Capes Are Dolman In Eject and Fur

The woman who has selected her early
winter wrap must be of the new variety,
decided in character. and gifted with a
spirit Of contentment, for else she would
go cold while making up her mind which Is
handsomest of the bewildering array. and
which best suited to her STYLE.
OF course, the cape predominates. You
couldn't possibly expect anything else as
long as women put whole bolts of dry
goods in sleeve and puff it out with a
paper mill. There is a change in the capes,
however The ripple cape, so graceful and
popular. has had it's day, and it's sun speeds
to its setting. The short ripple cape was a
CHASTITY farce SO far as warmth was con-

Ferocfty of the Alpine Buzxard.

Ferocity of the Alpine Duxxard.
From the London Spectator.
John Scherrer, hunter, shot a male lam
mergeier or Alpine vulture, and was climb
ing to the nest when the female flew up,
and settled on his back, driving her claws
in deep, and trying with furious backward
beats of the wings to drag him from the
face of the rock. The mans gun was load
ed, but he dared not let go his hold on the
rock to fire it. His attitude was for a time
that of a reversed Prometheus, the vulture
tearing his back, instead of making a meal
of his victims liver. In this predicament
the hunter contrived to shift the position of
his gun, so that the muzzle almost touched
the breast of the lammergeier, and cooked
and fired it with his foot. But in these
cases the vultGre was not the first aggres-
sor. Unfortunately the cases in which it
has carried away young infants are not
rare and are well authenticated.

around the edge, No wonder 1t is pre-
dicted that the sealskn will be costly this
winter. 1t would take a whole school of
the animals to supply skins for one cape
such as that.
AS seal is going to be scarce and high,
all sorts of subterfuges will be resorted to
to find something to take its place. Some
of the prettiest substitutes for sealskin are
made of seal plush. One in the approved
dolman pattern has a close-fitting back,
with cape-like extension over the shoul-
ders and long tabs in front, in which are
two cute little pockets. About the neck is
pretty cape of fur. with fastening of
head and tails of mink. AS will be readily
seen, this is an excellent way to utilize
ones old furs at small expense and fine
effect.

what may be done with the right shades of
red and green is found in green crepon de
sole, and dull red peau de sole. The skirt
Is made with modish flare and without
trimming, except as the green straps ex-
tend down from the waist to be fastened
with buttons. The waist is of perfectly
plain green crepon de sole, with bretelles
of the same, from under which comes a
double rutfie of the red peau de sole, which
extends around the neck in a high frill.
