Those wfo remember last Summer S
cotton ratine as little more than a rep
lica of the ordinary bath towel will take
surprised notice of the development that
humble looking fabric has undergone.
Ratine and eponge are very much alike
in texture, except that the latter Is
softer in weave Both are shown in quite
new forms.
The simplest of these are the new
Banockburn ratines. which are imita-
tions of the Scotch cheviots and home
spuns Others look at fist glance much
like the fabrics We commonly call men s
suitings.' Every thread is cotton. but
the material has body and will wear
more satisfactorily than part wool ma
terials, as those have a discouraging
habit of "cockling'' under the influence
OF dampness.
Used in Tailored Suits.
These varieties of ratine and of eponge
are to be used in tailored suits, and are
OF the few new goods which do not have
borders. So far they are the most re-
cent comers in the field occupied last
year by the cotton ,corduroys. cotton
reps, and corded linens, for which one
may look in vain at the present open
ings.
Another suiting is called "zigzag''
weave, reminiscent of the old chevron
design. All of these suitings are char
acterized by a rough, almost woolly, sur
face. An especially interesting group
has a ribbed foundation with a boucke
surface. This particular fabric seems
to have been made only in the softer
