There is no lack of variety in suits
this spring—there is a style for every
figure. Here is one that fulfills all the
requirements of the mode—with short
coat, slim lines and ingenious decora
tion. /There is not an inch of cloth
to spare in the gkirt, and having saved
to the utmost here, the designer was
able to indulge the coat in sprightly
ripples at each side of a back panel.
Embroidery in a braided pattern of the
same color as the cloth, and very small
buttons make ar elegant Jecoration.
Space forbids any attempt at listing our stock here, we can only present
a few spring ideas and urge you to visit our department store, allowing
yourself plenty of time to be shown all goods in which you are interested.
We have the goods—-we have the clerks to show them, and we want you to
feel at home. Fair and honest treatment to all is our best advertisement.

These hats anticipate the summer,
but they are ready fer it, and sure that
nothing more beautiful will follow
them. At the top a large watteau hat,
with crepe brim and foliage crown, re
joices in a heavy ribbon sash and a
little nosegay of tiny flowers. Below
an all-black milan has a stately coro
net of malines, and at the bottom a
little poke-shape of crepe and braid is
conscious of a perfect finish in a clus
ter of small fruit and foliage.

Fine voile is;..fhe most durable of all
the sheer fabrics that are used for
making summer blouses and for this
reason it deserves the fine needlewerk
that is lavished on it. In the plain and
elegant blouse shown here, rows of
tucks and small pearl buttons are used
for decoration. The faultless work
manship required to make groups of
tucks cemters attention on them and
being accomplished they prove the best
of all adornments for the tailored
blouse.

long or three-quarter length, but for
general wear the long coat is the fa
vorite, If you are looking for novelty
in a coat of this kind consider the ad
vantage of the shapely model shown
above, It has a triple cape collar and
an odd new arrangement of sash ends
at the sides, They are cut in one with
a narrow band extending across the
back and front. The coat hangs al
most straight its fullness held in by a
