They will be car Many Beautiful Bedroom Suites In the Semi-Annual Furniture Sale Possibly no one particular section of the Furniture Sale has come in for more justifiable admiration than that devoted to the Bedroom Furniture. We have taken great pains in the selection of the Suites comprising this collection. They are notable for their good taste and tlv.ir charm quite unlike the heavy, unattractive designs one frequently sees. And many very many of them have been picked out to beautify homes.

"Sartor Resartus" in which ho defined for all time the philosophy of clothes. Now along come Harry James Smith with "A ratior-Made Man," which describes in clever and telling fashion the philosophy of clothes according to Twentieth Century yardsticks and proves once more the truth of the old adage that "clothe make the man." At leat I hoy make him superficially, ried out light-h a 1 for who among the coerced But though the bale is nearing its end, a good choice remains. Here are some lead ing examples: We've captured every little note of smartness that the new season has brought. Not an idea of consequence has escaped us.

Flaps from the bodice hold large detached pockets at each side over a side-pleated skirt. Lots the man." Anyhow, Harry Smith's clover play, which was presented to an appreciative audience at the Cohan Harris Theater last night, Is one of the most subtle satires on society and mock hero worship that has been seen In New York In many years. It was to be expected that the author of "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leifb' than that in "A Tailor-Made Man," because he probes far beneath the surface ami shows us humanity In the Working, The power of evening clothes has already been shown by Henry into accepting what is charming? The well-known scarcity of leathers and their prohibitively high prices have had not a little to do in shaping the careers of Fall shoes. For if one can be shod as smartly at a lesser expenditure, need it matter? "Of course not," answers common-sense.

So Fall Fashion has discovered that Worumbo Cloth is so like suede cloth on the foot that she has made some of her smartest walking and afternoon boot uppers of it. And since cloth cleans so much better than leather, it is altogether a happy choice. A handsome walking boot model of tan Russia (illustrated) has uppers of fawn Worumbo cloth. Heels a la militaire, with an inner gouge for lighter weight. $8.95.

He has held the mirror up in nature ana given us a chance to see ourselves "just as we are without one plea." By this we don't mean to say that Mr. Smith has written a great play.

But he has performed an amazingly dissection. All of the "innards" that make man what he Is. covered with the glamor of evening clothes, are revealed before the footlights, and we chuckle appreciatively because It Is all so true.
