IJITKST srOKTS CLOT1IKS. Silks ami Satins Appear to be Ureal 1 y Favored. Xe\\ York. February i:i.-=~Nothlng has Usui more talked of during the past seasons than 8|>yrts elothes, so much so that nowadays they have come to he Just as essentia) a part of the modern woman's wftrtlrobe aa her evening gown. In the syles ahowu at present for Southern wear, there is distinctly a strong accent on thla type of dress; for fashionable women at Southern resorts wear their sporta clothes from early morning until It la time to change to evening gowns. Aa a result of this rage, the variety to W found under the la|>el of s]>orta clothes is nothing short of amaziug. As a rule, bright coats or blouses are A Sports Frock Developed in the New Plain and Dotted Silks worn with white or light colored skirts. Included in the list of pay colors that are used. red is often found, which Is rather unusual, as this color has boon looked upon formerly as inoro appro priate for fall and winter than for j spring and summer. SiK?rts- clot lies of silks and satins up- i ! pear in greater numbers this season! than those of cottons. There arc, how- 1 ever, some novelties in cotton which promise to prove very popular. One of these is cotton garbs dine brightly strip ed and plaided in colors. Basket weaves which have the new striped and dotted designs also have a fair show 1 ing, and the heavy linens will undoubt edly be worn. The sketch shows one of the favorite models with the smart hip-length blouse. Stitched box pleats, starting from under a deep yoke and disap pearing beneath the pleated pockets, give the Norfolk effect which has al wiivn been considered a good style for outing wear. Separate coats of fuzzy white ma terial. somewhat like blankets, with stripes of manv colors around the edge, and also on the collar and cuffs, are among the latest offerings in sports at tire. The colored stripes are also car ried out in the same way in coats of oyster-.white tussur. Rumors of a new silhoutte have been causing a stir in fashionable cir cles. In fact, the rumors have been turned to reality, for the new barrel skirt has already boon seen in Paris and New York. The barrel skirt which produces this new sllhoutte, wide below 'the hips ami narrowing down toward the ankles, is a strong contrast to the straight -lino frocks inspired by the medieval fashions. Whether or not It will bo accepted is still a matter of doubt. The barrel skirts that have been seen so far appear in different forms and some are not unlike the "peg tops" which were fashionable some two or three years ago. It Is very likely that the barrel skirt, if it takes at all, will not at once replace the straight frocks, If may be Just a fad of the moment and It may be taken serlouslv by those who are tiring of the chemise dresses. Time only -111 tell, but in the meantime we need hardly have our peace of .mind disturbed about It. MVTRVftAT, TWA AT BLOOMSBURY. A musical tea will be given at Bloomsbnry the home of Mrs. A. I).
