knot of the same. A panel effect is
produced by bands of the striped silk
placed on either side of the front of
the bodice. Directly down the front
are bows of the silk. The skirt also
has a paneled effect formed by the silk
bands which continue around the
skirt heading the double flounce of
the material. The upper one of the
flounces is finished by a broader band
of the striped silk.
HOP PICKING TO START
IN VALLEY SOON
For the week to date the weather
has been exactly what the maturing
hop crop required, and as a result the
growers who last week were a little
apprehensive regarding the safety of
the crop now take a hopeful view of
the situation. Continued sunshine is
of course needed to fully develop the
hops and keep them in, a clean and
healthy condition ,and weather indica
tions appear to be favorable. Late re
ports from a number of Valley points
say the crop is ripening rapidly, and
where the vines were given proper
care the prospect is for a crop of very
good quality.
Growers say that the rains last
week came at a time when they were
needed to stimulate hop growth and
increase the weight of the crop, and in
most of the Valley yards conditions
now are about as near ideal as they
well could be. It is of course true
that in some fields, where the growers
neglected spraying, the rains gave the
vermin .a further chance at the crop,
and in such yards some mold is to be
expected. It is not believed, however
that the extent of the damage will be
such as materially to lower the qual
ity average for the state's crop.
In the event of continued favorable
weather the chances are that picking
in some sections will start within a
few days, for the crop now is fast
nearing maturity. Harvesting opera
tions, however, will probably not be
generally under way for a week or 10
days.
The market for the time remains
quiet, but rather firm in tone, and the
indications are that not much in the
way of business will be done in the
Oregon market until the trade has a
fairly clear line on the quality of the
coming crop. On the whole the pros'
pect is favorable, both for the crop
and market, but dealers assert that
there is still a little uncertainty, and
this tends to hold business in check.
That values from this time on are
more likely to work up than down
seems to be the general impression
locally.

Gooa Freckle Lotion.
For freckles there is a motion which
Is very good Indeed. It consists of
chopped cucumbers or cucumbers cut
in slices with all the juice In them.
They are then bound upon the face in
such a way that the Juice will dry on.
For freckled and chapped hands
there Is a bath of witch hazel and cu
cumber juice in equal parts. This can
be applied to the skin with a little
sponge. After it has been on fifteen
minutes it can be washed off with
soap and water, for there is something
unpleasant about the nicest lotion
when it is allowed to dry upon the
skin.
The summer skin is a matter of much
anxiety, for in the summer all would
have a nice complexion, yet it is ex
tremely difficult when the sunshine
brings Its blemishes, and the very
winds are laden with tan and freckles.
APPROPRIATION BILL
"""" 18 AGAIN VETOED
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21. President
Taft again vetoed today the legisla
tive, executie and judicial appropria
tion bill because it still carried an
amendment, to abolish the Commerce
Court, which the House and Senate
insist upon including in the retrained
measure.
The provision to limit tenure of of
fice of civil service employes to seven
years, which was an additional reason
for the President's first disapproval,
had not been included in the bill a
second time.
Fashion Hints From Paris.
The sleeve gathered in long lines
from shoulder to wrist is the newest
sleeve of the moment. It is very be
coming to a thin arm, but the plump
armed woman should avoid it except
when the material Is transparent. The
contrasting ruffle falls over the hand.
Tbe newest tailor made coat is cut
Bomewhat ou the' lines of the old Eng
lish riding habit. It ends at the waist
In front, fastening . with a single big
button, and slopes off into a coat tail at
the ba?k.
