Separate Spring Coat.

A GOOD many women are wonder
ing what they are going to do
about II separate coat, to wear over
their onc-piece frocks. when spring
comes. The heavy sport coats are all
right in their place. Indeed they are
delightfully."- appropriate for sports
coats. But their rather clumsy roomi-
ness and shaggy texture make them
seem unsuitable for afternoon coats
Some of the shops are already show
ing charming little Jackets of taffetas
or brocade to Wear over light frocks
One is made of deep red taffeta 1t
is of cutaway Sty!e, reaching most
to the hips in back. buttonng over the
chest in front, but cut sharply above
the waist line Another of stmber-col-
ored brocadc is a little longer, and
loose about the waist. buttoning over
on the left side.
Whatever their shapes. all these little
jackets are dainty. But they will af-
ford just the warmth, and just the
look Of warmth, necessary sometimes
even in summer. To be sure. these lit
tie coats are rather Impractical for
tn" woman who puts her clothes TO
hard use. But they hold the promise
of something more durable and useful
by and by-a separate silk coat that
