New York. Feb. 3.-Farseeing women
to-day plan their werdrobes far ahead
Of time, and though It may sound strange
with the winter only begun as you may
say, yet this is the time to secure the
most exclusive and beautiful designs for
the spring or summer dress Indeed, it
has become customary for women to do
this and styles and fabrics are in no
guessing stage thinks to what is called
'the southern trade"-the design and
materials put on the market for those
South during the winter months and thus
set the styles for the earlier season.
It sounds almost trite to say the nov
cotton goods are pretty; but moro and
more are the designers and manufac-
turers paying heed to cotton goods, for
such is our climate that they are four
months out Of the year. more acceptable
than any other material
First come the chambrays from the
heavier grades to those Of a muslin-like
weight. Noticeable among these are
those having tape strings quarter
Of an inch wide; many have solid colored
grounds with white stripes others have
embroidered dots thrown over alternate
stripes of blue and black, blue and white.
or green and white. Mcrcerized stripes
are shown in all sorts OF varieties, in
which dots are popular. also swiveled
figures OF zigzag stripes; sclf-coored
invisible checks are shown in which are
run nnc hair-line stripes In black.
Especial attention has been given to
the "mercerized' fabrics. which are al
most as much sought for as silks and
are certainly as pretty and more Service
able than some OF the new. softer silks
For the children or women's morning
or business dress. nothing comes in
handler or is more useful than tho new
Eipshams. They have good body,
lsunder well, and arc to be found in all
shades from a very light tone to one
that Is decidedly dark. Mention should
bt made Of the tartan plaids in this ma
terial which are 90 well liked for chill
dren's dresses. and many odd plaids and
checks are shown which will be made
up into suits and shirt waists for wo-
men; they will be plain in cut and finish
and completed with white collars and
ties and turnover cuffs. For wear with
freshencd-up gown, in the heavier
weight they are particularly appropriate
and bright for the carly spring
On q stormy day do not make the mis-
take Of wearing ANY old thing" but have
one Of these bright Bingham waists and
clean white accessories and you will be
a pleasing object to your employer or
whoever your lot may be cast with dur
ing that day.
