There is a great demand this season
for plain English serges and the new
double-faced cashmere which is much
like drap d'ete. For utility costumes
the pretty broken checks with several
colors blended together seem to pre-

undeniably the peer of all known fab

Extremes meet in the departing glory

soft-textured spring novelties, and also
the daintisst of diaphanous summer ma
terials. that come like breath of June
in the midst of keen winds and tenn
porary billiards, with a delightful
promise of balmy days in thin, delicate
tints. When fur and heavy cloth are
the only things that suggest comfort,
the organdies, muslins, chiffons, chal-
lies and zephyr goods so reassuringly
displayed in the shop windows seem to
have lost their bearings, and one is
obliged to go inside to really enjoy the
beauty and attractions of these mid
summer dainties. But, strange as it
may seem, now is the time to make a
wise purchase of them, for the woman
who hesitates loses her chance to Sc
cure rhe cream of the display; for If
she believes that later on she can pur-
chase what now tempts her she makes

Yet all are too lightly woven to be un-

often brown-as blue alternating with
chestnut, or else rich Russian green
with tan brown. Black and tan cheviots
will be used strictly for tailor-made
gowns for general wear, while the more
elaborate costumes will be of faced cloth
in very handsome colors, with even
more intricate braiding than any seen
the past season.
The rage for short fancy bolero,

and scores of fancy plastrons, vests and

short fronts and jacket backs will be
worn in demi-dress, with an accordion
plated vest or waistcoat of some rich
stylish material. Black will be in high
vogue this spring, and black cloth with
a fine stripe of white mauve or gray

gowns. The more elegant black tex
