The unusually warm weather, preceeding the open- ings, made the women anxious to ex- change winter hats and coats for those of spring. The advance in cost of hats and wearing apparel seemed not to interfere with the sale of these articles for the pretty hats, and stylish suits and coats were picked up almost as soon as they were displayed. The stores of J. MacTavish and Stewart Bros. have always been noted for their excellent taste in window dress- ing and interior decoration, and on this occasion the expectations of the visitors were fully realized. Suits; coats, dress goods, silks, satins, rib- bons, laces and flowers were shown in .great profusion of .style, design and color. In the millinery rooms a great variety was hown in; hats and trim- mings. Turbans are made of straw braids or a combination of braid and taffeta, with an occasional crown of flowers. Many of the tailored hats have a brim turned up off the face, while the brimmed hats are. very wide at the sides. Some of the straw hats so emphasize the lacquered effect that they are shining in trimming as well as in shape. Embroidered designs in raffia are a very fashionable trim ming for this season's- hats and one that promises to be very popular. The transparent crown and brim are also shown in some of the larger hats. Color seems to run riot in trimmings, and flowers and ribbons take on all the bright shades. Local Briefs.—Mr. J. M.
