CcSSSs
Rough-surfaced stuffs of mixed colors
rival plain smooh clothes in the street
gowns imported for autumn and winter :.
Boucle cloths have soft curly loops of
black mohair as glossy as silk on loosely
wogen grounds of bluet, dark red, green,
or brown. Zibelline and feecy camel's
hair have tufts of rose or cerise on
checks of two shades of brown or gray,
or else light blue on black and :green
blocks. Coarse boureette threads are
effective on plaids and stripes of darker
shades. Bluet and brown are loosely
woven in basket squares and fecked
with tan color. The trimming for these
stuffs is velvet, sometimes of the pre-
vailing color. but more often of the color
last used in the fabric, thus accentuat-
ing the contrast.
Ladies' Goth with smooth glossy sur
face comes in very striking colors, the
new bluet. cerise and other purplish red
and bright green among them, which
are often made more snowy still by con-
trast in color being used for the velvet
collar. Thus a sage green cloth dress
has collar of mauve velvet, one of tan
cloth has bluet collar and a cerise cloth
is also topped off with bluet velvet.
Sleek mirror velvet is preferred for these
collars, which are cut bias in stockIike
folds, and are much trimmed on the
sides with rosettes or punches of box
pleats, or else swallow bows with point
ed winglike loops that reach up TO the
ears
Chiffon takes new lease OF favor,
and, homogeneous as it may seem, trims
cloth gowns.
Those who like quiet colors will adj
mire gown of black cloth with skirt
bordered with gray chinchilla fur an
inch wide on the pelt The full round
low and straight across front and back,
and pointed deeply on the shoulders.
This yoke is gored TO take the collar in
one piece with it, and is edged top and
bottom with the gray fur. The cloth
below the yoke is oddly pleated, and
striped diagonally with insertions of
open cord gaIloon over gray satin, CIV
ing the effect OF swathing the figure.
Points of this trimming placed diagon-
ally on the skirt appear to continue
those of the waist. Mutton-leg sleeves
of the cloth have also dagona, stripes of
black over gray. The belt is two narrow
folds of gray satin made over lining
belt, separate from the dress, and fast
ened in front by buckle covered with
the gray satin, and expanded by two
loops that form a large bow.
A refined dress of chocolate brown
cloth has lighter Suede CO lored cloth
border at the foot, strapped with the
chocolate cloth cut in bands and ap-
pliqued in curves. A separate vest OF
the Suede cloth is worn under very
stylish coat OF the dark cloth with light
revers and applique bands. II arper's

call Ieger duvet. OF. in plain English, the

Is rather a distinctive matter of pride,

Indication Of self reliance without as

When Rome was in its ''most high
