BUYING THE NEW SUIT

The most difficult dress to manage
economically Is probably the tailored
suit. OF course the shops are always
flooded with cheap suits, but these
are likely To prove a snare and a pit
fall, unless you are prepared TO rec
ognIze quality In material. and good
workmanship when you see IT,
What most women want st the pres
ent Is a suit that can be worn at least
two years. II Is considered economical
to distribute your purchases 30 that
suit, furs and coat do not all come
out OF one years salary. And In
general. the highest-priced suit. II
simple In design. will wear longer.
for II Is apt to be made Of better
grade material.

what style OF suit she should get.
II you are inclined to be too tall. or
lanky. you will do well to avoid the
severe long lines. and choose rather
something on the style Of the short
box coat. On the other hand, II you
are DESTROYS OF appearing taller and
slenderer than you really are. the long
coat will give you just the height and

Choice Of material for the new suit

Its shape. and not wear shiny. nor spot
easily when exposed to the street dust
and all sorts OF weather. Soft dark
hues are more practical for constant
use than either pale or brilliant coiors'
The good shopper will instinctiyely
strike happy medium between the

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
as IT FOR YOURSELF"

"For yourself7" piped the smart
young salesperson In the shop where
l had strolled to look at hats.
For whom else would I be shopping
for a hat on a hot summer afternoon
wondered.
But as l watched q number Of wom-
en- buying hats--a short. fat woman
going out with a low spreading hat
that made her look shorter and fatter
than ever; woman of the tall, bean
pole type elevated still nearer the
clouds by a high plume-crested crown
II decided that the question hadnt
been so irrelevant after all. How often
does a woman buy hat that Is really
designed for herselff
If your face Is full and round. do not
choose small, brimless hat. or one
with a turncd-up brim. II will only
change the adjectives full and round
to soft and fat" What your face
needs Is a general lengthening and re-
ducing effect. and this may be accom-
plished by medium-brimmed hats, by
sailors, and by having the brims mar.
rover at the sides than ut the front.
A thin face that looks small and
peaked under large hat. may play
up all its fullness and delicacy Of
curves under small one.
The snubbiest nose can be coaxed to
be quiescent under large or medium
sized hat, while brimless hat or one
that turns up sharply In front would
only accentuate the sauciness.
For the woman with sharp. angular
features, "softncss" Is the keyword
Her problem Is the same rs the thin
faced woman's. only that she must be
careful to avoid any lines that accen-
tuate the angles Of nose. chin. cheek.
bone or throat. Still sailors only mul.
tply her woes. and yet how she usu-
ally does fancy" them!
Youthful fuces may fearlessly wear
the strnight brimless hat or the turned
up brims which throw the complexion
In high relief. But the woman with
lines. or the younger woman with
worried. worn features should wear a
hat that has loose. drapy effects. and
brIm enough 10 shadow the lines.
II you are of the medium-type Of
face with regular features. you are
often told that you can wear any
thing" This Is never entirely true.
There are certain lines and materials
that will bring out your gooc points
better than others do. SO. For Your
SELF Is a pretty good rule to go by.
h seems to me. when shopping for
q hat"
