Monte Carlo Coats.

Some very short Monte Carlo coats
are made for the young. They are
jaunty and pretty, made short in the
back, with the fronts reaching little
below the waist line. Such coats are
almost universally laid in folds, the
upper portion only being fastened.
White lace in hundred different ways
Of application decorate them, and one
may use all sorts of medallions or 9TH
er shapes of trimming.
There is a real cult for tatted deep
collars to wear over the shoulders. and
hand crocheted lace is at a premium.
Indeed there is a great demand for
the latter, and it is used on skirts.
waists and coats. Many new patterns
of this durable lace are now designed.
SO that it does not resemble the old
fashioned kind.

that he gave certain information to
