they ere this spring. and. as IN the
cloth and silk costume, the coat of silk
is thought smarter than the coat OF
the same material as the skirt. Bands
of silk trimmed with lines OF the mar
row braid are another fashion, and
often the silk band with tho dark
braiding is used in preference to the
same colors. but. this Is again one OF
the details to be solved by Individual
taste, and conservative taste invariably

Waists to match the skirts are again
the most fashionable this spring. but
almost invariably is there short coat
or wrap to be worn with the gown.
This Is on the order OF the short wrap
with long shoulder effect, not generally
becoming, IL must be admitted, and yet
decidedly smart. As a rule this style
OF wrap has the disadvantage that it
completely hides any lines OF the figure
and unless cut exactly right gives the

following season and the more
enterprising modistes display cos
tunes for early spring and summer
To the initiated sn the mysteries OF
dress these advance styles are fraught
with many dangers. They may IN truth
be what they claim, advance styles:
they may be models that have been cx-
hibited 20 en- exclusive few and found
wanting, or they may have been dn-
ished too late 90 and the proper market
at the proper time and have conse-
quently had 20 be held over.
Now is the time OF year when II re-
ouires all ones cleverness, knowledge
and educated taste 20 decide upon
costume for the spring among the many
fashions exhibited on the order OF
those 3ust alluded 60. the really latest
and authoritative models from the
leading houses. as wei as the rank and
file. so 10 speak, OF the ones that are
already prepared for the multitude. Tn
I'll into the month OF March there are
marked down bargains 20 be found
here and there-gowns for one-half and
sometimes one-third the original price.
To be sure, the original price was prob
ably absurdly extortionate. Too glar-
ing a color, too radical a change IN
fashion or too pronounced novelty
often makes a gown that would be
charming for one woman impossible
for the majority. and It is this sort OF
thing that provides the bargains.
II IS a mistake even for the chance
OF securing a bargain TO choose too &c
centric a model, however. and on that
account II Is best 20 so where the more
conservative styles are 20 be found. At
the same time Il must be remembered
that fashion which seems too eccentric
one season often becomes quite possible
when once popular and modified by
more conservative rendering OF the
original idea. with all these directly
conflicting statements II IS indeed a
task that requires good judgment and
by the priviiy expressed opinions of
each and every dressmaker who has
model gowns left over that she wishes

while IN many instances the coiors and
materials worn seem inappropriate un-

that they are worn. and IN great num-
ber,' makes them fashionable The

seems to be a matter OF time and sea-

mine is published, and the postman
begins to leave straw-colored en-
velopes In the letter box daily. These
contain clippings from various maga-
zines and newspapers published in the
United States, England. Australia, Ire

is portrayed with great candor and
frankness the exact opinion of my fell
low craftsmen in regard to my last
