Tritune MRS.

Nothing can be more un-youthful than a weighty silk of “standing alone” quality. A pretty toilet like this of Mrs. Sartoris’, a delicate, li bodied mauve silk, trimmed with knife pleating of crepe lisse of the same share, is a psturne which should not cost more than , and is excellent wear for a lady at social gathering, reception or ball, d the drive.

I meant to say a word about Mr. Sartoris’ costume. but I'am not so well versed in the jargon of the clothes which adorn the form of mighty man.
