ADDED elegance to good figure. But
little women, you must not try it, You
are too short to divide. and that is Just
what any half-length coat does for you.
In these coats the plan IS to have deep
pointed vest OF unfigured material and
the revers of brocade. These spread
out to the shoulder and show points at
the back, and are adorned with gold but
are pointed and much wider than
the wrist measure, while the col
lar shows slight flare. The
brocaded silks used for these din
ner coats are of every variety, OF
course, but The most elegant is of ivory,
white with silver or gold fleur-de-lis, or
celadon green with leaves in darker

The first bicycle had reached Chad

Gall right" responded Simpson;

Just at the moment the arrangements
of the wager were complete dapper
young man came up, and with a strong
arm pulled the Stats from the crate. He
took the glittering machine out, gave
its pedals few whirls, nlmbly jumped
into the saddle and was off like the wind
down the gravel road.
''Therew exclaimed Simpson, before
the bicycle had got thirty feet away,
''gimme that hat"
1t was ill-luck or pride or something
else that made the young man run into
small rock, and nature did the rest.
The machine stopped and the lider
went over into the road. When the doc

train for home old ST ard Simpson were
arguing over who won the bet He had
shown his ability to ride, Simpson said,
but the old man still declares that

elder members OF the family give them
little companionship of father or mother
or aunts, or even of older sisters; and
as, although they may have the society
of other children, they need

mature association, they are thrown

weeks nov since that unsalaried prophet
of the weather, the ground hog, came
out to reconnoitre, and catching sight of
his shadow, scampered back into his
burrow and shut the door behind him TO
keep out the frost and snow. So, ac-
cOrding to all precedent, the spring
should be close at hand, and though we
cannot yet congratulate ourselves upon
any decided modification of tempera-
ture, we may at least be prepared for it,
as far as apparel is concerned, when
happily it shall arrive. For have not

came the suitings and the high novelties

new goods appeared the artists put
forth new designs, so that even at this
early date we have models of all the
garments which we shall require be-
tween now and next September.
Among these is the spring wrap, the
dainty and dressy article which is worn
in April and May. In such wraps the

1t is a matter of regret that a reason
so justifiable can be offered for opening
the market so much in advance of
season. Goods lose much Of their charm
by being too long exposed to public
gaze: frequent and careless handling
spoils their freshness and their beauty,
and after the novelty is worn off they
are less desirable.
1t is a trying matter to decide in Feb
ruary and March just what we shall
enjoy wearing in July and August, but
we can at least select the inevitable

These desirable qualities will be

The present seasons supply of woolens
are notably pleasing as to coIors, being
less glaring than those introduced last
year. Besides, they are more dainty in
design and finish. The border idea is
still rampant upon imported goods,
from those of moderate prices to those
beyond the purSe-reach of the many.
In the decorative designs there is
nothing so new as to be striking, but
an appearance of newness has been
given by twisting old designs into new
shapes, and by introducing new colors
among the old.
