Reat tha bell ahape. Bleevea are trimmed
atralght up and down, round and In pretty
trimming- effect.' Moat aleevea ara trimmed
to conform to the reet of the trimming
outline. The high pointed Qlbaon collar
aeema to be giving away to tha round and
ehaped collara which are not aa heavily
frilled at the top aa laat acaaon, although
ruchlnga are ait 111 to be aeen. A number of
the advance aummer modela ehow the low
Dutch collar, while many of the drepma
with collara ahow the simulated round
Dutch collara, which la effected by trim
mlng of lacea. braiding or embroidering.
Although the atralght up and down ef
fect are atlll good, a number of the hlgh
atyle garmenta show a great deal of tha
trimming arrangement In simulation of tha
draped tunic, ahort In front and long,
pointed and rounded length In the back. A
number of the high-style models show the
exaggerated long waist effect, which Is ef
fected by trimming arrangement much like
the empire waist treatment. Bolero and
other Jacket effecta, are also produced by
trimming arrangement. Boleroa are square
and In rounded cutaway form and tha
close-fitted effects are better liked than
those that are made to hang looaely over
the bust. The bolero effects usually ac
company the empire cut gown, while the
long, aleeveless coat effecta are to be aeen
In tha advanced long-watsted dresses. This
tendency toward tha exaggerated long wa'at
is alio to be observed In the numerous low
set, broad dlrectolra pockets that adorn a
number of dresses. The general effect of
these dresses Is of a gracefully hanging
one-plcse dress, with sweeping length of
the skirt and a sleeveless bolero or longer
Jackets.
Embroidery,
Color In embroidery is more pronounced
than ever this Benson. Bandings, wnlst
fronts, allover patterns and various other
forms of embroidery are shown In color.
Although colored batiste with self-color
embrodery Is shown to some extent, most
of the embroidery shown Is white, with
color embroidering In AnglaUe, Medelra
and the similar blind and open patterns.
A great deal of the cut embroideries In
Venlse and Irish lsce design Is also to be
aeen. Half-made robea, waists, corset
covers, chemise, petticoats and children's
dresses, as well as unfinished yokes, col
lars and various other accessories ara to
be had In hand-embroldcred as well as In
the effective machine Imitations which re
semble the hand work so closely that only
the cloaest Inspection reveali the differ
ence. In colored embroideries there are
some high class novelties, such aa the
highly colored Hindoo embroidering, which
la done on heavy crashlike linen. Very
vivid colors and much tinsel of gold and
silver are aeen In theee embroideries.
Veiling.
Veiling continues to be good and, although
during the colder weather fabric vclla were
in pretty fair demand, more business seems
to be done on the mesh veilings. The
Tuxedo veilings are atlll good and the
plain dress net dotted In various slae dots
are still holding their own.
There is at present frothing newer than
the Russian and magpie veilings, which
continue to be in excellent demsnd. Only
In fabrics does the demand run toward
veils, but mesh veilings are sold by tho
yard. Black la an excellent color for veil
ing, while black and white double meshes
and all ahadea of gray follow black very
closel. Navies and browns are also taken
to aome extent. In chiffon and other fabric
velle the tendency seems to be for white
nd light colors.
nibboma.
Spring will open with great promise for
the ribbon department. Bashes and girdles
made of various wldtha or rlbbona wilt be
in very wide demand. There will also be a
demand for ribbon hair ornaments of all
sorts. The velvet rlbbona will b brought
Inro play for hair ornaments. Children's
boxed ribbon aeta are becoming more pop
ular than ever. Metallic ribbons la all
colors will be very popular for belting.
Ribbon tlea for low ahoea are also to be
taken Into consideration when ' rtbbon Is
bought. While sstln, taffeta, faille and
messallne In plain weaves are good, no rib
bon department will be ccmplete unless
there Is some showing of the numerous
fancy weaves and printed effects. Per
sians, Dresden snd fancy check, stripes and
brocaded effects are well represented
among the spring lines. The high-class
novelties are the black and white effects,
which show some handsome brocade and
other novel effects.

effectiveness on the flat; and sheerest of
materials.
Net Employed to Wide Extent.
Much Is done with net of all kinds. The
allover net dress made over silk or heavier
net lining seems to be making a bid for
general popularity, and lace bandings are
effectively combined with the plain, tucked
and spotted nettings. Net is also employed
as a combination material, for many of the
heaviest of linen dresses are prettily com
bined with net. Net sleeves and yokes are
seen in garments made of linen crepe, aa
well as cloth and silk. Heavy soutache
braiding on net or heavy embroidery are
's roes

1 tie pupular interest that Is centered- ivo.i
the dreaa for the coming aeaaon promises
to create an epoch in the history of gar
meat making. The offerings of the ready-to-wear
garmenta In that line exce.1 any
thing that haa been abown in previous
gaasons. Aa In the suit, there is a general
uniformity in :egard to figure outline, but
&re la enough detail and diversity of
trimming Ideas to offer wide variety.
'There are dresses for every occasion, from
the plain street dreaa to be worn without
outer wrap, to the dainty and fluffy lin
gerie, net and lace dresses for exclusive
dressy wear. .

Baialre Waist Hick la Evidence. .
Not so broadly accentuated as In previous
seasons, but the empire bodice is still to
the fore, especially in the dressier gar
ments: ' While most of the dresses are
without. lining (for only the net and lace
garmenta are lined) and are made without
stays, a number of the high class dresses
are made with a wide, boned, form-fitting
Inner girdle, which is made to fit close to
the figure but Is slightly extended In the
back so that the skirt should fall straight
from bust line to accentuate the hiplesA
effect.
( loth ad Silk Dreasea.
' For early spring there Is a wide showing
of light weight cloth drekaes, which are
made in piinctss and rmi'iie styles, cut In
creased snowing . of dresses cut in one pune and in itemi-eflect. Prunella, l!glit
piece; especially among the high class gar- weight sere, Panama and some fancy
merits. There seems to be a tendency fruin worsteds aie employed in the tailored gar
getting away from the belt outline whether ment which are handsomely tailored and
placed high or at normal line. All dressrs trimmed with braid, embroidery and self
ave nii to hang and fit smoothly In long material. Buttons ar' still .used for dress
early wear. Foulard, smooth and roughly
finish ed pongees for the high style dress
and light weight messallnea and softly
finished taffeta for the popular garments
are the silks employed. Foulards are es
pecially well thought of for warm weather
wear. - 8Uk dresses are similarly made to
the cloth garments, although many of the
silk drtsses show greater elaboration of
detail and leas tailoring than the cloth
numbers.
A great deal Is thought of the lingerie
dresses which are made in the prevailing
dress styles with a greater leaning to
wards short-waisted effects. Batiste, mull,
swiss and all-over embroidery are used
extensively for the lingerie modela, while
bandings, medallions and tucklngs form a
part of the trimming acheme. -
Panels, tunic ideas, boleros and high and
normal waist line effects are carried out
by the treatment of tucking and bandings.
The wider use of heavy lacea la one of the
aeason's Innovations. Plata heavy linen
cluny is used In place of the val. laces, al
though val. Is still largely' seen among the
popular price garments. Irish, rval and
imitation, and Venine are used In effective
contrast to the combined tine embroideries,
batiste and fine net top lacea. great
deal la done with tuckinj, which is used in

plainly tailored dresses show . the patnl
front and beck, whether the bodice la
ahort or long ut aides,
ornaments are well to the fore.
Sleeveless, low cut neck cloth dresses axe
