when she says IL can't be explained, it's
just woman's way. She says she

why she does it. "Imogene" says there

Coat for Spring

To the EDITOR OF womdn's Page:
Dear Madam-As am a daily reader
of your paper, I am coming for the first
time for advice. / am going to get a new
spring coat and hat. Would like to
know what color or style you would
suggest for girl five feet tall, dark
brown hair and gray eyes. What is the
most popular color for coats this spring
NJ. /.
One of the most popular coats for
spring is tan or creamcolored polo
coat, trimmed with narrow bands OF
leather. OF course, there are coats of
all colors and descriptions and it really
depends upon what color Is most be-
coming to you and what you want to
use the coat for. II you want it for
daily wear to an Office or anything of
that kind, the polo coat would not be
suitable, as the light color would show
the dirt too quickly. Dark blue or
brown would be better, and think
either Of those would be becoming to
girl Of your coloring. The style also
depends upon how you want to use 1t.
For everyday wear a simple style with
q rolling collar, belt and big pockets
would be the best. But for more dressy
wear a more elaborate coat would be
better. Shorter coats are to be in style
this spring, and fullness is still good.

COMMONS DISCUSSES SUPPORT
 OF IRISH REPUBLIC" IN Y. &

London, May 6.-The subject of the support given to "the Irish Republic" bv some persons in the United States came up in the house of commons today. Hora- tio Bottomley asked whether the gov- ernment was aware that appeals for subscriptions for bonds addressed by De Valera as president of the Irish Republic" were still appearing in Amer ican newspapers and were supported by the governors of the various states. and whether Great Britain proposed to make representations on the matter to Pres ident Wilson.
 Mir Bonar. Law. replying Tn behalf of the government. said 1t was understood that such appeals were still appearing in certain American papers. but he was not in position to say whether they were supported by any governor. Great Britain, he added. was not pre- pared to make representations.
 Mir Bottomley asked whether Mir. Law had seen the announcement that already 100000 pounds had been subscribed to this fund and that triumphant proces- .sions had gone through the principal streets Of the United States in celebra- ton of the event and that De Valera had been entertained by state governors He asked if MT. Bonar Law did not con slider that in international law this amounts to an unfriendly act and wheth- CT new instructions would be given to the British ambassador.
 The government leader said he had not seen a statement of the specified facts named but it did not alter his View re- garding Great Britain's right course namely. that it was not always wise to take action to which a country had the legal right.
 Captain William Wedgewood Been wanted to know whether the government would take steps to halt the malicious campaign which. he declared, was des. troying the friendly relations between this country and the United States Tc this Mir. Ronar Law did not reply. Robert Burton Chadwick asked whether Mir. Bonar Law was aware that ''this outlaw was recently honored with tht ! freedom of New Orleans and whether any representations had been made tS the United States in the face of "thi. deliberate insult by an ostensibly friend | ly power"
 Mir. Bonar Law answered that he wal quite satisfied the good feeling of tn, | United States was not represented at al l by such demonstrations and he did no | believe that any action the British gov l ernment could take against them woult
 have any other effect that to make th' relations worse.
