Tartan Effects.

We are fond of tartan effects at present, and a serviceable coat made on straight lines crosses at the waist and fastens by two buttons, the mar terial hanging straight below, while the finishing touch is given by. a square cut collar and revere of tartan, which goes well with the green background of the original coat. A broad band sloping across the top of the revere’ between them and the collar is formed of plain material and ornamented by a single button. Tartan faces the cuffs and forms the flap of the deep semi-circular stitched pockets. In the navy boucle cloth this style turned out with tartan is quite effective, and it is often employed when the material happens to be a reversible one, with a surface, that is either plain, mixed or indefinitely striped.
