Winter styles in coats must soon
make their exit in order to give the
center Of the stage to evening wraps
and to coats for spring. But they are
not going to slip away unhonored and
unsung; they will pass out amid
hearty applause. The last efforts Of
designers are as interesting and note
worthy as those that ushered in the
season, and just as our minds were
made up to expect nothing new along
came such examples of fine artistry as
appears in the two coats pictured
above. They are unsurpassed for
beauty and smart style.
The victory Of the allies and the end
of the war was the signal for the re-
vival of evening wraps. They will
come in for much consideration. and
already splendid garments reflect the
mood Of the public, which has denied
itself the luxurious wraps Of pre-war
times. Following these, the first show
ing in coats for spring will compel
the attention of everyone. In the
meantime whoever is not already out
fitted in coat may take advantage
of the impressive last models for WIN
ter.

then the mans voice in angry alterca-
ton.
He was talking to the woman who
had opened the. door. She looked
about five and thirty years of age, and
her face, distinctly visible against the
light in the hall, was well-bred, if not
attractive. She seemed one of those
cosmopolitans who frequent the capt.
tai; Mark was still uncertain whether
her house was one Of those residences
that are still occupied in this district
by the original owners, or whether she
was the mistress of one of those gam
bling establishments that flourish of
necessity along the avenues of the
earlier alphabet.
The man seemed to be pleading with
her, his gestures were growing fran
tic. He looked about five and forty
years of age; his face struck Mark
with a certain odd familiarity, though
he had never seen him closely before,
and bore traces Of breeding, blurred
either by dissolute habits or by mis-
fortune.

velvet or silk velours apparently. 1t
is paneled at the back and at the front
and adjusted into semi-ftting lines by
means of narrow plain sash that is
lOOped over at the front, having rather
long ends. Large, handsome crochet
covered buttons are set in the girdle
at each side of the back. Deep set-in
pockets at the sides are finished at the
top with band of the material edged
with a piping. This coat is dark
taupe color with cape collar and deep
cuffs of taupe fox fur. 1t is as rich
looking as q coat of moleskin, having
much the same appearance.
The coat at the right is of very
heavy wool velours and is a marvel Of
ingenious cutting. The shaped side
bodies are extended with wide hanging
panels Ornamented with narrow tucks
and a border of sealskn. Small slit
pockets finished with arrow heads are
set in the panels. The graceful cape.
which is convertible into high muir
fer collar, is of sealskin. Both coats
are shoe-top length. A favOrite color
for heavy wool velours coats is deep
and soft plum shade with which seal
skin looks unusually we'll.

1t was ON that night that Mark felt
at the end Of his powers.
1t was early, he had dined and was
sitting disconsolately in his apartment;
nothing seemed of any value to him at
that moment, and his thoughts were
Had it been necessary that he should
have treated Mrs. Howard and Ell

He put on his hat and went out,
meaning to pay them a visit, or, at
least, to walk toward their house while
cided by the time he reached Massa-
chusetts circle, and, as he stopped in
doubt, he saw a man across the road,
staring up at the house.

was obviously watching the house, and
he meant to stay there.
But, as Mark started toward him,

1t soon became clear that the man,
although he looked like tramp, had a
definite objective. Mark pursued him
toward Pennsylvania avenue, until he
discovered that he was nearing the
least desirable part Of Washington,
whose location, so near the residence
of the chief executive, has always been
the wonder and scandal of visitors.

 Lovely woman may be Q screaming success at tickling the worries" Her delft, fingers and musical ear may call out of the interior of the most mani mate piano harmonious syncopations and send the lover of grand opera or jazz music into the seventh heaven of musical ecstacy. AS a housewife she may be harmony herself-although this isn't always the case. She may be able to pound" the most stubborn type writer with certain degree of har- mony, and on the shining dance hall floor she may glide in full accord with the turing music of an old time waltz.
 But when 1t comes to putting accord into a discordant piano-well. that s an entirely different matter.
 The national convention of piano tuners seriously, though harmoniously. in convention at the Hotel La Sale, has agreed that lovely woman as a piano tuner is everything but a 'hoWling suc- cess"
 Only male and white" piano tuners will be admitted to it's membership, the convention announced as it's memorable verdict.
