A Word About the Seasons Styles In
.--. Ladies' Garments. 80


r.. Ladies' Garments. ~
This being Easter Week and ladies
wishing now, as they have in the past,
to appear in something new, even as
Spring does-every one has been busy that
art should keep pace with nature. The
ladies' tailoring and dressmaking depart
ments Of The Plymouth have not fallen
short of their ideal and the demand Of
the season, sending out many garments
that would be hard to rival in beauty Of
texture, design or workmanship.
One DESTROYS Of finding the late novel
ties that have come into modish use this
season can not be disappointed If she
seeks them among the choice and ex-
elusive selections kept in the display par
lors on the third floor of the Plymouth.
Ceremonious occasions suggest that
comfort lies in being dressed with a
light GOODNESS of texture found in. veil
ings, crepes, grenadines, gazelines, soft
that enhance their softness. Anything in
lace, whether fine and cobweblike or
heavy and elegant is charmingly used on
nearly all garments worn by ladies this
season. .'E', .-@'s
A heavy silk crash trimmed with Rus
sian lace makes a gown that must please
the most fastidious, while a much less
expensive garment, whose use every one
can appreciate, can be made of linen crash
and trimmed with less expensive lace, and
yet be garment that is very pleasing.
One could go on Indefinitely with sugges-
| lions Of material and models that are here
shown by those who make 1t their aim
and study to please each individual and
you are sure here to be treated with that
courtesy which is a character of this
| house in all it's departments.

Partly Cooked cere ais Dangerous.

In the common-sen crusade in favor OF

use Of starch foods. Partly cooked cereals
are dangerous. They enter the stomach in
