IMPORTANCE'OF THE TOP COAT.
For Dress it is Developed in Velours

rics—Furs a Favored
Trimming.
New York, Sept. 28.—Early in the
season when Paris placed her stamp of
approval on the frock of taffeta, and
then a little later adopted the one-piece
frock of serge and gabardine, on prin
cess and semi-princess lines, for almost
every cccasion, a demand was straight
way created for the separate coat. De
signers are now giving much of their
attention to this important garment.
A SEASON OF SEPARATE COATS.
It is essentially a season of separate
coats. At any public gathering the pre
dominance of the one-piece dress with
its accompanying coat is very noticea
ble. Princess and semi-princess frocks
of serge or gabardine, braid-trimmed,
and rather sevore. are preferred for
morning. To wear with these frocks
Paris has giver, us an all-enveloping
coat, also of serge or gabardine, called
the coat dress. Then there are many
other models on the redingote order,

A GREAT-COAT IN RAGLAN STYLE-
with revers extending from collar to
hem: one or two designs showing the
Louis XVth influence, and the 1870 pe
riod. with slender, fitted backs and
waists, and full circular, flaring basques.
Frocks of taffeta and faille are ac
companied by harmonizing coats of vel
ours de laine, velvet or plush, cut red
ingote fashion, or on short, tight-fitting
lines. Velvet is one of the smartest
coat materials of the season. On the
avenue, and in the tea-rooms every af
ternoon, one may see any number of
smart little frocks of taffeta or faille,
with short, full skirts, and harmonizing
small coats, or basques of velvet or
plush. Some of these chic velvet
basques, fitting snugly over the bust,
curving at the waist-line, button from
the top of the high choker collar to the
pointed lower edge, often forming pan
nier-like draperies over the hips. There
is no material richer or more becoming
than velvet.
THE RUSSIAN INFLUENCE.
In the more dressy coats one notices
a decided leaning toward the Russian.
There is something smart and youthful
about the double-breasted, high-collared
Russian coat, with its trimming of fur,
which makes it appeal to many. These
models are made in various lengths, ac
cording to the purpose for which they
are intended. One of the smartest coats
of the season was developed in Petro-
grad green velours de laine, on Russian
lines, collared, cuffed, and bmded
around the lower edge with beaver.
Large crocheted buttons of antique gold
cord closed the coat and finished the
wide girdle of green velours. A smart
little turban of beaver completed a most
attractive ensemble.
THE COLLAR MAKES THE COAT.
It appears as if all the designers’ in
genuity has been centered on the collar
of the coat. There are wide cape col
lars, Chin-Chin collars, Quaker collars,
wide crush collars. “A” collars, collars
dating from the time of Incroyables,
high Directoire collars, and many oth
ers. Often these are of fur, one of the
short-haired pelts—preferably, beaver,
nutria, seal or krimmer; and then again
they are of the material of the coat,
elaborately trimmed with braid em
broidery, or a smartly worked-out de
sign in Angora wool. This latter is a
very new and effective touch brought
olit at the early Paris openings. Cuffs,
too, come in for their share of attention.
Some flare, some are made gauntlet
fashion, some are cut to fit the forearm
snugly from elbow to wrist, where they
flare 9lightly, and others are merely
straight Bands of the same, or a con
trasting material.
Sleeves on both coats and frock3 are
varied most attractively, the models j
being taken from a number of different
clothes periods.
COATS FOR SPORTS.
Paquin introduced at her recent show
ing a coat of suede. At a tennis match
some weeks ago a duplicate of this
same coat was worn, with matching
spats, hat band, and girdle of the suede.
It is an nnusual fad, hut one that is prac
tical for motoring ami all out-of-door
amusements. Stripes, checks, and
rather vivid plaids are popular for the
sport coat as well as the various at
tractive tweed mixtures. One smart
motor coat of plaid, in a subdued tone
of gray, noted at the tennis games, was
trimmed with emerald green suede, col
lar, wide belt, and cuffs. The effect
was unusual and extremely effective.
Leather is a trimming detail of many
coats this fall.
The huge motor coat of warmly col
ored plaid, heavy curly cloth, rough
tweed, and various other warm, light
weight fabrics, is often collared, cuffed
and belted in suede or kid, in a plain,
contrasting color. Leather buttons, too,
are being used, and seam pipings of
leather.

NORFOLK.
mixtures, it is equally becoming and
effective; while in plain, hard-finish
serge, it is trim and tailored looking, a
good model for the business girl. It is
youthful and suited to many types. No
coat model is more satisfactory for the
woman or girl who makes her own
clothes, as it is comparatively easy to
fashion.
A WORD ON FI R FABRICS.
While these fabrics have been used
for coats and wraps for a season or two,
they have never reached the perfection
that they have this winter. At a show
ing of the coats and wraps at the Rita,
a short time ago, these fur cloths were
used exclusively. There ‘were tiabv-
lamb cloths, caracul cloths, monkey
skin, and any number of others hearing
the manufacturers’ trade names. These
materials are especially well suited to
evening wraps, and the more dressy
day coats. They are warm, light of
weight, richly colored, and generally
satisfactory.
These fabrics are attractive, too, for
trimmings, collars, cuffs, and trimming
hands, on coats of other materials, An
African brown baby-lamb cloth is espe
cially beautiful for the last mentioned
use.
It is the doing, not the saying, that
makes the hero.
For the girl who golfs, walks, and en
joys the great out-of-doors, no coat is
more satisfactory than the Norfolk. It
lends itself well to almost any material.
In tweed, it is smart and substantial
looking; in stripes, plaids and novelty

Cam* to Resale.
Catron, Ky.—In an intereiting letter
from this place, Mrs. Bettie Bullock
writes as follows: “I suffered for four
years, with womanly troubles, and during
this time, I could only sit up for a little
while, and could not walk anywhere at
all. At times, I would tiave severe pains
in my left side.
The doctor was called in, and his treat
ment relieved me for a while, but I was
soon confined to my bed again. Alter
that, nothing seemed to do me any good.
1 had gotten so weak I could not stand. |
and I gave up in despair.
At last, my husband got me a bottle ol
Cardui, the woman’s tonic, and I com- i
menccd taking it. f rom the very first!
dose, 1 could teli it was helping me. K 1
can now walk two miles without its
tiring me, and am doing all my work.”
If you are all run down from womanly
troubles, don’t give up in despair. Try
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. It lias helped
more than a million women, in its 50
years of continuous success, and should
surely help you, too. Your druggist has
sold Cardui for years. He knows whaB
it will do. Ask him. He will recom
mend it. Begin taking Cardui today.
