COAT SUITS FOR
SPRING WEAR.
Style FaVOTs Hip Length and
Wide Turnover Collars.

According to latest fashion Informal
tion the newest thing in coat suits is
described thus: A narrow skirt with
practically no flare at the hem and
with the straight side seams stitched
in two laps. one of which is cut out
and crossed over the other at the
depth of eight inches from the edge
of hem.
The coat reaches just little below
the hips, has wide turnover collar.
which reaches half way TO arm, and
long, wide revers. which run well be.
low the bust. The fastening Is at
the waist line and is decidedly double
breasted There are three large satin
buttons and three knotted loops of
heavy silk cord.
The novelty in the cut of this coat is
the use of peasant top. which in
cludes the shoulder and sleeve cut in
one. This top reaches to the bust in
front and to the shoulder blades in
the back. 1t is joined to the lower
part of the coat by a narrow strip of
black satin, to which the two edges of
cloth are stitched This method of
cutting resembles bodice with a
yoke, yet the straight lines from
shoulder TO hem are maintained and
the effect is good
The sleeves in the jacket reach to a
tri1e below the elbow, are straight and
rather small and finished with wide
turnover cuff of heavy venetian lace.
This material is repeated at the neck
In wide turnover collar. which is laid
over the larger one of the coat fabric
The suit is of foulard. which the
French tailors are using a good deal
instead Of serge or linen. The model.
however. can be copied in any Of the
lightweight materials and will look as
well as it does in silk. One would
not wish venetian lace cuffs on lin
en- or serge suit, yet they could be
substituted by satin or striped silk.

Curls hanging at each side of the

During the civil war one little Incl.

the dry wit for which General 2ubal
A. Early was so well known. After
General Sheridan had been pressing
upon the Confederates in the Shenan-
doah valley for nearly the whole sea-
son General ROsser was sent from the
Army of Eastern Virginia to General
Early's assistance. General Rosser's
men had been doing brilliant service
and were so elated with their various
triumphs that they had adopted the
laurel leaf as a badge and allowed
themselves to be called the Laurel
brigade"
When these valiant warriors came to
the disheartened soldiers in the Shen

andoah valley they spoke with ease
and gayety of the short time it would
take them to clear the valley of the
troublesome Yankees and have every
thing their own way.
Strange to say, however, In the hrst
engagement sheridans troops drove
the Laurel brigade back and chased
them fully twelve miles at most an
mated but disorderly gait.
General Early made but single
comment upon this circumstance. and
that was when he encountered Gen
eral Rosser a day or two after the
fight.
II say, Rosser,s he remarked slowly,
''hndn't your brigade better take the
grape leaf for a badge? You know the
laurel isn't a running vine. Z" Youths
