NEWNAN HERALD NEWNAN, FRIDAY, OCT. 1. IMPORTANCE'OF THE TOP COAT. For Dress it is Developed in Velours de Laine and Velvet, i'or Sports Leather, and Novelty Fab 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, ' llcr.ia ■: ^ l 1 fy 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. THE BELTED NORFOLK. TWO ADAPTATIONS OF THE FAVORED 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 Your Body Protests Against Calomel You have noticed the disagreeable 1 effects of calomel, that sickening nau sea that is characteristic. There is no reason for tearing up your system in such a drastic manner. Liv-Vbr-Lax, that wonderful vege table compound, is just as useful as cal omel for toning up your liver and rid ding your system of stagnating pois ons, and it does not make vou feel bad ly like calomel. It is pleasant to take, with no unpleasant after effects. Keep it in your home for health’s sake. If Liv-Ver-Lax is not entirely satis factory, your money will be returned j without question.

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.
