The coat is double-breasted, with
four large, fancy buttons, two of them
serving for fastening, at the front. An
other button, at the top, provides a
means of fastening the coat up about
the throat. The model hangs straight,
with exceptionally long waistline, as

For general excellence and all-arOund
wearableness nothing ever surpassed
the coat of covert cloth. 1t is a sturdy
aristocrat among coats, and therefore
returns to us each year along with the
robins and other early promises OF
springtime. Its color and texture and
stability give it an assured class and
each year is good style in designing.
Coatmakers understand that designs
must harmonic with fabrics. Coats of
covert cloth are cut on smart lines and
depend on them, and on the highest
standard In workmanship, rather than
on novelty or the use of adornments, to
bring them recognition. Machine
stitching, buttons, straps of the mate
rial are the recognized tailored means
of embellishments.
The covert-cloth coat shown in the
picture is long, falling within eight
inches of the bottom edge of the dress
skirt. A narrow belt of the cloth is
Topped over at the front and extended
in long sash ends, as concession to

seem just the prettieSt of all ways OF
finishing them and there are any
number of frilly models to choose
from. Small flowers and fruits and
narrow ribbons in velvet or satil in
trimmings that set close to the shape
are very much at home on hats Of this
kind.
More often than not, the flowers or
sprays of small fruits, are set close
against the sides of the crown in hats
of this kind. But the model shown in
the picture is one of those in which
a wreath of tiny leaves with occasion
al small roses, wanders about the
brim, finding the crepe frills of all
places, the best in which to rest.
The side crown is slashed to allow
short lengths of ribbon to be drawn
through it at four places. The ribbon
is brought to the base of the crown
and turned back into a single loop
with an end that extends to the edge
of the frill about the brim. The hat is
made of silk braid sewed in rows to

New Test for Color Blindness.

A new and accurate test for color
blindness has been devised in Sweden
and is described in the Upsala
Lakareforenings Forhandlingar by
Drs. @. G.. Bostrom, G. r. Gothhn and
III. J. Ohrvall.
1t is made with q chart on which
are evenly scattered patches of color,
all very much alike and of irregular
outline, showing the white background
between them all. They are light
and q dark reddish lavender and
dull cherry red. The dull red patches
are arranged in such a way that they
form large figure three or six, but
as these are exactly the same tone as
the lighter lavender it would be impos-
sible to distinguish the figure unless
one was certain of the difference in
tint between the red and the laven-
der.
The figures are to be spoken aloud
as read.
