average woman has gradually developed a
conviction that it is the early bird that
gets the most satisfaction out of the spring
tailored suit.
1t is such solid comfort to have a trig,
fresh. lightweight suit in readiness when
the first warm days arrive. Winter clothes
and furs become all of a sudden burden
some, loathly things. One signs for spring
raiment and regrets that one did not order
a spring suit weeks before.
Then when the suit does at last conn
home from the tailor's summer is so close
at hand that linens and tussors begin to
seem more interesting than woolens, and
unless one is of the lucky clan who spend
long summer in cool lands, the suit of
serge or homespun or tweed is likely to
get little wear before fall.
The really canny thing to do is to order
ones tailor suit as soon as the New Year
and the demands of southwark bound folk
bring out the new stuffs and a few ten
tative spring models. If course, one can
not know then just what the last word OF
spring fashion will be, but one doesn't
need such Information for the tailored SUIT
as one does for frocks and more elaborate
costumes. The tailors are always able to
make a fair guess at what conservative,
severe modes for the spring trotting suit
will demand, and, after all, the more Sc

always that its cut is impeccable and its
material and color modish.
There is another item in this early order
problem which is worthy of consideration

to bridge over the gap between winter
making and the spring rush, is willing to
make substantial concessions in price upon
upon orders placed in January or early in
February.
So order your tailored suit early, madam,
but give earnest consideration to your needs
before you order II. II you expect to wear

means pass the rough and somewhat heavy
woolens by, even though statesmen assure
you that they are to be the only wear and
insist upon having a lightweight, fine twill
serge or similar material. These materials
are always worn in midsummer, even in
a rough cloth season. and in hot weather
one finds them less oppressive ana trying
than the wooller weaves, even when the
latter are loose woven and light.
If, however, spring wear is the chief con
sideration or a cool climate is to make
homespun and tweed endurable, a slightly
rough material is probably the wise choice
this season. The early showing of sultlngi
