FUR AND CHIFFON CLOTH

NEW YORK, Sept 7.-Althoueht
we are by no means through with
hot weather the question Of coats
and wraps is again rising in the
mental horizon OF the feminine world
Last spring, with the fondness for
semi-princess dresses. came the need
for some kind Of an extra garment
for warmth, and so we began to see
many varieties OF topcoat The
sports coat, so-caHed, seemed TO
prove more than shadow Of COM
ing events, for travellers reported
them as appearing on railroad and
steamship lines. Then the mid-sum-
mer heat settled down upon us and
the forvor Of affection for top-coats
waned. But evenings In August arc
sometimes cool. and vacation days
give opportunity for little trips to
mountain resort or seashore. and so
the coat is once more TO the fore.
The sports coat, I'm particular, is JUS
tifying its existence. II is easy 10

fulncss yet neatly helted in at the
waist with a belt of its own material.

smart. II is made OF rough-and-
ready woody mixtures, Of chinchilla.
Of the thick French cloth called peau
de Mouton, or sheepskin. which II
undoubtedly resembles, and Of the

warm, shawl-like reversible cloth of
which many of the long coats worn
last winter were made. AS TO its
color. that is as varied as the taste
of the wearers. Very smart are the
black and white checked ones, the
plaids or checks being fully a half
inch square. Red ones are much

Most attractive are the young

white dresses. White ones are. Of
course. often seen. too, and are con-
sidened very chic. especially when
worn with black dresses. Gray ones.
and those made Of the large black
and white checks, are for travellers
and for useful purposes generally.
These look best with the darker taf-
feta or foulard semi-princess dress
which has practically superseded
the shirtwaist and skirt of the for
merly well-beloved coat suit.
A gown markedly suitable TO wear
under a shepherds plaid sports coat
Is illustrated in figure l. This is a
lightweight mixture suiting. Of a
kind which does not wrinkle easily
and withstands the hardships of many
outings. The pleated skirt is always
a. good model for a dress of this kind
because one can move about i'm It
more freely than in the narrow
sheaths in which we paraded last
year. The blouse Is very simple but
made smart by turned-back cuffs and
the Robespierre collar with its lace
'friil. The objection to this collar,

'sition after a short wearing, is over
