Your Easter Suit Will Have More Value Co operation is a very1 important link to stores who know how to use it. We've used it to a very great extent, for your benefit, this season. Co operation with manufacturers who are the outstanding leaders in their field who buy in tremendous quantities, improve their product, cut their costs, give more value co operation with these progressive firms, plus the largest spring purchases we've made in years, plus a clipping of our own costs, give you tremendous, unmatchable values at Silyerberg's now.

To be fashicrt vfci a wAitn must now be cotton wise. An eddly e.ouglT fcr Dame Fashion is cn ths tlis thrift and economy. For the advancinj season, cotton will be used in mornin3, aftsrnoon and evening dress. The afternoon dresses strike the newest note. During the past few eeasens women have worn sports dresses from dawn to dusk.

Now the afternoon dress has regained its popularity and is more formal, more feminine than ever. At the latest fashion shows and exhibits in exclusive New York shops, I notice many plain dresses worn with figured coats, the latter cf finger tip length which is best for cotton fabrics. Or the skirt and coat of figured fabric is worn with a plain blouse. The more exclusive the shop, th more interesting the accessories shown with such costumes, harmonizing shoes footwear partioiilaily sandals of straw cr two kinds of leather or of cotton fabric to match the dress or suit; cotton parasols and bags, little hats developed in Etraw or the same fabric of the dress, plain or figured, Silk stockings in the popular sunburn shade always. For afternoon frocks, batiste and the novelty cotton fabrics in sheer finish are used.

The circular skirt leads, flounces, jabots, cascades all sorts of feminine trimming are employed. Sleeves are lcnj. For formal wear, crgandle leads, with linen batiste following closely. Da not make the mlsta'ia cf trimmins any of thess fabrics with lace, Self trimming is correct. A knot or effect in satin or ribbon velvet constitutes the smart accessory.

Yellow in all its shades Inads in coloring, with off white tones next. In order to Interest women In making different types of cotton dresses in accord with this new mods, Cleland Simpson company, are running a Borden Fabrics dresrmakins contest, and will be in the store on Monday, cr have one of my assistants give ycu the latest fashion information. Cleland Simpson will have a special straticn week starting Monday, at which time attractive dresies will be shown. $8500,0 Realty Deal Consummated in Pitlston PITTSTON, March 1.
