The Spring Materials. There is a patriotic effort made by the American dressmakers to bring in such fabrics as are produced by our

cotton mills.

The use of the gayly colored calicoes of the South which have been worn by the negroes for generations, has long been advocated, and (he nsc of the bandanna handkerchief for trimming. It is quite possible that the northern part of the country has never quite realized the beauty of the cheap fabrics that are turned out In bales by the Southern mills. Calico bos never come Into Its own in this co an try. although Paul Voiret admired it more than any other national fabric that we offer. There is an effort being made to Introduce It at the Florida resorts this spring, nnd It may come about that we shall sec It In a great variety of costumes lato In the season. Jersey Is rampant, and when made of artificial silk threads or of Thla worsteds, it holds Its own In an wonting manner. The novelty Jersey show* a cream or oyster white background with a large nnd ratlier grotesque ornament woven Into It or apidled by means of small beads. All the Chinese fabrics have l«cen reinstated.
