Clothes ! BY MARY MARSHALL. i FTER the bride's trousseau is worn out or out of date—what then? - Our young middleclass ma- tron is faced with a most diffi- cult problem in clothes economy. for the 'chances are that as the helpmate of a young man still on the Jower rungs of the ladder of success she will have what we politely call a “limited dress allowance'—decidedly limited in most instances. The dress situation of the young American matron is more dificult than that of other women for several rea- wons. In the first place, if she has come from a family where there was not a large enough income to provide her lavighly with clothes, she has doubtless gone to work. and from her earnings she has spent more on clothes than she has saved. No work- ing girls in the world spend so lavishly for clothes as the Americans. For another thing American girls usually have no dowries. The good cld-fashioned idea still prevails that a worth-while husband should provide entirely for his wife's support. The young working girl in Fran herself silk stockings and wear stantial, practical clothes so that she may save something every week from | her wages for a neat little “dot” when | she is married. Frequently the in-| come of the dot is used to provide her | with her own personal allowance. But to the girl of good sense and | enthusiasm the problem of being well | dressed though married, though a hard one, it at least amusing For the| first time in her life she turns: her talents to account to make some of her own clothes; she watches the d. papers for news of special sales. has her clothes made over and re- modeled and she considers prices of shoes, hats, frocks and lingerie as she never dréamed of doing when she ular -dress. allowance from worked to earn her own identally she looks foPward ushand’s in- may have living. to eveF¥iincrease in hey come 3% a time when =he more to spend for clothes. When, as not infrequent Ei1l who has been decided fore marriage falls off perceptibly in smartness afterwards. the fault almost | always is due to the fact that she has | become lax in her attention to details. The girl who is as precise in her coiffuré, & her hands and of her gen- eral make-up after marriage never gives the impression of being bad dressed no matter if the amount she spends on clothes has been strictly limited. 5 e After martiage the most important part a woman's wardrobe is the |, clothes she ‘weaxs. at, home.
