There doesn't seem to be more than one
way to answer any of these questions.
The skeptics may refuse to believe the

The all-enveloping topcoat that
really goes all the way down to the
shoetops has range of usefulness
beyond any other garment. 1t al
lows the greatest latitude of ap-
parel for daily wear, for whatever
you want to put on you can slip
your coat over it and be per-
fectly dressed for the street. Spot
clothes are perfectly hidden and
delicate afternoon and evening
frocks quite protected, and you
can go about in car or bus
as suitably dressed as if you had
on a severe suit. Now that the
vogue for dresses has to a large
extent supplanted that for the
waist and skirt for indoor wear, a
long coat makes it possible for you
to use your one-piece dresses all
winter. The model illustrated is an
especially good one. having straight
lines and very tailored effect and
at the same time being long and
ample enough to cover any frock.
1t is of wistaria-colored silvertone
velour. The buttons are self-cov-
cred, and the muskrat collar falls
almost to the waistline in back.
The cape nearly covers each arm,
as it does not extend entirely across
the back. The back is gathered and
belted with a narrow belt at the
natural waistline.
