Woras That Rsnkle,

A charming young actress stood
alone in the foyer Of a local theater
the other afternoon at the close Of a
rehearsal. which had been a very try

The words" said the actress as her
eyes flashed. ARE leading lady! That's

Tut. tut. Forget rehearsal and re

And the youthful actress smiled

Satin separate coats are among the
fashionable garments Of the hour. and
long may their vogue continue, for GER
tainly never has there been a material
which has proven eminently satisfac-
tory Not only are the all-silk qualities
of the fabric immensely popular for the
semi-fitting, full-len9th and severely tai
lored coats worn during the day. as well
as during the evening. but the wool back
satins are largely employed because they
afford so much more warmth than the
liberty weights. Ii goes without saving
that the wider the material the more

mode is that such a coat may he cor

The dressy cloth coat, whether or not
designed to accompany a special skirt. is
in any of the popular types-empire. direc-
toire or continental-and may be trimmed
in many different ways. On some Of
them are placed black or matching satin
bands. deliberately soutache braided, on
others fancy and soutache braids are en-
plOyed together or separately. and again
there are broad and narrow bands of
wool lace dyed to precisely match the
tone Of the material.
Cabachons and Olives.
Cabachons and olives of extreme size
are employed on all of the more elabo-
rately trimmed separate coats, the olives
being generally of heavy silk cording or
of crochet work and in matching hues
with the other trimmings, while the caba-

suggestive of beauty in sleeves, and yet
the style to which the name is given is
a most graceful one and certain TO be

the simpler type of evening coats as
well as those made up of coarser materi-

The feature of the kangaroo sleeve is the
fullness which is afforded underneath the

Slashed Sides
Since the sheath. skirts have had SO
marked an effect upon outer garments by
making the majority of them less vou-

an advantage in the case of long coats,
many of which are made so narrow that
to walk in them comfortably would be an
impossibility were it not for the openings
which start either just below the waist
or the hip line. A majority of the ulsters
have these open sides, but they are an al
most general feature of the scant box
