Now some of the growers are fearful of a glut, and it looks as though It was com ing. Because the crop cannot he moved to the canneries rapidly enough. TTTHICH shall It be when it comes to the more or less formal and eve ning occasions the cape or the cloak? There is much to be said on both sides. I shall, however, let the cape present Its arguments another time. Today the cloak is here and shall speak for Itself. Just because It has sleeves the cloak claims that It la more generally comfort able and practical, and I think we will admit the Justice of this claim It Is said by many that the cape is quite all right for the limousine, but that com paratively few- are proprietors. Regard less of this, the cape has been remark ably popular this last season, but it re mains to be seen If tt will hold Its posi tion this coming fall. Be that as it maj the cape without doubt has greatly influenced the design ing of the cloaks, vvhich are in most cases a combination of the good polntJ of the cape and the cloak. It will not be difficult for you to get my .meaning when j-ou look at the sketch todaj-. Certainly for the woman who must use modes of conveyance other than the family motor a coat of dark natural coloring Is the only sensible choice. And because It la neutral it can be worn with virtually any dress and at most any time. Of course, It Is not. strictly speaking, the proper garment for a fprmal evening function. The material aids In giving thle model an air of elegance, for It Is a very hand, some satin, and nothing has u preference over satin for coatg of this type. The absolute plainness of thla model also dig nifies the garment. The back of this wrap resembles a cape hanging quite full The front is held In place with a satin belt which fastens with a buckle.

I believe I discovered one today. 1 speak of a display of well knit sweaters, with sleeves. They slip on over the head, are purled at the waist, and have cuffs and square col lar of contrasting color. Notable among them fs a combination of well, I guess jou'd call ir a deep pink and gray. The original price of these models, some of which come In Just one color. 'was $5.50, but they have been Repriced at 13.95. f Ever since I saw the living room of a friend of mine, t have loved square candles. The1 wallpaper la a soft, rest ful gray, the woodwork Is of white, and on the highly polished floor Is a blue rug Her furniture Is of mahogany and the lamp sheds a warm rose glow over everything. And vet, I vow, the finish ing touch, without which Ijer coiy room would lose much of Its marked Indi viduality. Is given by the mahogany, candlesticks on either aide' of the piano, with their square blue candles. These candles, generally quite expensive, I dis covered todav In pale pink or red for ten cents 'each. Pink ought to look well In your bedroom. If 'ou are as fond nf having one or two sterling silver picture frames on your dresser as I am. 1 feel sure that you will be glad to hear that they can be purchased light reasonably. 1 chanced upon one style, perfectly plain, ,tnd about thtee Inches square, for seventy-five cents. They mako a very good appearance. Get out that picture for which you have wanted a frame so long, and try It In one of those frames 1 saw. today. You'll be delighted with the effect.
