The fact that large distribution c.

coming season is resulting in the
presentation of host Of new styles,
according to the Dry Goods Econo-
mist. Deep shoulder-pointed numbers
continue in the lead. Cream batiste
of the sheerest quality beautifully
embroidered, with fine hemstitching
and dainty headings and laces, are
used in the development Of the fore
most models. Cream batiste is also
used in some Of the handsomest fiat
collars with jabots. The collar por-
tions follow largely the deep shoul-
der point idea and the jabots are Of
conservative size and style. Flat
pleated jabots are especially liked.
Net, figured and dotted crepes. plain
and fancy voiles and crepe de chine
are among the other prominent mate
rials employed.

TAKE UP THREE-PlECE SUITS
In the Same Material or in Combina'
ton Of TWO Silks They Are
Equally Popular.

According to statement made by
the Dry Goods Economist, the vogue
for garments of the dressier type is
nc doubt responsible for the interest
recently shown in three-piece suits.
Up 10 the present time the majority
of these three.piece suits nave been
made up in silks or high-class novelty
worsteds
Silks have been particularly good
and many smart three-piece suits OF
noire, faille, poplin. charmeuse and
brocade are now being shown. as well
as a combination of two silks, such
as MORE and faille, brocade and faille.
ETC.
Although some three-piece suits
have been brought out to retail at
moderate price, very little attention
has been given to cheaper grades
This is because houses that are able
70 turn out a good popular-priced
tailored suit seldom have an or
ganization that is capable of making
an equally attractive dress and vice
versa.
