PRESENTED WITH JEWEL.
THE CORSETS FOR ALL
There is a moderately curved line
over the hip with more clearly de
fined curves at the side fronts, but
the back and front are straight and
the skirts medium long. This is
about all that can be said abo"t
them. There are extremes, how
ever .such as corsets with very
short skirts and a decided "nip" at
the 'waistline, the hip and the side
fronts; but for safety it will be best
to confine selections to corsets em
bodying the style features first out
lined. In this display we present
many models-in all sizes.
EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SUITS FOR FALL
ATTRACTIVE
IS
NEW,
AND EXCEPTIONALLY
Probably the most notable feature is the length of suit coats. Some are just to the
knee, some 40 and 42 inches while, soma are only 26 or 28 inches long. Many are rippled
below the waistline at the sides, though some that will-be liked are in straight-line ef
fects. In collars there are straight high collars of fur, velvet or cloth buttoning under
the chin; high collars attached to a cape or Sailor collar, draped collars, and flat "col
lars. Sleeves are usually full. Skirts are a trifle longer and of about the same fullness as in
the past. They are mostly in straight Unes, some being semi-circular. Not a few are
pleated throughout. Navy bhie, Catawba, mulberry, tete de negre, taupe, and dark green
are the favorite colors. For simple tailored suits serges, poplins, and gabardines are
favored, with velour, velvet and broadcloth for the dressier types, -
