English slip-on coats, something on
the style OF the Balmacaan with rag

cts, are also liked by young women
for quick spins back and forth from
the club. These coats are of soft.
hand-woven Scotch homespun and
may be rolled up and tucked under a
seat without injury. The revers and
collar may be turned up so that the
coat buttons snugly about the neck.

Cape Coats Summer Whim.
1t Is impossible to say how long
the vogue Of tho cape coat will last.
Just now capes are immensely the
thing and the summer is likely to
see a-plenty of this style Of wrap
which has been seized upon by wom-
ankind because Of It's picturesqueness
The most fashionable cape-coat is a
hybrid affair, part ordinary coat and
part cape which is a little reminds
cent Of the ancient and honorable
sleeveless macintosh which used to
hang IN the back entry along with
rainy day umbrella and rubbers. A
Paris phantasy which Martial ct Ar
mand call cape wrap, Is pictured
In the model of cinnamon gabardine
which has a sort of cape across the
back, to the hips. This cape merses
SO subtly into the sleeve that II 10
hard to tell where one begins and
the other ends, but the cape erect j.
indisputable and the coat Is very
smart. The broad collar and mario"
fare cuffs of velvet lend grace ana
softness to the model and the rows
of stitching and self-oovered buttons
add to the quiet distinction OF TINS
gabardine coat from a great FrehcH
house.

Not the least interesting feature Of
this French motor costume Is the Don
