Motoring Coats II Necessity.
The term motor coat applies nova
days to almost any long, voluminous
sleeved garment of practical material,
whether not it be actually rain or dust
proof, though of course, no wardrobe Is
just complete without a natty weather
coat of Sill or satin, mohair or covert.
Such wraps are used for driving In town
or out, as a daytime covering for rather
elaborate gown that is worn on the city's
streets and for the general wrap of the
woman who passes much of her time in
the country. 1t is also the travelling wrap
par excellence in these days when the
feminine tourists garb is as carefully
considered and almost as elaborate rs
that worn to a fashionable church we'd
ding.
High Hat Crowns.
Although many sky-scrapfng head GOV
erings are to be seen, these millinery ex-
tremes are scarcely likely to be adopted
by women of acknowledged correct taste
in sartorial matters Such women usually
cling to the path marked "modera don"
and travel cheerfully along its safe course
conscious that there is nothing about
their attire to call forth comment from
the vulgar or the critical. Nevertheless.
signed is to certain extent towering
but in many instances it is made so sim
ply by the arrangement of the trimmings
which are piled upon the crowns In
punches and wreathes and In exaggerated
semblance Of the pompon.
Feather Clusters.
On the better grade of hats, such as
are worn with elaborate tailor made, os-
trich and bird-of-paradise plumes wave
in clusters of feathery richness IN a man
ner lead the casual observer to believe
that the recent financial stress was an
evil dream and that the days OF pinching
economies are over and done for good
ostrich feather Il paradise plume, how
ever, Is quite as safe an investment as q
bit of good lace, for they may be used
at any season of the year and for a small
sum be cleaned, curled or colorod. Scraps
of ostrich feathers may be made over
into one really handsome plume or form
the basis of q pompon whose outstanding
spirals may we'll be composed Of the clip
ped ends of the passe paradise birds tail,
Much Marabout Used.
Quantities OF marabout are employed as
trimming for elaborate hats, and, al
though rather more costly than wings and
flowers it is far more practical than os-
trich plumes for seaside wear for if tenn

Long, Straight Lines.

Long. straight lines rejecting the Greek
idea of feminine drapery are brought ont
prominently in tailor -mades as well as in
house dresses Of all kinds, and the posi-
biIity of SO following the classical fea-
lures Is wonderfully advanced by the
suppleness of fashionable fabrics. Con

much latitude Is there now In respect
to the cut OF skirts, the shape of coats
and the length Of sleeves that within
certain limits a woman may wear what
ever most becomes her particular type Of
good looks. All women have a certain

Importance Of Street Suits.
or all feminine costumes none is so

worn upon the street. These are of two
distinct classes, although both are care
fully tailored, and whether plain or elabo-
rate, inexpensive or costly, the most mi
