Every Kind of Tailored Waist
A Woman Desires-$1 to 1915

It is rumored that Tailored Waists are going to be more popu-
lar than ever this Autumn. But there is one thing certain
they are always good style. 1t is always wise to have a supply
Of these Shirts on hand, as this is the one type Of waist that
never goes out of style. Sometimes there is a change in sleeves
or the width of cuffs-but then those are minor considerations.
Throughout this large assemblage of waists there is not a
new fashion point that is not included both in the details Of
making and in the materials.
In Colored Waists, stripes are absolutely he thing. Not
mere stripes, but the kind that one generally finds only in mems
shirtings of refined character. The Striped Cotton Crepe
Waists at So are particularly smart. Color Striped Madras
Waists, 81. 2 to 81.

squandered their patrimony OF
