striking statements were those made

Like so many of the new coats it be-
trays ingenious cutting. There is a
pointed yoke at the back that suggests
a little cape. The upper part of the
body terminates in a long point at
each side in the front. But these de-
tails in shaping are inconspicuous. Elk
cept for a few buttons and the silk
banding the coat is untrimmed. The
model is in a very dark blue.
Besides these trim semiftting mod
els there are others with fuller lines
and cut somewhat longer. One of the
handsomest models made Of covert
and other cloths is cut to hang straight
but very full. The waist line is de-
fined by rows of shirring at each side
and by a belt across the back and
front. 1t has deep cuffs and a wide
| collar that may be turned up about the
neck.
An extreme of the flaring mode has
attracted much attention. although 1t

has a high capt collar and panels down

material. 1t flares from the shoulders

tends to hold its fullness somewhere

"a FOR THE
EARLY SEASON..

A light coat for the demi-season is
a necessity and it must be of a char.
acter to suit almost any occasion.
Whenever a chill in the air demands
1t, morning, afternoon or evening, 1t is
to grace its wearer by its conservative
but undeniably good style. 1t is one
Of the difficult things that designers
face each spring, and they wrestle
with its problems with varying sue
cess. The spring coat depends upon
its style to make it a ready seller or a
failure, in the eyes of the manufac-
turer. 1t must be in line with the mode
as to shape. quiet as to color, and an
advantage to the figure Of the wearer.
Hence there are many models.
An elegant demi.season coat of gah.
ardine shown in the picture. is lined
with striped taffeta. 1t is banded with
silk in self color, about the bottom and
at the cuffs. The small turnover col.

The body of the coat is semifttinc

the sides and below the belt at the
back hangs in godets. There is less
fullness in it at the front and from
the shoulders to a point several inches

a valuable medicine for catarrh of the
head, and in clearing and opening up
the head"
A Lincoln Avenue lady, whose name
we withhold by request, writes-''We
tried Vap.O-Rub when our baby had
a severe croupy spell. We just rubbed
his throat and chest, and he was re-

proved much more successful than any
other remedy we have tried, and we
can recommend it highly to Others"
All mothers, particularly those with
small children, will find Vap-O.Rub a
boon indeed. 1t is entirely external,
