A favorite combination is a blue and white checked skirt with a blue Jacket, or a black and white striped skirt with a black or white Jacket. The materials for the suits will be mostly narrow and wide wale Bedford cords, light weight serges, a new etamlnc which Is similar In weave to a Bengallnc. novelty worsteds, epongo and f'omc of the mannish suitings. Silk suits will be much favored. The fancy suits will have a fair -amount of braids In their construction. Duckies and buttons are scon on all the suits. For a long time buttons wore neglected, but now no suit is complete without buttons as a trimming. A pretty touch Is given a' suit by the various kinds of odd but tonholes "used; some are bound In direct contrast to the color of the button. In length the suit coats vary from twenty-four to twenty-seven Inches, or approximately a wrist length for the average figure. ?ome retain the cutaway effect of this winter: others are cut around the bottom with a decided dip In the back, while again other models arc straight across i he back and longer at the side scams, practically all arc loose titling with fancy collars, and no separate revers. The coats are cut in sections in the back with the raised waistline, and it slight degree of fullness Is drawn In to the belt. Belts of leather or of the same material are seen on a number of suns. A dark blue silk suit has a white suede bolt, which gives a stunning effect to the costume. . , . The latest achievements In suits and dresses show many adoptions of the Rus sian blouse. This spring the blouses will open in the front instead of on the side, and low collars will bo substituted for the high ones. Tho sleeves are still mannish In effect with little fullness except on the fancy suits which have the wide llowing sleeve, or a low sot-In sleeve with a can eftect. A novel tailor-made model is of blue grey suiting. The cutaway coat has a belt which extends to the seams at either side of the front and back. Quito a large collar extends to the shoulder and has three buttonholes 'at cither side of the front and three at the center of the back, tho Jacket Is buttoned down the front with three buttons. There Is also a new draped sleeve that promises to be very popular In somo of the new models Tho plain skirt is lapped at the front and finished at tho bottom with a row of buttons. In the back tho skirt Is laid In pleats. The three-quarter length coats aro seen a great deal. Those coats have rounded fronts with some of the backs cut In sections like tho suits, with a Uttlo full ness drawn in at the waist Broad belts Mon ( The exclusive sjffers 'A R the greatest possibilities m the jS M-?' m Ju selection of a really desirable M W$ SS 9 flT For in the exclusive shop all Illll Ha 13 H energies are concentrated on the " . , ' ralMA?
