Are Simply Made.

There are wonderful evening wraps
for that daughter in your home who
is in the habit of going 10 the evening
dance, and must be warm and at the
same time well dressed.
She must not be weighed down with
heavy fur coats that hint Of more
mature styles, and at the same time
there is a great difference between
her coat and the one for the growing
girl. The demand of the debutante
has been met in the seasons wraps
which are shown in the best stores
Generally speaking, these are of
corduroy. The vale is wide, ana the
wider the better. All colors are used.
White, biscuit color, American beauty,
blue and brown are the shades that
have been installed in the affections
of the young women who are whiriing
to the theater or the dance. There
are many exquisite models worth
noting.
One white coat is made on a loose
line with large sleeves and a trim
ming OF corduroy at the seams. The
material is corduroy, and a soft panne
velvet collar forms a dropped hood at
the back. The coat is nearly full
length. and has a lining of pale blue
brocade with two ample pockets. The
white corduroy dry cleans well, is
warm and has a festive air that girls
love. 1t ought not TO be difficult for
the home dressmaker to make one in
a short time.
American beauty corduroy in a soft,
wide vale is a beautiful material for
a wrap that is vivid in shade, but not
too bright for the young social butter
fly. The model that is favorite is a
long wrap, trimmed with skunk fur,
that forms the high wired collar and
the cuffs and edges the fronts and bot
tom of the coat. There is an extended
yoke, which is edged with a cord of
black. Buttons of this cOrding form
the decoration in the front of the
coat, at the same time fastening it
close around the body. The coat is
lined with the same color in brOcade
and has pockets trimmed with quill
inS of black ribbon.
A royal blue velvet coat is made in
the quaint empire pattern. with a short
waist and a circular skirt that hangs
in ripples from the bust line. The
high line is emphasized with band
of brown fur, and this trims the rolled
collar and the deep cuffs. Fur but
TONS fasten the bodice.
A military coat is of golden brown
and is trimmed with chamois- colored
/ broadcloth. Gold buttons are in two
rows down the front, and gold cords
are looped across the front in true
military style. There are buttons at
the back, and the coat is lined with
yellow brocade. There is no doubt
about its being for evening, yet ii is
practical and stunning and simple.
1t is excellent for all-year-round wear.
Black velvet is not at all too somber
for a young woman if it is trimmed
with strips of rhine left from
mothers old set. The high collar Of
model OF black velvet has a narrow
edge of ermine. The long, full
sleeves have narrow cuffs of the fur,
and tails are wound in circles around
white and black cords and made to
ornament the front as buttons. This
model is lined with white satin. There
is a high waist line, and a circular
skirt is the simple cut of the rest of
the coat. Ample protection is afforded
| by the high buttOning and stock
| collar.
