Raincoats seem to get gayer and moro attractive every season. It does not seem long ago that the first mackintosh appeared in bright colours, and yet big strides have been made since those days, when amac even if scarlet was still a rather dowdy and ungraceful

To-day velvet, linen, crêpe de chine, and leather have been press ed into service to make coate which are as chic na an overcoat or an afternoon frock.
One good piece deserves an other," is the advertising slogan of the makers of "Jacobean" glass. It is a good slogan because it ex- presses exactly what the purchaser of the new table glass feels.

White rubber is used for two other coats. One is thin and lighti and has bands of pink ou collar and cuffs, and the other, almost as thick as leather, gains great chie from the crenelated bands of bright green leather which trim collar, cuffs and front.

THE VOGUE FOR CHECKS
AND SPOTS.
Checks and spots figure in most of the latest designs for printed silks, but not plainly and unadorned. Patterns are arranged in squares, or contain spots as marked fea-

Olive Oil For Lean Arma. Too-lean arms (and this is nearly always the trouble with really un- lovely ones) can be helped to a nice plumpness by a little massage, pre- ferably after the bath. Warm olive oil is the best medium for massage. Just a little of the oil in a cup, which can stand for a few moments in a basin of hot water, and then a gentle rotary movement all up the arms, gradually-from wrists to
