TVERY woman seeks dlstlnction In
r. dress, and is especially pleased
when she discovers a suit that
may justly lay claim to it, for suits
must possess considerable stability In
style. They are worn oftener and
longer than other kinds Of apparel,
and much is demanded Of them. They
are required to vary accepted modes
by ingenious differences, without 60
ing to any extremes; they must be
conservative in order to be refined,
they must be spirited enough to escape
being commonplace, and in most cases
a youthful flavor Is demanded Of them.
The task of choosing one that will full
fill all these obligations promises to be
easier than ii has been, for fall suits
are shown in greater variety than for
some seasons.
The launching of several distinctly
different silhouettes and their accept
ance gives one a choice in coats that
vary much in outline. In length they
range all the way from finger tip to
those that reach almost to the bottom
of the skirt. One may choose model
with a slim, close-ftting body and
long waist, having ruffled skirt set
on. Or the choice may fall upon the
Russian blouse or the box coat and

many household decorations that are
made of paper. There is an amazing
number of things with which the coun-
tenance of room may be so changed

many small permanent furnishings

is the inspiration for this pretty

to carry it out.

buds and asparagus ferns are twined
about the standard. Single roses on

almonds and candies, and place cards

the tax will apply during the current
year The committee, in reaching this
decision, cHncurs in the provisions Of
the tax bifl as passed by the house, and
repudiates the recommendation of the
administration. The argument for re-
tention of the tax is that the year has
so far advanced that the tax already
has been passed along to the ultimate
consumer, and that it's repeal at this
late date would be of no benefit to
the taxpayer.
