Jersey Retains Popularity.

Jersey is one of the most satisfac-
tory materials for summer time, if one
must have wool at all. Certain it is
that women indulge in its use unneces—
sarily. On the warmest of days, and
in spite of the wool shortage and pro-
tests of economy, women sweltering
in serge dresses and furs are still fre-
quently seen.

The obvious way to economize in
wool is to wear a suit whennecessary

and cotton and silk dresses at other-

times, reserving serge dresses for {all
and winter wear.

Paris prefers jersey weaves. we are
told. both in wool and :=ilk. and one
can hardly do better than to take a
hint from this fact. and certainly the
better grades make up into most satis-
factory suits. Looser in weave, jersey
allows for a trifle of air circulation.
but the wool affords some protection
