FADS FOR WOMEN.

The new sweaters for women's wear
are smart and come in such a variety
Of colorings and designs that every one
will surely be suited. The latest model
is a seamless sweater, knitted with An
dalusian wool and shaped to the figure In

These garments are seen in all lengths

sweater reaching the hem Of the dress

those trimmed with bands in contrasting
coors. The sleeves are coat shaped.

tons are pure white. regardless OF the
color of the sweater.
Made cording is much used as a trim
ming for coats and gowns this year. The
cord Is quite thick, and is usually applied
in a ZigZag design or for connecting the
edges of slashed seams.
A novel use for this cording was seen
recently on a long coat Of dull cadet blue
broadcloth. The coat closed little to the
left side, and the cording COT the cloth)
was arranged in a slanting zigzag down
the front edge, the loops coming beyond
the edge. the same serving as buttonholes
corresponding with large enamel buttons
that were sewed on the left edge.

Irish insertion, SO much the better, for

A last years directory gown may be

the high waist line with longwaisted
Moyenne bodice, and the illustration OF
a Moyenne gown gives us a suggestion
along this line. This costume shows
fitted cuirass of tucked satin over

tucked bodice is q lace yoke. showing
