Today no woman's clothes need proclaim the thick ness of her pocketbook. The advertisements which meet the eye of the woman accustomed to social secre taries and liveried chauffeurs, and guide her in her selection of a wardrobe likewise greet and guide the young lady who earns her own living. And both may be thankful that advertising has forever banished the dowdy, frumpy "female." Where will the waistline be? Bows at the cuffs, or not? "V" neck or square? How long or how short?' What materials does Paris favor? What colors are "being1 worn"? Those questions are answered for everyone in the advertisements. And with the ans wers are coupled the names of manufacturers and merchants who make and sell materials, trimmings, accessories, on which you can rely. For those adver tised names are advertised only because they are re liable. Otherwise you would probably never hear of them. a la I r K t ft I K I- You can follow the advertised styles in' assurance and buy by advertised names with profit a n Si ibs: m m 'V?
