NEW PATTERN PRINTS SHOWN

Fabric Is Entirely English In Design and Manufacture; Firm Like Percale; Dyes Warranted. Some new English prints are in the market. They are entirely English in design and manufacture, tjje material is of a firm quality like percalfc and the dyes are warranted. They come in all colors —rose, pink, greens, blues, terracotta, or really the new henna — with the little old-fashioned designs In purple or lavender. The patterns are small, delicate roses on the different grounds, small conventional patterns, and little leaf patterns combined with a small round figure of some kind. There are a few patterns with the ever recurrent-polka dot of moderate size, set rather far apart on white or colored grounds. Another old-time one revived is the tiny, pinhead dot in white on navy blue. These, however, are exceptions, most of the prints being in small, sometimes very tiny, allover designs set closely. The only tfiing tn a way of a stripe is indefinite, formed of lines of the dots. The prints make up into very simple gowns for women, children and young girls.
