WOMEN TO DRESS LIKE CHINESE. GORGEOUS COSTUMES OF THE MANDARIN FIND FAVOR. War in the Balkans also to Influence Spring Styles, According to New Fashion Authority. "Good Dressing," the new fashion magazine issued with the compliments of Meacham & Epps to the women of Fort Mdl and vicinity, in its second issue u der the head of "What New York Women Are Wearing," has this to ; ay about the new styles: "This will be a season of brilliant effects, the Bulgarian and Oriental colorings predominating; there are also wonderful effects in f'ompadour and .Jouy designs. The fancy for things Chine e in cut and material has invaded not only the realm of the elaborate tea and evening gown, but finds expression in fancy little cretonnes or chin'z printed coats to be worn with lingerie or linen dresses. They are an odd and quaint accessory to the Summer wardrobe, and with a hat and parasol/of the same material and design the ensemble of a pretty Summer girl is most fascinating. I'hese coatees are simple to make, require no trimming other than harness huckles or buttons; the usual lining is also omitted, the seams neatly bound with satin binding. All textures from the sheerest to the heaviest have been touched with the magic of the color wand." From this talk of fashion motives. "Good Dressing" gives a discussion of the current styles for Spring by Harrison Fisher?the famous artist and portrayer of American women. Mr Fisher selects three charming designs for Spring gowns, which are illustrated in full length and gives them as his idea of the clothes appropriate for the American woman of today. Mr. Fisher chooses as the ideally well-dressed woman that one who chooses her clothes?both style and materials?after a study of her own personality. Though he states it is difficult for most women to realize their defects and shortcomings. "Good Dressing" also contains a story of a woman who unwittingly discharged her own husband ?a story with a heart throb'and a tale of household economics that should carry a real message to every one that reads it. "Good Dressing" is a beautiful 32page magazine devoted to fashions generally, edited by the editors of The Ladies' Home Journal, and co-operative arrangement with 3,U00other merchants enables Meacham & Epps to distribute it to patrons without any cost to them. | Besides the featured articles, the | April number of "Good Dressing" | shows a brilliant variety of designs for new Spring dresses and gowns. These designs cover every type of garment that may be required for any occasion, and besides the illustrations, the material of which these garments should be made, as well as the manner in which they should be trimmed, is shown in detail. Young women will read with interest Nancy Norton's letter. Nancy Norton IB a yuuii^ woiimii uiieiuiuiK u iiew York boarding school, and she writes interestingly telling her friends at home what her New York experiences are. She tells of the New York girlB and their clothes, of the little trips and pleasures ?altogether in April "Good Dressing" it is a letter well worth reading. The personal service offered by Meacham & Epps in this new magazine will appeal to and be appreciated by the women of this vicinity and Meacham & Epps should be commended for undoubted progressiveness. "Good Dressing" will answer any question on: The Etiquette of Clothes, Home Dressmaking, Millinery, Children's Clothes, Needlework, or fashions generally, and the April number will be ready for distribution by Meacham & Epps after March 5th. j (Advertisement.)
