Coats seem to predominant in these
early spring suits, which are lined WIN
shot taffeta silk throughout. The coats
are made easy fitting to be worn over

OF velvet and a bib of ecru euipure
The skirts are made close fitting round
hips and fashioned in the back with
flar;ng godet plaits that extend the
width at foot to four Yards. Other coats
are decidedly masculine in appearance,
made with buttoned fronts, like mans
frock coat. The easy fitting backs are
made very full below the waist line and
the sleeves are very ample at the top.
Most Of the new cloth dresses on ex-
hlbltlon now have some sort of a basque
over the hips. The short ripple founce,
cut circular, opening in the front and
back, is a favorite. Often this is made
entirely separate from the waist, to
which it is attached by belt.
Of all the new materials, however, the
fine wool crepons seem to take the
palm. They are most delightful thin
fabrics. Among the newest effects are
puckered lengthwise stripes that are
brocaded. Then there are the broche
crepons with the most exquisite color

woman, when made up with lace and
ribbons of the same color. More Ell
fective are those light crepons combined
with black satin. A dainty dress has the
long pointed overskirt, slightly raised
on the hips, such as were worn some
twenty wears ago. The overskirt is bor-
dered with band Of black insertion.
Black, white and ecru are combined by
daring modistes, an ecru crepon dress
being made, for instance, with yoke
OF black satin covered with white lnser-
ton. For those who wear black, a fine
crepon is a pretty dress, trimmed with
let and black guipure. Cross striped
black and white crepons are also beaut-
full. These goods are Is inches wide
and may be safely recommended to any
one desiring stylish light weight toilet.
Other special goods for spring are the
silk-corded beiges, the melange novel
ties and dotted all-Wools. Bunbeg is an

cords, cheviots and diagonals are. all
