Autumn Coats’ Tendency to Flare BY MARY MARSHALL. The way to keep warm nowadays, according to the preference of most well dressed women, is to wear warm coats. Winter and Summer, Fall and Autumn, lingerie varies not.” It is not a half ounce heavier in February than it is in August. With many women frocks are not appreciably heavier in Winter than in_Autumn. Always there are certain frocks that we carry over from onme season to the next, wearing them until they wear eut or are out of fashion. Our coats alone vary accordinz to the temperature. In warmest Summer we wear a coat of georgette weighing almost nothing at all. On cooler days in Summer there are coats of satin or crepe. For ! Autumn and Fall there are coats of kasha and other light-weight woolens. Heavier woolen materials fill the bill for cooler days, and in severe weather there are furs and leathers. That at least is the fashionable way of the day. The sketch shows one of the new Autumn coats—made of velour de lain€ in the new dark_wine color | known as Black Prince. Black Prince Is the name given to a lovely rose of | deep, rich red and it is from this rose, | very popular abroad. that the colol Black Prince is derived. It will be | one of the best liked among colors for | Autumn street wear—though it is not in danger of ever growing common place. The coat is trimmed with chin- chilla fur. Somewhere about all of the new coats there is some sort of a flare. | This is necessary to accommodate the fullness that is to be found in almost all the frocks. Sometimes this flare #prings from the hips, sometimes it is | introduced by means of flaring side pieces and sometimes it starts from ihe shoulders at the back. giving the coat a slightly flaring line at the back, while the front hangs nearly straight. Lanvin's name has been identified with this style, but Mol , neux is another dressmaker in Paris who has made use of the idea, and he has made some charming Autumn coats of this sore—most of them to be found accompanying a frock of match- ing material. However, there is often just enough fullness in the front to give opportunity for the “wrapping” that is still dear to the heart of some. The vogue for velvet will have an effect on coats for Autumn. Interest- ing are some of the new coats made of kasha lined with kasha in_different color. The day when hard-and-fast rules can be drawn concerming the current mode in linings is passed. Fur coats are lined sometimes with velvet, and velvet or cloth coats are lined with soft furs; heavy woolen coats are lined with silk to match the mate- rial of the frock beneath. Some of the new coats are made with detach- OF VELOUR DE LAINE IN THE EW DARK WINE COLOR CALLED BLACK PRINCE, THIS EW FALL COAT SHOWS THE NEW FLARED SIDES XD 1S ;l"_gh\h\lED WITH CHINCHILLA of silk for warm to be able linings—one weather and another of wool used on cooler da (Copyrighi What Tomorrow Means to You BY MARY BLAKE. Virgo. Tomorrow’s planetary aspects are not adverse, nor can they be inter- preted as favorable. Rather are they benign, indicating a desire for relaxa- tion and absence of worry and a gen- eral contentment of mind. There will be experienced no great urge to “go to it with vim and energy, and any new venture that requires either the one or the otber should be postponed some more propitious occasion. | The day is in a sense a day of rest | for the mind, and the mind needs it just as much as the body. The pre- vailing influences will especially favor your home and family relationship and will engender the emotions of af- fection and appreciation. Do not at- tempt to hide these feelings. Let | them have full, sw A" child born tomorrow will be in-| herently and constitutionally strong | and vigorous. In a physical sense it will “flourish like the green bay tree"” and attain its majority without any disturbing ailments. In disposition it will be rather reckless and always dis- posed to take a chance, regardless of the consequences. It will be daring, Loth physically and mentally; impul sive. quick to anger, although just as | quick to smooth down its ruffled | feathers: affectionate but jealous and | loyval and exacting. It will display much aptitude for all outdoor sports, but will at no time neglect study for play. It will make friends very readi- | Iy and always be willing to help others in_their difficulties. If tomorrow is your birthday, vou are not, from a material point of View, brilliantly successful, nor in any sense of the word can you be classed as a failure. Your mind is inherently unable to grasp a situation quick! and your whole mental attitude be- speaks slowness of action. You are meticulously careful and painstaking, slthough lacking in originality of thought or in creative power. The signs denote that you are better qualified to fill a_subordinate position than one that calls for executive abf)- | corresponding space: ity and direction. Your ambition s not very great, and you are quite contented to drudge along and are not fired by any keen desire to rise to the top. In your home life you should be ideally happy, as your contented spirit enables you to be thoroughly satisfied with “things as they are™ and pre- vents vour longing for change and ex- citement. Your loyalty is unques- tioned, and your affection is deep rooted. Well known persons born this date | are: Robert W. Vonnoh, artist: Wil- liam E. Griffis, educator and author: James R.

I asked Tom Balley, the-world's best dancer and handy man at dinner parties. “She’s as pretty as a pic- ture, and yet she never gets a rush at dances. Most of the 'time she's sort of desperately gazing at the stag line to see if there's any hope of a cut-in at_all.” “Too bad about Cynthia,” com- mented the blase young man of 24 Summers. “She's a peach as to scenery, but a lump of lead when it comes to the light fantastic. “But she looks all right,” I pro- tested, “I've watched her often, and she doesn’t seem to be missing any steps. It's not as if she danced-like Jeanette. Poor old Jeanie just sort of staggers around the room, trying her best to follow, but getting sadly muddled in the process. Cynthia fol- lows all right.” \ Yes,” admitted Tom. “She can fol- low, but Lord, who wants her . to? I'd just as soon she didn't follow, as to have her clumping around with me, so that I feel as if I were dragging a 200-pound weight with every step. Honestly, one dance with Cynthia gets me tired out. Poor Cynth’ she wants to have a good time—und no one will ever tell her just where her trouble lies. If she knew that the reason the stag line stood aloof was because she was so hea on her feet and theirs, she’d probably do everything in the world to correct that fault.

Every so often Buster Bear visited the big tree in the Green Forest which he knew contained the summer’s store of honey of Busy Bee and her relatives. Those visits were useless. He knew that. He knew he couldn't get at that honey. But, just the same, he had to go around there and look at the tree every so often, and when he did stand there looking up at that tree how he did long for some means THE LIGHTNING FLASHED AND | THE THUNDER CRASHED. of getting at that honey. His tongue would hang out of his mouth and the water would drip from it. Yes, sir, it would But it was useless. Strong as he was, he couldn't tear open that tree to get at that honey. He was over there one afternon when it began to grow dark very rap- idly. It wasn’t time for the Black Shadows to come creeping out from the Purple Hills, but it grew dark even faster than had it been time for them. Buster had an uneasy feeling, an uncomfortable feeling. It became very, very still there in the Green Forest. The only sound to be heard was the constant calling of Stickytoes the Tree Toad. “He's calling for rain and I gues he is going to get it,” muttered Buster, sniffing the air and swinging his head from side to side. Not a feaf stirred. It grew still darker. Long, deep roars of thunder | warned that it was going to be a bad | storm. Buster hurriedly turned and | | shuMed away toward a certain ecave | |deep in the Green Forest—a cave | | where he would be dry and safe and comfortable.

The wind twisted branches from the trees and blew some trees over, and altogether it was one of the worst storms_that ever had visited the { Green Forest. It was no wonder that |even big Buster Bear was frightened. | With his head tucked under he couldn't see the lightning, but he could hear the crashing of the thun-| der and the smashing of the trees as they fell, and it seemed to him that this must be the end of everything. You may be quite sure that he for- got all about Busy Bee and her honey. He actually whimpered. One tree fell ‘right across the entrance to Bustel IGHT CO. Two-inch continuous BEDTIME STORIES BY THORNTON W. BURGESS cave. He squealed right out when that crashdd down. But the little people of the Green Forest, and the big people, too, for that matter, forget their troubles as soon as they are over. The storm pagsed. Buster could hear the thun- der rumbling and rolling, but 1t was far away. It had stopped raining. Bus- ter promptly decided to go out and see what had happened. But getting out wasn't g0 easy. That tree that had tallen across the entrance to his cave had made him a prizoner for the time being. It was only by tugging and pushing and digging and working very hard indeed that he managed to get out. When at last he was free he set out to see what had happened elsewhere. Everybody else was out for the same purpose. And plenty had happened. Yes, indeed, plenty had happened. In one place a whole lot of trees had been blown over in one heap—torn right up by the roots. That was where the wind had been at its worst. It was what is windfall. Buster looked it ove: may be useful by and by,” said he to himself, and went\on his way.
