Uvuard* Iosh >)i the ihut llu- weather ut the present I huo is decidedly nut in favor of a Spring outfit, oblo Is tempted to wear Spring clothes just us a change. I'ulni lWueh and other Winter it-sort* have confirmed the aniari styles, aud iU a result we haw a bevy of interesting designs ft?r the uew wardrobe*. l<ong, tight wkirt# were aocoptod fairly well, but the.

It will bo rcmwwbered that that was the ui>* point the Amerieau woman disagreed with. The fact that a skirt could be tfhfl^and tight ut the same time and stifl ietaiu gra<*o was inconceivable to <>ui' rotaf* radical deaignerH. And though Head Design on Pane! we have a<-quieseed it must be admitted that the frock or suit with the tight nkirt must court the ankles to look its best ' iWiijg adopts at substitution the Amer ican designers created the draped nkirts to take the place of the long, extremely narrow nnd uncomfortable hobbies. The 'drapery is not limited to any particular place, such as the aides or back, but It may be "one-sided or looped up grace fully at the front or pulled recklessly tight across the front or back. Of course tailored model# do not sponsor the drap ery, and the eveninx gowns are guilty of capturing the majority of draped skirts. And besides, these evening gowns that have been kept so long under cover are now becoming real pirates and are cap turing.. #11 . the attractive features that are the newest ideas of the designers. IMce' for instance, appears as- sleeves and as bodices and everywhere from top to bottom on tbe evening gown. Black 1 ac&. white lace, nnd metal lace of gold and* all claim place on tlx- ultra smart gown. ? . "How thoroughly prehistoric, '^ exclaim ed the etrttrasfastic buyer when- a coy little manikin appeared on the dais with a waistcoat of shindig Jeather. And pre historic seems to me an excellent charac terization of these new fads of fashion. Made on the lines of the ordinary waist coat, and some with bigh collars, they? seem quite the right finishing-touch for tbe Spring suit that has aspirations to be called unusual. More demure nnd dainty are the rather R<iff and clean-cut ones of organdie. They tuck up in the tiniest of tucks .jat the front and fall stubborwly over the collar of tbe suit, because of the stiffness of the fabric. For a criwp day, the leather .wouJd prove delightful, but for the day whelh the breezes are warm the organdie would be far more acceptable. I "X combination of unusual interest is that of organdie and taffeta. The or prandic is_ oftentimes checked or striped and the taffeta is usually ?f a contrast ing color. This combination is quaint, -atid'one must take great care in the harmony of color or the entire effect is lost ' bo used extensively for nftemoorf- and evening dresses And some times fopSjery formal affairs. .
