Women sometimes adopt a fashion, or a change of an existing fashion, often a detail of the - costume, for uo other apparent reason save that it is a change something new. They have been comfortable for a period with a certain fashion. Then Paris dress makers, because they must hive new details to sell their gowns, issue an edict changing the styles. American dressmakers and manufacturers of women's flue gowns fall in with the money-making change and behold we have a new fashion. Many times it ins't as comfortable or as practicable as the old one, but it is new, therefore the woman must have it. Tune was when she followed a now style blindly and retained it though she suffered incouveniouce Irotu it, But more receutly she has Bsserted her independence and discarded styles which were not comfortable and gone back to the formei more practicable ones. An interesting recent example of this is the rebellion against the long sleeve. For several seasons the short sleeve was worn by women, who found it comfortable, sightly aud in every respect a desirable fashion. Paris says this year that the sleeve mnst be long, even to the back of the hand and must fit the arm tiuhtlv. The American makers of waists hailed this with delight. It meant some' thing new. So did the American dressmakers. They advised long sleeves and made them very long. ant already the indications are strong that the long sleeve is doomed. women are outline it uncomfortable after the short sleeve, even for even kg wear, and will undoubtedly revert in the early spring to the short sleeve.

Drink Talk There is hardly a spot inside of the tropic zone where tea or coffee cannot be grown, possibly barring the Sahara Desert.

Our understanding of the tea and cof fee situation has made it possible for us to select a number of grades that pretty nearly cover the whole scale of variation in taste. We can just about cuarantee to pive you the finest "cup" you ever tasted if you will sample a few of our brands. A ROBERTSON, The Seventh Street Grocer. Barton.
