careful tailor work with plain finish
like that in the mems garments. No
trimming can be tolerated on the tweed
suits except careful stitching and the
buttons. The larger and fewer Of these
the better for style. Some Of the Ban
nockburn tweeds have slight effects Of
other cclors than the general one in
tiny knots and fine threads showing at
unexpected places and times, not
enough to be noticeable, but still
enough to give little variety. For In
stance, there Is light brown tweed
with a green thread and sometimes a
fine red one showing as though quite
by accident.
After the tweed suits the cheviots
are probably the best. They are pro-
duced in excellent quality and are
made so we'll and are cut on such fine
lines that fewer dresses are required
than when they are made of poorer
qualities and in an inferior manner.
The long coats also lend their dressi-
ness to making a finer and more ele-
CANT suit
For what we call tailor suits tweed
in one of it's forms is the best and most
durable Of materials, with cheviots,
Examines, meltons, zibelines, home
spuns and mixtures following in the
order mentioned, and there are also
quite number Of light coverts and
.brilliantine and sicilienne suits for run
abouts. These last are made up in dis
tinct tailor manner, though some Of
them to suit every taste have sun or
accordion plating.
Some of the blue cheviot suits have
the skirts cut in seven cores, snug at
the hips, with a long straight fronted
coat. These coats often have fly
fuonts and sometimes double breasted
effects. In whatever way they are
made they look WELL The straight
fronts will doubtless be the favorites.
They are satin lined, and all are more
or less ornamented with strappsng.
Most Of the sleeves are in coat shape.
| Black, blue, light brown, mixtures
and the nickel and gun metal shades of
gray are very fashionable for these
most useful suits. The nickel and gun
metal are to be found all through the
| list Of woman's special requirements
| On the fine silk warp henrfettas, or
ribbons, silks, satins and velvets and
velutinas, feathers, gloves, buttons and
all sorts of ornaments one finds the
nickel and gun metal shades with their
subdued luster; and in satin and taffeta
the two shades are beautiful.
Even in deep mourning the clever
workers have somehow been able tC
give the black garments something OF
the luster of metal in the application
of highly finished black satin ribbon
