of the costume.
This nrifctiry frock is of sand
colored mohair and worsted
fabric and the un4*rskirt is of
goldenrod satin. The front of
the bodice it trimmed with
braid frogs and eagle brass but-
tons—the new fad of the mili-
tary maid—and a belt of black
leather adds the final regimental
touch.

KIIAKI-KOOL THE SILK SEN-
SATION OF THE SEASON
Much credit is due to the American
mak'-rs wiio hav< brought out this re-
ruarkable nrw mlk f-.r aummer wear.
1 he various khaki kool weaves resem-
ble hari'horne nhantungs and rajahs, but
there is a novelty in their texture and a
smartness in their colorings that have
made them instantly popular for dis-
tinguished tailored costumcs for sum-
mer traveling and country club wear.
One of the big shops just off Fifth
Avenue this month has had a whole
window devoted to these stunning
khaki-kool silks and to gdbd looking,
tailored frocks and suits made of them.
Theie silks come in the favored sand
and putty tones, in a rich dreadnaught
gray and in pearl white—a particularly
modish shade this spring. ^
Combinations of silk in self color are
also very much favored, and frocks
showing these combinations are liked by
women who prefer rich, plain colored
.fabrics to flowered or patterned effects,
i he use of one silk with another, even
when the shades match identically, pro-
duces an effect of contrast; as for in-
stance when bands of faille classique
silk trim a full skirt of pussy willow
taffeta, or a ruffled skirt of pbssy wil-
low is accompanied by a bodice of
crinkled crepe with pussy willow bands
and motifs.
AIRY SLEEVES FOR COOLNESS
Chiffon and net sleeves will be worn
with silk bodices—but the chiffon or net
is usually doubled before cutting out
the sleeve and the guimpe to which
it is attached, for a decollete effect
is not part of Fashion's design now.
The ovcrbodice of silk is never
sewed fast to the guimpe, but is quite
separate from it, though a few artfully
placed snap-fasteners serve to hold the
two garments together in correct lines.
Sometimes the silk overbodice is in the
form of s bolero, falling over the belt.
Skirts are frankly gathered to the belt,
though the gathers are usually poshed
to the gides where most of the fullness
of the skirt comes. All skirts measure
three yards around at least and the skirt
escapes the ground from four to eight
inches according to the maturity of its
wearer and the slenderness of her
figure, and below rt her dainty buttoned
boots or high heeled shippers are coquet-
tishly revealed.
FLOWERED ORGANDIES
AGAIN I
Every woman is pleased to see the
lovely flowered organdies back again.
Dotted swisses arc another charming,
old fashioned fabric revived this year.
Ecru or sand-colored batistes «re ex-
cessively fashionable, tnd with these are
combined sand-colored nets and shadow
laces. Stockings of natural colored !
sdk are the fad with frocks in these I
sand, cr natural tones.

HE DRY GOODS DEPARTMENT located on the main floor has become the fashionable headquarters in the
city. II is here where (.articular shoppers line the aisles and select out of the great stocks such merchandise as are ex-
clusive ari(i distinct in character and design. Not a store in this state devotes more energy and time in securing the
proper lines, nor is there one who is more able financially or otherwise in getting the inside prices from the largest manufac-
turers than we are. Our connections with the merchandise world are such lhat it commands almost anything within reason.
