FASHIONS DICTATES
FOR FALL WRAPS
Handsome Ones For Even
ing Wear, Tailor Made
and Auto Coats.

q
The wise woman does not wait for
cool weather to assert itslef and then
rush around and buy the first coat or
wrap her eyes fall upon and take any
thing that will fit her. She takes time
by the forelock, thinks out what she
will need, looks over her wardrobe
sees what can be fixed over and de-
cdes upon what she wants new. The
middle of August is none too early to
do this 1t is the best time Of the
year to pick up goods for making your
jackets and wraps and never were the
counters so flooded with silk remnants
that are adapted to Innings Of these
garments.
Despite the influx of new models
the Elton jacket has held its own in
popular taste and for some figures it
is by far the most becoming model
that could possibly be worn. Despite
the fact that predictions announce
THAT long sleeves are to come, they
have not really yet been seen. An
eton jacket is always in demand. It is
both serviceable and smart and 1t
means a bit more protection than the
more fanciful models. 1t is adapted
to all seasons and materials and for
the girl whose figure is well rounded
and long wasted it is always recon-
mended. 1t shows the figure to best
advantage.
OF course the mandarin, kimono or
irr1t~,.e et1o,-o ie .,6,.xy 1n-f0-6nfp and
the eton with these sleeves as. in cut
one is bound to show this seasons
mark upon it, 1t does not give the
warmth that the tight sleeve does, but
lit has many practicaA advantages, in
asmach as it can readily be slipped on
over lingerie dresses with fluffy sleeves
without musing them. These separ-
ate Etons are best evolved from plain
materials, but they can be trimmed
quite deliberately and lined with bright
silks or figured foulards, In fact, you
, can change the whole effect OF
model by the way you trim 1t, and
each person should spend time enough
to find out just which way it Is most
becoming to her features and figure.
An extra overgarment in the shape
of a sinart-looking tailor coat Is al
: WAYS wanted in the wardrobe Of the
we'll dressed woman. The Chesterfield
coat which, by the way, can be made
In hip or threerquarter length, Is 9
. rod model. as shown in ctit three. The
. hdme sewer can do this coat If she is
= clever about her pressing and stitch
ing. but IL she is a novice, afraid tc
do big things, then it Is Nbest left II
the hands of the professional Severa
! years ago these coats were almost al
, ways made Of covert cloth, but thai
! seems to have been superseded by
l much smarter-looking materials-fol
instance cheviots in broken plaids OF
novelty cloakings. These coats are
, suitable for travelling or for storm
4 coats. They are seldom lined, al
/ though 1t can be done if preferred
The popular model Is the three-quar-
ter length with the seams bound, bu'
: if you prefer 1t lined, then match the
/ goods in a heavy twilled silk or sof'
4 satin. Under no circumstances get a
figured lining for this style of coat
nor should it be of contrasting color
A tailor-made garment should never
assume to be dressy in any sense OF
the word The palmer it is the smart
err This coat should always have
, full-length sleeve, for you wear i
i only on undress occasions.
For the woman who goes out mucf
a in the evening, or for the young miss
;: lust entering society, nothing is more
= In demand than the mandarin coat fol
: these occasions. 1t is so practical ant
q SO extremely pretty, as may be seer
bv a glance at cut two, that am sure
!, it has come to stay. The model Ii
also adaptable for afternoons, driv
ing, motoring, etc. Enough really
could not be said In its favor, as 1t Il
= extremely comfortable, protective ant
4 attractive. For the girl Of small purst
n who wants handsome evening wraI
! this can be made in cashmere which
q is coming back into favor, and lnet
Il with dainty foulard. The front
could be trimmed with batiste galloon
and YOU would find yourself possessed
of q really DeduIllu1 WI dP' va ~
elderly woman who wants large
g loose wrap to wear driving or even
g ings. II should be made up in a light
e weight broadcloth or heavy quality o
g silk, lined with a lightweight silk
IS and trimmed with passementerie O
j. Persian trimming in dull, soft colors
3, Here is also an opportunity for tn
n woman of nirnble fingers to braid tn
strips for trimming. A white Goa
+ with strips braided in tiny gold sou
: tache braid, lined with yellow, !
% stunning; copper brown cloth, braid
J" ed in soft shades of brown, is very at
,r tractive. and should be lined with sill
of tan shades. Another extremel
IS new and charming combination is
al pale gray coat, braided in silver, lin
g. ed with gray and white dotted foulart
This particular model has very wild
70 possibilities as it can be made of al
h most any material. 1t, Of cours
rt largely depends upon to what use 20
h expect to put the coat For roughe
wear il could be made in lightweight
ut panama cloth; it will always look we
n, in broadcloth, and it could be mad
ly beautifully Of brocade If you care
invest that amount Of money in
