The Latest in Mems Coats

The mans coat which bids fair to
be most popular for fall and winter
is the three-button sack, says the
Dry Goods Economist.
1t has soft-roll lapels and a fore
part with no haircloth for stiffening.
The average length is 301s inches,
with or without vents. The cuffs,
for the most part, are turned over
for an inch or SO.
A few coats with patch pockets are
seen. The better grade clothing is
silk-lin and while not as service
able as mohair such a lining wears
well for a season and adds to the
style of the coat.
The coats most in favor are cut
close to the form at the waist Trous-
ers are shapely and of medium width.

Renovating a Felt Hat

Ammonia and water will be found
excellent for cleaning felt hat. A
little cold water should be put into
a saucer with a few drops of am
rnonia added. With this the hat
should be sponged thoroughly after
being well brushed. Then thick
cloth wrung out of cold water should
he placed over the hat. which should
be ironed with a moderately hot iron
!. u 1t is dry.
Pulling the cloth away will raise
the nap and unless very old, the hat
will look almost new after this treat

When Father Comes In
Dear Miss Doom

"A" claims that when a young
lady receives a young man and her
father joins the party, IL shows bad
taste on the part Of the father not
to wear a collar and tie, and is
more or less embarrassing to his
daughter. nB" claims It does not
show bad taste. Please let me have
your opinion as early as possible.
DOROTHY W.
A great deal would depend upon
fathers disposition and the size Of
his shoe. II objections were offered
he might be seized with an impulse
to assist the young man to depart,
with the aid of the toe of said shoe.
I'd let father suit himself, If / were
