The loose back coat is another style. Even collars are in imitation of grown-up styles, and modified flares, military collars, hood effects and shawl collars are promi- nent. Sleeves are of various kinds, including the modified kimono and the sleeve set on at the slightly dropped armhole. The fabrics are similar to those used by women. Trimmings of plain and striped velvets are for cloth coats, as well as furs and imfitation furs. Fancy buttons and braids play a prominent part in the trimming of children’s coats. l FASHIONS FOR THE CHILDREN | bt Designers Have By No Means Over- looked tie Little Ones—Choice of Materials Is Extensive. Many of the children’s dresses are made in middy style, laced up the front and finished with a sailor collar. Others are in Norfolk style, and still others in bolero effect. The Russian dress and Oliver Twist dress are in high favor. In two-plece dresses the waist is usually of one fabric and the skirt of another. Plaids, checks and stripes combined with plain fabrics are well liked. Besides serges, gabardines, checks, stripes and novelty worsteds, wash fabrics, such as ginghams, per- cales, chambrays, linens, crepes and other heavy cottons are used. The long-waisted effects prevail, with the skirts in plaited, shirred, or tiered style. Dresses having front pan- els, with sashes starting from the sldes, are pretty and new. Party frocks are of fine organdfe, batiste, net and lace. Formerly all that was necessary in regard to a child's coat was that it should be made of a good wearing ma- terial and fit well, but now it must be strictly up-to-date in style. Coat styles for women and children are closely ; related. This season, for instance, the ' cape effect, so popular in women's gar- | ments, {8 equally popular for children. Cape coats of all sorts are seen, ranging from the short shoulder cape to the garment that falls over the sleeve. Some coats have capes that button on, so that they can be re- The newest cotton crepe s a very fine close weaving, resembling fits more expensive sister, crepe de chine, and the ratine—or sponge cloth—is al- so finer and closer than that worn last year. DBoth come in a large range of colors, of which at the moment pink is extremcly fashionable, ranging from the palest blush to the deepest rose tints, also light or dark Pekin blue, mauve, mastic and dove gray. They are made up with plain skirts, double tunics and smart little coatees or bod- ices, and the sash is always a notable feature, often black, with embroidered ends finished with the new grelot fringe. Artificial Roses Are Smart. On the very smart taffeta frocks, ar- tificial roses are used, either to catch up the skirt to the back of the collar or below the ceinture. This makes an original variety on dresses which might be otherwise somber. old reliable staple colors, dark blue, brown, gray, and the dark reds make the best choice for children. The capes are lined either with plain mate- the professional contractor or the et inconceivable that it should be devel- amateur builder, oped in so many variations of shape and combinations with other gar- ments until the fact was apparent. Now we have long plain capes cover- ing the figure, half lepgth and three- quarter length capes (some of them in combination with other wraps and nearly always detachable), and others that are ghort and psed as p touch of style on coats, So that thé cape ay be accepted and “ggd in any way the Individual chooses. p A pretty cape for a schoof &irl is shown In the picture. Such a simple garment is easily made at home, and nothing could be better for the cool days of autumn and the long Indian summer. This cape {8 made of a rather heavy woolen fabric in a fancy weave which looks like a wide wale cheviot. Any of the standard woolens are appropriate for these capes, and we shall see them in serge, broad- cloth, cheviot, Scotch mixture, home- spun and various novelty weaves.

St g FIRES which Caused the Loss in the United States in ¢ recent year Millinery Which Reflects the Season 'ND-of-the-summer-millinery,for those who are able to indulge themselves in hats which illustrate the seasons, is shown in greater variety this year than ever before in the memory of the most observant of milliners. The poet celebrates the coming and going of the year in verse and women note its passing seasons lovingly in their ap- parel. Three exquisite hats are pictured here, one of them from the most re- nowned establishment in Paris, and the other two, in every way as excel- lent, originated in America. They are especially appropriate for wear at the end of the summer and through the coming fall, In the first hat a straw shape is decorated with a very heavy ribbon lald across the crown and tled at the left side at the shoulder. This ribbon is very heavy and soft. There is a wreath of velvet plums with velvet foliage and small white berries about the crown. This hat may be developed in several colors, but in bronze or purple shades and in bronze-browns will be found most beautiful. The second hat is a combination of straw braid and velvet which may be developed in any of the rich and quiet colors now fashionable. It is remark- ably simple in design. The round crown is covered with velvet, and the outline of the brim 18 emphasized by a Freach fold of velvet put on with imes.

The third hat is a straw shape faced with chiffon in black. It shows the movement toward wider brims and picturesque shapes. Its trimming con- sists of a spray of autumn flowers, posed in the bandeau and upturned brim at the left side, and a similar spray at the right. The chrysanthe- mum or the hydrangea or small fruits, with foliage, may be selected for this model. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Let us Save you Money On Your Next Suit The Hu The Home of Hart Schaffner Marx Clothing Putting On, Taking Off. Do not forget the old rules for put- ting on and taking off gloves. When putting them on, do not try to get the whole glove on at once, but first work on the fingers, taking care to have the seams fit exactly even at the sides; draw the glove over the hand and then put in the thumb, but leave the seam of the thumb down the center. Re- member that a glove once put on ‘wrong can never be stretched into the right shape again, so it is well to take the little care at the start. JOS.
