Most of these shops are conveniently located in the very center of the shopping district, so it is possible to do one's shopping i In a very short space of time if one includes the second-floor shops in one's program. THE new fall sports hats of duvetyne at the store of A. G. Spalding & Bros., 1210 Chest nut Street, are exciting much fa vorable comment. Duvetyne makes a very practical and good-looking hat and these models are really distinct ive. One is trimmed with angora, another has chenille trimming, and n duvetyne sailor in most at tractive colors has a quilted crown. I was interested in the fibcr-siik sweaters, a Tuxedo model in black or white and a surplice tie-on sweater in various bright colors. I noticed that Spalding's have reduced a num ber of their pique, linen and burella skirts and there are some very good looking ones to be had nt reasonable prices. You will like their sports shirts, too. They are of dimity, madras, cheviot and French cham-bray. GREAT changes have taken place in Tho Blum Store, at 1310 Chestnut Street, since its occu pation by the present owners. A great many improvements are being made and I hear that the balcony is being made ready for use as n fur department. Among the interesting new gowns which I saw at The Blum Store this week was a gorgeous black dinner dress, which could be worn nt all except the most formal evening affairs. It had a bodice of silver brocade, veiled with net. A panel of the brocade reached from neck to waist in back and the sleeves wore of net. The skirt was of net over satin. The double net tunic was heavily weighted with jet bends and edged with heavy fringes, also of jet. There was a deep girdle of jet sequins. HAVE you ever shopped with the aid of a catalogue? It is a fascinating pastime and one that Is much in favor at our summer resorts. Some ladies of my acquaint ance nro anticipating their fail pur chases with the aid of one of Bailey, Banks & Biddle Company's Gift Books. Ono, who is a firm believer in the adage that "procrastination is the thief of time," has chosen her Christmas gifts from the catnlogue during hor sojourn in the mountains. It is a most interesting little vol ume, its pages being devoted to illus trations and descriptions of jewelry, ailver, crystal, chinn, clocks, leather ffoods and all tho lovely and unusual things to be found at Bailey's.
