IS ALWAYS SMART

Strictly Tailored Suit to Be Staple
Fall Model.
Coat VIII Be About Thirty-six inches
in Length and the Skirt About
TWO Yards Wide.

Here is II modish little early fall
"tailleur," made of mems wear blue
serge, with collar of black velvet and
braid and button trimming. This suit
might also be attractively developed in
Oxford gray suiting, with black braid
and button trimming.
There is much speculation as to the
suit that will be preferred this fall and
winter. 1t seems safe to predict that
strictly tailored models featuring a
coat approximately SO inches in length
and with skirts about two yards wide
will be regarded as staples. This kind
of suit is always smart, easily kept in
shape and gives service that can never
be hoped for from one of the dressy
models.
In addition to this argument, the
government has indicated to manufac-
turers that they will do we'll to use
fabrics sparingly, and the ultra-long
fashion notes were first given to the
public will hardly have a general
vogue.
The suit here shown is youthful
model, buttoning smartly in double
breasted fashion, and with both coat
and skirt equipped with pockets.
The question of how strongly fall
suits will continue to show the military
influence is still unsettled. Some of
the very early models show the mill
tary influence in the use Of khaki-eOl-
ored worsted, and In many military
pockets, epaulet shoulder arrange
ments, etc., but it is not likely that
suits for late fall and winter wear will
be very strongly influenced by the pres
ent vogue.
The Russian blouse type of suit and
a modified sdirectoire are both shown in
fall and winter models; but the strict

WoRKBAG is EASILY MADE
One Having Many Advantages Can Be
Constructed With Cardboard Box
as Foundation.

The workbag here described has
many advantages; it has firm base,
it will close up so that no dust can
enter and soil the contents, and it will
hold quite q lot of necessary imple-
ments for making or mending.
A round cardboard box will be need
ed-one with a diameter Of s or 8
inches is nice useful size-also some

First of all, cut circle of sateen the
same size as the base of the box.
Neatly paste this on the inside Of it,
then cut a long strip about % inches
to paste round the sides of the box;
the depth of the box should be about
37a inches.
Now cut another strip of sateen
about 80 inches long and s broad. At
the top of this strip run hem and a
heading, so that cord can be run
through, and when drawn it will close
the bag.
The bottom end of the strip need not
be hemmed, but neatly paste it to the
outside of the box, fulling it little
all the way along, and seam it up the
side.
This pasting on is all hidden by a
strip Of figured tapestry, silk or linen
just whatever may be to hand.

FLAMINGo RED is RETAINED
Suits Of Pongee in This Hue, With
White Chiffon Blouses, Are Worn
for Afternoon.

The buyers who have returned from
Paris with wholesale assortments Of
early autumn models say that the
house Of Callot is clinging to the color
known as fiammant and the fabric
known as pongee.
We have not mad as much Of this
flamingo red, which is the English for
flammant, as one would expect, consid-
erfng that Its sponsors were the three
Callot sisters. Possibly the autumn
will bring it out in definite way, says
a writer on fashions.
The Chinese silks, particularly that
weave of pongee which is not worn by
the coolies, but by the people of caste
In China, has been thrown into the
French market as one Of its dominant
fabrics. Suits Of it in famingo red
are worn in the afternoon with white
chiffon blouses and great black or
white satin hats. The addition OF the
black hat tones down the rose color
TO beautiful thing.
In this country we wear natural pom
gee more than the dyed kind. 1t is not
a becoming color to any face, and,
therefore, it must be kept away from
the neck and chin by collar and
blouse.
The new suits that are made Of it
are extraordinarily good, because our
close touch with the Orient in the way
Of commerce has brought to us the
kind of pongee that is turned into adj
nlirabIe tailored lines and has not the
deep, ugly coloring of the cheap pom
roe which once prevailed.

Very Simple Type.

Besides the strictly tailored suits,
there is a fair proportion Of the more
dressy ones, though some Of the latter
are intended mainly for window dis
plays and for openings, says the Dry
Goods Economist.
The coats of the tailored suits are
mostly long, extending to a point

HELL MORGAN'S GIRL"
AT AMERICAN TUESDAY

The San Francisco earthquake and
fire has been translated to the screen
as the climaxing incident of a series
of sensational events TO be set forth
at the American theatre on Tuesday
evening, June 10, when Hell Nor
gan's Girl" will be the attraction. In
this stirring melodrama beautiful and
talented Dorothy Phillips will play
the leading role. supported by Wil-
liam Stowell as the hero and Lon
CLANCY as the villain in the piece.
The days before the quake" were
famous old times in San Francisco,
and present residents declare that
their like will never return. A prod
uct of those times were the dance
halls and saloons that now blossom
under the glorified title of cafe" -
but ii was no cafe that Hell" Nor
gan conducted. In Sailors Rest" the
daughter of Hell" Morgan reigned
the queen, and because of this ve.y
fact this photoplay has been made
strong and vigorous, refiecting the
trouble that love and higher ideals
encountered in entering the queens
domain.
