MARGARET ANGLIN ON DRESS
Slio Says "Savo on, Frocks and Put the
Money Into Furs."
"My clothes creed Is well summed In 1
three statements,"- unya Margaret An-'
glln lu Human l.lfe. "First. I believe1
In saving In the mutibur of frocks mid !
putting the money Into good furs. j
"Furs are very expensive, mid thoy
nro constantly growing more so. Nov '
ertheless they me so bocomlng to all
women that It pays to sacrltlco other
things lu the wardrobe to buy thoui
and to buy good ones,
"Next, I believe lu having good, well
cut gowns, little trimmed, but plenty
of Jabots, and .gulmps mid yokes nnd
collars, so that there can bo fresh, '
clean things for the neck ovory day. I
like the Intimate things, those clothes
I
i touch the hklu, to bo dainty.
'Third. 1 tiellevo hi the tailor gown,
t I like It trimmed and softened.
. to adorned French and American
t.illor mades I prefer to the unadorned
lingllsh styles, which nro too trying
for any woman,
"To this creed I would ndd that If I
wero very poor and nblo to have but
tew clothes l should make a point of
having my gowns made Just alike.
Then no one would over know which
wero new ami whjch old. 1 should al
ways wear black In the day and white
In the evening.
"Hut every one likes to dilate upon
his creed, so let mo add something by
way of elucidation and elaboration t.
mine. First, as to furs. prefer dart,
furs. Thov look ilcher and. as a rule
me tnoiv liec .ioiiig. Fursonnlly 1 like
tho long haired furs, but If 1 were of
less height I should wear the short
haired ones. Mink Is the favorite, as

EAST MAIN STREET MEDFORD, OREGON I
It sbould e, of short women.
"For the street I like the plainest
gowns In cut nud color I cau get, but I
will not wear the Kngllsh tailor made
frock, which lu every respect except
bifurcation Is exactly like a man's
busluoss suit. Tho Freuch and Ameri
cans trim these suits, femlulslng thorn
with rows of braid and bauds of silk
or folds of velvet, aud they aro incal
culably more becoming.
"The KnglNh i iilor suit deninnds n
stiff linen or heavy tliumel shirt waist.
The French or Amerlcmi penults bod
Ices of silk or velvet or oveu.of chlf
fou. A French tailor suit I got lu
Tnrls and have worn, as It seems, end
lessly Is of blue black cheviot cut with
a long coat and plain but ilarlng skirt.
"So far It is Kngllsh, but It has a
becoming shawl collar of soft silk
nnd rowy of braid that brighten It.
And the bodice Is of black chiffon with
pipings of pale blue silk, nud with it
1 wear a fresh guliupe of lace or em
broidered linen or of wldto chiffon ov
ery day, Odds mid ends left from n
womout white frock work up tluely
Into dainty accessories llko this that
make a costume charming.
"Ono rule I always follow I uovor
wenr In tho house tho gown I havo
worn on the street. Tho momout I
como Into tho house, no matter how
tired I mn, I slip off the street suit and
got Into a house gown.
"The chnuge lu Itself rests too. I do
this lu part from hygienic motives, In
part from artistic ones, Tho street
gown Is not sanitarily fit to bo worn In
the house until It has been well brush
ed and gone over to rid It of any germs
It might havo accumulated on tho
crowded pavements, crowded in more
than oue way. But artistically the
street gown Is also Impossible. ,It
doesu't go with tho furulture."
