THE SEASONS NEW GOODS:
Some Of the Best Of the Fabrics That
Have Appeared.

Some OF tho Best OF the raoricS Iuat
Have Appeared.
There has never before been such an
array of really beautiful fabrics for
fall as now. The number Is legion,
each having its own special excellence.
BroadclOths are very much In evidence
In the finest qualities and colors. These
imported broadcloths have the vlvan-
tage of never changing color, while
pity it is to have to say tour Ameri-
can dyes seem not to be permanent.
These goods are soft in texture, and
most of them have a satin finish, but
there are certain kinds with dull
surface.
The new colors for these always de-
sirable goods are very handsome. They
consist Of caledonian green, copenha-
gen blue, copper, laurel, shrimp. light
ashen tan called blondine, pOmina, a
dull russell red, topaz and the purple
affected by the clergy. Black and
some shades of gray and blue are also
shown, and all are to be made IN tailor
style.
The tailor style allows more latitude
this year than before, for we now may
see. after the list of short and long
coats, tight jackets with fancy fronts
and, what Is really an innovation, gem
uine attempts at overskirts. Besides
these there are redingotes with regu-
lar coat backs and cutaway fronts
with we'll defined belted waist and
the waist made with considerable or
namentation. The jumper effect Is no.
ticeable in the sleeves, so that alto
gether this may be called a composite
coat. 1t Is particularly becoming to
slim figures Some Of these garments
have regular coat sleeves, but young
folks seem to prefer the short sleeve
as being more dressy.
Fancy braids as trimming for all
sorts Of garments are as much en-
ployed as ever, and indeed they are
filing what Is called "a long felt
want" The coat represented In the
illustration is of dark blue cloth, with
q vest arrangement Of white ribbed
velutina, fastened with rounded pearl
buttons all the way down. At the edge
Of the coat, up both fronts and around
the neck. Is very fetching arrange
ment of braid, the castle braid being
graduated, the narrOwest being at the
waist line and the wider at the bot
tom and around the neck. There Is no
collar. Between each point there Is q
stretch Of fine silk soutache, ending
under a small black silk button. This
is an easy and simple manner Of OBJ
tanning a good effect in trimming such
garment.
Kimono effects in the arrangement
Of shoulder pieces are much liked.
They give apparent breadth to the
shoulders. Rich and heavy lace motifs
and bands are frequently set upon the
garments Of rich broadcloth to en-
nance the braids and other trimming.
Among the best Of the imported
dress and suit materials are the new
black goods. There Is an Aberdeen
suiting in fine stripes, the wide stripe
being Of solid black and the narrow
one openworked enough to give it
very light effect, although 1t is really
closely woven and waterproOfed. This
is half silk and half fine wool and Is
very beautiful and refined.
There are many striped designs, all
Of them desirable. The material Is
wide. The thin striped ones, such as I
have just mentioned, come under the
head Of voiles. The new resilda silk
carita Is in solid weave with rather
thick cord. 1t is resilient in its gloss
and has the richness Of Irish poplin
without its unfortunate shrinking prop
erty. Another of the resildas is called
canton to distinguish 1t, and this is
rather looser in weave and finer In
thread, but both are rich and hand
come. These can be used in home or
, outdoor suits.
In wool suitings there are many de-
signs, the Clifton being one Of the
most desirable. This is shown In many
shades and mixtures Of dull colors,
