Two NEW MATERIALS.—I saw two new materials at the Pioneer Silk Store both of which would be eminently suitable for present. needs. The one is gabardine silk. which is mads in several pretty shades of brown and beige and would be nice for jumper suits. It is mercerised silk and only costs $1.30 4 yard double width and washes splendidly. The other material is. called Pioneer Crape and looks like very wall finished Canton Crêpc. This comes in a very wide range of colours and is, of course, ali pure silk though only costing $3.50 yard. It is sure to prove a popular silk for Autumn wear as it has that salidity and weight which look beat for all but summer dresses. aro washed

The London Underground were the first to cater pictorally for the Englishman's love of his garden. Their bright posters have given happiness to thousands who lavish tender care on a dusty geranium in back yard, and have done more to pay for their new venture of extending their lines into the coun- try than any other form of adver tising could have done.
