"MONKEY COATS" WORN
BY ENGLISH WOMEN
Has Long Tail. Which Drops from the
Waist to the Ankle of
the Wearer.

Much interest Is shown in London in
a queer kind of jacket which its satirists
have named the monkey coat The
cognomen gives many people happiness
in phrasing witticisms, alleged or real,
anent the modern apparel of the strug-
Cling sex.
Passing that by. the fashion is to be
seriously considered because it is likely
to reach these shores at any moment.
possibly before this story goes into print.
So much happens. by the way, between
the writing of a fashion and its print
ing, that the task these days is nerve
breaking.
This monkey jacket takes its name
from the long tail of material bordered
with fur that drops from the waist to
the ankles of the wearer. One of the
remarkable models is of bright. dark
green velvet bordered with a band of
skunk; the tail of cloth and fur is not
attached, but is cut in with the one-piece
back width, and extends over the skirt
to its hem, and is weighted at the
pointed end.
The skirt is of green broadcloth with
a six-inch band Of skunk at the hem.
The bodice is of whit. chiffon, open at
the neck in a deep V and finished with
rufie OF lace dipped in tea. This COM
bination of white and tea color Is one the
smart woman delights in.
Other long g-tailed coats are OF brocade
with a glimpse of bullion In 1t. and fur.
The new peltry. known as Russian chip
munk. goes well in this shape. All such
jackets. made OF fur, should be unusually
large. The return to slightly htted
coat that flares out at or below the
waistline is not to be thought OF In this
texture. Some attractive loose short
wraps are worn in the Russian fur. They
are cut like a cape with bagsing sleeves
that seem to be part of the fullness.
The Jwell-marked Stripes OF brown and
yellow in Russian chipmunk are suitable
to most faces, and this garment makes
the best kind of wrap for those who
object to the weight of long FUR coat
The latter Is a possession with certain
points of merit, but II cannot give much
service In the moderate American cli-
mate. The woman who rides in a motor
at all times should place her money In
a coat that Is good-expensive. but the
woman who depends on public transpor-
tatien to get from place to place finds
such a garment a waste of money unless
she Is unusually cold-blooded and does
mot mind its weight,

war the Federal government, in addi-
ton to its other manifold burdens, was
obliged to bear that of Indian hostili-
ties.
The Navajos had been reused early in
the war by the presence of contending
forces marching in their country to the
various posts occupied by the whites, and
had improved the period of unrest as
one in which to make war on their white
neighbors as well as on the Mokis and
Zunis- -.s
The Navajos, who cultivated the soil
and followed many peaceful arts, dis
trusted the whites, and rarely met them
except in battle. From their strong
places in the mountains they made war
on the white man whenever they saw
him, and usually with success. Their
greatest natural stronghold , was the
Canyon de Chelle, a mighty fissure in the
mountains north OF Pueblo. in what is
now Arizona
This had been the fortress of the tribe
since white men had known aught of
them. The canyon forty miles long, in
places no more than 200 feet wide and
in places 1000 feet deep, with no road
through it, had never been traversed by
troops until Kit Carson's command
passed throughout ii in January, 1851
Through Canyon de Chelle.
Carson was the sort of man to enjoy
such work. Fifty-three years old and a
veteran of the plains, he could read the
Indian character as most men read
books. He knew the wild country in
which he was operating, with all its
trails and Businesses.
Carson's expedition saw some pic
turesque as well as dangerous service in
traversing the canyon. Setting out from
Fort Candy on January 6. with 400 men,
Carson had marched through snow two
feet deep to reach the west entrance to

STRIKE NOTE OF
HARMONY In DRESS
Large Mufs Do Not Look Well with
Simple Tailor-mades for
Morning Wear.

II is astonishing how easily the effect
of the smartest dress is spoilt, IL the
other accessoyies of the wearer's toilet,
such as her hat. fms or wrap. are not
suited to II.
Recognizing this. the really well dress
ed woman endeavors to preserve a note
Of harmony in her clothes, and to give
the impression that everything she Is
wearing Is part OF a well thought out
scheme. says the New York Herald.
With the simple tailor-mades which
are SO fashionable for morning use just
now, elaborate wraps and very, large
nuns do not look well.
Although big muffs are quite appro-
pirate to the present style of short
sleeved afternoon dresses, and serve to
cover up the exposed part of the arm
without looking in the least cubersome,
they appear clumsy and out of plac
when carried with a tailor-made jacket.
The most effective wraps for morning
wear are stole or neck wrap and a
moderate-sized mum, Of which a great
variety Of simple but very pretty models
are to be seen. Wrap or mum should

should be matched by the toque worn
with them.

odd pieces of fur it should not be diffi-

welcome note of variety even when worn

A number of sets can he made in vel

shade Of blue. They are trimmed with
narrow strips of fur, which are either
placed crossways or used as a border
ing. The effect is completed by large
artificial flowers on the side of the toque
at the throat and in the muf.
A very pretty effect is obtained by put
ting frilis of fine lace ruches in the stole
at the neck and around the edges of the
muff
A model set in ermine is edged with
ruches OF black velvet, which form a
very happy contrast. The same idea
