o. u,n INC tastes than those of our nine

Nen furs of this season, particularly
ppoyenine and swell reception, mouf-
s a. stands out sharply. Mouffion has
s sUr generally an inch and half long
n ND ssyouisitely fine. looking more like
s snwr than fur. The white has natural
lemon tint on the inside part, and as the

like the yoke. One oape had THICK

very full frill Of cream lace, headed by
band of gray mouf1ion 4 inches wide
The wide, high collar was faced will

evening wear and was very beautiful.
Cbinchilla, being a close fur, is uset
quite often this winter as tight etoi
shaped jackets with sleeves of the SAM
or velvet. Seal is also frequently re
made in this style, but fur seal garment
are made like this. Seal is very dea
this season, and beaver is nearly al
gone, so that is practically out of con
sderation. Persian is not very popular
Astrakhan in the waved MORE qualit
is even better liked than it was last year
and many most elegant garments ar
made of it, Indeed in some cases entir
| suits, coat and skirts, are made of this
but it is too heavy for comfort in skirt
One pretty and useful fancy often seen
too, these cold days is the closed eto
jacket made of astrakhan. This is mad
with three pieces in the back. the seam

black silk crocheted buttons. Som
close quite to the neck. Others hay

quite all, for some have velvet sleeve
though these are few. Wherever it
possible those who wear the astrakhs
etons have a band Of the same fur arouI
the bottom Of the dress or down Il
iront side seams. and often bit is adj
ca to the hat. A very taking jacket
this style had the vest filed in wi
cnerry velvet and a standing plaitiI
Of the same at the neck. These JACKIE
narmonize with all kinds of winter m

There is another style of an astrakhl
coat perhaps more sly lish than the OF
