Also J9J3 Materials for Wash Suits, Such as Linens Crashes, Corded Weaves and Mercerized Poplins.

Hut it is no hard and fast rule as an inspection of our beautiful line will prove. .Many of the standard length, others a little longer or a little shorter, according to taste and suita bility. Simplicity is the keynote of the day, and it is wonderfully demon strated by the fact that all of our tailored garments are as simple as they are attractive. Mannish in effect, many of the tailored suits are not un like tno models worn by men. The most tavorod stylo is that resembling a young man's coat. Strictly tailored, cutaway front' jacket, longer at the back than at the front, notched collars, single' breasted closings, plains, sim ply trimmed skirts. These are the leading characteristics of miladv's fash ionable tailor-made of the da v. COAT Long Coats to cover Spring Frocks. These aro simple affairs with straight lines, sometimes thev have a touch of gay braid or a bit of silk and then again thoy may be perfectly plain.

West ern hemlock, says tho popnrtment of Agriculture, desorves n bolter opin ion ami more general uso than It now obtains. IntrliiHlcnlly It Is among tho most Important of western woods. Tho wood of tlio wostern hemlock has generally been considered an In ferior one chiefly because of tho prejudice creutod hy tho nnmo, which has caused It bo Ideutlllod with east ern hemlock. Tests by the forest service, however, show It to huvo S8 per cent the strength of Douglas fir, ono of the country's chlof con trite tlou timbers. In fact It Is often mix ed with Douglas fir and used for the sumo purposes. Tho wood Is practically free from pitch, hns n handsome .grain, takes paint and stain well, and works smoothly. It Is sultnblo for sash nnd door stock, furnltiiro, Interior finish, framing, HonrliiK. boxes, ban els, and pulp. In bBdgos nnd trestles It can bo used for nil but tho heaviest con struction. When proporly trented with preservatives, It Is a valunblo cross tlo nnd polo wood.
