heeded- In the. -prosecution of the

person going into the woods during

from smoking, as any fire allowed
to. get beyond control is not only
extremely dangerous to all classes

Are they rodda of! silk or nre they
of wool? That Is the question that
glues pur eyes to the new showings of
suit and leads us to take many an
extra step for n closer view.-; It turns
out that many 'of the suits- for mid
summer are: made of new weaves In
silk fabrics that are aoft and supple
and have little luster, so they keep us
guessing. Besides the all-silk fabrics
there are silk and wool mixtures, all
of them calculated to make its forget
to deplore the scarcity of wool. In
least the government should see. fit to
commandeer the wool production It
will be ne hardship to wear these new
'fabrics. ' ' . ' . '
There are many belted models In
the new-modes and many coots open
over trig-looking pique vests, - Uneven
lengths, cleverly applied buttons and.
unusual pockets are features that tone
up-their style flue points In the tech
nique , of. making. ; Skirts grow nar

finds slendrrncss adorable and design
ers, hnve grown marvelously clever la
fashioning suits along such trim lines
that 'they suggest sllmness even on a
plump figure. -This bit of. camouflage
is well worth considering. -1" "
- The suit pictured might be made ot
one' of the' neV, silks or Silk and wool
mixtures, and.lt would be effective In
pongee or poplin or In light weight
wool materials. It embodies the salient
features qf the season's modes for mid
summer with Its coat pointed at the
bottom and belted about the sides and

In rows to the. sleeves. Two of them
at each side are slipped through actual

SPECLATING ON DRIVE
As Many La Grande People Know
Too Well
When tho kidnevs are weak or dis
ordering they fall behind in filtering
the blood of posions. As thefe poisons
attack the nerves, the result is felt in
spells of vertigo, just as drunkenness
will make a mardizzy from the foi
soning of alcohol.! Dizziness, headache
backache and irreVuIarity of the kid
ney secretions are mil signs of weak or
disordered kidneyslnnd should not be
neglected. Use Dion's- Kidfiey Pills,
tho home-endorse kidnqw remedy.
Read this La Granoo-rcsient's state
ment: i
Mrs. C. I.Johnsol, 01 Spring St,
says: "l have ueenj subiect to kidney
disorders at times whicl has caused a
dull pain across thfisrrll of my hack.
My head has ache otd I would get
so dizzy I could harlljf walk across the
floor. During an fctteck my kidneys
have acted lrregula-1 and I have felt
miserable in every way. After I have
taken a box or twtVjof Doan's Kidney.
Pills, however, I have been freed from
all kidney trouble. My back would
stop aching, my kidneys would act
regularly and in every way I would
feel as well as ever."

War Expert Believes Move Will Be
, . toward Paris. . ;
NEW YORK, July 13. Persistent
I French attacks tjetween the Aisnc and
tne niarne strongly suggest, huh, ura
eral Foch believes Von Hindenburg's
next offensive, if it materialises a,j
all. will be directed against Paris.
The Aisne-Marne front is the best
jumning off place for an advance on
Paris. eThis is especially true of the
northern sector. It is here, east of
the Villers-Cotterets forest that Gen
eral Foch has lately concentrated his
efforts to improve his local positions.
Today's official, , French report an
nounces still another victory in this
district which may well be regnrded as
the outer defenses of Paris. : -." ' :
The Vlllera-Cotterots forest Is the
most valuable defensive area in Gen-
oral "FpcW'posyessren-betWee
Aisne and the Marne. The Uernwns
have advanced to the eastern fringe of
the forest,' but are" how. being shoved
back- it important lobal points. Theac
8dccessfur assaults by General' Foch
are adding to the defensive security of
tho t rench ' positions, but tney siso
cravely mterfore with such prepara
tions as Von Hindenburg may be
making for a drive in that area,
The Villers-Cotterets forest splen
didly protects the , principal railway
running from the Aisne-Marne front
to Paris. There is an admirable path
for a quick lash toward Paris some
twclvp miles wide between this rail
wnv and the Oureq and Marne rivers
which form a continuous stream. If
Von Himienburg : could penetrate
through the forest he would hove
overcome the chief obstacle to seirinp
this runway to Paris. '
Thereafter the French would have
no natural defenses to assist in the I
frontal defense of their capital. They
would have to rely largely on threat
ening the two Gorman flanks near
Compiegne and Chateau Thierry.
Thise threats certainly would rcvelor
now complications, for Vcn H . iden
burg. But with tho Villers-Co.'.ti)rets
forest, in the enemy's possession, the
allies' task would be seriously in
creased. General Foch, ther3? ).", in
tends fr p i ke sure that Von Hinlen
burgs line lin-nins to the ea-t of tie
foiest and such is the purpose of his
present activities;
