MISS MURPHY'S
 MILLINERY OPENING

There is greater variety of Spring styles in trimmed millinery this sea- son than ever before and the lady looking for an Easter hat will have a perplexing problem to solve in the se- lection of her headwear. Those ladies who want something distinctive a creation embracing individuality, char acter. style and quality should not forget to call upon Miss Etta G. Mur- phy, S49 East Main street between Bar mum and East Washington avenue, who announces a spring showing in the Farmer to take place Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week.
 Miss Murphy is a designer of unus- ual ability, and every creation which leaves her shop, has particularly finished appearance, combining perfect harmony in coloring, and eXclusiveness in designing.
 You will also find in her parlors. a variety of hats both trimmed and un- trimmed, second to none in the city of Bridgeport. The styles run from the Parisian extremes, to the modified American modes-all popular, attrac- tive, and bound to suit the tastes and fads of women of all ideas regarding this important item of women's wear.
 A call places you under no obliga- ton and will be greatly appreciated by Miss Murphy who invites all read CTS of the paper to her parlors during this opening.

SPRINGS INNOVATIONS

Every evidence that spring is here is manifest by the change in front win dow displays in the stores along Main street, and especially is this true in those stores who make a speciality of women's wear. New style dresses suits. cloaks and the latest creations in trimmed hats attract general at tention.
 Not many years ago Springs arrival was heralded by the appearance of the Robin, the Organ Grinder, Or the lawn mower but today, almost before the snow is off the hills. the close proxi- mity of spring is announced by the showing of advanced styles in ladies wearables.
 Thus it would seem that the com mercial life in America is fast super seeding every poetic sentiment of our fathers, but, after all, isn't there much poetry, beauty, grace in good clothes?
 The promoters of the Harem skirt seem to be doomed to disappointment. In New York three heroines who don- ned this latest freak of Parisian fash ion, were hooted off the streets, while in a western city policeman felt ob- although he could bring no charge against her. His only justification was in his statement, that he wanted to get her off the street,
 Extreme styles, that is styles mod elled after the original Partisan pro- auctions, do not become popular in this country, and the leading Amer ican tailors are learning to so modify as to more easily gain public favor. Last season the sheaf skirt was a disas strous failure. Although New York firms imported thousands of suits at the beginning of the season these gar- ments had to be filled in" with lace and various materials before they could find ready sale and then only at a great price reduction.

A REVIEW OF THE
 SPRING FASHIONS

With the arrival of spring, the all- important subject that occupies the attention of most women is new clothes. April with it's showers and sunshine, it's bursting buds and bright green verdure and it's return of the birds to their old haunts, may be one of the months most favored by the poets, but most of us, in the hurry of spring shopping. have little time to muse on the beauties of nature while the winter outfit is getting shabby and the shop windows are overflowing with beautiful materials.
 There are distracting new silks smart woolens for tailor frocks, de- lightful cottons and linens that make one dream of the good old summertime and to crown all, the most fascinating flower-trimmed creations in millinery begin to be seen on the head of every feminine passer-by.
 A certain conservative picturesque ness is the keynote of many of the most effective styles. The great French fashion designers have taken their inspiration from the early days of the French Revolution, and the lit tie basques or short tunics. the fichus the broad collars and other features of simple character have been borrow ed freely from that period and fur nish many ideas for the new spring costumes and suits.
 The fashionable figure is still s1end CT with small hips and a flat back The new skirts are not quite as mar row as they were They hang straight with but slight flare at the feet. Most of them are gored or circular pleats being used very little. Tailored suits and street dresses all have skirts, cut in walking lengths. Only very l, 1 frO1 11yc 1ir,rr rroyz zyyNo are made with trains, and when there is a train it is usually short and rath- CT narrow.
 The peasant waist with kimono sleeves retains it's vogue and is seen even in lingerie frocks. but the fancy for this sleeve cut in one with the blouse by no means precludes the use of the regulation two-p.ece fitting sleeve set into the armhole. In costumes and in separate waists the sleeves are almost without exception short elbow and three-quarter lengths.
 The sleeve cut in two pieces, if fancy at all, is often brought into a band. either just below the turn of the el- bow or at the wrist. In plain tailored suits the full-length sleeve is used, while in very dressy tailored suits the sleeve is often in three-quarter length.
 A great deal of striped material is seen. And combinations of black and white are considered exceedingly smart, but costumes of this sort are, as a rule. enlivened by touches of col or in the trimmings. Coral is used more successfully for this purpose and so is royal blue and very brilliant shade of emerald green.-McCalls Magazine.
