The same principle holds good for tweeds. The tweed tarn Is evident In all those places where three distinct women are pointed out.as being some one of prominence. But the tweed hat is a risky tiling unless it is made out of cloth off the same bolt as your suit or frock and it Is not always possible to luntch the tweed of a dress to a hat In the next department.

Those stores which concern them selves with reducing nil women to the proper silhouette for the new gowns recommend corset and brassiere com binations for the older woman, brief girdles that reach the natural waist line for the young girl.

The newest corsets are modeled to the form from the beginning .and all the niolding is done by artful little Insets of woven elastic.

The girdles which debutantes are ordering are usually considerably high er at the front than the sides and are designed to give the flat effect across the tummy demanded by long, trailing gowns. One of these is of silk tricot with triangular insets of pink satin.

For plumper young women there is an oil- elastic step-in girdle with n plaited crepe flounce about the bottom und n silk chemise strap which allows y«m to run around with no more than two garments under your street dress. Girdles for the older woman are more formidable affairs, buf they are still not of the order that requires you to loosen your stays In moments of negligee.
