Eolienne has a place among coat mate
rails this season, but wolfe, fave in coat and
skirt costumes, has los: favor with the coat
makers. The silky eolienne lends itself
readily to the flowing lines Of the loose, full
coat. whether short or long, and is a ser
vioeable material though on the whole,
a taffeta coat is a better investment than
one Of eolienne, even IL more expensive

Of course warmer than silk for midsummer
wear and soils more easily than silk. White
cloth with Irish crochet Is popular, and the
chsmpa Rne tints and their successors-
known by various names but resembling
what was last season called champagne
color-are well liked in combination with
heavy lace OF embroidery OF linen.
The light onion browns, too, are shown In
some Of the smartest coats Of the carriage
or evening class, but this color, although
its vogue Is evidently TO run over from
winter 70 summer, il not Univer sally be-
coming and needs relieving with consider
able white or cream il it Is not to look hot.
The light silvery gray greens with a dash
Of cream-light olive tones they are gener-
ally called, though they have much more
imposing names-are selected for some
silk coats, relieved by cream batiste en-
broideries and valenciennes or by heavy
lace, and these same tones are seen in cloth
carriage coats, but the color needs the
sheen Of silk to give Il coolness.
The pongees are successful coat ma
teriRls but are little used for dressy coats,
being reser we'd rather for travelling, driving
and motoring. Some most attractive mo-
tor coats in shantung are offered, tailored,
heavily stitched and depending upon their
cut and severe details for their cachet.
Mohair motor coats, too, are numerous
and pTact ical and some good motor models
