skirts the seven -eighths length itt coat
or mantle looks well iudeed. This sim-
ulates the tunic efect of the dress skirt.
Particularly becaktee of the great vogue
for the under petticoat of contrasting
color in this, style desirable, as the
wraps of thie length give practically
the same effect. Certain new designs
in coats taken from Bast Indian effects
tend toward the shorter length. A spec-
ial design from Poiret shows a copy of
the military mantle. This garment is
about forty-five inches; long. In accord-
ance also with this idea simple coats
are being brought out made of mannish
materials and double-facee cloths in for-
ty-five inch lengths.

LESSON Vie -AUGUST 6, MIL
Jeremiah Tried and Acquitted....
Oer. 26: 144,
Commentary, --1. Warnings given by
Jeremiah. (v% I-6). ,Tereraiali was the
son of Hilkialk, a priest, but probably
not the Hilkinh who was high priest 14
the time of joiah. Ris hOnle Was at
Anathoth, it prieetly city a few milee
from, Jerusalem. He WAS 111 at position to
be familiar with the religious ana poli-
tical life of the nation. Called in early
life to be a prophet (Jer. I, 6), and be-
ing a priest also, weighty responeibil-
ties, voted upon him, "Itt misery and
continual peril of death ite witneesed
the fall of the state ansi the destruc-
tion of Jerusalem; he survived it, MO
in the silent torah of an alien lend," for
he 41ed in Egypt. The prophecies of
which which; a brief sunlinarY are Oven -
in the lesson are recorded in chapters
7-10. God directed the prophet to speak
these words to the people that they
might turn from their evil ways au
humble themselves before him, yet they
did not heed MS worde, "The more de-
finite be had become itt his warnings,
the more he excited the wrath of the
false prophets a,nd of those who sided
With them; and now that he had ex-
Plieitly announced (Jet-. 25. 11) a seven-
ty years' captivity, their indignation
hoiled over, altd they sought to cam-
pus his deatle"-Streane. Bite frequein
cy and persistency with which God bad
sent instructions and warnings to His
people, are elkown in the prophat's
words, "Both rising up early, and send-
ing them," The declaration that the
temple would be made like Shiloh ex-
pressed the doom that awaited the
house of the Lord if the peOPle failed
to hhearken."'Shiloh was once the seat
of Isreelitish government and the re-
ligious centre, but it had been aban-
doned and had fallen into decay.
IL Charges against the prophet (v8.
7.11). 7. Prieats“ prophets... ;people -
The words of Jeremiah had eugage.d the
attention of all classes. If, as the Sep-
tuagint has it, the prophets were "false
prophets," it is easily seen why there
wet such a hostile feeling against the
speaker. 8. Made an end of speaking -
The hearers respeetfully held their peace
'until the message was delivered. All
the people -A phrase indicating it gen-
eral agreement among themselves. Took
hins-Jletid hold on him." -It. V. thou
shalt surely die -The ground upon
which this penalty was declared was
that Jeremiah had prophesied falsely
and the ptmishnlent wording to the
law was death (Deut. 18. 20). 9. Why
hest thou prophesied -Since the people
were unwilling to believe the prophet's
mes.sitge, they pereuadiedi thlemkielVest
that he was a false prophet. Gathered
against --"Gathered unto." -It. V. The
trial 'tva.s about to take place. 10. The
princes of Judah -Probably the judicial
officers who 'were about the place, the
germ of the Sanhedrin of later times.
They evidentiv hail the power of life
and 11eettli.--157hedon. Heard these
things -Upon hearing the tumult of
the people they understood that their
services were needed to settle the dis-
turbance. Entry of the new gate- It
was probably the gate built by .Totham
(2 Kings 15. 35). Trials were usually
held at sueo a place as this. 11. Them
spoke the priests..unto the princes- A
formal accusation was presented against
the arrested prophet, and the ground
of the acatiBation. Prophesied against
•this citys-Their uobelief had construed
the words of a true prophet into a
false prophecy, and they would rather
have Jeremiah put to death than accept
the message.

Lord sent inc to prophesy -We can not
fail to admire the calm confidence of
the prophet. When he delivered the
message he was certain it was from the
Lord and.he was prepared to plead di-
vine authority for the words he had ut•
tered. This wee his only defense, but
it was sufficient. Their complaint was
in reality against God rather than
against the prophet. 13. Amend your
ways .and your doings -From defending
himselfhe turned asideto exhort his
accusers"'Ways' will mean rather the
settled habits, 'doings' the separate acts
which go to form thein." ---(Jam,.
Jeremiah had, only the welfare of his
people at heart, and he seems to have
lost sight of his own danger in consider-
ing the danger that threatened the na=
tion. The Lcird will repent hint of the
evil -The destruction which God had
foretold was to fall upon the people be-
cause of their sins, but if they would

ance and reformation., The Jaw was what
God himself had set before them. Those

God's entreaty to the people to repent
and Abe a declaration of what their re-
fusal to do SO would bring, Jeremiah
d‘eclered, he was commissioned to God
and spoke only the words he gave him.
He mingled hope with warning. His
prophecy aimed at the reel good of the
nation, making the morality of the na-
tion as imperative as that of the india
sidual. Jeremiah was candid In Warn-
ing the people of their punishment. Ile
was prudent in declaring his .divine
had oharity toward those -
Whom be exhorted to repent. Though
he ;melte fearlessly he spoke of peace as
well as wrath, and assured all men of
God's mercy to the penitent. Yet Jere-
iniah's message gave Buell offense that
he was in dangeroflosing his life for
presenting it. Instead of awaking con-
vietion among the priests it exasperat-
ed them.
II. Evaded by misrepresentation. The
priests and prophets assumed that the
thing which Jeremiah prophesied was ab-
solutely impossible, nail proceeded to
deal with him asa crhninal. He showed
thein that his motives were pod, andif
they did not make good use of his mes-
sage it would be their own fault. He
assured them repeatedly that he .was
Cod's messenger, and spoke what was
appointed unto hint to say, and was
therefore touter divine protection. He
warned them against their danger if
they proceeded against him. He had no
fear of death and haying it good eon -
science in a good cause he was fearless.
He exhibited resignation, meekness and
cheerfuluess under persecution: .As it
divinely -commissioned prophet Jeremiah
was above all hurnau tribunals. They
might think that killing the prophet
would defeat the prophecy, though it
would but add to their guilt and aggra-
vate their ruin. Jeremiah stood finn,
and God wonderfully preserved him. He
faithfully proclaimed God's message
though priests and false prophets spite-
fully persecuted him. He stood to his
doctline to the letter in the faee of his
persecutors and God raised up men to

into a court of appeal, before which
prophet and people were suramoned. Be-
fore them Jeremiah made his defence.
Ins plea was ever the same, that he
cottld not but utter the words with
Which the Lord had sent him. /Tis bold
and ingenuous defence turned the situa-

Jeremiah was left to go free. Sinters

to oppose a tide of worldliness and sin.

BRADSTREET'S TRADE REVIEW.
Montreal reports to 13radstreetas say
the general eitation as tegarde trade
there shows little from that of a week
ago. The volume of business actually
movin„as is not heavy and it has very
much the nature of mideummer business.
The sorting-btu:Mess in light goods is
eniet. City trade is moderate in volume.
While business is bound to be more or
less quiet at the moment, there is much
looking ahead to fall trade' for whica
indscations are generally satisfactory.
News regarding crops is'on the whole,
re-assuritig and there Is confides,: ex-
pectation of excellent business for the
fall and winter season. The demand for
staple groceries . is fairly active.
Toronto reports to Bradstreet'a say
business men there experienced some ap-
prehension durin gthe earlier part of the
week as a result of the reports of immi-
nent danger to the western crops by
frost. Later advices proved more set-
isfaetory and the end of the week finds
no abatement' from the optimistic ex-
pectatione for a bountiful harvest ant a
correspondingly heavy fall and winter
trade. In Ontario conditions are re-
ported slightly less favorable and the
crop in most varieties of grain will be
pretty •much of an average, both as to
yield and oondition.
Winnipeg reports say trade there is
steady in character. A fairly good busi-
ness is now moving in all lines and prospeets for businees continue excellent. A
reteunrinng.of bright, warm weather has been
extrm
eely weleozne and crops are rapidly
iip
Vanconver and Victoria say business
there lied at all other provincial points
continues exeeedpgry active.
Quebec reports to Bradstreet's. say:
Business is much about the same as the
preceding week.
Hamilton reports say trade there is
steady in tone a;nd of fair volume. Lo-
cal industries are actively engaged and
crops irt the district have shown ima
provement in the past week or so. Heavy
winds have done lime damage to the
fruit, but an average yield is expected
for most varieties. -
London reports say a good steady
ibusiness is now moving there and pro -
peets for later on have assumed a more
rosy appearance.
Ottawa reports say trade there holds
steady in tone and a fair volanne of busi-
ness is moving.
