FIND PLACE
IN FAVOR

While all the hue and cry has
been going on about spring suits
Of every description, a lot of us
have been overlooking that very
good bet in fashions - the red
ingote ensemble. Yet is has a def
mite place in almost every ward
robe.
The redingotes which are being
featured around town offer a
pleasant balance of print with
yool. With a nice, slimming red
ingote o. lightweight wool reveal
iug only refreshing glimpses of
the print of the dress from the
fluffy. high neckline down the
center front of the hemline, where
the skirt usually bursts into pleats.
Some OF these ensembles are def
intely dressy and suitable only for
the lighter moments of the day,
because Of the brightness of their
colors. Others, with their redingotes
of navy or black to sober down the
general effect. make these ever-so-
useful tailored -dresSy combinations
that look unpretentious enough for
morning of shopping and festive
enough for an afternoon at brldge'

NEW CULOTTE
FASHIONABLE
FOR SPORTS

The culOtte is half-sister to slacks
and whether it is seen on the beach
or tennis court, the street car or in
the garden. there is nothing smart
er for spOrtSwear this season.
Possibly you don't know anything
about the culotte. 1t is-or rather,
they are. related in the dim past
somewhere to your grandmother's
indies That is. of course, they're
the same length
The present day version of the
culotte IS quite the incest feminine
form Of trousers yet made. Cut in
a circular fashion. one model in
dusky pink sharkskin, may be worn
either with a bandanna top or a
shirtmaker shirt to match.
OF especial interest is a combin-
alton culOtte. To all appearances
this culotte is a slim white sport
skirt. IN actuality it is a pair of
cleyerly tailored flannel culottes.
This is Worn with a nautical blue
Jacket and makes a stunning out
fit for beach club or yachting wear.
The culOtte makes the figure ap-
pear simmer! Bravo-for those
who must or should-diet!
Turquoise. dusty pink. natural
and white are the favorite shades
in peasant linen and crash. flannel

SG6IIl W nave IIlc DcSG vi IL III
The best collection OF flannelS,
dozens of tweeds and tweed mix
dine and shetland in many sea-
son will have them at their wits
end trying to make a selection.
Cashmere Tops
Cashmere is tops for that fine
quality look, since it is one of
the sheerest of woods. In zephyr
weight and summer weight. it
rests lightly on any shoulders.
Tweeds are more daring and diff
ferent; the number Of WeaVeS al
most equals all the possible COM
binations in bridge hands. If
there's a material you can't dag
nose, just set it down as tweed.
Herringbone tweed, for instance,
comes in fine and loose weaVeS
and is woven of tightly twisted
yarns. Knotty tweed usually is the
most cclorful for a background of
eggshell can have knots of every
hue of the spectrum. Glenarkid
Scotch plaid gives a rich blending
of darker shades, such as maroon
and brown.
Shetland Popular
Shetland will be popular with
busy women and travellers. The
motoring trip or a full day sitting
at a desk respond more favorably
to eight hours en- hanger than
to a hot iron.
.GabardineS and Worsteds will do
duty of another material, as will
linen and tweed mixtures. One
combination is a green gabardine
skirt with medium blue lambs
wool and cashmere jacket OF
course, skirts and Jackets can con-
traSt in color and still be Of the
same material. And many of them
will.
A checkered tweed coat may
have a white tweed skirt or a
white flannel one. A hounds tooth
design coat takes very we'll to &
brown or tan skirt.
Shirt Problem Simple
The time milady spends choos-
ing her suit material she'll make
up for at the shirt counters. Five
minutes will see the shirt proc
lem settled, because there's only
one rule-"just like mans.
Some are even simpler. having no
box pleat nor seam at the front.
Materials are pure silks and
die silks, finest hand-woven hand
kerchief linen and satin, the lat
ter being particularly suitable for
the pelated bosom shirts. Some
of the shirts will have studs or
pearl buttons of contrasting
shades with them, and for others,
studs will have to be bought sep
arately.

Western Business
In Big Increase

Fal western business during Jan
uary, 1886, based on the Bank of
America index, stood at 744, which
is 14.6 per cent greater than the
index level for January, 1885. The
gain over January, 1883, was 255
per cent.
That there is a definite and
marked improvement in general
business conditions throughout the
far west is indicated by the follow
ing high lights from this business
review, which was off the press &C.
day:
The total value Of building per-
mits issued by so cities in the eight
far western states during January,
1886, was 62.8 per cent greater than
the same month last year, and ITO
per cent greater than in January,
1884.

Many Neev Ideas to
Mark Mems Wear
BY CAPT. ANTHONY

I can't remember the time when
men were more receptive to new
styles than they are today! AT one
time new styles were frowned
upon. Today men can't get enough
of the new things. From Hollywood
from London, from the Alps, from
Scotland come new ideas in furn-
ishings and almost , as soon as
they're introduced they find wide
acceptance here.
Without more ado, I'd like to say
a few things about the new shirts.
Collar, color and patterns, present
a Kaleidoscope broadside. Tartan
plaids, checks, glen plaids and small
district checks galorel Yellows, reds,
blues, browns in colorful combina-
tions that defy description. Dark
tones, much darker than those of
last season are being shown in the
better mans shops. Blacks, navy
blues and oX-blood shades are only
a few of what you'll see being
worn.
Fabrics assume greater import
ance than ever. OXfords, poplins,
broadcloths and madraSes are the
fabrics that you probably are most
familiar with. But these aren't all
that are being shown this spring.
The sports influence is prominent
and you'll choose your spring shirts
from cotton and wool flannelS,
from brushed cottons, woven and
trick oxfords, crashes, crepeS and
twills. So you can see that there's
plenty of variety.
But more important than the
fabrics are the collar styles. Wide
spreads and widespread button
downs are great favorites with
men Of all ages. The tableSs tab, a
style that made great strides last
season, has been accepted as one
of the highstyle collars.
No review of shirts, however
brief, would be complete without
some mention of the sports shirts
Although it is a little early to make
any definite predictions, there is
ilIJlC QOhOI JlldO SpOl oli4l 70 " AZ
see a wider acceptance than ever
There are shirred, pleated, tucked
and norfolk backs with and with
out belts. The double breasted
pullover shirt is unique and will
be worn by men who want some
thing different. Mesh and jersey
fabrics, twills, flannels, cottons
wools and silks, in brightly colored
stripes, checks and solid tones.
Neckware patterns are getting
larger and darker. If any one
theme stands out it's the paisley
Entire paisleys, and in some cases
portions of paisley patterns appear
Madder shades, soft reds and greens
are one of the outstanding color
combinations. White, in different
combinat tions, is prominent. Woods
and other rough fabrics continue
to gain popularity. After watch
ing the trend closely 1 feel sure
that bow ties are in for very
successful season.
One of the style notes to be
watched in sweaters is the return
! of the leather button.
