y The Demand for Block TOPCOATS for Women and Misses is due to the smartness of their modes—the beauty of their lines—their good tailoring and fine fabrics. These are features of not only the fine coats— but even those of modest

cost.

Coats at $15.00 and $18.50 Coats of gaberdines, shepherd checks of different sizes, poplins, s e r g e s, tweeds, etc.—full or half belted. Though they are, in the main, loosely fitted— great variety is gained in the cut—and in the clever collars

and cuffs—black, blue, new browns and gray mixtures, $18.50 and The Coat Pictured at $25.00

is a careful copy of a Premet model— It may be regarded as a fair example of the exclusiveness and smartness—that is the charm of Block coats. Made of checked velour, the collar may be worn high or low—and the smart flare below the waist—the pockets— and the general air of the coat greatly appeals. $25.00 is little for a coat so fine! —Second Floor.
