One of many separate coats, which
have been cleverly christened with a
new name-the overall" coats pic
tured here. II is made up in black and
white checked material, with ball but
tons OF gun-metal finish for it's sole
decoration. No coat could be much
palmer and few could be smarter
looking.
Plain as 1t appears, this coat repre-
sents results of expert tailoring. Its
body is set on to a round yoke, which
supports the rolling collar and admits
OF the coat being opened at the front,
or forms an excellent protection when
II is closed. The lower part of the
coat is moderately full. hanging in a
box plait at the back. The wide belt
confines the fullness only a little at
the waist line. The big and practical
pockets are valuable decorative
feature, making opportunity for addi
tional machine stitching of exquisite
exactness. The cuffs are finished with
machine stitching and the collar, yoke
and belt all bespeak the efficient work
manship that is the pride of the sepa-
rate coat.
Another model in a separate coat
that will compel second look because
of its smartness is cut longer than the
checked coat shown here, and made
of plain dark material. These coats

depend upon clever cutting for style
and becomingness more than anything
else, and are designed to suit different
figures. The longer coat looks espe.
cially we'll on stout figures, making
them look more slender. 1t manages to
narrow the appearance of width across
the shoulders and to add to the length
of the neck
The belt is placed below the waist
line and is extended at each side so
that the ends cross at the middle OF
the back and are fastened where they
terminate in the side seams. II is
marvel of clever management for the
effect of slenderness 1t lends to the
stout figure.
The overall coat is a ready-made
garment, and one may expect the best
and most satisfactory results by Sc
lecting il from the stocks which are
made ready to wear each season. This
insures the services of experts in de.
signing and cutting and perfection in
the workmanship required in making.

had not gone into a profession, al
though he made feint at carrying
on the real estate business of his de
ceased father, which really meant
looking after the family investments.
Dacre was about the only one OF
my old friends who particularly cul-
tivated me. There was a reason. /
had broken all intellectual trammels
in the opinion of my college asso-
ciates, had placed myself beyond the
select social pale by disdaining the

gaging in the detective line. 1t had

"A barefooted bride? Yes, just that,
If necessary" spoke Dacre, trifle re-
sentingly. What of it? Poor, OBJ

Three hats, typical of those that are
intended for wear I'm the heart OF the
summer, are examples of high art
in millinery. They represent the
work of trained professionals both
in their conception and in the exc
cution of the careful and difficult work
required to carry out the designers
ideas.
The wide-brimmed hat of crepe
georgette trimmed with grapes has
a low round crown of the crepe sup
ported by the lightest of wire frames.
The side crown is a broad band OF
hemp braid bound with crepe, and
the halo brim is supported by this
band. The brim edge is finished
with the narrowest OF bindings, made
of the hemp. All the body of the hat
is in a tint of pink so pale that II
may be called a flesh color. There is
a band of narrow ribbon in lavender
about the crown, and long ends of 1t
hang from bow underneath the brim.
II would be hard TO imagine a daintier
background for the rich wreath OF
grapes and leaves and tendrils that
lie about the brim. They are in deep
purplish red, in pale green, and In
shades Of the ripening grape.

departed.
There was a good deal TO think
over Briefly, Dacre while hunting in
a wild part Of the Lake Superior
country, had sustained bad fall from
a cliff-side. He had lain helpless and
isolated half of the day and all of
one night, unable to climb up the
steep incline. He had been discov-
cred by a girl whose whole appear
ance suggested some wild mountain
maid.
Her name was Elsa Warren and she
lived with her stepfather, Reuben
Thorpe, hunter he proclaimed him
self. but not averse to assisting bor-
der smugglers at times. He was a
surly. unsociable old fellow. but with
one great redeeming feature in his
warped nature-he idolized Elsa as
he had loved her dead mother. She
seemed to feel IL a duty TO remain
with the lonely. bereaved old man. In
her presence all his rudeness seemed
TO disappear. Poor, obscure as they
were. the girl had grown up commun-
ing only with nature, ardently fond
OF books. These had refined her ma.
ture. and these her stepfather always
provided, no matter how poorly his
desultory vocation paid him.
For a month Dacre was laid up at
the humble cottage home of Elsa.
near a little town named Clyde. The
purity and freshness Of his faithful
nurse had enraptured him. He made
an honest. earnest declaration of love.
Elsa had bluthed and trembled. Her
stepfather. coming in, few into a pas.

the place. The next morning Dacre
found the little hut deserted. Elsa
and Thorpe had disappeared
For a month he sought them with.
