COLORS TO CHOOSE FROM. One of the first things that any woman ought to decide when taking up the momectous problem of "the dress" Is the color. It is really lie most Important question, for it Jptermines whether the gown is to ie serviceable or fragile, becoming unbecoming, smart or otherwise. The question of the becoming-iess of colors remains constant for he Individual who Is to wear It. This statement should be modified, -f course, to the effect that as one strows older one outgrows certain colors and maturity makes colors unbecoming In youth very satisfac-tnry.

For Instance, the young girl with the fresh bloom of youth on her face should remember that the lay will come, and come quick! v. when she can no longer wear light uate the tone of the nd the girl who is slight and nature in her youth should not be discouraged because she cannot 'ook well In black, navy blue or lark brown. As she passes out of he "flapper" class, matures in manner and becomes plumper, 'hese colors will suit her. So much for the becomlngnesa of-colors. Now for the.

matter of appropriateness. Of course, one Inments the fact that dark and dul' 'olors are used much and one 'ooks at the Italian peasants lr pictures or the recently landed Au-'rians, Hungarians and Pollocks in reality, and almost envies them 'heir brilliant reds and greens and blues. But In spite of the drawbacks of dark colors, they surely have their advances for the serviceable gown. For the wash dress you should always remember that bright colors fade, and for the dress that does not wash there Is the other thrt that bright and Ugh colors show the soil. So for the serviceable dr-ss sti to the dark colors and satisfy your taste for th gsrrish in accessories.

A dainty ribbon to be worn under the rol' buck collar will Introduce what ever touch of cdor you may wish In vour work-a-day shirt waist costume. And, of course, for your dress-up" evening or afternoon elothes which you wear comparatively seldom and take care of. you may have as much color as you choose. Now for fashions In color. It's a funny thing how the vogue for colors comes and goes and how cer tain seasons one color seem! smart which the next tiav seem ordinary.

Just at present the three colors that are being overworked and that are wavering between being very smart or decidedly commonplace, OLD MOTHER NATURE Is Brushing Up For Spring Spring is upon us we'll all soon be in the "hubub of 'Spring house cleaning" and refurnishing. Undoubtedly you'll need some new pieces of furniture perhaps for an entire house or room. Perhaps just some new chairs, a tuble or two, or some of those pretty Wicker things we're showing. Some New Rugs! New Curtains! Draperies! Whatever your needs may be, you'll find beautiful things here in profusion of DODGE'S DEPENDABLE QUALITY at prices as low as consistent with You cannot look through a larger or better stock than we show you anywhere in city. of fashion, so to speak, as yet worn only by the really smart women, are cornflower blue, which Is being pushed in Paris, and various shades of gray.

The gray woolen sweater Is to have a big vogue with the ultrasniart people, and no doubt In a season or two will be as tiresome as the mustard-colored one Is to-i day. It is one of the coming col-1 ors In that it can be worn with even the most brilliant of accessories. Among the varieties of gray that will predominate are mist, steel and smoke, varying from the very light gray to a much darker Bhade. W. C.
