The accompanying illustration shows
a smart model for a long rain coat Of
medium weight cloth.
1t is of waterproof cloth of a deep
fawn color. made with half loose back
and fronts belted in at the waist, the
belt passing through slits just. back of
the pockets and fastening underneath
SO that the fronts hang in a straight
line from top to bottom.
Large cloth buttons fasten the dou-
bic breasted fronts, and the neck is
finished with a wide coat collar, trim
med with rows Of narrow black braid,
and plain revers. The sleeves are very
attractive. being trimmed with narrow
bands between the elbow and wrist
and end in turned back cuffs, trimmed
with black braid.
This coat is suitable for wear in
fair weather as well as on rainy days,
and is good model for a driving or
travelling coat.
1T might be made of any material.
but 1t is always wiser to have a long
coat made OF waterproof fabric, for
then it will serve a double duty, and
one need never fear the approach of
a sudden storm. Cravenette cloth Is
probably the most satisfactory mate

shown this spring.
They are of extremely light weight,

BY the help of such well made. ap-

woman would present to one attired in
the hideous old fashioned waterproof
or hve or ten years ago.
This is also an excellent time of the
year to buy umbrellas. for many Of
the handsomest specimens shown dur

TO make room for a display of new

partridge wood, which is dark and
beautiful: smoked ivory. oyerlaid with
