For Spring and Summer.

After the momentous question of the
spring tailor costume is settled the
next gowns to be planned are the silks
that are to be worn during the spring
and summer, and, indeed, there are no
gowns in a woman's wardrobe that are
more interesting to decide upon.
There is something about a silk gown
hat makes it peculiarly attractive to a
fsoman, ard these fascinating summer
xilks, with their charming designs and
colorings, are almost impossible to re-
s!st, particularly this season, when

light yellows and orange, with an all
over Persian design that makes up
very satisfactorily.
The blue and white foulards that
have been pronounced out of style for
two or three years and have been worn

There is no striking novelty of design
among them but all are attractive.
Some cost as much as dollar and a
dollar and a half yard. but there
are many others that cost only thirty
nine cents. and will certainly wear one
season at least.
