Tailorn1adles

The output in tailormades consists prin-
cipally of Scotch fabrics, broadcloths,
Skibo and domestic serges. The new Code
skirt Is again In favor and shown in some
very becoming styles. In the coats, piping
is shown on most OF the tailormade,
though not too noticeable. Perhaps bias
folds form the most OF the decorations,
and these are usually edged with narrow
braid not over one-eighth OF an inch wide
But the braid is frequently looped and
fashioned in artistic designs.
