six and ten inches respectively of the bot
tom. around the sides and across the back
OF the skirt.
The coat Is tishtitting and has three
seams In the back. At the sfdes-perhaps
four inches below the waist line-the skirts
are laid In four baekward-turning plaits.
The coat closes with six large buttons in

Where the crepe of the robe overlapped
