ri S two moat interesting features of spring suits are the tuck-in blouse, which when tucked in at the waM gives somewhat the aspect of mans suit, and the distinctly rippled or flared skirt which is a deadly feminine turn. That even these street costumes re.sort to flared lines is significant, for long after this movement came into soft dresses the suit of woolen retained its straight skirt, it is certainly a hint that fashion is beginning to look on the straight line as uninteresting for any type of costume and suggesting only a utilitarian garment. The new suits with their short jackets of youthful quality are informal ami the most suitable costumes for Spring days in town, and have a smart style aspect which will recomment them to the well-dressed woman. For the woman who divided her days between town and country and who desires a type of costume suitable to both, there is the suit designed on the new cardigan lines, in smart tweed woolens which admit to the town grouping but which has a casual character which admits it to suburban life. The suit with jacket of finger-tip length has a conservative quality which recommends it for the older or larger woman who sees a too youthful note in the jacket costume. They may be accompanied by a longer tunic blouse which may be made to suggest quite as new and smart a note as the tuck-in. They iuay also piay tne same roe as regards occasions, as the jacket suit.
