THE COACHMAN'S "TOPPER"
Variety Hat Styles
Hat styles are of abounding in terest and an infinite variety.
Many of the revivals may bej short-lived, but at the moment the coachman's "topper" is taking a leading place, and women are dis.. cussing the wearability of a style that is certainly very striking.
It is at its best in hatter's plush, the shiny silken fabric of which masculine hats are made, and the approved model Is finished with a near band and how of black gros- grain ribbon.
TUNIC INFLUENCE IN JACKET SUITS
The tune influence has made it- self felt in the jacket suits which are always such a feature of the Stiebel collection. Most of the blouses and jumpera are cut on tunic lines, fitting well down over the hips. A navy blue tunic was worn with the suit made of navy and white tweed in a very large, square, broken check design, the jacket of which was finished, with ja shawl collar of nutria, which crossed in front like a fehu, the narrowed ends being attached at the waist below the arms.

Button Length
Lastly, a little point about buy- ing long kid gloves. Often people know how far up the arm they want the glove to come, but do inot know how to order them to that length. The correct way is to order them by "button length." This is measured from the base of the thumb in inches, so that a 16-button length glove, for in- stance, would be 16in from the base of the thumb. This is a very simple way of, ordering and makes errors Impossible.
