which the AIMS rest are so popular with
young aides that they are brought out In
all materials, and are made to complete
suits; these are inexpensive because
they req ire no trimming but silk cord

pelerlnes. Blue or green cloth capes
lined with red, drab cloth with red lin

of SUIT, will be used by misses and

these capes Is the leopard skin sets, with
turban and muff to match the cape, and

similar sets; there are also sets Of white
crlmpled Chinese goat for evening toilets.
