Coatees a New Feacure
in Lingerie Dresses

Nowhere is the American idea Of
directness more strongly felt than in
clothes. Paris offers wealth Of
ideas and America selects one. After
weeks Of hesitation, while the popular
ity Of one style or another in the price
less collection received after peril
GUS trip across the Atlantic, quakes
in the balance, the American public,
at last, places emphasis on one chosen
feature and the coatee dress becomes
universal; not tailored creation as
the name implies, but sheer confec-
tion of lace, net or batiste, topped with
gay silk or lingerie jacket.
So cavalier have fashions become,
they carry us back to the Cromwellian
era. Like spirits Of the old French
empire, society in lingerie dresses trips
across the velvety lawns or loiters in
old rose gardens. The other day, /

smart black and white effects, the

clocks at the sides of black flowers.
So extreme have the stockings be-
come, that some well-dressed women
are going back to pure black, especial
ly with the white dresses, as they
claim the contrast is more striking.
Thewhite buckskin or black patent
leather and white kid tie or pump is
favored with the lingerie dress, al
though such combinations as white
buckskin and pale blue or pink uppers
are shown in fancy models. One pump
in particular has the pale blue upper
and an American shield in pastel col
ors placed in front where the buckle
belongs.

Hats, too, conform to the new lines
in dress. Large French sailors, tilted
on one side, daily grow in favor; satin
and chiffon facings are being used on

WIN q OaTk blue Six COaLee
A vivacious dark-eyed Miss, who
served tea at the glass-topped table,
carried off well the style of the smart
coatee in a frock that bespoke the
couturier Jenny. The bodice of allover
embroidery, nipped in at the waist as
fashion approves showed from be-
meath the jaunty jacket of dark blue
taffeta silk. The Quakerish collar and
cuffs of white organdy made con-
Meeting link with the billowing folds
paneled with embroidery and trim
med with Valenciennes lace, which
formed the skirt.
That she was a devotee to the fad
Of fancy shoes, one could easily guess,
for her pumps were the last word in
style; the heel, back and vamp was of
patent leather and the uppers Of white
kid to match the white silk stockings.
Beside the low chair, garden hat
carelessly dropped, glistened in the
sun, for it was one of the new dark
blue shiny straws. The crown was
circled with tulle with pond lilies be-
meath and, like all other broad -brim-
med garden hats, it had black velvet
streamers attached to the back; these
sprawled on the grass as if they were
tired Of their voyage through the
wind.
The guest Of honor, an artist of
fame who is making the best of a war
enforced exile, was a credit to the
maker of the clothes she wore; what
could be smarter for a woman passed
thirty than a symphony in black and
white? Again the coatee was the
chief detail Of the costume; this time
it was short Zouave jacket Of ex-
quisite batiste, heavily embroidered
It opened as she lounged in her chair
showing waist Of plain batiste
Flouncings, repeated in the sleeves
and skirt yoke, and lower skirt Of
plain batiste, cut circular that it might
flare the more, needed only the black
and white, blazer striped, girdle to
bring out its style, so perfectly was
every detail worked out.
The skirt cleared the ground by
about four inches; mature women have
all adopted this length as more be-
coming than the extremely short skirt
Below the skirt a trim white buckskir
tie laced in black could be seen. Hel

FAKE cLAIRVoYANTs EXPOSED

Despite the newspaper stories ex-
posing so-called clairvoyants, these
fakirs annually reaped fortunes as
the result of their activity, Now, Ka-
lem has produced two-act drama,
''The Clairvoyant Swindlers," which
shows how these people victimize
their dupes.
All the moss-covered tricks used by
fake clairvoyants are exposed. The
messages from "the other side" the
reading of names, the mental tele7
pathy "stunts" and other fakes of
this nature are shown in the course
of the story.
The crooks are rounded up by Ber-
tina, a clever sleuth connected with
the police department. This role is
enacted by Marin Sais, one of Ka-
LENS popular leading ladies. 1t is
safe to predict that "The ClairVoyant
Swindlers' will open the eyes of peo-
pie who have allowed themselves to
be hoodwinked by fakirs of this
stripe.

LET WAR HORSES GO.
The Sooner Kansas Farmers Are Rid
of Them the Better.

Manhattan, Kan, March 25.-The
buying of a large number of Kansas
horses by the warning nations of
Europe will not cause a shortage OF
farm power, believes DR.. G. w. Nc
Campbell, assistant professor of ami
NAL husbandry in the Kansas State
Agricultural college. The war horse
and the efficient farm horse, declares
Doctor McCampbell, are two distinct
types
The war horse, weighing from 1000
to 1900 pounds, has been responsible
for much of the inefficiency of farm
power. The fewer war horses left
upon the Kansas farms, the better off
the Kansas farmer will be. 1t is the
type of horse adapted to war that has
always caused the low prices in the
horse market, because the demand for
world is practically gone. The sound,
brought the higher price.
II the people who think that there
will be shortage of horses to oper-
notice the type of horse that is being
exported, says Doctor McCampbell,
they will find that it is not the farm
horses that the European countries
are buying but the medium-sized war
horses. An increased demand for the
heavy draft horse will result when
the small horses have disappeared.
Now is a good time, believes Doctor
McCampbell, to get rid of the small
horses, as there will always be a
strong market for the draft horse
while the market for the small horse
is becoming smaller each year.
