almost always longer at the back than
in front End at the hem they are com
paratively wide. TO give the popular
Persian" outline.
Chez Eedfern have just seen some
lovely models intended for Riviera
wear in the early days of the new
yeal This tailor is always well rep
resented IN the terrace OF Monte
Carlo and on the Promenade des An
glais at Nice, writes Idalia de Villiers
In the Boston Globe
Nearly all the Redeem clients are
people who fit from one gay resort to
another and in the early days of each
succeeding spring this tailor sets the
fashion for the year.
So far as the new long coats are
concerned | have nothing but praise
to report They are extremely becom-
ing TO tall, slender women and when
they have been designed and made by
master hand they are models Of
smartness and grace.
These coats are made in two dis
tinct designs. In one the figure is
nodded carefully. The coats are not
exactly tight fitting, but they indicate
the lines of waist and bust very &c.
curately.
On the other hand there is favor
tie model which is fashioned almost
like a long Russian blouse. This coat
is always slightly gathered or plated
at the waist and very often these
plaits are confined by handsome belt
of embroidered leather or velvet.
With such coats as these clinging
skirts made of velvet or charmeuse
are worn.

All human experience looks back to
motherhood as the wonder of wonders.
The patience, the fortitude, the sublime
faith during the period Of expectancy are
second only to the mother love bestowed
upon the most helpless but most marvel
GUS creation-a baby.
Women are quick to learn from each
other those helpful agencies that aid to
comfort, that conserve their nervous
energy and yet are perfectly safe to use
and among these they recommend
Mothers Friend"
1t Is entirely an external application
designed to lubricate the broad. fiat
muscles and skin that protect the
abdomen. 1t has been in favorable use
for nearly half century and is known
to mothers in almost every settled COM
munity in the United States who highly

drugs and yet it's influence in the skin
and muscles beneath as also upon tho
network of nerves beneath the skin is
very beneficial, very soothing and
wonderful help. The muscles expand
