well be the goal of any woman's am
bition. because such a combination has
been sometimes difficult to find and

But the difficulties are growing less.
One result of the vogue for fancier
suits which held through last year.
may be seen in the many attractive
one-piece frocks of wool. tricolette or
silk, unusual in design, that have been
presented this season. as rivals of the
street suit. They are feminine-minded
affairs having no trace of mannlsh Sc

ness and destined to deserved sue
cess. The same substantial goods are
used for them as for making suits.
Two of these new departures chai-
ienge attention in the picture at the
head of this article. Just glance at
them leaves an inquiry floating through
the mnd-as to how one gets into
them. They appear to fasten by
devious and underhanded ways and
are sometimes camouflaged with many
buttons that mean nothing so far as
usefulness is concerned. AT the right

a dress of net appears at the left OF
the picture having bands of lace edg-
ing used as an insertion. The full
skirt has three hands of lace about
1t with frill at the bottom of each
one. and the lace is put in with the
scnlloped edge uppernost. The blouse
bodice has n square neck outlined with
the lace. elbow sleeves finished with
lace and frill and small vestee.
In the Organdie the skirt is banded
with tucks in groups of three. The
bottom Is finished with a narrow frill
on each side of the hem, and the skirt
Joins the waist with an outstanding
fril about the waistllne. Where the

sleeves has a "V" shaped neck pro-
vided with bretelles of the cloth. There
is chemisette of darker shade
and wide girdle of it that joins the
bodice and skirt. The girdle has
slashes cut in 1t, with narrow belt
drawn through them fastening at the
front with an ornamental clasp. The
skirt is fastened to the wide girdle at

buttons are set. 1t is corded at the

Counsel for Citizens Union AS
sails 81, 10000 Contract for
Preliminary Work.
BLOW TO HOUSING PLANS
Estimate Board Accepts Only
Bid Despite La Guardia and
y Curran's Protests.

reurh plumbing OF tho new court house
for New York county was awarded yes
t.rd.y by the Board OF Estimate TO
Rodgers & Haggerty, the only bidders, at
u,la0,5OO, tho Republican members vot-
ing against the award and declaring the
figure exorbitant.
r. II. La Guardia, President of the
Vaard Of Aldermen, declared that not
anly will the work under that bid mean
the waste of a large amount OF public
money but that the details OF the speei-
acations had been 30 drawn that any
number Of reputable firms had been pre-
vented from bidding.
Henry II. Curran. President Of the
Borough Of Manhattan, voted negatively
On the same grounds, and added that the
nrssent administration Is merely going
nu In ito insensate ambition to put up q
monument to It's efficiency" '"...
IA Guardla amended that sentiment
to the following effect:
. II do not agre with my friend Curran
In calling this n monument. 1 should
Oafl II grave. II has no roof, and
hence no value as building When
they get the plumbing in they could use
that TO sprinkle the flowers around the

troller goes out Of office next fall we
erect a tablet inscribed! Sacred to the
memory OF a short but misspest public
life,'"
Joseph A Guider, Commissioner OF
Public Works Of Brooklyn, representing
tho Borough President, took Curran to
task. This is not a matter Of erecting
q monument to this administration" he
said, but OF correcting a monumental
blunder OF another administration. Now,
sver in Brooklyn we are discouraging
