HAVE WIDE CHOICE IN COATS
Not for Many Years Has There Been
Such Large and Excellent Variety
from Which to Select.

Certain short draped coats of sup
pie fur rounding away in the front are
launched by extremists, who are push
ing the pegtop silhouette, but they are
by no means graceful even for the
slender woman. and are not likely to
be taken seriously by the women in
this country.
Some Russian coats of half length
or longer button up the left front,
close on the left shoulder, and have
high, close collars finished at the top
by narrow band of contrasting fur.
A model of this type usually is loosely
belted or girdled across the back, IL
not all around. and the model. while
goodlooking If well worn, is becoming
only to the exceptional woman.
Many of the new fur coats are made
without collars for greater convenience
In the wearing CT separate neck furs.
Innings are often of the handsome
brocades, and In some of the most
luxurious garments these Innings are
SO rich In themselves that they add
greatly to the cost of the coat.

Built of cast iron, very hard, and
