Sunday Clothes

Says Miss Wilkins somewhere, "It's a bad sign when a woraan's Sunday clothes get shabby first. " This is sound, sane philosophy, but it isn't up to date. It's a former day creed, not a latter day one. There are no sticli things as ' ' Sunday, " or "best," clothes nowadays. Woinen have street spits, house gowns, evening gowns and the like, but no ' ' best ' ' and ' ' common ' ' grades. The distinction is now one of kind rather than of degree. The change is for the better, as showing that the niain thing sought after is suitability rather than mere decoration without significance or purpose. - New York Sun.
