Until really severe winter weather sets
in autumn gowns will hc worn with waist
and shirt effect rather than in coat aud
skirt fashion, that has been popular for so
long a time. However there is nothing
smarter han a coat aud skirt costume. the
skirt short ard the coat long. and this will

winter. The shirt waist costume however.
Is noticeable IN many autumn gowns. that
Is. the skirt and waist made Of the same
material. There is always a slight blouse
in the front OF the waist, but they are much
more deliberately trimmed than were the
shirt waist gowns of the summer and are
almost without exception made long.
The so-caIled novelty materials that make
their appearance every autumn are used
for these costumes. They are in variety

resemble most closely the cheviotS used I'm
