Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1907-04-06


pistache green and every shade of blue
are prominent spring colors, all be-
ing equally popular, and in the spring
the brilliant tones and light tints are
always welcome after the long winter
months Of furss and somber velvets
and cloths. Some dark grays are to
be worn, but these have used to some
extent during the winter, so that the
light shades will be a change. Mix
lures of two or more tones of the one
color will be fashionable, as we'll as
piaids, stripes and checks. Panama
cloth is a good weight for spring and
can be had in any tone desired.
1t is seen in plain walking suits, as
we'll as in rather elaborate coat and
skirt costumes for the afternoon. The
material is light yet wears better than
either wolfe or silk, ad, of course, does
not pull as the veilings are apt to do,
although 1t closely resembles heavy
canvass or wolfe. Canvas and heavy
wolfe are both attractive for the
spring.
Black and White Popular.
The combination of wlack and white
with perhaps just a shade of some COL
or to relieve the effect, is always more
or less popular, particularly in the
spring. when the aim is to have every
thing as light in tone as possible, and
yet garments must not be of too per-
ishable shades for city wear. This
WI IN all
textures from cloth to silk will be
seen among the newest models.
Stripes Are in Vogue.
Stripes, rather than plaids and
checks are in vogue just now, so that
is again possible to have an exceed
ingly smart black and white suit
without going in for the check or
shepherds plaids that became so tire
somely common two years back, and
yet which seemd the only style of
black and white dress that was pos
sible, save, of coures. the blacks trim
med with white or white trimmed il
some way with black, and these are
naturally in a different class Of gar
ments.
Paper Collars for Silks.
The striped black and white silks
are many Of them extremely attractive
this season, and are excellent for SIM
pie walking rdesses, as we'll as Tor
more elaborate frocks. The stripes
NAV be all of even width or else gradu-
ated from wide to narrow. Then, OF
course, the black may be more promi-
nent than the white, and vice versa
For really severe shirt waist dress
black and white striped louisine SILK
made with a short box-pleated skirt
and simple bodice, fastening in the
front with a double ruch or frill down
the center, the long sleeves fin1sheo
with frill cuffs is correct. the SUN
turn-iown collar of white embroidered
linen, with a soft tie like the material
~ the dress or some light shade OF
h,,e mauve or green, will keep the
bodice always looking fresh and neat
The cuffs may also be made 30 az

hroidered cuffs, and just this little
+oucb of white on a simple garment Is
most attractive. The belt may be a
wide girdle or narrow stitched Kino'
and II may be fastened by buckle or
hooked over, whichever fashion is the
more becoming.
Afternoon Gowns.
