Which, at' the aame time, has all the .charm of a walking dress. Notice the arrangement of ribbons to front. The hood can, if it 1s" desired, he slipped entirely over the charming little "topper" and then these. ribbons tied in place around the face., ' The little picture shows a back view of this same coat and rereals how the hood falls when not In use. The last photograph Is one of the hood coats with the hood m place. This .Is one' whole combination coat, shaped somewhat like a suit. In this climate it Is true that only occasionally do you hare use for hoods in walking, but when you do need them you need them badly. On the other band, these garments are wonderfully adapted for motoring or for any outdoor sports in Winter. As In. all of women's clothes, there Is a determined effort toward lndirldu ality in the coats of the season. No longer is a coat simply a coat to be , thrown on as necessity demands look ing like ten thousand other coats. It is a creation something that, while useful,v must also be "beautiful, and, as I have aald. indlrldual.

Lady Dutf-Cordoa Pam ettabluhmenl brtaca hit into clote touch with that centre of fashion. - r Lady Du5 -Gordon's American ettab lithmeots are at No. 37 and 39 Weal Fifty-eeventh street. New York, and No. 1 400 Lake Shore Drive, Chicago. and deep cuffs of bearer and; pompon buttons to match at the neck' and on the wide belt Next, a bottle green velour-actually dispenses with fur altogether,' its high collar being kept in position, high about the wearer's chin, by two big amber buttons, and the belt taking the quaintest one sided curve in front, after having been carried in a high point al most reaching to the collar at the back. To make up for this deprivation, how ever, another model of dahlia purple velour measures no less than four and a half yards at the hem, and Is there' bordered with a twelve-inch band of seal musquash. "Some" trimming, this! And "some" bill to be paid by the woman who eventually owns and wears it or the husband who "owns" the wearer! . j . A quaint scheme there is, too, In a coat of purple velour, which Is deeply bordered at the hem -with a band' of seal musquash, though its .encircling career Is divided and disguised at the sides by a wide, loosely hanging panel of plain cloth, beneath which the waist ' band la also passed. Cuffs and collar. .'V too, there are of the same adaptable snd . satin-soft fur, which is put to final and effective use for the making of pompon ' buttons. - by the way, the same model' looks well in soft green velour and mole fur. Another and quite pleasant possibility for the woman who wants or is rather, compelled to be economical is the coat of ponyskln cloth, which is such a real-', istto and, incidentally, raln-reslstlng substitute for the actual fur, skunk or opossum being generally used for Us trimming, and being its worthy match,' alike in effectiveness snd economy. ' '. '" Then, as regards the fur coats, their ' very latest and most decorative devel opment Is a full length and, of course, full skirted affair of seal musquash,' which shows the somewhat uncommon contrast of the gray squirrel In the high collar and the wide banding at the hem, a narrow belt of the soft gray fur being also introduced at the side seams and fastened in front. .1' A broadtail model gives further proof of the new favor for this very sensible ' and smart length, which, in addition to being more protective. Is also more be coming to the average figure than the ' full three-quarter coats, which display" a few , inches of skirt, also full and 4 short and by this same "cutting" make the least, instead of the most, of the' wearer's actual Inches. In this case and . coat the contrast fur, for the trim- mlng Is a silky, soft black fox, which : forms a flounce above the hem, and also a curious and very pretty collar carried high up at the back and sides, and then curving sharply, downward in front, where, however, the broadtail is but toned closely up to the throat.

B., M. A., M. D. WHEN a doctor Is unable, to put the blame upon the true Inwardness of , a .disease, he often .tells you' the patient Is "only nervous," has ' "neurasthenia." ' Is "neurotic." suffers with , a ' "func tional nervous malady.". Is afflicted with ."nerves" or "Imagines" things. 1f you go to twenty doctors,, and tach In turn tells you that 'your ail ment Is something of .this sort, then, say I, go to a twenty-first or even a fiftieth ' until you find . a physician who Is capable of telling you hon estly . whet Is actually . the .' matter with you. , . . Socrates set the pace for such arelesne. when he said, "See one promontory, one mountain, on ses. one river, and see all.". As a mat ter of fact, there, are no two things alike under the sun, and individuals, like diseases, all differ. There . are), however, .many , real maladies of the nerves, brain, and spinal cord. Each, moreover, has a name far more exact than the words "nervous." "neurotic" or "neurss-. ihenlc " Many doctors are . like ' Juries. Thev. ignore the foot-rules snd yard sticks, which are at hand to, give a precis measurement of a brain or nerve disease, and Instead, use some Inaccurate standard, such as the length of your arm or the first Joint of the thumb.' In other, words, it a man tells them he is sane or Is nervous. .they are keen to agree with him Instead of applying the meas urements which .knowledge has Ihen Recently a , paranoiac demanded to be taken fro man insane hospitsl and tried before a ' Jury ss to his sanity .

But the Jury said he was sane and ' set him free. . Three days later the "sane" man killed a mother and her three children. This Is not unusual. The popular opinion ' Is that a person must be either "peculiar," ."ecce n-trlc " In .a. , fine fremy, msnlacs.1 or melancholic," to be craiy. ; , . ; 8trange ar It may seem, the most', dangerously insane persons ' do ' not have their intelligence disturbed' a bit. The hidden, unspoken delusion of vengeance upon unknown' or strange persons is nursed, arranged snd directed with the skIII and fore thought of a great executive. David ' . Oraham Phillips snd President Will Is m McKinley were shot by, such msnlacs. Real disorders of the nerves, how-. ever, cannot be so successfully con-.' cealed as lunacy. The ' difference between the doctor's guess' that you' are a "neurasthenic" or' '.'bundle of nerves" and the actual affection of nerve tissue Is open '.and above . board. ' True Injury to the nerves Is shown by twitching of the muscles. There may be tremors when the muscles sre in motion or when at rest. There are flblllary waves over the tongue. There Is a tendency' of the eyes to be crossed or one eyelid to droop more than another. The eyes may be .abnormally bright or dull. The handwriting exhibits vibrations and oscillations. t Light flashed Into the pupils of the eyes falls to contract them. Park-: nes has no effect to make them dilate. If a crack across the front of the knee fails to make the leg Jerk, .It means serious changes In the sense, nerves or -the bsck of the spinal cord.

But many of the alleged "nervous Bttacks," neurasthenias, and the large host of so-called neurotic and . t.iiaalnary or . functional nervous disturbances have no more .to do with the nerves, brain and spinal ' cord than they have to-do with the bone or gristle. Such maladlea are caused by chemtcsl substances, . one of which Is called dl-lodo-dlhydroxy-indol. Just discovered by Professor Ken dall, the physiological . chemist, as the source of activity of the magical thyroid gland. - When these chemi cals from the thyroid.- thymus, ad renal and other of the many human glands flow too freely or too abun dantly, or, on the other hand, too slightly, odd feelings and surglngs.' overpowering emotions rush Ilka torrents upon the senses, and you, . sre undone and not yourself until1 Mhey are corrected. . , This new discovery of Professor , Kendall, who Is the laboratory man at the great Mayo brothers clinics. .Is expected to , lead very shortly to the Invention of chemistries that: win not only cure doctors of wrong ly blaming the nervet- for so-called "neurasthenia." but will also cure the victims of these emotional de?:' . rtngements.
